sally4sara Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 Did I wake up in the Twilight Zone? I think I want to stay here if that's the case.
donnamaybe Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 This is true but over the past few days I have seen a few threads from women praising good men so I thought I would return the love. You are good to me and I am good to you. You're welcome. Does this thread mean it's now safe for me to take you off ignore?
collegeguy_24 Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 How about you show your thanks to the people of this forum by avoiding the dating section and start putting your posts where they belong, in either the Water cooler or Personal rants and confessions. I have no problem with you posting your stuff, but you and so many other clog up the dating section with stuff that doesn't even belong here. If this sounds mean, I apologize, but I am being as blunt as I can be, sometimes at the expense of being called a jerk. and so I can't get accused of not contributing, heres my actual say: There are a lot of good women out there, even a few on this forum who usernames escape me, (Except Donnamaybe, she is one username I do remember and a person I happen to like). There are a lot of good men to, so I salute you all.
LittleTiger Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 It has always been there. I am trying to fuse the two sides of me into a better man and leave all the crap behind but it is very hard. I think most men who have been a doormat for a while and have given up self respect and dignity for a horrible relationship have to go through a period of being somewhat of a misogynist jerk before they grow a pair of balls. Well, I'm impressed Woggle, very impressed. Acknowledging your own demons and facing up to them shows you already have a damn good pair of balls. I'm really looking forward to watching the new Woggle grow. Good on you.
Author Woggle Posted November 12, 2010 Author Posted November 12, 2010 You're welcome. Does this thread mean it's now safe for me to take you off ignore? I hope it is. I am being perfectly honest when I say I will probably have more bitter moments.
Green Posted November 12, 2010 Posted November 12, 2010 I hope it is. I am being perfectly honest when I say I will probably have more bitter moments. I've never really seen you have a bitter moment you just seem to have great fear of the realities. Everything you worry about is true but its just not a good idea to dwell on it. Yes women cheat. Yes women have a double standard when it comes to cheating. Yes men are taken advantage of if they allow such a thing to go on. Good news is no reason to dwell on it. If a woman cheats it will become obviuse, I mean if ur gf/wife is secrative and always going off some where or has a special male friend it doesn't even matter if she is cheating or not really you dump them if they make you feel like crap. As far as women tricking men into raising babies that are not theres you just have paternity test as policy (good women will agree to this). and a woman CAN NOT take advantage of a guy who isn't purposely letting himself be taken advantage of. If a girl came to me and asked me to pay her rent or some other uncomfortable thing I wasn't perfectly happy to do with no fear of not getting paid back or rewarded I wouldn't do it. So in the end stop being scared Woggle you can handle it if something happens.

That's great advice, Green, and I agree. A lot of what Woggle has said on this board has come across as stemming from anxiety that he finds hard to manage, rather than from any desire to upset or hurt other people's feelings.

Speaking of great women, of the the "suposed" women on LS you are one of my favorites

Don't expect it all to come together without doubt and obstacles. In fact expect obstacles and little (and sometimes) big tests along the way. Life has a way of seeing just how happy you want to be. I wish you the best.
climbergirl Posted November 13, 2010 Posted November 13, 2010 This is true but over the past few days I have seen a few threads from women praising good men so I thought I would return the love. You are good to me and I am good to you. You mentioned something in another thread along the lines of "...those men are good to you and I hope you reciprocate." What you said resonated with me because it reminded me of something my fiance said to me early in our relationship. He said, "Love is thoughtfulness". He and you are right. Thoughtfulness doesn't just encompass what you do for each other, but how you treat each other. Funny how everything just falls into place when you are conscientious not to take the other for granted.
