LOL, this is part of the reason I say I will never marry again. It's a lot of work (not just the relationship work, but picking up after, cooking dinner for, shopping for, take care of errands, take care of, etc... all this on top of a full time job outside the home). I swear my free-time quadrupled since the divorce (just because of the reduction of chores and the fact with us sharing custody he actually has to "parent" too). For about a year after he left, my ex used to call me and ask for help, I used to tell him, "you left me, I am not your wife anymore. Figure it out on your own." The only exception I made is if it was a question for something that would effect our child.

I am not against a committed relationship--I want one with a man. But I just don't see marriage again and putting up with the financial and physical drain it puts on me. I'll never say never, but whatever man I choose to marry is going to have to be really, really special.. otherwise, this "cow" is staying free-range.

Oh I want a relationship. My married friends said I will do fine, that I'm so good with children. Lol

Seriously I watched all stuff they go through. The good, the bad, the ugly.

Why is this for men only? Men can be cows, too. Why should I bother to get married if I'm getting everything I need from my bf? I don't need the hassle.

I don't just assume that by "milk" you mean sex. I assume you mean all the benefits of being with another person. In my case it is; sex. dinner out, dinner in, a shoulder to cry on, someone to tell me when my ideas are just wrong, someone to go see shows with, someone to send a goodnight text to.....all that works both ways in our relationship.

I've not gotten sick in over 15 years (not even a cold)
I don't play video games
I send my clothes to the dry cleaners
I lift weights in the evening, but do run @ 2am
I don't wear any deodorant (I naturally smell good)

As you can see, even when I was married/in a relationship, I'm really low maintenance> I'm far from being a lazy person. All I require is a little food once in a while, and a bj

Look at you Mr. Healthy. You don't sweat!? Shut up!
Food is hard because you eat extremely healthy.
Why only Bj's?

Raena that was your best post ever, simply because whilst very funny, there is so much truth to it. Having a husband can sometimes resemble having an extra kid. I decided a while ago if anything happens to my marriage I will be taking paramours only for the rest of my life. I prefer just the sausage rather than the whole pig.

Now now, ladies. We men aren't just pieces of meat to be consumed and thrown away once y'all are done with us! We are human beings with REAL feelings and REAL emotions! Why don't you listen to us and believe it when we tell you we want to be treated with respect, cared for a little bit, and just freaking loved??????

Ok, I guess you can call me Jimmy Dean if you really want to.......lol

Of course, I sweat, but I also take showers.

Its a bit embarrassing, but I eat so much fruit and greens, friends and family (even strangers) say I smell like a bowl of fruit/potpourri.

As far as your last question; I just have a thing for it.
