I didn't care, he didn't care.

Normally, I wouldn't have done something like that. I would have respected that they were friends and steered clear of it, at least long enough for him to have moved on. But considering I had lost all respect for my guy, as a man and a human being, I didn't feel the moral obligation to hold back. I don't regret it and I would almost certainly do it again.

Carry on, kids.
How was that "wrong"? I mean, the dude cheated, so of course, you left him for someone better. That isn't "wrong", that's "cause and effect"

I would NEVER of said anything if she didn't come up to me. IF she had just left me alone, it would have been that. She was asking for it.

Obviously she wasn't cus she was talking to you. So why should she pay for something other women do? Thats stupid.
That's like asking why I should go after a KKK member for the lynching some other Klan's man did. They're almost all the same, women are. Anyway, she had to have alterior motives for talking to me.

This is what I am saying: It's okay to hurt people if they are asking for it. Like that fellow on a date at a fancy restuarant: I in fact did him a favor because now, he'll think twice about over spending! Or the girl at the bar: now, she'll think twice about trying to play with someone's emotions.

If you hurt someone who is asking for it, without doing any real damage to them, you will allow them a learning experience to help them grow on.

Hence, no reason to feel guilty for doing someone a favor

So tell me, if you act like this with ALL girls (way to completely write off an entire gender, thanks) then how are you ever going to find someone? Ever think that maybe she WASN'T trying to play with your emotions? Or do you just automatically think the worst of people?

I'm sorry but your attitude is rotten. You have zero self-esteem and confidence and it's to the point that you practically hate the world and you think that anyone who shows a little human kindness and interest to you is OF COURSE trying to play you! Duh!

I'm ruining the gag I know, but "eh?"? Not followin' other than his one dating preference. Movie reference there?

I assume you believe I'm referencing his response to you. You did look at his next post did you not?

I can't believe I'm gonna say this, but I agree with that - to a degree. Cause and effect is good. Consequence for him, maybe, though it wasn't meant to be punishment on my end. Some people don't get that the result of an offense is not necessarily retaliatory.

Punk'd is a show where Kutcher pulls outlandish pranks on other celebrities. Some of the stuff I read here is just so beyond irrational that I can't believe people actually verbalize it with so much conviction and pride; it must be a joke. Or some wacked out Psychology project where we are the guinea pigs.

Ah, ya, that'd be why. I saw like 5 minutes of that "show" once, I don't have my cable hooked up anymore, haven't for about 2 years.

Meh, most of it's all garbage, the few shows I know of that I like that are on I just buy when they come out or watch online, most are officially streamed a day or so after airing anymore.
