What characteristics do women look for when they’re handing out that “lifetime partner” label? Seems like it’s not as cut-and-dried as some might think, and to be honest, the criteria aren’t as complicated as they’re made out to be.\n\nMen have the “wifey-type” designation all figured out, but women? Women act like they’ve got a 12-page manifesto when it comes to selecting a husband. So, let’s break it down and strip away all the nonsense, shall we? I’m going to give you the top three things women secretly look for in a guy they can lock down. Grab a pen; this is important.\n\nMorning Competence Let's be real: most men, if asked, would say they want someone who looks stunning at all times—preferably in a string bikini while holding a baby goat or something. But women? They’re looking for something else. It’s about waking up next to someone who doesn’t look like they just emerged from a swamp, sure, but who also doesn’t ruin the vibe by immediately demanding coffee and a full-on “guy friend” pep talk. A husband doesn’t need to look like a model at 7 a.m., but he better not be a trainwreck either. Women like a dude who’s got his stuff together first thing in the morning—whether it’s because he can actually get out of bed without groaning like he’s in a death metal band or because he’s got a game plan for the day. If you wake up, have a coffee, and start talking about your fantasy football league before your feet hit the floor? You’re probably not husband material.\n\nBeing Unfussy Here's the thing: no woman wants a high-maintenance man. If you're the guy who wants five-course meals every night, can’t handle a little dust on the coffee table, or has a list of demands that could rival an A-list celebrity’s green room, you’re toast. A true “husband” can roll with the punches. He doesn’t have a meltdown over missing socks or complain about the temperature of his food. The "I’m just here for the ride" attitude is one of the most underrated qualities in a guy. Because, let’s face it, no woman wants to spend the next 50 years of her life asking, "Why is your shampoo bottle always in the middle of the shower?" Keep it simple, keep it chill, and you'll probably make it on her husband list.\n\nThe Ray Allen Syndrome Much like men appreciate a “wifey-type” who can play a supporting role and shine in her own right, women look for a husband who’s willing to put his ego aside for the greater good. In sports terms, think of Ray Allen. The guy went from being an all-star to playing a diminished role in order to help his team win a championship. That’s what women want from a husband. They don’t need the guy who’s obsessed with being the “star of the show” or the center of attention all the time. What they need is the man who knows how to step up when necessary, but can also chill in the background and let his wife take the lead when the situation calls for it. It’s the difference between being a solo act and part of a team. And believe me, if you can rock the "I’m in it for the team" mentality, you’re more likely to snag a ring than a guy who’s too busy trying to be the next big thing on Instagram.\n\nOf course, there are a ton of other qualities that play into the “husband material” discussion—things like loyalty, emotional availability, and, let’s be real, not looking like a total mess after a bad day. But if you don’t nail the basics—morning competence, the ability to stay unfussy, and not being obsessed with your own shine—you’re probably not making the list.\n\nSo, next time you're wondering why your “husband potential” is being questioned, take a good look in the mirror. If you’re still struggling with your wardrobe, or you think your bachelor pad is a good enough substitute for a real home, you’ve got a lot of work to do. Until then, maybe dial back the whole “she’ll just have to love me for who I am” approach. A woman will love you, but only if you're, you know, capable of being a functioning adult who knows how to handle the basics.\n\nAnd remember, fellas: no woman’s going to want to spend the rest of her life with a guy who’s still trying to figure out how to operate a dishwasher. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?TheHusbandList END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?KeepingThePeaceHilariousSolutionsToEvery URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?KeepingThePeaceHilariousSolutionsToEvery DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20241121T230000Z DTEND:20241122T000000Z CREATED:20241122T162426Z DATE-MOD:20241122T162426Z SUMMARY:Keeping the Peace: Hilarious Solutions to Everyday Relationship Annoyances NAME:Keeping the Peace: Hilarious Solutions to Everyday Relationship Annoyances DESCRIPTION:With Men Is EVERYTHING Always Just Really About Sex?

Well, sir, I think you should go ahead and pay the bill and IF WE OWE YOU A REFUND, WE’LL SEND IT TO YOU.\n\nScrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrrr.\n\nSo let me get this right.

This effectively neutralizes any effectiveness that ‘The Rules’ might have.\n\nThe Rules are only effective against lesser Betas of ZERO skill, who women are not attracted to anyway.

