I think it's cute that about 3 pages were taken up by people desperately trying to convince me that things aren't what they seem. I forget which poster said "No offense but I hope your fiancee lays the big one down on you", but the schadenfreude was literally dripping off the screen. Keep it coming gals! Ya'll are making yourselves out to be real class acts!

Says the guy who admitted he would get his "fiancee" drunk to get the truth out of her. That's a class all on its own!

Carry on, you are keeping us all very entertained.

I never said I'd get a woman drunk. Merely relaxed. Drunk people are useless in communicating with.

Oh, so that's why someone actually admitted to hoping that my fiancee would "lay the bomb down on me"? I think it's entertaining to watch women make fun of a guy who merely seeks the truth from someone he plans on spending the rest of his life with. It's a woman's private decision to do one, and I support that...but it's not a private decision to keep from a man she's going to marry. Sorry.

I believe the sentiment expressed was that if you make stipulations to someone who already loves you, they are going to agree with you, truth or not, and that sadly sometimes backfires. And it wasn't me by the way.

That's why you find out early on, before they get too attached. Makes it easier for all involved. With that, I think I'll depart. This thread is quickly spiraling down into the abyss.

Funniest damn thing I have read all night.
50 looks back at 30 and says.......If I had only known what I didnt know.

Thanks, but I'm GTG with my method. It hasn't failed me yet. Analogy rejected.

Another tip: introduce scenarios that would contradict someone's statement. Lies are typically compounded and become harder to maintain over time.
Just because you think medical leeches and lie detectors are viable options for medicine and "truth" extraction doesn't mean that they really are.
Remember, conventional science once said the sun revolved around the earth, we have learned much since then.
And you will, too.

Most men have no idea when a woman is pregnant when she is early in the pregnancy. They also have no idea how many women have had early term abortions. I've been in abortion clinics, and many of the women there were married. And yes, some were those Southern church gals. They changed their tune about that save all fetuses when they themselvers got pregnant. They didn't want another kid, and the husband didn't even know whe was getting an abortion.

The truth be known, men don't have zip to say in this decision unless the female tells them. Religious or not, many of the guys posting on here about their women have probably had a fetus aborted.

I'm laughing so hard. Men really are silly. I'm surprised that abortion is even an issue when you read these posts and see just how dorky some men are.

This thread is just a lot of "what ifs" and judgement by many people who have never had to make the decision. NEVER say you know exactly what you would do, how you would react, until you are in that position, because trust me, you may surprise yourself. I know I did.
