[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]How do you know there "good guys"? Just because there successful, respected, handsome etc doesn't mean there not a cheating lying asshat to there wives.

My husband is probably what you would consider low quality since he's a little over weight, not a 10, nor earning 6 figures and respected by all. But he's loyal, family orieand always puts me and our daughters above himself. Oh and my daughters are very well rounded, educated and self sufficient in not needing a man to get what they want.

I would say I hit the jackpot but what do I know I married a lower middle classman[/quote]
This. I married my college sweetheart who was one of these “good guys” for many years. Then he hit his forties, experienced a midlife crisis, checked out of our marriage, and even worse, checked out of parenting. He has moved out, goes to the gym 5-6 nights a week and then socializes with his gym buddies afterward, and tries to find time to have dinner with our kids (who are not yet teenagers) once a week, but it’s hard to do because he works such a demanding job.   :roll:  I’d trade places with this pp in a heartbeat. I’m so glad she realizes and appreciates the gem she has.[/quote]
