Only men who have nothing to lose seriously entertain marriage as an option now days. They bone up on their a$$ kissing techniques and sign up for future alimony. Its the world turned upside down.
I just have to laugh at your posts. My husband doesn't kiss my ass but I know who can..............

Sounds like you have made some bad choices in the past. Take some personal responsibility for that.

I know some awful women who are truly evil and some wonderful women that are truly a gift to whomever is in their life....and the same goes for men. With that said, you need to choose wisely no matter what your gender is.

I have an older friend with a chronically ill hubby who will probably be back on the market in 5-10 years. Whomever lands her (or him if it were reversed) is going to be one lucky SOB.

With that said, I find your posts here invaluable because they give people seeking advice one extreme view which can be a sobering reminder of the consequences of making bad choices. (Like marrying an ex-stripper you met 2 months ago after she got divorce #3. ) Also a good reminder that if you are so jaded you shouldn't go near a relationship with a 10ft. pole.

- She seems turned off at dating for now, but she always seems to attract dicks. Why she does, I think only God knows. I don't treat women like ****, and I want to see not all guys are jerks.

She may seem a bit off dating now, but would I have much hope here?

Everybody is different, but from a woman's perspective, would you be willing to give a guy a chance, even if past experience made things sour?
Ha good luck buddy
