that is true for most guys...Typically the ones who don't mind the woman has a child are the ones who were also hurt by women and have the child. At least so it was for my parents. Maybe you should try to find some single fathers out to date.

I dated a single dad once my daughter april and his daughter hated eachother one day he just stopped calling me so i guess she can scare some guys off shes a moody one.

Yeah but that's one....don't judge the rest off one. Keep trying

Oh im far from done with trying to find my "perfect" man. Im sure he's out there.

Finally! Someone who doesn't wanna give up on love b/c of rocky experiences. Usually most ppl I encounter think no one's out there for them and are really pessimistic about things.

I'm a optimistic person. Its probably what keeps me so happy.

Here's MY laundry list of flaws:

1) I have very little patience...I want things done right, and I want them done right now.

2) I emotionally hurt people unintentionally, just by being honest...I consider it to be constructive criticism (people won't improve if you lie to them, stroke their egos or always agree with them, right?), others don't see it that way.

3) I have very little tolerance for emotionally or intellectually weak people

4) I can't stand waste in ANY form (food, money, garbage bags, toothpaste, time, ANYTHING...All waste ends up being a waste of money) And I really come down hard on people who do it at my house...Even sleeping is wasting time.

5) I'm a TERRIBLE friend...I rarely keep in touch with people...I almost never answer my phone...Of course, if one of them REALLY needed something, I'd be there, but I'm just not much for hanging out and chit chatting all the time.

6) I smoke...That's just nasty AND it's a waste...I hate it...And, I'm obviously too weak to quit...I hate THAT even more.

7) I'm sometimes bitchy BECAUSE of my aforementioned impatience and intolerance.

8) I have a really difficult time asking for or accepting help, because I figure I can do things faster, easier, and better by myself...and asking for or accepting help makes me feel weak.

9) When I ask for advice, I really never take it (except when it was suggested that I dye my hair black...I would have never considered that on my own...I didn't think it was a real option, because my skin is so pale (I'm a natural redhead)...That's the only time I can remember actually TAKING advice)...I seem to only be asking for other ideas to compare them to mine, and most likely to reaffirm what I am going to do anyway.

10) I am very quick to GIVE advice, whether it's wanted or not.

11) I'm a terrible "I told you so" person, when people DON'T take my advice.

12) I expect people to do things MY way, because I consider that to be the RIGHT way, otherwise I wouldn't do things the way I do them...And, when people DON'T do things my way (correctly), I often redo it myself and/or chastise the person for doing it 'wrong'.

13) It takes me a long time to really become angry, but when I actually DO become angry...I explode, taking out everything and everyone in my path...Fortunately, that isn't often.

14) I am completely unaware of others in public, they may as well not exist, I am an island unto myself...I'm not concerned with how strangers 'see' me, or what they think of my behavior...This embarasses my mother.

15) I cannot STAND going out in the daytime, not just because the sun kills me, but because in the daytime there are TOO many people out, which FORCES me to be aware of them, and this irritates me in ways you cannot imagine...They are a complete nuisance....Perhaps, I am antisocial.

16) I never forgive and I never forget...I will continue to turn my back on someone to this day, if they hurt me when I was ten years old...I do not give second chances, I see it as a second chance to fuck up and/or fuck me over...And I completely cut someone out of my life if they betray my trust, they simply cease to exist for me...If someone who has committed a past transgression against me continues to try to have contact with me, or even come near me, I will punish them relentlessly, usually with what I say.

17) I KNOW that I have these flaws, yet I refuse to change them...(except for smoking and hurting people unintentionally, those just seem to be beyond my power)...They are a part of who and what I am.


I suppose that when you sum it all up...I'm actually, somewhat of a bitch.



OH...But, please try not to forget, I also have some GOOD qualities;)...This is just a list of my BAD ones :)

Sometimes, I can actually be sweet (believe it or not)

Same here. I think every cloud has a silver lining. And if it doesn't perhaps believing that it does will create one

Amen to that! lol

great minds think alike. :)

I'm exactly the same way. I realized this when Ron moved to dayshift for awhile, and we were shopping during the day. Drove me crazy, I couldn't stand it. I prefer to go at night, when no one is around.

