Was that called for? It sounds childish and rude to me.

Doesn't sound unreasonable to me. I don't see anything wrong with a guy with old school traditional values and character. There is someone for everybody. You girls make out like he's Ralph Kramden or something.

I know I'm going to regret throwing my two cents in here, but what is this "supposed to" stuff?

You and any woman you date run your relationship your way, my SO and I will run ours our way.

Ye gods!

You may have overlooked the OPs point, even in less traditional partnerships there are responsibilites. When one person fails to do anything it puts the burden on the other. The scales are tipping to far out of balance, nothing equal there.

OK, have fun then. Just don't get pregnant. TK doesn't want kids, and if you don't get an abortion, he'll give you one.

Thank you for saving me the trouble to point out the obvious to Saucywench.

Well apparently you didnt read his comments..Who said its any womens job to clean up after a man?? Especially when she dont live with him. You may not not mind being with someone who disrespects you. But Im sure most of us don't. Theres a difference between traditional and respect.

Usually women feel inadequate and are driven away by men who are neat and organized.

It's only after they get married to a beer guzzling, TV sports watching slob and he won't magically reform, that they get pissed.

This guy must have been beyond the pale!

Default Continue to filthy pigs

I'd thought Id give everyone an update..
So here goes..
My ex came by yesterday, doing the crying act..So I asked him "why are you crying?" He said for hurting you..
I told him I'll get over it, my life dont stop..So I told him the reason he is unhappy because his daughter who is 21 wont allow him to be happy..She ended his marrriage, and she ended us..I told him he allowed her to do this..I told him she needs to realize your entitled to be happy and have a relationship..and she's to old to be throwing a fit..I reminded him he was married 2 years ago and he said his marriage was fine for the first 2 years of their marriage and the last 2 is when they started having problems and thats when his daughter moved in at 18, and he let his daughter ruin his marriage..
I told him if you want to let your daughter run your life thats is your business..
He cried some more and said Im very depressed I need a friend right now. So I asked him you left me because you grown daughter started acting like she was 2, and you want me to be your friend? I told him NO I wont be your friend..I told him he needs to go to his daughter and she needs to be his friend. Then he pulled the crying act again, and said Im not going to make it, meaning he was going to end his life..So I said thats not my business thats between you and your daughter Im not a psychatrist
He did admit he does let his daughter run his life and he is not happy..
So now he is going to wait until she gets married,.. and I told him if he dont stop calling, texting, or coming over to my house Im going to put a restraining order on him...I made it quite clear I want nothing to do with him...But the nerve asking me to be his bestfriend..geez

This guy is nuts. You have to be happy with yourself before you can be happy with others. Im glad your able to step back and see this. You can't change someone whos unwilling to change. Im sure your life is better without this loser. What a nutcase, he needs a psychiatrist, your right. And that daughter needs to get her own place to live.
