Dayam, didn't take long to get used to sleepin by myself!

I was single for two years, have a king size bed and still stay on only one side....not sure why? The new girlfriend (yes...the unicorn), had me over the other nite to stay, but she has been sleeping by herself for so long that she enjoyed the cuddles, but not the extra person in the bed....so her sleep was restless! Now she has not stayed over at my place yet.....so we are not sure how that will go?? Maybe she will be okay....maybe she will be restless like at her place??? No clue......we get along great, enjoy the company.....and if us sleeping in the same bed is the one thing that we cannot do, I am not going to worry about it, I will sleep in my own bed!!!
 
:rofl::rofl: come on!!!! You're not older, you're wiser, there's a lot of fish in the sea once you're ready to go fishing, a woman by your side helps you keep your sanity, but please, you're a good man and no man should end his life alone when old, my grandpa divorce when he was young and never remarried, he became a lonely bitter old man, until my mom came to live with him, he kept his house like a museum full of old useless stuff, and dirty, my mom bring some order,and clean to him and the house, he still and ungrateful old man, but at least hes not lonely anymore, don't end up lonely, please.

Lucky bastard.
 
Guess I am one of the fortunate ones... No problems been together over 28 years married for over 21 years, 2 kids and still as beautiful the day we met....

About a year ago I 'invited' an old friend to stay here until she got back on her feet. She had some health issues and was living with her daughter and son in law. She was living out of the country when her mom passed away and she came back to the U.S. to settle her mom's estate and that's when the health issues hit. Anyways, after staying with them for two years, the SIL was starting to make some noise about her staying with them so long so thought I'd help out and offer her a better place with more room.

I went to school with her and we dated for a short time so thought she would be ok. WRONG!! This woman is plain nuts! I knew she was 'different' but man, was she ever different. She would do things without asking thinking she was helping but the majority of what she did was costing me money and I don't have much of that anymore. Tried to be nice and talk to her about it but she had other plans thinking I would like her way better. After 6 months I flat out told her to quit doing this sheeeit and it pissed her off. Well, for some reason she waited until midnight to move out telling me that I was looking for the perfect woman. Told her I wasn't looking at all and that I was trying to help her out.....then stopped and told her to just carry on. And this woman slept just fine....in 'her' room. Thing is, she snored so loud that it would wake me up from her room even with my door closed lol

Oh man, ALL the drama that was in my life with my X is now gone!! There's not even anymore bitterness. What more could a guy ask for lol. I did go through all the stages of grieving though but it didn't take long to realize I was better off with her gone. Guess I got tired of being last. The kids were on top of the list, then the X's family, friends and last but not least, the neighbors. My only regrets is not being educated enough to see all the signs and then one learning it all, trying to make a go with it since we were already 'invested' in each other. Thing is, the only investment she had in me was someone to take care of her!
 
Well I guess I am in the minority here on this one as I have never been married and quite frankly, I have no desire to!!! At this point in my life, 70 yrs young, it just ain't gonna happen. In fact I am really not looking. Oh I have had great loves and relationships throughout those years and thought the 3 in my past, would be the one. Wrong!!! They couldn't handle my work of flying for the USAF, deploying, and having to be absent for long periods of time. Great in the beginning, but fizzled out in the end. I remember my DI in basic saying that if the USAF had wanted you to have a wife, then they would issue you one. In my case I guess it fit my need. To those of you that have one and stayed in it for however long you are or have, then I applaud you. I get a lot of you aren't married??? What's wrong with you??? Afraid to commit, or be in a relationship, or whatever. I have even gotten the are you gay question to which I have to laugh. That is the farthest ridiculous thing I have ever heard because it shows me how discriminatory some married couples can be because you are not one of the so called, "them." I laugh it off most times as that they are clueless to the single way of life, but on occasion, I have had to set their asses straight that I am not of the persuasion and prefer my self and my life style. My time is mine. My place is my place, My bed is my bead and I get to sleep all over it. And quite comfortably I might add. I have no regrets about it and have so many good memories that are mine and mine alone. I sharee them with those who embrace me for who and whit I am and welcome me into their lives every chance they get... cr8crshr/Bill:usflag::usflag::usflag:
 
Married 7, divorced 33. I don't miss it. I have a great daughter, son-in-law and 3 grand children. Had many girl friends since. Engaged twice but I withdrew both times. The good Lord saw fit to rescue me from another bad marriage. Women just seem to complicate things way too much; cost vs. benefit.
 
