PP again - I'm glad my DH doesn't agree! |
ayn rand: when i was younger but not really so much anymore. such absolutism in her views. definitely influenced my economic thinking though in college.
my country of origin: USA baby. east coast. |
Yeah, I have you pegged. You're a classic case of arrested development. |
haha whatever, if i would have said i was from russia you would have said the same thing and i have arrested development because i read ayn rand and moved on from her views? |
Once again, the use of the word value. And in regards to your daughter!
Your child's value is in her spirit, her mind, her creative drive. Being pretty is great, but it will only get you do far. Attaching a value statement to any of the following things make anyone suspect, in my mind- money, where you went to university, looks, possessions, or how many sexual partners you've had. All that matters are compassion, kindness, creative works, altruism, and real love. Yes, attraction is very important, but if your main attraction to your partner is looks, age, and wealth, when you hit a rough patch in life, or as you both age and health issues come up, or any number of things..... will there be a true bond holding you together? Your daughter needs to know these things, too. Your lady sounds lovely but you degrade her by giving her a "tier". Her money and looks are just external benefits, be happy for them, but she's no better or worse than anyone else... she's just the perfect gal for you. No need to be a douche about it. ![]() |
Horrible car accident scene but can't look away.... |
How come you got divorced? Did your wife get too wrinkly after she had the kids? Do you want more kids with your girlfriend, or will that age her too much? |
Well, I don't know the woman, but if she is with you, she can't be all that. |
only reason i assigned a tier to her was in response to the PP who said i wouldn't be able to find a first tier woman to love me. i know when i say 'value' people think i just mean tangibles and resume. but really i mean the entire package. you wouldn't want your bright, kind, creative daughter to get with a dullard who was mean to everyone irrespective of their mutual beauty or careers. and neither would i. like valued people, in all aspects of their being, tend to find each other. i just want my daughter to make sure she can develop into the best total package she can so she can find the same. |
ex became a sexless void. i also had my own problems which i addressed later. and many other reasons which made us long term incompatible. already have a lovely child with the new gf. |
shut up |
Well, earlier you said "and yet she loves me deeply and wants kids with me," so you're admittedly lying if you already have a child. Not a surprise. |
Real love is being self conscious about your varicose veins because you've spent your work life working hard on your feet, and your partner looks at you, sitting there naked and sad, and says, I appreciate them, they are battle scars of a strong, beautiful warrior.
Money can't buy that kind of all encompassing love. That's why talking shit about older women is shitty and why we take offense. Btw, the man that said that to me is 7 years my junior, can snag any younger lady he wants, and picked me. |
How are wanting kids with me and having one already mutually exclusive? |
And by that mean she still wants more! |
