Well, sometimes guys make decisions that aren't totally based on beauty or hotness. (Shocker, I know.) My "one that got away" married a woman who is probably equal to me on both the hotness and the education/intelligence level. But, at the time I was dating him, I was kind of a mess -- drank too much, slept too little, got upset about dumb stuff, etc. He was not wrong to ditch me. At the end of the day, I think we probably would have been a better match for each other than we were for either of our spouses, but I was going through a weird period and I acted in a way that didn't really represent who I am, or who I would become. Anyway, I hope he is very happy with her. (And he makes a fraction of what my spouse makes, but I don't care about that.) |
Oh certainly not no ![]() |
LOL I guess girls really do go to Jupiter to get more stupider |
Only boring people are bored. |
this thread is stupid.
many of you are operating through the shallow lens of living a better short term quarantine life in a bigger and spacious home. what are you getting outside of that? |
Honey, get a divorce so your husband can be free to marry someone who only cares about whether they have a beach house. |
That never even crossed my mind. |
You sound like a mature and thoughtful person! |
Whoops, fixed that! |
Bad financial planning. |
I call the "drank too much, slept too little" period in my life college. And I was an accounting major. However, the parties we threw were out of this world WILD. |
Sorry but you're not the only one he's texting, sweetie. |
I find most hedge fund guys to be very transactional, not just in their professional lives but also their personal lives. Big law partners are rarely as wealthy and sometimes less exciting, but most big law partners are probably better family men than most hedge fund guys. Obviously there are many exceptions.
Also, while big law partners make a lot of money, they don't make enough to say "I quit, and now I'm going to do what I always wanted to do." Some hedge fund guys can do this well before they reach retirement age. |
The real fun will start when his wife's PI finds the racy selfies you have been sending him when he texts. Then, not only will your husband dump you, none of your friends will sit by you at the next PTA meeting because of your (now) public skanky-ness. |
HOW sad that you describe your marrige options by their job titles. And judge the quality of your decision based upon the home you got out of the deal. SO transactional. Did you choose based upon the men, and their potential as life partners, or their anticipated earning potential? (Sounds like your husband did not do too well either!) |