Thus, her direct experience with men is limited (not that white chicks who have been dating since 14 know much either).\n\nLSB thinks that there is some skillset she can develop to get a guy higher than her league. THERE-IS-NOT.\n\nPlus, since you will only be able to marry a man that your father gives a stamp of approval on, and he will filter for Beta provider bonafides, not for ‘gina tingle/alpha’ bonafides, you are virtually guaranteed to be married to a man who will make a good husband, but for whom you will have zero attraction.\n\nSo why do you bother with ‘The Rules’, which does not even work for promiscuous, hypergamous white women? \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?NavigatingHolidayRomancesWithConfidenceAnd END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?20EmbarrassingSexQuestionsWeAllAskInOu URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?20EmbarrassingSexQuestionsWeAllAskInOu DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20211212T230000Z DTEND:20211213T230000Z CREATED:20241213T095615Z DATE-MOD:20241213T095616Z SUMMARY:20 Embarrassing Sex Questions We All Ask (In Our Heads) NAME:20 Embarrassing Sex Questions We All Ask (In Our Heads) DESCRIPTION:How Pocket-Dialing Can C*ckblock You (https://bit.ly/49yWLYK)\nAttack of The Killer Ex (https://bit.ly/4g8Sg9R)\nHow To Deal With A Psycho Ex During The Holidays (https://bit.ly/3ORrrL8)\nAttention Mongers Crybabies and Dramaheads (https://bit.ly/3DfapnV)\n25 Signals You're Not Ready For a Online Dating (https://bit.ly/3DadqpB)\n5 Skills Every Man And Woman Should Master (https://bit.ly/4gcYLIz)\nCan Sex Be A Laughing Matter?

How to do this in a new way, one that isn't about advocating for the naval gazing of the highly privileged, or the current notion of self care as a solely private function - I don't know exactly. But I do know that the separation between self and other has been exaggerated by the modern, capitalist world, so much so that it's difficult for those of us born and bred in this culture to move beyond imagining another way of being together, and working together. Lots of visions, but mostly visions that we repeatedly chop off at the feet through our capitalized habits.\n\nAnd so, in the end, I think it's important to have some compassion for where we are at. For all the ways in which members of different groups are struggling, and so often failing, to come together to resist and break down the oppressive structures that be, and to build something new, and more life affirming. It's heartbreaking at times how much we tend to step on each others' feet and keep the wheels of oppression turning, even amongst folks who are so motivated to not perpetuate that very thing. But it's what people do when they haven't figured out another way.\n\nIn other words, we aren't going to get to something called "community care" or a culture of caring for each other as the norm without going through a lot of mud. And being ok with the fact that sometimes, it's too much to take even one more ounce of that mud under our consideration for a day, week, month, or even year at a time. The revolution must be something that moves beyond anything we can think up. It has to include the whole works, and probably needs to defy most of our expectations and desires, in order to be that which our hearts truly long for.\n\nThere has been some pretty intense discussion on this post about a relationship between a man nearly 20 years older than his now fiance. Some of it has been about the age difference. Some of it about the way in which the man waffled about his desire to have children again. There have been several other related issues that have been brought up as well, and I'd invite people to read through the comments section - it's a pretty rich discussion.\n\nOne comment in particular, by a guy named Allen, struck me as really important.\n\nWe all go through stages of being ready or not ready for love. It is a matter of finding a good match and when both are ready. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?SmartIndependentAndAloneChallengesWomen END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?MenAreTheNewWomen URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?MenAreTheNewWomen DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20230107T230000Z DTEND:20230108T230000Z CREATED:20250108T075808Z DATE-MOD:20250108T075808Z SUMMARY:Men Are The New Women NAME:Men Are The New Women DESCRIPTION:An Ode to Emily (https://bit.ly/4a8WpIB)\nMore Than Meets The Eyes (https://bit.ly/3PqnoFX)\nShould I Tell Her How I Feel?

Are more and more men taking on traditionally feminine gender roles?\n\nThe phrase “Men are the New Women” comes from Leah, the founder of the streetwear designer label Married to the MOB (Most Official Bitches). In an interview, she explains what that phrase means. Basically: some men are now wusses.\n\nSo is it true? Men taking on traditionally feminine gender roles and becoming wusses?\n\nI asked a few friends and looked online for some opinions. Here’’s what I gathered:\n\n“OMG they totally are! All the guys I”ve been meeting are SUCH wusses!” - SW\n“I don”t know about all guys, but [my friend] is a hot stud AND such a girl at the same time. He even called once to talk about his feelings and how we can communicate better.” - NK\n“Just look at my gay boyfriend for your answer. What do you think?” - LE\n“Maybe it’’s the whole metrosexual craze that’’s turning men into women. Personally, I love it. Sensitive men are so much better than the deadbeats I”ve been dating.” - AB\n“If you mean something like metros, ugh, I can”t stand that. Give me a real man any day.” - EL\n“Yup, some guys are definitely turning into pussies now. Makes the rest of us real men that much more desirable to women, if you ask me. That’’s why I”ve got so many dates nowadays.” - BW\n“I don”t want to have to ask a guy out. I like it when a guy asks me out. It shows… I don”t know… It shows that he’’s a man.” - LL\n“More and more guys are talking about commitment, biological clocks, and—ugh—their feelings.” - JA\n“In fact, not so long ago, I actually heard a boy tell me, ”Not tonight, I have a headache.” Seriously? SERIOUSLY? You’re taking this away from us?” - EM\n“The new fall season [of TV] shrinks the number of belittling stereotypes [that men] may occupy to just two: cads or dads.” - AS\n“In China, Shanghai men are well known as ”Pa Lao Po”, which means ”afraid of wives”. Shanghai women are the dominant ones in the family.” - 8A\nSounds like a resounding YES from the sources I”ve found. Men certainly are the new women - at least some of them.

