Thank you everyone who defended my intentions during my absence. I am tossing invisible cookies to you right now as I type (I'm that good at multitasking).


I and the other sane posters on this forum clearly see that you are far from a golddigger. However, many of our infinitely more bitter and jaded members love to play the game of "let's see how we can make this thread about golddigging, regardless of how unrelated the original topic is." It's kind of become a running joke around here. If you stick around, you will see what I mean. My original post on this thread was my attempt at humor.

By the time these guys could be looking seriously, they've started to hear all the stories from the divorce wars.

There is a very narrow window of opportunity now days.

A couple of well educated, high earning young lads have recently taken up the game I play. One in particular has all the women atwitter.

Having a beer afterwards - hardly the first time - I was contemplating some advice for them - Namely, "if they were interested in eventually getting married, don't get too engrossed in this activity and let too many years slide by", but they struck first.

I was surprised that both had a degree of awareness of the pitfalls of marriage that I probably wasn't aware of until about age 33. Neither is 25 yet. The power of the internet. A few months on City Data would probably finish them off.

Whoa nelly!! LOL

The restaurant was neither fast-food nor cheap. I live in Houston which is a pretty inexpensive city to begin with. A decent Mexican restaurant usually charges about $12 to $15 for fajitas for one person. When our waiter came to the table, he told us what the special was for the day and thank goodness he did. I love fajitas. He had never had tex mex before so it seemed like a good choice.

I really just needed to vent about my disappointing first date experience. Hopefully next time I post, it'll be a great experience

NotARedneck is obsessed with the idea that all women are evil and WILL exploit and divorce men. Apparently, we all have giant spiky tails and blood dripping fangs as well. Don't forget the hearts of coal and eyes that only see cold hard cash. In fact, I've never heard him speak fondly of women at all on this forum.

Yes that is exactly what I was thinking. The beard, but without the mustache. That ought to be illegal.

I like guys in pink. Well, pink dress shirts that is. One of my favorite looks for a man is a light pink dress shirt, navy blazer with gold buttons, and tan pants. The tie is striped with navy and a darker pink.

Okay, I'm getting carried away!

Finally the thread moved beyond potential gold digger comments.