Been single & looking, for over 20+ years now
my dog sleeps on my bed thou :poke:
certainly not the same, but doesn't bitch at me either :lol:

I like my life, I like the quite, I like the freedom

I won't ever get married, I've never been divorced either
(let alone multiple times, like some)
never really been pussy-whipped either :D
besides I can't replace what I had (RIP Lisa, 1 in a million woman)
or they all have 'way too much baggage' at this state of life
no thanks

I have had a couple long term GF's
I still talk with, we're still friendly,
still get a booty call from time to time
but they are 100 miles away too

at this time of my life, I just don't care either
I still miss someone beside me at night
spooning :bananadance:& the smell of shampoo, perfume etc. in the mornings
not the grief we all get from them,
no matter how much of an angle they are

someone is or will be bitching about them somewhere

I can & do, do fine on my own
(albeit, I do have my dad living with me :BangHead: , PITA sometimes )

just remember that;
you don't have to have a wife to be happy
you don't have to have a wife to be complete either
some people do, but not everyone does


enjoy life, don't sweat the little ****

edited;
get a good dog, Lab (pref.) for companionship, you'll never be lonely
it doesn't replace a good woman, but they are loyal till death...


peoples opinions will vary, that's mine

Geez, I would be lost without my gal. We were up in the warehouse til midnight with her just watching my put the Hemi back together. She helped me put the winch on the new car trailer. Went to a gun show today and she bought me 100 rounds of .338 Lapua for the new Savage. Then she got her nails done and she let me play with her fun parts for awhile.

No complaints for 27 years. It works for some of us.
 
32 years for submit and me. :thumbsup:

My wife used to like coming out to the shop too and she even helped a lot but over time, she quit doing that. Even her best friend doesn't talk to her anymore for some reason.....but her best friend was a bit of a bitch imo and was also much in control. My X even told me once to never piss off her friend because if I did, that would be it. Well, who wants a friend like that anyways!? I put up with her crap for over 2 years until one day I had enough and told her how it was going to be and well, she left in a huff. Fine with me but it pissed off my wife that I did that but the X thought she could say whatever she wanted to my friends if she didn't like them and that was most of them.

My X suffered from depression, was and probably still is a control freak and is co-dependent. As much as I studied it all, it still baffles me! She let the kids have full control but when it came to me, forget it. For those that understands that, please let me know what it all means! lol The X was always going to see a counselor and we did that for a lot of years especially when the step daughter was having some troubles. Shoot, we went from one to another until she found one that told her everything she wanted to hear and that mainly meant me making all the changes. Think I'm with Bud. I ain't lookin and unless the good Lord puts one in front of me where everything comes together, then ok but other than that happening, I ain't lookin! Right now the only woman that likes sleeping with me is Sissy.....a prairie dog lol. It doesn't matter if I fart, belch or sneeze, she's happy to lay with me while watching the Astros get creamed :D
 
I knew it was over when, during one of her rages, my wife pointed a loaded .22 her Dad had given her at me.

She was hypoglycemic and prone to severe mood swings.
 
My advice to all who are still looking, get a fat chick; they're warm in the winter and shady in the summer.
:lol:

:wtf: Being bi-polar also causes severe mood swings! The step daughter also suffered with that. She seems to finally have a handle on it nowadays now that she's in her 40's....

My unit isn't long enough for one of those!! :rofl:
 
Married for twenty and divorced for thirty no complaints on either position.

The relationship I have had with dogs is the closest thing to my relationship with Jesus Christ that I have ever had.
Unconditional love, undying loyalty, eternal forgiveness. My black Lab Bud saved me from myself. His ashes in his oak urn are going in my coffin when my time comes.

:D Anyone else now single after a long term hell I mean marriage!? Still don't keep beer in the house though....but the garage refer is still the place for it and anyone that wants to visit is free to go to it. And I get to waller all over the bed without getting woke up and 'her' tellin me to move over, my breath stinks and get my hands off!! And she wouldn't ever think any tractor I had was sexy let alone turn her on!


You know I was just beaten on you!! Marriage is a real job and I've had my ups and downs and not just in bed for 40 years now!! My brother has been married three times and has lived with his girlfriend for 23 years and refuses to get married. He's 70 and says he's not giving half his stuff away again. At a certain age it's hard to find someone that isn't just looking for a free ride to the end. Getting married for the sake of getting married is a sucker's bet. Do your thing and enjoy what you have, I know I would!!

Someone like that shouldn't be allowed to be around guns!!

Dogs are great but Jesus won't hump your leg.