She’s someone I rarely keep in contact with, but someone who I know is always there for me if I need it. I don’t recall the last time I was given a friendship bracelet that someone actually made themselves. In any case, I know that I was never able to fully appreciate what it meant in the past.\n\nAs she tied the four-coloured bracelet on my left wrist, I thought about her thinking of me. Her thinking of me and sitting down with these pieces of string, meticulously twining them together to produce this token of friendship. It made me feel good. This idea that someone you may or may not be thinking of (maybe haven’t even thought of them in a very long time) is hundreds of miles away thinking of you and making something tangible to express it.\n\nThe sentiment floors me.\n\nTo accord with this tradition, the giver must tie the bracelet on the arm of the receiver and it must be left to fall off naturally.\nI’ve never really understood what a friendship bracelet is; where they came from. Wikipedia tells me that it’s a custom that has its roots in Native American culture, specifically the Central American tradition. To accord with this tradition, the giver must tie the bracelet on the arm of the receiver and it must be left to fall off naturally.\n\nRemoving the bracelet before this happens signals that the friendship has taken a turn for the worst. The article also described a variation on the tradition, where the receiver makes a wish when given it, and when the bracelet falls off the wish will come true.\n\nI think maybe my favourite aspect of these is that it’s a global custom; there are many cultures that observe this practice. When my ex-wife and I were in Oaxaca, Mexico last year she bought me one made by the indigenous people in the area. Perhaps understandably, I took it off while we were going through our break-up. I’m glad I kept it though, because as our friendship has strengthened I feel it’s something that can again tie us together.\n\nI only wish she were here to tie it back on. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?WhyMyFriendshipBraceletMeansSoMuchToMe END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?HowToBecomeAnOnlineDatingPro URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?HowToBecomeAnOnlineDatingPro DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20220115T230000Z DTEND:20220116T230000Z CREATED:20250116T094354Z DATE-MOD:20250116T094354Z SUMMARY:How to Become an Online Dating Pro NAME:How to Become an Online Dating Pro DESCRIPTION:A Relationship Evolved (and Happy Birthday To My Ex) (https://bit.ly/409zNDg)\nThe Unforgettable First Kiss (https://bit.ly/40bPOst)\nJealousy Versus Envy (https://bit.ly/3PAH1LA)\nLove Addict: The Pregnancy Dilemma (https://bit.ly/3WiZNuP)\nHow Do You Help Someone Who Doesn’t Want Help?

