Citizen Erased Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I'm not even going to mention the batgirl comment.... Um no. and no. Oh yeah, no. Ooh what batgirl comment? Wasn't being serious. But am curious...
Author dreamergrl Posted February 15, 2009 Author Posted February 15, 2009 Ooh what batgirl comment? Wasn't being serious. But am curious... Well... I think he's into like ghost and stuff (he was rattling off what he believed in and didn't believe in), and he was talking about this haunted statue. He wants to go see it. Talking as if the statue would actually move, he refers to himself as batman, says he'd have to take care of it, and said I could be batgirl.... Comon laugh it up
likestolaugh Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 perhaps something like this is in his future... ....around the 1:00min mark.... http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=iMGrnKk-Zw8&feature=channel_page
cara4 Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Oh man. I'm so sorry you had to sit through that. I'm wondering how you kept yourself from cracking up? I'm not sure I would have been able to keep from laughing. It does make a great story though. Truth is definitely stranger than fiction.

SoulSearch_CO Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 LMFAO @ Kimpossible and Batman. Where the heck do you find these guys? They are great entertainment.
Author dreamergrl Posted February 15, 2009 Author Posted February 15, 2009 LMFAO @ Kimpossible and Batman. Where the heck do you find these guys? They are great entertainment. Did you see the boots and belt yet?
SoulSearch_CO Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I had to go back to see the link for the boots. But didn't see one for the belt. LMAO - unreal. I just can't believe people like this exist. And he referred to himself as Batman at dinner. Damn. Also watched the YouTube "I AM BATMAN!" LMFAO Yeah - scary.
You'reasian Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Like for example if I find out a guy in his late 30s has a very active profile on Myspace I skip right over him NO WAY I will go out with him. He is more than likely stuck in lala land trying to recapture his youth trying to be MR rock star at 40, no time for losers like that! Myspace is kinda cheezy in general - I agree with that. On the age thing - One of the last few races I ran, the overall no.2 runner was a 43-year old man who ran just under a 6:00 pace, which is quick in my opinion. The guy who beat him by a few seconds was 28 or 29? Finding this trend to be true in a lot of sports, even in competitive jiujitsu/judo for instance.
Star Gazer Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Perhaps the boots aren't really snow boots, but part of his Batman wardrobe? They look like they'd go with the Batman suit.
MissDee Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I've always had a thing for comic book guys, so the Batman I don't mind so much. However, Kim Possible? That's just childish.
Trialbyfire Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I've always had a mad crush on the Dark Knight. As for the belt, okay, that's too much. A comic collector, no big deal. A man with a hobby, regardless of hobby type within reason, is someone who has a life outside the relationship. A good thing.
lord alfred douglas Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Yes, maybe but not necessarily. Just take into account where you meet these men. That says a lot for what type of man you will be out with. Like for example if I find out a guy in his late 30s has a very active profile on Myspace I skip right over him NO WAY I will go out with him. He is more than likely stuck in lala land trying to recapture his youth trying to be MR rock star at 40, no time for losers like that! The younger guys on there are not much better really but at least they can get away with it since they are young. Myspace dudes aren't really looking for love they are looking for hook-ups which I am not sure why if they are so special and super rock stars they are not meeting chicks left and right at their gigs etc. But that's another story... You are in your mid 20's right? Try a site that is less "skanky" and where the men are more "complete" yet cool, not some artsy drifter trying to figure out who he is and what he wants out of life through some very lame art. Batman buckle cracked me right up!! :laugh: Are you into more arty guys? I can suggest a few other better places if you like...whats wrong with liking music in your 30's, sheesh first you say youre only attracted to men in their twenties and tell all women not to date men past 30 and then you begrudge us even having hobbies is the perfect 40 year old man the guy who works as a lawyer 60 hours a week so he can spend lavishly on alimony for his ex-wife and her 25 y/o bf?
Tomcat33 Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 whats wrong with liking music in your 30's, sheesh Nothing wrong with that, go back and read what I wrote because that is NOT what I said. I love music, but I don't have some kiddie profile on Myspace collecting pornstars and kudos from people half my age. THAT'S what is wrong with older men who hang out on Myspace looking for dates. Not to mention some wear Batman beltbuckles and snow boots that look like casts, on a date. frst you say youre only attracted to men in their twenties and tell all women not to date men past 30 and then you begrudge us even having hobbies Excuse me but where did I ever say I am attracted to men in their 20's? Are you on crack? is the perfect 40 year old man the guy who works as a lawyer 60 hours a week so he can spend lavishly on alimony for his ex-wife and her 25 y/o bf? The perfect 40 yr old man or 30 or 25 or 35 yr old man is he who acts his age. Not such a tall order to fill but you'd be surprised....

