Almost, if not every time I've heard or known of a proposal of an "Open Marriage" or similar, the relationship concerned has been on its last legs, or had never really been a relationship to begin with. IME it seems to be a shorthand for one partner wanting keep the other around till they...

I've seen quite a few guys use the combination of a wedding ring and a photo of their "dead" wife in their wallet with devastating effectiveness before. And even the genuine ones did very well with it - Can't deny that there is something in this!

It means they can talk to anyone easilly.

This may be because the conditions/major indicators are as yet far better recognised and understod in women? BPD in men IMO often demonstrates in ways that are more accepted/recognised/tolerated as somewhat more "normal" in men or are regarded as a number of different problems. Its only...

Anything but! :) I came here about year and a half ago (lurked for a while) and even though I don't post much, I have been busy learning and applying many of the ideas and principles discussed. They don't all apply/suit my circumstances or sit with my basic personality/values well and I'll...

If you have reneged on a payment agreement with a court, you will have the devil's own job getting them off your back and their powers are generally of the highest order. And if you have an agreement, it looks like your time to enter any sort of plea is long past. However, you can ensure...

The way windfarms make money here is off the back of public subsidy. Grants are pretty easy to obtain and pay around 80% of their 20-year total in the first five years. After that, most seem to regard any power generation as a bonus and many sit idle for much of the time, often because the...

This - If she's not wised-up by now, you need to be getting yourself ready to bail-out.

Yup - but that IMO is no reason to lower my personal standards to her level. Yes, I would be out of there at the first opportunity but not after any kind of strop. IME some of them will. And you will have learned a few things about them and their level of "friendship"/interest. Then you...

Is it sick? I'd rather find out she was hung-up on some other guy at this point, move-on and not waste any more emotional energy on her than be bothered to call her out on it. Calling her out on what is pretty much a first date would be a massive red flag to me. And I would not...

I would tend to go with the thinking that real friends don't do this. Whenever it has happened to me, it is invariably the sort of second-line "friend" or acquaintance, usually a hopless case who has little chance themselves. Rise above it, keep control and don't waste much more time on them.

You are right - It would be over as soon as she did that but there is no way I'd want either of them to see me phazed or getting into a childish strop because of it. I would also be wary of letting her see any sign of insecurity if she met anyone she knew (esp an ex) when we were out - that is...

It works both ways IME - A bit of "accidental" kino from me is a good way to see if she is ready for a more deliberate escalation and you can usually take it that if she is dishing it out, even by "accident" she is looking for or soon will be willing to let you take the initiative and escalate...

Yes this happens and I've had similar happen to me before. So what really? Sounds just like what happens if we meet an ex when we are in the company of another woman. If there is anything still there, it can stir up their feelings a bit, or even ours and get them sparking off each other...

That sounds like a fantastic trip, however is 2-3 weeks enough? I often see people from the US in my country who are simply trying to see too much in too little time and end-up not seeing very much at all as they are always rushing from place to place. You may find that slowing down and...

This - You ought to have a pretty good idea yourself or leave it to circumstance to tell you. eg - She's lying on the bed, shuddering, has abandoned any sense of trying to look good/sexy/attractive and talking utter rubbish, or is insensible, whilst letting you do absolutely anything you want...

A careful choice of not so smelly drinks, sipped slowly. Interspersed with the odd fresh tasting soft drink and regular strong mints are my choices for this.

Well, I've just spent the last fortnight in NYC and I can pronounce it one of the best places I've ever been for women and I'm well pleased with the results - from the woman at the airport when I first arrived, who wanted to know all about my tattoos, various women in my hotel and various bars...

Dunno that much about American guys but as a Scot who has visited, lived and worked in Germany several times over the years, my experience is all good - In fact IME, the girls/women tend to be pretty straightforward and far less of a mindfu*k than the women I'm used to here. :) As for the US...

Maybe an age/location thing? An open/public gay scene is still fairly new in my part of the world and beyond its very youngest members, many gay people have had to live double lives, so it is still not unusual to meet gay prople who have denied or masked their sexuality with hetro...