But having the discussion may be necessary not only for your health, but the health of your relationships and family.\nSexually transmitted diseases impact more than just the physical body of the person who contracts one. They impact self-esteem and self-worth, relationships, and can cause stress, anxiety, and sometimes extreme health scares.\n\nWe decided to take a look at STDs during the month of March because even though a majority of people will experience some form of a sexually transmitted disease during their lifetime, they are very much stigmatized. This is particularly true for those that “show themselves” – such as genital warts, which come from the most common STD, HPV.\n\nThe more that we talk about the reality of STDs, the less stigma that will remain. And the more we are open with ourselves and our partners about these uncomfortable subjects, the more we unearth other issues lurking under the surface.\n\nHere are our two favorite pieces that were submitted for this month’s topic. Thanks to everyone who submitted their story:\n\nAn STD Affair\n\nA couple in their mid-forties with two children came to me with some very typical issues at their stage of married life. She wanted to improve their communication and was seeking more attentiveness from her husband. He was working long hours and under much pressure at the office; he was looking for some downtime at home, and less scheduled social activities by his wife.\n\nWe began our work on these issues. After several sessions, I received a call from the wife asking for an individual session. In that session, in which she was in tears throughout, she told me about a recent visit to her gynecologist when she learned she had an STD. It had to have been passed on from her husband. She was truly in shock and disbelief and didn’t know how she should proceed with this information.\n\nWe determined that it would be best for her to sit down calmly with her husband that evening. She would explain her doctor’s appointment, and allow him to respond and ‘share’ how this could have happened. Much to her surprise, he broke down immediately, crying.\n\nHe said that he had been wanting to tell her about an affair and could only assume that that was how she had contracted an STD. The affair was short-lived, three months, and had ended several months before.\n\nHe said that he had been wanting to tell her about an affair.\nDuring the next session, and many more, we worked through all the kind of issues that surrounded such an affair. The husband was desperate that this behavior not ruin his marriage and family, and was eager to do whatever would help his wife and his marriage.\n\nHe was someone who found it quite difficult to have lived with a lie, and now to live with the emotional and physical pain he had caused his wife. He was truly regretful.\n\nIn this case, an STD actually allowed for all the truth to be out on the table, probably more quickly than might otherwise have happened. It forced the couple to deal head-on with the underlying issues of what had occurred in their marriage. They worked for a year in therapy and are one of those fortunate couples who feel that they are now more connected than ever before.\n\n- Sharon Gilchrest O’Neill, Ed.S., LMFT, USA\nA Short Guide to a Happy Marriage\n\nBad News Pap\n\nSince I was 15, I’ve always gone to the doctor for a pap. They all came back normal until one in 2007. This test showed some odd cells, but my husband and I had had sex the day before. I told my doc and he said that would do it.\n\n\nPhoto: morrissey\n\nThe following year when I went back for my pap the results were abnormal. They referred me to a gynecologist to do some procedure I’d never heard of and didn’t tell me any thing other than my pap was abnormal.\n\nSo my husband and I arrive at the doctor the following week, and she asked if I understood what an abnormal pap smear was. I didn’t. She told me it meant I had HPV – the type that can cause cervical cancer. I started crying hysterically. She asked if there was anything else – like if I’d cheated, I assumed – but I had been with my husband and only husband since fall 2003. All my paps from then until 2008 had been normal. She told me that HPV can lay dormant in your system for years, although it’s not common.\n\nI eventually calmed down and she performed a colposcopy – where a sliver of the cervix is cut off so the cells can be examined to see if there is any evidence of cancer – while my husband held my hand and wiped my tears. I can’t quite describe it, and really, I’ve blotted it out of my memory.\n\nThey told me it would take a few days to get the results back and they would call me. The gyno said that she was pretty sure that on a scale of 0 to 10 with 0 being no cancer and 10 being cancer, I would be at a 2 or 3. I remember walking to the car with my husband crying uncontrollably – I hurt, was cramping, bleeding, felt dirty and was confused as to how the fuck this was never noticed. My husband reminded me to wait till I got the results before I jumped to conclusions.\n\nA week late, the office calls. The gyno told me she had my results and she was surprised. Instead of being a 2 or 3 on the “cancer scale” I was a 9! Needless to say I was freaking out. I was devastated. I was scared.\n\nI was then told I needed to get a LEEP, and I decided to go to a different doctor. My husband went with me to the procedure. Basically, they take an electric wire and cut the tip of your cervix off to remove the cancer cells.\n\nIf I would have waited even a few months longer to have a pap, I may have fully had cervical cancer.\nLuckily novocaine is used before they cauterized my cervix! It really didn’t hurt…until the novocaine wore off. It smelled like burning flesh. My husband made jokes and kept me laughing the whole time. The gynecologist was amazing! This GYN had all my previous paperwork so she was able to know what was going on.\n\nWhen the results came back, it turned out to be 9.5 on cancer scale. If I would have waited even a few months longer to have a pap, I may have fully had cervical cancer.\n\nSome things I’ve learned since all this shit happened: there are many strains of HPV, types that cause cancer and types that cause warts. Males can carry HPV and not know it, and there are no tests to check males.\n\nI may not be able to have children or carry them to term (luckily I don’t want them). I think I know who gave it to me, but I’m not sure. Condoms don’t protect fully against HPV. And it is much more common than you think to have HPV, unfortunately.\n\nI had to have a pap done ever 6 months until I had 3 in a row that came back normal. This past December 2011 was when I was officially given a letter that I could resume yearly pap smears.\n\n- Michelle, USA \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?YourStoriesFacingStds END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?MyFirstFirstDateInALongTime URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?MyFirstFirstDateInALongTime DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20220123T230000Z DTEND:20220124T230000Z CREATED:20250124T094115Z DATE-MOD:20250124T094115Z SUMMARY:My First First Date In A Long Time NAME:My First First Date In A Long Time DESCRIPTION:Why girls on dating websites don't know how to have a conversation (https://bit.ly/40wbtvB)\nWhy “we need to talk” should be happening in your relationship (https://bit.ly/3WwLjaJ)\nLiving With The One You Love (https://bit.ly/3CwEBL3)\n4 Ways To Be Really Rude While Instant Messaging (https://bit.ly/3CsYrH2)\nHow Emo Updates Hurt Your Relationship (https://bit.ly/3WxFee7)\nHow Straightforwardness Got Him the Date (https://bit.ly/40znReq)\nHow to Keep Long-distance Relationships Alive (https://bit.ly/4gihBO0)\nHow to Find Love in 2025 (https://bit.ly/3WwrLDw)\nIs Religion Important When Dating?