Anyway, I have some social anxiety, I'm very shy, I worry about everything, and I mean everything, I have a couple of completely ridiculous phobias and I am an insomniac that stubbornly refuses to take sleeping medication. Oh and I apparently have this fear of accidentally setting the house on fire, I check the oven (when its working that is), the dryer, and the burners on the stove all the damn time. I'm better than I used to be about that now though, but still happens almost every night, I get to bed and I am just sure I left something on downstairs.

Other than that, I'm just fine. :)

A friend who is just like u described

I totally agree!

I am always worried about something,i'm never sure what...i just worry.
I procrastinate way to much and that is probably why i worry.
I get mad easy and do and say things i don't mean.
I get hurt really easy and it sucks.
I chew on things..pen caps,straws,pencils..anything i can get in my mouth.
I never say no even if its something i really don't want to do.
I hate being alone
I try to please everyone.
I drink too much coffee
I forgive too easily
I'm an over achiever,i work 2 jobs and i'm getting ready to go back to school so i can keep moving up in my office.
I spend too much money.
I shop because i'm bored and buy things i never use.
I have almost 300 bottles of nail polish,its a weakness
I buy more shoes than i could ever wear.
I love Mike tooooooo much;)

I also get mad and say things I don't mean.
I think being able to forgive is a great quality. I hope I will be able to before too long.
.................................................. .................................................. ...........................
I also feel sad but I can't always tell what it was that saddened me in the first place.
I have a tendency to worry too much about what others think.
No one knows exactly what's going on in someone's mind or their life, so I find it hard for anyone to think I or someone else might be weak or unintelligent.
I used to think someone was unintelligent if he or she couldn't type using proper grammar and spelling, etc. but I realize how ignorant I was for that.
I often noticed people who were losing their hair and hoped it wouldn't happen to me and it has.
I believe we all get what's coming to us. I've gotten what I deserve for my transgressions.

I decided that it's the world that is crazy and my "craziness" is mostly comprised of perfectly normal human responses to it.

all of my problems can be summed up in one sentence.....I'm fucking old...:(

Heh, No. It's a long story. ;)

Well....then its time to start fucking young. :D

I must be in the minority here....I ain't got nothing wrong with me.....I'm perfect.:D

Same here :D

Drac, I'm asking you a serious question..I know, I know...shoot me later..

Doesn't it seem like we have 10 years of perfect youth (20-30)
I mean, we make the most important decisions that affect the rest of our lives (30-80+)
In that short, infinitesimal 10YEARS: nice smooth skin, toned healthy muscles, brain functioning at it's optimal level,energy abound....
and we have kids, get a career, buy house, find mate....
and then some weird countdown begins from some clock I was never aware of.

I can not make any sense of this.
It's too fucking short, it doesn't seem right anymore.
We live so much longer now, our golden hour needs to be extended to 30 yrs. at the very least.

Your thoughts? (you are 5 years older than me, right?:D )

[QUOTE=newb;749792]Well....then its time to start fucking young. :D [QUOTE]


I do that quite often :D It's the knees, back, shoulders that are jacked up....:(

All the plumbing still works like a young stallion!!!!!!!!! ;)

I know you're perfect HOT stuff!!!!!!!!:p ;) :D

Interesting my Dear.....it seems like I had 20+ good years. Maybe it's because I was a pretty good athlete. Drafted out of high school and college by MLB teams. Passed on that and took a free agent tryout with the San Francisco 49ers in the early 80's....I've always been in pretty good shape. I still play in a over 48 baseball league and play 2 nights a week in a adult ice hockey league chasing guys half my age around the ice. I own my own General Contracting Co and build commercial bldgs here in the Dallas area. I work ungodly hours as you can tell by the wide range of times I'm on the forum. I've never been married but I think I have found that Ingrid Pitt look alike and who knows, maybe we'll tie the knot this coming year :eek: . Just built my dream home last year, a 4100 sq ft brick home. Awful big for one guy but maybe I'll start filling it up soon ;) But I have noticed my body is slowing down. 4 knee surgeries on my right knee, countless other broken bones, and being on a non-stop 18-20 hour days the last 15 years or so I can feel it. I have definely slowed down this last year......I'm 3 months from being 50 and I am feeling it. You are right, time flys by, I'm going to wake up here and be a real senior citizen before I know it :( Enjoy it while you can because it does slowly go away......
