    All you have to do is stop at the next T/A walk in the tv room and smack the biggest dude there.Nothing releases stress like whopping someone a@@ and even if you don’t win a a@@ whopping that you receive will change your outlook on everything else for at least a couple months

    I’ve had an ex take out a credit card in my name behind my back that I knew nothing about until the day I got a phone call from the CC company at work saying I owe them 9 grand and demanding a payment. A lesser man would’ve buried her for that.

    I’ll never trust another one with money.

    I’ve been married 11 years and have two daughters with my first and only wife. I can promise you there’s times both of us would have given up for sure the first while, but we neither one believed divorce was the right thing to do. Today we’re doing better than we ever have. I don’t believe there’s any woman I’d be happier with, but we still have to work at it. Love isn’t always about good feelings. A lot of times it’s sticking it out with each other because you both vowed you would, if you’re married anyway.

    I guess I’ve been fortunate…….28 years I’ve been married. Had a long hood Pete when I married her. The path I chose left me little time to sleep much less do anything else. I’ve called home blown up in Grand Island Nebraska for her to say drop it at Peterbilt I’ll be there in the morning to get you I miss you just stay home with me till it’s done. For me to say no I don’t trust them come get get me I’ll come after it with the toter. Did I save money no. Did I get rest no. But did I have the money to get it done yes. Many times I’ve not known my own finances, I realize how bad that can be. Trust that’s something you don’t find many places. We are a very opposite pair to say the least. She is educated, beautiful, very successful in her profession. I’m none of that. She has stuck to my side when anyone else woulda shagged. Was it always easy no, however we didn’t give up. It has to be equal effort from both sides. I really ain’t sure what I’m even trying to say here other than if it ain’t like that why even get married? I don’t understand

    This!!!!!!! I say the same exact thing. Keeping that under wraps is the only way you maintain your freedom.

    I took a different approach with the new girl. After that bitter red pill from the first relationship I decided simp’n ain’t easy. These ho’s don’t respect a man that is kind and considerate. So I stay mysterious with the fuel desk girl and she can’t get enough.

    You simps keep playing this captain save a ho game. I hit it and quit it. Got ho’s in different area codes. You can tell by the way I use my walk that I’m a woman’s man. No time to talk.

    I certainly don't go around running my mouth reckless calling people m'fer that's for sure. That can be hard on your head. I don't blame any one that's where your wrong, you just didn't like what you heard, simply stating facts about dating/marriage today. My dad and uncles were Boomers who were also vets, they'd say the same thing about the boomers. It's just a fact about that generation.

    They have people who will study you, learn everything about you and marry you just to destroy you. Sounds like a fiction novel, right? But all you have to say is Mike Tyson and Robin Givens. Her mom coached her on how to destroy him and take his money.

    Remember that 304 that tried to take down Kobe Bryant by accusing him of rape? Same thing. Public figures have it bad.
