Emotions are natural. Makes us human. Don't worry about your feelings, that's a good thing. You can put up a wall (I have before) and yeah, you won't get nearly as hurt, but you aren't going to enjoy life as much either, because it will always feel....I don't know - clinical I guess. Sanitized maybe...about the only words I can use to describe it.

Be selective, but be genuine is all I can say. I hope people see that about me - I've always tried to be very genuine and warm. So when you care about someone - great! Make sure they know it. Just be selective about who you let in.

Sage advice and well stated. I will say that you are one of the handful on here that I relate with and respect your views. In the words of my eldest offspring a true O.G.

no one needs some1 that is that needy for attention, ridiculous demands

Thank you, sir. She is 46 and I broke a rule of mine by dating someone without kids. They tend to be selfish in my opinion. Confirmed.

BTW, the first part of your post that relates to the work you are doing and the schedule you are holding, would be a good copy/paste edition to the popular "my life is stuck in neutral" thread as an example of what it takes to be highly successful. Unless you are born into royalty, it's hard ass work to create success and your post provides a brilliant glimpse into that.

Thank-you, sir. I wish I would have thought of the selfie but I was only concerned about getting back to my parents. Brilliant sir, brilliant.

On the, "Day in the life of...", that's not a bad idea for a thread!!

Thank you, sir. I don't do conflict of that type and I won't let her drag me into her morass of poor behavior. Now if she had been posting in the Donald Trump Hits or Misses thread it would be a different story!!

Some people are just so insecure. I dated a girl like that a number of years ago. At the job I had during that time I was not allowed to be on my phone, and everything was on video. She knew this but still accused me of stuff. She even went through my phone and computer (that was the last straw), and felt pretty dumb when she found absolutely nothing. I ended it and didn't feel bad, because I didn't appreciate that treatment.

You know the drill then. It's ridiculous.

Thanks, milady! Your input is always wise and appreciated!!

I had the same rule when I was dating, but made one exception......only if the woman could not have kids herself.

My current wife survived ovarian cancer before we met, so she knew she would never be able to have kids. It ended up working pretty well as when we got together, my daughter was 10 I think and I had full custody. But it gave her a chance to have that motherly experience since the real mom wasn't in the picture.

Even now that my daughter is grown, she still comes to my wife before her own mom who was back in the picture a few years back.

I'm happy you found out now rather than later. About 3 months was the longest I went before finding out one I was seeing was the same way. Pissed me off more than anything as I saw it as 3 months wasted!

Well done and definitely the exception. My mom is an ovarian cancer survivor, as well.

Duuuuuude......

On the weekend note: Spent all day Saturday vinyl wrapping the grille and window trim on the Lexus. Looks less of a soccer mom's ride and mean as hell now. LED's for interior and exterior this weekend. Gonna wait after the concert next week to slap the gloss vinyl on the roof, then black badges. The poor girlfriend has to endure yet another modding phase; I'm beyond grateful she is understanding.

I assume you'll post some pics after? Like to see the before and after.

Do we have a "What did you do to your car" non-BMW edition thread around here? I kinda feel like a traitor for being here now that the BMW is gone, but this place is WAY cooler than Club Lexus forums.

No, closest we have is the "post a picture of what you just bought" thread. I've seen a bunch of Audi pictures there - not that I mind. I like Audi too - at least certain ones. Usually the ones that start out RS something.

I haven't owned a BMW since 2012 and I'm still around. Though I admit the newest M5 is appealing powerfully to me. I just don't think I can afford even a used example in 4 years. I should edit that to say "justifiably afford".

Wow, just wow! I was going to post something this morning that it has been very, very quiet in the dating thread. Back with a bombshell.
