Grotesque? I've never heard my house called that before? And I like the look of it, I like the style. I've never been a fan of the whole man-cave look, I prefer sleek, clean, and elegant. I'm 100% straight I assure you, I just have a certain design taste. To each their own.
Ya I definitely liked Speedy's displayed pics of his house from earlier as well! And I am also a 100% straight adult male
Just b/c it happens to have a "white color-themed motif", doesn't make it any less "manly", IMO
Different strokes for different folks

We're all different... This type of relationship might be all wrong for you. And it might be all wrong for the majority of the people posting in this thread. But if it worked for him? And he was happy?
NO!!!! Their relationship was NOT fine. While his ex was trophy girlfriend material, she certainly wasn't WIFE material. A useless woman like that is only going to get fat on him as a wife and with big self esteem issues once she loses her good looks. Instead of throwing her money away on designer goods she doesn't need or wear, instead of honing her shopping skills, she should be productive in other ways... like going back to school to develop her mind and to get better career opportunities or if she really doesn't need to work, then becoming a volunteer for a good cause like a charity.
So true. And its amusing but trophy material? the world is filled with that- go to South Beach-it doesnt mean theres anything good inside the person....
have seen that, externals and th ephysical, it always turns out badly for someone esp. if thats all there is.
[quote=bouncethelight;19378569] My advice would be to call her and apologize. Agree that you were wrong, and agree to go back to things exactly the way they were. Why? Because you were HAPPY before! So what if she doesn't contribute equally financially - she contributes in other ways - and you were HAPPY!quote]
That's right. Let her keep spending her money on herself and contribute nothing while he keeps supporting her. Are you serious? Apparently he wasn'thappy or else this resentment wouldn't have built up and exploded like it did.
the thing is with these type of threads we only get one side of the story, and the other person is usually painted harsher than reality, so factoring that into the equation, I feel the woman is not as evil as some posters believe, we can only go on what he tells us, which much of it based on his own flawed perceptions and obvious resentment for the woman that had built up over time.

His ex was fine as a fluffy nothing trophy girlfriend. But she wasn't ready to take the mature next step to be real wife material. I do think that SpeedyAZ would have been happy as long as neither of them were interested in turning their relationship into a marriage. Clearly, in the four years they were together, he grew a person and grew into a mature adult, and... she didn't. She's still a immature girl playing at dressing up Barbie (herself) and not good for anything more. Maybe the sex was great, but that's not a unique talent. I'm betting that after a short relationship mourning period, SpeedyAZ will have no problems finding a new girlfriend that is beautiful and a productive human being. There are a ton of single women out there looking for a catch such as him!!!
Maybe you want to buy into the fantasy dream of having a rich husband who pays for everything, but the reality is that in a real marriage, both partners have to contribute towards their mutual goals. And what happens when she loses her youthful good looks? What advice would you have for his ex then?
But I do believe that if he says he was happy, that means something...
I'm thinking he wasn't all that happy. That this was something that was in the back of his mind for quite some time, something he was on the fence with, and finally came to the surface. He may have been happy to have some eye candy around the house, maybe getting some good sex out of it, but I believe this was weighing on his mind for some time. It didn't just materialize out of this one conversation.