But if you were there, would’ve been perfect!!! :) “\n\nI like that response. We banter back in forth a bit, and then I eventually invite her to take me out in Chinatown the next day for afternoon tea, telling her she can “show me a good place”.\n\nShe agrees, only to hit me with the switch 20 minutes later, “we should go to dinner instead, there are no good cafes in Chinatown!”\n\nFucking shit. When Ghetto Club pulled this same shit on me a year ago, I rescinded the offer with a “never mind” that basically lead to our first ever fight – before we even went on our first date. But, this seems a bit different, it’s a Chinese girl who’s only been in America less than half a year and is taking me to a restaurant in Chinatown to show me something about where she comes from, so I actually just agree it and move our meeting time to later.\n\nOn the day of the date, I show up a bit early for a change. She’s not there yet, so I walk around. When she arrives, she texts me, “Hey I am right here!” So, I go back to our meeting spot and meet her. Then, we walk to the restaurant.\n\nThere are a lot of people standing around outside, so we assume there’s a wait. We go inside to put our name down, and she handles it of course speaking to the seating staff in Mandarin. She tells me it will be a 5 minute wait. So, we go back outside and look at some pastries in a nearby bakery and she’s explaining to me what the different treats are.\n\nSure enough in just a few short minutes, we’re called to come in and sit down. The place is rather small, so we’re actually sitting right next to another couple. I find it a bit odd and it also kind of kills any bit of sexual escalation I was planning on doing over dinner, since I have another couple right next to me.\n\nWe look at the menu and she points out things to me she thinks will be good, and I pretty much just go along with it, since I don’t know much about real Chinese food. She orders everything by talking to the waitstaff in Chinese and I have no idea what I’m about to get.\n\nThere’s tea on the table and she pours my glass and hers and continues to pour my tea all night long whenever its empty.\n\nWe chat a bit. The conversation is more comfort than anything, since it’s hard to attraction with her since her English isn’t great. I tell her about myself a bit and where I come from and I guess my hope in that is that minor DHV’s drop in from time to time.\n\nWhen the food comes out, she tries to teach me how to use chopsticks, but I’m horrible at it I would starve if I were forced to eat such away. So, I wind up just eating the dumplings with the serving spoon until the waitstaff can bring me a fork. That’s much better.\n\nWe share a lot of laughs… at my expense…. since I’m so awful with the chopsticks. She keeps trying to teach me and help me, but to no avail really. Plus, this shit hurts my hand, it’s so unnatural for me.\n\nAbout halfway through dinner she says I should use this time to practice my chopstick skills. I tell her that I’ll try them again, but she has to use her left hand.\n\nShe tries to using her left hand and drops stuff and struggles to pick stuff up, saying “It is hard with my left hand! I’m as bad as you!”\n\n“Yeah, now you see how I feel….”\n\nEventually, I kind of get the hang of it and am actually able to eat with these things, although my hand feels like a warped claw. She keeps saying “Good, good. There you go.” Every time I successfully pick something up with the chopsticks, and then she tries to find something bigger or harder to grab and says, “now try this one.”\n\nIt’s quite the experience, but eventually we get full and request take home boxes. We split the check and head out. We walk and talk for a little bit to end the date, but for the first time in a long time, I’m questioning what I should do and how/if I should kino.\n\nShe touches my arm from time to time, usually crossing the street or something like that. I should’ve just grabbed her hand, but for some reason I was unsure about it…. and I can’t remember the last time I felt so unsure about grabbing a women’s hand, but here I was in Chinatown with a girl straight from China and I’m wondering “Can I grab her hand? Is that culturally allowed? Is that acceptable?”\n\nI have no idea what the cultural norms are. So, I question it too much and never do it. At the end of the date, we hug before we part ways. I try to grab her chin and go for the kiss, but she gives me the cheek and that’s it. Again, she may just not be interested in kissing in public – I don’t know.\n\nI should probably learn more about the cultural norms of dating Chinese women and then try to figure out how to fit and alpha frame into that. Or something.\n\nAll-in-all, it’s an okay date. I could’ve pushed to make it longer, extending in to a longer walk through the park or maybe to some place nearby, perhaps a pub even – although that’d be a bit incongruent with my new-found soberness. I’m not sure if I’m in much of a better position with her now than I was before – but at least I was able to hang out with her outside of school for a couple of hours and have a good time.\n\nIt also serves as a few firsts for me, which are nice to get out of the way:\n\nmy first date with an Asian girl and I’m not even talking FOB, just my first date with an Asian girl, period.\nmy first date since my break up with Ghetto Club\nAnd, my first dinner first date….. maybe ever.\nIt may not go anywhere, but at least I learned how to use chopsticks. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?MyFirstFirstDateInALongTime END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?DearTypicalFemaleYourOnlineDatingProfile URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?DearTypicalFemaleYourOnlineDatingProfile DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20210129T230000Z DTEND:20210130T230000Z CREATED:20250130T094426Z DATE-MOD:20250130T094426Z SUMMARY:Dear Typical Female, your online dating profile sucks!

