Why wait and why keep whinning about some woman is going to ruin your plans. Im sure many of the CD members would chip in if you cant afford it.

I didn't call you anti-human. Misanthope means people who dislikes most things about the human race!

Ok...my mistake. When you said you went to "college," I thought you meant REAL college, as in an ACADEMIC institution. IMO, "trade school" doesn't qualify.

I find it quite amusing that you call me "anti-human," but you're the misanthrope. You may have looked up the definition, but are not comprehending its meaning. Here it is, in simple terms so you can understand better. misanthrope - definition of misanthrope by the Free Online Dictionary, Thesaurus and Encyclopedia.

That would be a scary thought, wouldn't it... I believed all along colleges couldn't have possibly become THAT indiscriminating.

Well, if I was with a girl and found out she wanted kids and I don't, she would break up over something that really isn't important. If people do the unthinkable and accidents happen, then I see kids as a punishment. Most people who are young need to realize that having kids is a crime. And too many doctors are so hung on age.

Just curious, do you refer to your mother as a gold digger?
You know as many women who don't want kids as do? for real? Then maybe I need to move to Cumberland Cty, TN. It's easy for them to say, but put them in a relationship and things change abruptly.

As for mom? She would tell you she felt enormous pressure to have kids after marriage in the early 60s. For her generation I think she was progressive on this issue, so, no, I wouldn't call her a gold digger.

According to what you wrote above, you gave the impression that you were calling me an anti-human. A misplaced comma will often give a different meaning to a sentence. Maybe you should've listened up in high school, then you'd know that.

Wrong again! Misanthrope does NOT mean someone who dislikes most things about the human race. Didn't you read the definition? Where do you see "most?"

[SIZE=3]mis·an·thrope[/SIZE] (msn-thrp, mz-) also mis·an·thro·pist (ms-nthr-pst, mz-)
n. One who hates or mistrusts humankind

Sweetie, you really should stay away from big words.

From watching movies to reading articles, I've heard a lot of successful men's lives were ruined because of these dogs. When I hear about women being gold diggers, they make me want to resent them as a whole.

How can one identify if their partner is a gold digger or not? Because I have a lot of opportunities ahead of me and I don't want those plans ruined because of a gold digger. Is that all women want in relationships = money?
Although SanAntoQT has responded to my question with some good points, YOU have still not answered my question. Have you had an intimate relationship with a woman who is not a goldigger? I am asking you so that you can reflect on the positives of such a relationship. If so, it will answer your question, because there is a clear contrast between most woman and goldiggers.

If you have not yet had such a relationship, and you can overcome your prejudice and fear of having one, you will need to change your perception of woman as "dogs", "subhumans", and "animals". With no disrespect to your Father, he was wrong in teaching you that you can only get an attractive woman with money. This is not "old school". It is simply a cynical and incorrect approach to life.

PS Put down the remote control and slowly back away from the TV. Life is not a television show!

Well somebody answered that question for you. I was in a casual relationship once, not intimate. I thought she was my age until she brought up and and wanted something I can't stand the most. Then she broke up with me over that. But no, she wasn't a gold digger. I've never approached any girls. I don't take chances to easily.

I could hardly stand my dad sometimes. He wants grandchildren to pass on the name. Screw that! I'm thinking of changing my name to my nickname, but I know he would have a fit. I could hear his mouth now. That's old school.

A woman in a casual relationship doesn't bring up having kids. Something tells me you were bit more involved than you're willing to admit. She broke your heart. That's the reason you won't approach women. The rejection is too much for you.

You should follow the suggestion of having a vasectomy. This way you can never be "tricked" into becoming a father and you'll save the world from your gene pool.

And, so what, if he has a fit? You can't stand him anyway, but, I'm sure you're living in HIS house, eating HIS groceries, using HIS utilities, aren't you, junior?
