    Better yet, keep what’s yours yours from the beginning, and no joint bank accounts.

    If she don’t love me, I know her sister will.

    I think I know what's eating Gilbert Grape here. Maybe you realized you're a simp and instead of taking some responsibility you would rather blame others, doesn't that sounds familiar buddy boy?? You probably let your wife dress you like Pinocchio and she tells you when to go potty when out in public..:D I'd be mad too, but that's not going to change your situation.

    At that point you are nothing other than a roommate.

    That's cool.. I did that 3 years and I gave her the master bedroom.. it was great while it lasted, amicable departure and no messy divorce.. just fyi it was a down economy, 2008, so that may have played a role.. No nothing wrong with being the roommate.. I like my own bed anyways..

    No matter how complex they may sound, some simpletons will only remain simple simps.

    Sorry I upset you dude. It's just a common theme here for everyone to play the blame game on why they suck. Only difference is you want to blame a woman, and a whole generation. Just excuses

    I'm sure you're bigger, badder and tougher than me, and I never get to that part of Texas, so I'll have to pass.

    I was thinking of Jennnnuy as I was reading this! Only time she stuck around is when she was washed up as a single mom, AIDS, and Ol Forrest had a fat stack of cash.

    You led by example.
    Lost mine long ago to Death. remember how, in ancient times, if you really liked a girl, you’d have to go and talk Man2Man with her father. I’ve only done that once. Back in the days where long distance calls were so expensive that we could only afford 1 hour a month. We used to write letters, work hard and save our money.

    I walked into another Man’s house to talk to him about his daughter. The whole family was there…uncles and aunts, cousins, brothers…and my dumb arse sitting there wondering if I was going to end up dead. He said to me, something that I still live by, especially when dealing with young people, “Because you approach me as a Man, and speak to me as a Man, I shall give you the RESPECT of a Man. Have my daughter home at 11.”

    I was staying at a family friend’s house. My girl came over the next day to cook me breakfast. She made homemade tortillas, salsa, refried beans and eggs and hot franks. The way to a Man’s heart…? To this day, I absolutely love refried beans and eggs with salsa.

    We weren’t together long before she died. The thing I began to notice about many of the women I met is it’s all about them. Ask a woman what does a man need. She will say P. No, I can get P every day of the week and twice on Sunday. Why in the blue blazes would I ever bring you home? “Well, I want a man that can buy me things and take care of me and …”. But what does that Man want from you? No answer. Pump and dump is her only use.

    Tell your sons to avoid nice women but to look for a kind woman. Kindness is the evidence of strength in a woman. Nice women want something from them, but as soon as she thinks she got you, the real person comes out. Like a stripper, acts really interested in you until you run out of money. Then you no longer exist. A kind woman wants nothing from you…that just who she is and she’s that way with EVERYONE. She’s a goldmine.

    “How does kindness prove a woman’s strength, Six?”

    Everyone will walk through Hell. For most, the environment will win out. If a woman can walk through Hell and still have kindness, she’s stronger than her environment. Hold on to her because you will not be able to replace her in your lifetime.