She was wearing a pink and white striped shirt.\n\nI wanted to open her, but I was in the library. People are studying, you’re not supposed to talk in the library. What should I do? What should I do?\n\nThen, I get an idea…\n\nI reach in my bag and pull out my notepad and a pen and I actually start feeling an adrenaline rush, I find it amusing as hell that I’m about to pass this girl a note like it’s middle school or something, I write exactly this:\n\nYou look like a pink candy cane.

No fun!\n\nI just go back to my work and forget about it. I study some more, then it was almost time for me to go, so I figured, fuck it, I’m giving it another shot. I grab another piece of paper and write.\n\nI’m about to leave in a second. Are you on Facebook? If so, write your info down and pass it back.\n\nI rip it out of my notebook and reach up to hand it to her.

I had been seeing (and eventually living with) this woman for 5 years and was told it’s the ring or the highway. I never felt she was the “love of my life” or my “soul mate”, but I did love her, we got along great, and I wanted children so it made sense at the time.\n\nFast-forward 8 years and I’m in the middle of a divorce. Was it wrong to marry someone I wasn’t “100% certain” was the one for me? I don’t know, I ended up with 2 awesome children and although divorce is horrific I feel that I (and my kids) will be much better when it’s over.\n\nWith respect to the smoking argument, my wife agreed to quit smoking when we had our first child. After the second child, 4 years later, she decided to start again because “I was stressing her out and making her crazy”. I hated it and pleaded with her to stop, for the sake of the kids, for her own health, for our intimacy, because of the added financial strain. I was accused of “trying to bring the kids into it”.\n\nIn the end she refused to quit, saying that “I knew she smoked” when we got married. It definitely isn’t THE reason we’re getting divorced, but finding ashes strewn around the car she uses to drive our children around was definitely one big nail in the coffin. Kill yourself if you need to, I may have to suck it up because of my choices, but when you put my kids at risk you’ve put yourself on shaky, and ultimately un-sound, ground.\n\nI arrive at the Lower East Side bar about an hour into the soiree. By then, everyone there had consumed at least one cocktail and had loosened up. I decided to use the knowledge I’d gleaned from a Whiskey tasting a few weeks before and ordered a finger’s worth of Johnnie Walker on the rocks. Normally, I’d order a Merlot and nurse it, but it was a holiday weekend and I’d given myself permission to slack off. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?IQuitAFewMonthsAfterIMetThemAnIWould END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?AreHappyMarriagesAMythWhatCouplesWhoLas URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?AreHappyMarriagesAMythWhatCouplesWhoLas DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20220220T230000Z DTEND:20220221T230000Z CREATED:20250221T092838Z DATE-MOD:20250221T092838Z SUMMARY:Are Happy Marriages a Myth What Couples Who Last Do Differently NAME:Are Happy Marriages a Myth What Couples Who Last Do Differently DESCRIPTION:I Travel The World.

We unfortunately have meshing parts and are supposed to be in harmony with each other. There is nothing wrong with loving someone and feeling emotionally committed to another human being. I think the level of detachment, serial dating and string-short-term relationships, if anything, can be unhealthy on the human mind.

