Fletch Lives Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) Hmmm. The crazy things some people do when drunk. I guess she does not handle alcohol too well. If you can get over it and realize that she was drunk - Keep her to a two-drink maximum when in public (if you get over this). Her making more money than you is a non-issue is she loves you and does not rub it in your face (ok, she rubs it in your face when drunk). Love trumps money every time.

notbroken Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 Because of the situation around Covid, you had never really been out in public with her much/at all. Now you have. Now you know another side to her. You don't like it (and shouldn't). Run! Seriously, this wouldn't be the last time. She has absolutely showed you who she is. Drop her 100%. Don't look back. No regrets. 2
poppyfields Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) @NoproblemI agree it wasn't "scandalous" as conventionally defined. However, her actions, specifically getting shyt-faced drunk, over-stepping physical boundaries with a stranger (there was no bug in his hair, and even if there were, he was a stranger - it was NOT her place to be fondling his hair to remove it), disrespect towards her partner, reflect extremely poor judgment and lack of strong moral compass. Now if I were a parent knowing all this, I would feel real uncomfortable sending my child to a school whose principal displayed such poor judgment. Would you be comfortable with it? Trusting your child in this person's care? Serious question. Edited October 26, 2020 by poppyfields 1
Zona Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 (edited) 6 hours ago, CaliforniaGirl said: This article immediately makes a tactical error. Husbands aren't sharing the housework and child-rearing to anywhere near the "great husband" extent she describes. In fact, it is often this that drives wives crazy and sends them running: today's wives work outside the home AND assume far more of the home tasks. Women don't run from awesome egalitarian husbands because they're not sexy. They do become incredibly bitter when after marriage, equal relationships tilt drastically. Which only makes sense. https://www.medicalnewstoday.com/articles/319687 Huh? It's not a "tactical error" for her to share her experiences where in an increasing number of cases she deals with as a marriage counsellor, women are divorcing guys who do what women claim they want them to do and there are no problems in the marriage except a loss of feeling/attraction on the woman's part. So do you think that the women we read about here on the OW/OM forum are hooking up with new men because they are better at doing the dishes? Of course not, they are hooking up with them because of the way they make them feel. Any time a guy (like OP) notices any huge red flags, it's best for them to move on. Relationships and marriage aren't anything like what they were in their grandparent's generation. Edited October 26, 2020 by Zona
smackie9 Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 She was being rude. I'm a believer of proper dating etiquette, and number one, you should never ignore or leave your date hanging. It's a let down, but a blessing in disguise. Either she's not really that into you, or she used you to pass the time away, getting attention, or she's just not ready to be serious with anyone. You dodged a bullet. I have to say someone at her age, the students, at the school she works at, probably have more maturity than she does. 2
OnlyHonesty Posted October 26, 2020 Posted October 26, 2020 The only mistake you made was walking away later, rather than at the restaurant.... 2