Stockalone Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 The perfect 40 yr old man or 30 or 25 or 35 yr old man is he who acts his age. Not such a tall order to fill but you'd be surprised.... I would agree that there are socially more accepted stages of life to do certain things, but who is to say that everyone has to do the same things in the same order or at the same age?
Tomcat33 Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 I would agree that there are socially more accepted stages of life to do certain things, but who is to say that everyone has to do the same things in the same order or at the same age? True enough, I am all for doing what you need to do when you see fit. But then as someone who is living outside of what is socially expected of your age and place in life don't be surprised if you have a harder time finding your place with the types of women you want to be with. Be it alot younger than you or around the same age as you. And the same goes for women.
ruggy Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 Myspace for dating? Never knew. Guess I am out of touch. I do not have any of those social network accounts. Never found the need or use. 26 with a Batman and cartoon fed-dish.. Hmm.. I guess there are an equal amount of wackos in both genders. BTW, did he show you his cape, batcave or bring you in to meet the police chief?
Stockalone Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 But then as someone who is living outside of what is socially expected of your age and place in life don't be surprised if you have a harder time finding your place with the types of women you want to be with.

Tomcat33 Posted February 15, 2009 Posted February 15, 2009 The important thing is to be true to onesself - why be someone else? Yeah it is important to be true to yourself but it is possible to do that and still keep that in line with maturing if you need a balance of personal intersets VS romance in your life. For example if you are looking to be in a rock band at 39 like a guy who I was on date with not that long ago said to me, and his other band members are the same age as him and older and he complains that they can't seem to make the band work because one of the guys has kids and a wife who "busts his balls" about being out rehearsing all the time and so he is "p whipped" and they can't seem to coordinate a good time for them all to get this going. The drummer who is a little older, just met a woman his age who he is head over heels in love with and she has a kid so he is instant dad and needs to prioritize his time to be with the kid and her over the band, then don't complain that women are ball busters who don't support their men. Be true to yourself but don't complain because others aren't at the same point you are in your life, when you are living out scenarios that fall outside of your maturity zone you are the outcast not the other way around. I think a guy like that should prioritize his needs to further his artistic needs and leave it at that, over trying to make society fit his mold so that he can have his cake and eat it too.

I never viewed myself as an outcast. It would be insane to do that. I do what I consider to be right, otherwise I wouldn't do those things. I will acknowledge that I have done things differently than others, but I always thought I was right and the rest had it wrong. I have always worked under the assumption that things are either right or wrong. The when doesn't really matter to me. I have no desire to play in a band now, nor did I ever. But what difference does it make if a guy in his thirties wants to play in a band instead of doing it in his twenties? If it was okay back then, why would it be wrong now?
You'reasian Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 Yeah it is important to be true to yourself but it is possible to do that and still keep that in line with maturing if you need a balance of personal intersets VS romance in your life.

I think a guy like that should prioritize his needs to further his artistic needs and leave it at that, over trying to make society fit his mold so that he can have his cake and eat it too. I don't think forming a band is out of one's maturity zone at any age. This man needs to spend quality time with his family first, but the band members need to understand this. Men and women whom are married should be allowed to have their own hobbies - yes, balanced with priorities set - but they could benefit from time on their own, working on these hobbies.
Tomcat33 Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 . But what difference does it make if a guy in his thirties wants to play in a band instead of doing it in his twenties? If it was okay back then, why would it be wrong now? Really? Do you honestly think that a guy at 24 with bandmates in their early 20's collectively have the same level of responsibilities and therefore can devote the same amount of time to this pipe dream (beacuse let's face it how many men in their 40's get a recording contract with a rock band?)as those in a band where all the members are in or aound 40s yrs old with kids, families full time jobs and wives? Just because you are single and available it doesn't mean the other band members are. If you are going to take this as a fun hobbie then don't bitch and complain the other guys want a life outside of the band at that age, just because you don't want to have a family and a fulltime job and want to party every weekend, it doesn't mean the others feel the same way. For them the band might just be a good fun hobbie to have not a lifestyle.
Tomcat33 Posted February 16, 2009 Posted February 16, 2009 This man needs to spend quality time with his family first, but the band members need to understand this. . No he doesnt. You didn't read my post. He is not the one with family and love interest outside of the band, his band mates are. HE is the one bitching about how the other guys don't want to spend more time on the band and therefore are "p whipped". Clearly to this guy the band is a something he is trying to pursue more seriously where as for his bandmates it is more of a fun hobbie.
