Disagree. In my late 50s. Give me love over sex all day long. |
Lesson learned. You play with fire and you will get burned. Never try to play the master. |
I send flowers, small gifts, and lunch to my office as if they are from a boyfriend. Everyone else in the office is paired up and I do this to fit in . |
Thank you, PP!! Personally I immediately cut the bows off mine and hate itchy lace so it's hysterical that men would seek these out. |
This is the lesson you have learned. You play with fire, you will get burned.
Real men know actions speak louder than words. |
PP who plans to end their life when they are “done living” — what is your perception of “old”? You say you’re not depressed, but would you say that you don’t love life? |
a bit crazy but why not! |
He loves me more than I love him. I’m okay with that. |
I'm similar. 42, single , childless, very few friends, very little money, drifted away from some family and hold myself at a distance from other family (toxic). I will definitely end it when I'm finished. I will never have enough money to buy property or retire from work. |
Approaching 20 years of marriage and no one knows what a miserable marriage I am in. Great kids, great in-laws, great jobs, all the trappings of success. But we are roommates and have been for a long time. I feel nothing for him sexually. But I don't want to blow up my family. |
You could be my wife, so why not give me a hall pass and we could live as totally amicable roommates? |
It's not blowing it up, it's moving on. Don't keep it on life support if it's going to die anyways. If you don't make the first move, then your husband might... then he'll be in control of the process. |
Troll. No one hates puppies. |
I hate the term "ally" in the context of social issues. I'm an upper class white male who leans to the left. I recognize that I have been the beneficiary of just about any privilege you care to name and I generally wish marginalized groups well, but I give zero f*cks what you think it means to be "a good ally."
I'll do what I'm going to do, and I hope our interests align, but if you don't think I'm an "ally," that's perfectly ok. |
You guys hit happy hour together, or is it a more serious relationship? |
