here's a few reasons to be single.

When you significant other says yes we've been together so many years, my case 3 yrs. So in that time I think you owe me 3 yrs of no crying, no moaning, no whinning, no pms mood swings and 3 yrs of mind blowing sex.

I had the blankest look on my face for over 5 mins.

Well I already knew he was a super nice guy. I just wasnt a huge fan of his excess-flirtiness. I do like him though.


That's nice Mambo! I hope things keep going well!

I've been flirting with our security guard a lot recently. wub.gif Hmm...something might become of this.

ohh sharpie!! have to keep us updated! wink.gif

Right now Scotty is the only good thing the male race has going for it. It is not even 10 and I have been in three pointless fights with boys of all ages. Honestly!

I agree with pam, boys are stupid!

Oh wedd I had told the brit it's been 3 yrs and we've had so many disappointments and let downs I think you owe me a proper getaway for us, a wedding since our last date ended up being cancelled. And he responded with that.

Boys are very stupid!

^^^And immature. They don't grow as quickly mentally than girls do. This is very prominent in teenage boys.

Yeah, but this boy is in his 40's!
Fancy_New_Becca
^^ rolling.gif rolling.gif wedd that's gave me the biggest laugh I've had all day.

Yeah he's 40 he should know better. He was snippy with me today and I know why and I'm choosing his friends from now on and getting rid of a couple of them. I think you all know what that means.
Carnivale_HBO
^^^Ya, some guys don't get over that stage I guess!
Wedd329
Liz, shouldn't his daughter have a week off from school soon? Here in NY they are off the 18-22. Maybe his mom can watch her and you guys can get away for a day or two. Float the idea and see what happens.
Fancy_New_Becca
^^ I'd love for his mom to watch her, she tried but returned her home by the end of day one. Ms. Thang is too much too handle for her. (too spoiled and demanding) I don't know when her next break is, I think it's soon though. Maybe she can stay at a friends for the weekend. Wedd, how do you feel about babysitting? rolling.gif Don't kill me please.
I hope if i weed out a few friends things will be better, some of his friends are leeches.
emilyhcole
I hope you can get some time alone! And that you can weed out some of his dumber friends! laugh.gif
Fancy_New_Becca
I'm starting with the dumber ones first. They still have enough sense to con him laugh.gif the dumbest ones, well I'm sure they will find something shinny or a girl to keep them away once they learn the ATM is broken.

All I want really is for us to reset a date and plan all over again. I don't think I'm asking for too much.

How about we find a babysitter for the kids in Middle America? Instead of me and you meeting half way, we ship them off for a week!

Liz--Good luck laugh.gif! And no, your not asking for too much!
mambo_no_5
I'm patiently (okay, not so patiently) waiting for him to contact me. He hasnt. I do not want to be the one to reach out.

I'll keep waiting.

And waiting.

I'm going crazy.

See I don't think it's a lot to ask for as well. I guess in a mans world it is.

Mambo just wait it out a bit longer, sometimes it takes guys days to call. thats where boys are stupid too. If he doesn't call back in a week then you have every right to either forget him or call him and call him a loser. laugh.gif

So he drove me home today and we just drove around for awhile and talked. I'm kind of really hoping for another hang out this week.
No parking, mambo.
emilyhcole
I hope he calls mambo! biggrin.gif
Carnivale_HBO
I hope he contacts you first Mambo! Hold on for a little while, try not to think too much about it (which I know is pretty impossible!).
mambo_no_5
He asked me to lunch today biggrin.gif It was a lot of fun!! We might be hanging out tomorrow night but we'll see.
Carnivale_HBO
Yay, that is awesome biggrin.gif! Hope you get to hang out tomorrow!

That's great mambo! biggrin.gif I'm so happy for you!

I have to keep you updated on the problems, but I swear there is some thing called men PMS. and they say we have mood swings tongue.gif

brit isn't answering his phone. I'm in jammies and I'm not going out...why hasn't me called me back?
vbarkley
Sorry, lizzy. dry.gif
Pam_Halpert_1
well I e-mailed "him" today ( at the moment he does not deserve to be called by his name) we will see if it takes him a day or a month to e-mail me back.

I swear men have a different concept of time. ( example liz comment above)
Fancy_New_Becca
I know why he didn't call me back. He went out with his friends. His mom watched Ms. Thang and he and his friends went to some comedy show and then out. When did I finally get him? 3 am! blink.gif WTH? I expect him to tell every detail later. When we talked last night, he said I didn't do anything wrong, I went out, watched the show, hung out came home. The last 2-3 days we seem to barely touch base ya know. I'm super duper annoyed

Yup, they sure do!
Fancy_New_Becca
he's promised me a full evening of just us. I've told him that he better send me some very nice flowers as well for valentines day since last year he did a roy and got me nothing.
mambo_no_5
We didnt hang out last night, so I was mad for awhile that he hadnt called or anything. I gave up and "studied" (while very distracted) for the ACT. Then I got a phone call from him and we talked for a looong time. Its just so easy to talk to him. I'm comfortable, and it isnt awkward. So that put me in a good mood. Just thought I'd share!
Fancy_New_Becca
I didn't get my evening, I've been mad at him all day an I doubt I will get flowers. He did call me around 7pm to say not to send him paranoid text messages, he's sorry and will fix things tomorrow. All I heard was blah blah blah
prettyinpink86
My feelings for my guy friend are growing stronger by the day wub.gif. He's been so unbelievably supportive during these last few weeks regarding my grandma. When I was in the shower he called me on my cell, offering his condolonces(sp) & saying how that if I ever need anything or just need to talk that I should call him & also, he wanted to see how I was doing & feeling. Heck, even a few of my "close" friends didn't even call me or ask how I was doing. I'm at a loss of words & yet at the same time, my heart feels fuzzy wub.gif. I never imagined that a guy like him exists. All the other ones I knew have been such well, guys. His support & kind words have helped me through my darkest hours & without him, who knows what I'd be like. All I know for now is that I'm never going to lose him or let him walk away as a friend. I plan to hold onto him as who knows when I'll find another him laugh.gif. I never expected that I'd be this lucky...

brit shut off his phone today. He's testing me again and I might as well give him permission to dump me first. Men are stupid

Yeah, I agree, I don't know what his deal is, again, but he is being very inconsiderate of your feelings. Try to not answer his calls for a full day and see what happens.
Mr_Fantastic
I'm sure lots of you will agree that being single isn't so great. Strange thing is I've got a friend who says he wishes he was single. I don't know I think being in a relationship sounds great. That is if both people can be committed. Being "available" is cool for a while, but I just don't know. He insists I remain single for as long as possible(for really strange reasons. Maybe I'm not a typical guy, all I know is being single isn't that great. Oh, and anyone can feel free to elaborate or give advice.
Fancy_New_Becca
neither one of us have spoken to each other. I don't understand him at all, cause yesterday when we did talk all he wanted to talk was about he doesn't want us to take each other granted. I'm feeling like I give more than him and I whine more but yeah I do expect a lot. Perhaps, that's my downfall? I love the man, I do. Just why can't he do what I want sometimes? laugh.gif

after a quick chat on the phone. we will spend some time together in a bit. He said he still wants to marry me, but I have to promise that I will try to not make him go crazy. I told him as long as you say all this is your fault then I will try. Poor guy. I've already gave in. I hate the fact that I can't stay mad at him for more than a day or so. I always think, what if something bad happens to him. I'd never forgive myself for being mad at him. I'm such a push over. Why didn't I have more boyfriends in high school then? rolling.gif
