Here’s to all the men I’ve loved before. Well, not ALL of them…some of them. These are a few that left a lasting impression…

 

Ex #1:  He called me “Babe.” Babe this – Babe that. He was always Mr. Cool. He had a cool car and wanted to hang out in all the cool clubs. But being cool costs money – which he almost never had – and often “borrowed” from me. My BS tolerance level got extremely low. He moved into my apt. and promptly made himself at home. It didn’t take long before I had it up to here and told him to git – and git out for good. I had to force him to pay me back for all the money I spent on him. How? By telling his mother...

 

Ex #2:  He’s the motorcycle guy I wrote about in another post – a real adventurer – and I loved that about him. He liked to camp out wherever he happened to stop. I had to rough it and that was really hard for me. I’m a real weenie about bugs and heat and cramped spaces. But – I adjusted and overcame. He was so free. Sex was amazing. He always just went for it. Unfortunately, he “went” for everything:  other women, other jobs, other hobbies... He kept going for so much I just told him to go.

 

Ex #3:  The most memorable one from the Texas bunch was an oilman. He put me in a helicopter and flew me offshore to show me the oil platforms off the coast. It was like I was flying into his kingdom. Whew!!! I’d never seen that kind of raw power before, and with the huge waves crashing against the platform I was scared! Those guys out there always worked their asses off and it’s dangerous work. I admired him a lot and he was larger than life. He made me laugh my head off – and I almost married him.

Then several years later, after all this excitement – I married a German!!!  :-))

    Imagine that you had to tell his mother about the money you spent on him. Oh, there are some real live one's out there, eh?

    I gotta say this post was fun to read, partly because you wrote it well and partly because it was short and to the point. I tend to ramble on and on with details.

    Ginger!!! - You married a Texas guy??? Wowwww! We're crossing interesting paths here. You know, I was with those guys but not really "with" them - know what I mean? And I never figured them out either - they were too macho & too wacked sometimes I think. I got along with New Yorkers much better when I lived there. Now with German hubby it's actually easier than the others even though he's so different sometimes it's like he's from another planet. But - I guess that's what makes it interesting.  Eh - I'm no piece of cake either...

It had to happen eventually....
I was talking to a friend and she asked what is means to be in a relationship today. She had this same discussion with a male friend of hers. What he said in a nutshell was that today people get into relationships for selfish reasons. One may want a rela...
I dedicate these words to poetzsoul, in hopes that her next 25 years are motivating....
The quick version.......
You do not really have to worry whether your ex is thinking about you or not. More than likely, your ex is actually thinking about you even when you don't make any effort....
