“As a woman, I find your type of woman to be the most distasteful – someone who claims to be a strong independent woman but wants spousal support, men to buy your dinner, park your car, carry your bag, can’t forget the Cristal and the most important part – has a sense of entitlement and bitches when she doesn’t get the above.”
Golfgal…..you’re the greatest π
(and please apreciate how big of me it is to look past your apparent poor sentence structure πNostradamus….nice post. Yeah, the best first assumption is that nobody is who they say they are on the web. Marion is a caricature of a chick flick vilian. The one the director inspires you to be wound up. Not sure about program or child, but Avatar sounds like a great guess. It is hard for me to believe that anyone so basic actually exists for real…..but then somebody must vote and elect our politicans π
Me, im off in SE Asia right now looking at all the thin, gracious, well dressed, ladies who, according to Marion, age quickly. ha, ha, ah, ha, haaaaa, bwhaaaahahahaaaa…

April 19, 2008 at 12:02 AM #190158scaredyclassicParticipantI have been thinking lately that i would like some good statistics on what the odds are of being “somewhat happy” on a decisive majority of days of the year, in a long term marriage. After you factor out the divorced people and the miserable people who’ll admit it, and the somewhat miserable people who’ll admit it, and the neutral survivors in a marriage, whata re a couple’s odds of achieving even a small degree of happiness or satsifaction ina longterm relationship. I don’t know if the research has already been done, but i’m betting the odds are pretty damn low. probably less than 20%? 10%? Don’t a lot of really old married guys just look liek they’ve learned to shut the hell up, put their heads down, and keep going in the face of a wave of crap? I’m sure the women feel quite justifiably that the guy s being a nonrepsonsive jerk, and they may very well be right; my point isn’t to assign blame, just to question, is there any freaking hope? this internet exchange, while fun to follow, kind of makes me think that again there is no hope. none. . Of course, what other game is there in town except trying again and again to hook up in a meaningful way? its like an instinct, or the same delusion that keeps people throwingmoney att he lottery? We’re doomed, for the msot part, doomed I tell you. I ahve no facts to back that up, but I think the number of marriages with two truly, satsified customers whoa re somehwat happy ona majority of the days is between 10-14%, as revealed by polygraph testing on critical questions. also since another thread bemoans the construction of audis in china, and this thread plays up the virtue of foreign born wives, i wonder if there is some connection to be made regarding the outsourcing of mates for males to third world countries? Where will american women choose to import their future husbands from, since american made products are apparently in general low quality, defective, and all around lousy?

As the quote goes: “American women expect a perfection from their husbands, that English women can only hope to find in their butlers.”
Foreign born women have more realistic expectations of men. Foreign men have even less ability and training towards meeting the lofty expectations of American women. I’m afraid if American women expect to be happy, outsourcing isnt going to solve the problem, only lowering expectations will help.
Luckily my wife has very low expectations of me, which im unfortunately continualy unable to meet. However, i do recognize that her abandonment of hope for my improvement dispells any nagging, her anticipation of my underachievement is what keeps the relationship positive and her realization that there isnt much of a chance for her to find a better guy keeps us together.
Im a lucky, and very happily married man to have such a wonderful, loving, understanding, patient and although disappointed, not disgruntled or bitter, wife.
So you see, im 100% happy and my wife is only somewhat happy.