I know that if my wife found out it would devastate her. So I am careful. Extremely careful. My relationships are with married women who also have much to lose so discretion is mutually advantageous. I draw the line at friends or anyone likely to be in our social circle. This matters because it dramatically reduces the chances of my being caught and should I be caught would dramatically reduce the social impact upon my wife. I love her and don’t want her to feel the devastation that knowledge of my infidelity would bring. Some may find this self-serving and they may be right. I know that my kids have a loving family home and are growing up so proficient at life it is at times embarrassing and I would do everything for them. The truth is my infidelity ensures this situation continues. Without it I would be amplifying the stresses that my marriage (and I don’t think I’m alone here…) has with possibly terminal consequences for it and the stability and love that my kids so clearly thrive on.\n\nSo I am clearly vulnerable to the accusation that all this does is reveal the flaws in my marriage. That may be so, but it remains just an accusation. I know and see the reality and my infidelity makes me a better husband and father despite the paradox that many moralists would see in this statement.\n\nThanks for reading.\n\nAnon6 (https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?Anon6/edit&newpage=1&theme=margot&sq uelette=1col.tpl.html&style=light.css) years agoReply\nAnother well thought out and well written comment on this exceptionally interesting board. May I ask what is the specialist website you’re referring to? Ashley Madison (which I find highly suspect)? Or another?\n\nI’m in a very similar situation although I have had affairs with single women whom I knew were trustworthy. The key was letting them know that I had no interest in leaving my wife to prevent them from getting ideas in their heads about future marriage. Single women are also safer because I need not worry about (potentially dangerous) jealous husbands. But there is no question that other married people is a much safer approach. And I fully believe that your affairs make your marriage a better and happier one. If I couldn’t have something discreet and fun on the side there is simply no way I could stay in my marriage. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?TheFlawsInMyMarriage END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?RedFlagsToWatchForInOnlineDating URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?RedFlagsToWatchForInOnlineDating DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20220310T230000Z DTEND:20220311T230000Z CREATED:20250311T163036Z DATE-MOD:20250311T163036Z SUMMARY:Red Flags to Watch for in Online Dating NAME:Red Flags to Watch for in Online Dating DESCRIPTION:We’re All Slutty For The Right Guy (https://bit.ly/3QWSfe6)\nDear Men: This Is Why Loyalty Is So Important To Women (https://bit.ly/3QXZa6L)\nHow Do You Avoid Dating a Liberal/Conservative?

It’s really difficult to see it coming because at first, it’s easy to get caught up in the excitement of a man really knowing his literature and being knowledgeable about women’s issues in politics and culture. It makes you feel respected. But it’s a bait-and-switch. I got hoodwinked this way — a guy I was dating was very upfront about being “poly,” which I was open to if things went somewhere. But as time went on, it became clear that the personal, emotional respect accorded to partners in real polyamorous relationships was missing from him. In other words, he wasn’t looking for a polyamorous relationship, he was looking for a bunch of booty calls. In other other words, he lied to get laid. Gross.\n\nYou know what’s actually cool to me? Guys who don’t feel the need to be patted on the back for being feminists, who do it solely because they think it’s right, who don’t push their version of feminism on women. Guys who don’t co-opt the conversation or showboat their opinions. There are plenty of those guys out there, doing the hard work with us — and they deserve way more credit than Feminist Frank is getting.\n\nLadies, I’m sure you have experienced this before. You are having a perfectly good flirtation session with a perfectly hot guy when all of a sudden … he ruins everything. The other night, I was at a party, talking with a guy I found extremely attractive and cool. We were wrapping up the conversation, about to exchange contact info, when he made a serious misstep. He reached down underneath his chair and pulled out a giant bicycle helmet and PUT IT ON. He looked so ridiculous that I couldn’t take him seriously. I fully support bicycle riding, especially with the proper safety precautions, but couldn’t he have waited until we parted ways to put the stupid thing on? Sigh. Foiled by a bicycle helmet. After the jump some more flirtation killers sure to spoil a good vibe. Add yours in the comments.\n\nBoogers. Snot or dangling boogers are just too hard for me to ignore. Perhaps I am immature. I just can’t.\nImproper use of basic grammar. I ain’t really feelin’ that.\nAnnoying texts. If a flirtation moves to text, sentiments such as “C U L8R” or the excessive use of emoticons kills any glimmer of hope. We are no longer in middle school.\nThe offering of illegal substances. I don’t take drugs from strangers and I don’t date strangers who offer me drugs. Any questions? \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?RedFlagsToWatchForInOnlineDating END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?CanYouEverBeAPriorityWhenYoureDatingA URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?CanYouEverBeAPriorityWhenYoureDatingA DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20230313T230000Z DTEND:20230314T230000Z CREATED:20250314T152908Z DATE-MOD:20250314T152908Z SUMMARY:Can You Ever Be a Priority When You’re Dating a Single Parent NAME:Can You Ever Be a Priority When You’re Dating a Single Parent DESCRIPTION:Is He Assertive or Just Angry?

