    Do we really need a *kitten* bouquet centerpiece for our weekly meeting? Rein it in, sister.

    -Jealousy
    -Men who find the need to brag about money, belongings or the size of their Richard
    -When friendliness is used as an opening to flirt or be inappropriate
    -Men who talk poorly about their exes
    -Hypocrites

    That just about summarises most guys... :o

    Hey bby! I was out in my Porche last week (One of the things my btiochy ex didn't get in the divorce) going to swanky hotel in Millan, and right after I rolled out some hundies to tip the vallet I was thinking you should be here with me. Just to hang as friends, of course because I think you're super nice and stuff (though you do have a nice butt lol. :) ). Anyway, I was at some really ridiculously expensive restaraunt listening to the guy next to me trying to impress the girl he was obviously dating, trying to brag about how amazing he was in bed and I was, like, who is this guy trying to impress, right? It's fricken sad the lengths (not, like, "long" lengths, like *ahem* some of us. lol. :p ) guys will go to trying to get a girl interested. It's totes redonkulus! Anyway, was just hanging on this amazing beach now thinking you should be here with me so we could chill and talk.

    Cheers!

    I'll admit in my teens and early 20's I use to take my whole make up bag. Now I just take my shower bag and moisturizer. No make up, no hair products or dryer. Once my hair is air dried it's up in a pony anyway.

    when they use the idea of "wanderlust" to justify being an unreliable self centered person who is bad with money.

    just because you read "on the road" once doesn't make you an old soul, Becky ffs.

    Oh boy, sometimes women have to tiptoe around this question with other women too. I've learned to respond with something like "if it draped a little differently or was shorter/longer". I learned to shift the question to " is this complimentary to my body".

    I've got to the point now where I'll give a simple yes or no :)

    That just about summarises most guys... :o

    I disagree, but perhaps I have been lucky with the majority of men I’ve spoken too.

    Here’s the thing.

    If someone is bragging about things/money then it’s fair to assume that they would think it’s of interest to me. It isn’t. I’m interested in the person I’m talking to, not their bank statements. I make my own money and need not for anyone to take care of me. Second if he needs to brag about Richard it’s probably because Richard is small. I shouldn’t have to not be friendly. Men and women should be able to converse without him taking my friendliness as an open invite to flirt. If I’m being overly friendly I get it, but then everyone’s ideas of overly friendly is different and this is a war I will not win. Talking poorly about exes is disrespectful and a big red flag for it’s a chance I could one day be their ex and they will be talking of me just the same. And the last point well I don’t think I need to explain why hypocrisy is on the list.

    There used to be a guy here who has been back multiple times I learned recently who would talk about his big house and all these fancy parties his horrible wife dragged him to. He never mentioned the "bits" so I'd have to assume they were average. But I dunno, the guy was 60 and trying to win over internet women bragging about his wealth while still working. My dad retired at 53 after working hard to give us a great life. I'd be more impressed hearing about that. My dad was comfortable and this "wealthy" guy had nothing

    Those are for decoration, just like all the towels in every bathroom! Don't touch!

    Haha! First off this made my morning. Second, I knew a guy who carried on just like this. It’s safe to say we don’t speak anymore.

    Well cheers chica. Glad to brighten your day a bit.