You guys are makin’ me blush!\n\nSince when did being female, educated, and financially independent become mutually exclusive with men paying for our dinner?? No one here has tried to assert that us single women want to be treated equally as men in the dating arena. (In the workplace, when it comes to salary for the same job/skills/effort – okay yes we do and we can have that debate at another time.) Here, we are talking about dating, and if you try and play the “equality” argument you are going to get owned. There is no such thing as equality in dating, pretty sure we’d all be single. You men if anything should be grateful for just how easy it is for you these days. And if you’re bold enough to bitch about spending $ on your date – then YOU my friend are the problem and you are most certainly NOT worth dating.\nOh and what is this myth about girls getting guys to take them out on dates for the free dinner!? I do not know ONE SINGLE woman that would do that. I know I sure as hell am not going suffer through a tedious dinner date w/ a guy I don’t like.

So great to hear the perspective of someone who is happily married! I think your comment explains the entire situation perfectly. The truth is, when a guy really likes you (like enough to one day marry you) he WANTS to take care of you. All the other bullshit stops mattering. Whether he has the money, whether he thinks it is an unfair/outdated rule – none of it matters. A guy who really likes you, wants to take care of you AND the result is a very happy girl. Like I want to spend the rest of my life with you happy. Thanks so much for your comment and your support.\n\n-Cali \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?FindYourNextMommyAndWatchForYourNextPa END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?WhenYourMarriageFeelsLonelyRebuildingInt URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?WhenYourMarriageFeelsLonelyRebuildingInt DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20230317T230000Z DTEND:20230318T230000Z CREATED:20250318T162546Z DATE-MOD:20250318T162547Z SUMMARY:When Your Marriage Feels Lonely: Rebuilding Intimacy and Connection.

None of which means they will be a good boyfriend/husband or even be willing to take on that role at all.\n\nThink about it: we’ve all known a ton of guys who fit this profile: mid-30s, athletic (has a dog that he goes running with), successful man, driven at his job (so he doesn’t job-hop) and makes good money (doesn’t need parental help) and invests that into the purchase of an apt/coop/condo/house, has the same friends that he met in high school and his college fraternity…has a different girl every night from when he is 25 until…as long as he still looks hot. He has had little to no relationships and has to desire to change that. But he hits every point on your list (as for the sycophants and emotional maturity, no one can know that until they get to know them but on paper he hits all your points)\n\nWe’ve all known this guy, probably at least 100 of them. And in NYC they are a dime a dozen. I’d almost venture to say that they are more the norm than not (although owning is tough but the same rental apt for 10 yrs is as good as owning in NYC as far as showing commitment…not bailing every time they raise the rent).\n\nI am not saying that the guy who commits is a great guy or even a good guy. He could have numerous multi-year relationships under his belt but still be a shitbag and an awful, cheating, abusive boyfriend. Or maybe he’s just a lame, mediocre, ambivalent guy who tends to take his women for granted. Or maybe he’s actually a great boyfriend.\n\nHowever, if all we are judging is one’s ability to commit (not their likelihood of being a good partner), then Mr. Shitbag does qualify as being more likely to commit. Although, any sane woman should run from him away as fast as she can. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?WhenYourMarriageFeelsLonelyRebuildingInt END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?WhiteLies URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?WhiteLies DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20220319T230000Z DTEND:20220320T230000Z CREATED:20250320T164316Z DATE-MOD:20250320T164316Z SUMMARY:White Lies NAME:White Lies DESCRIPTION:He Went to War and Came Back a Changed Man (https://bit.ly/4bCTPeO)\nUnmasking Hidden Unhappiness in Marriage (https://bit.ly/3XYmpBu)\nWorkaholic Heartbreak: When Success Costs Your Marriage (https://bit.ly/4hmImRV)\nRecession Realities: When Financial Stress Tests a Marriage (https://bit.ly/4kACG9E)\nWhen Unemployment Tests Marriage (https://bit.ly/3RgepYW)\nMovies That All Women Should See To Understand Men (https://bit.ly/3RhVRaJ)\nLove Lies and Responsibility (https://bit.ly/3Y0Q64V)\nThe Dating Mishaps of the Ladies of Love Twenty (https://bit.ly/3DTY35d)\nThe Black Male Preference Privilege (https://bit.ly/3RoJzxb)\nAnatomy of a Great (Reality) Relationship (https://bit.ly/3RjLaV4)\nYour Rear End or Your Pride (https://bit.ly/3DQedfU)\nWhy Splitting Costs Isn't Splitting Love (https://bit.ly/3Y24B8F)\n(Broken) Laws of Attraction (https://bit.ly/3RgxeLs)\n\nI think that we look back on relationships, ex’s, and lovers with a distorted lens. So frequently, at least for my friends and me, we’ll leave unhappy relationships only to look back and say “He really wasn’t that bad. He had his sweet moments when he did special little things.” When more often than not those special little things (flowers, cards, small gifts) were fabrications told to our friends to justify being with somebody who preferred gaming, drinking, and time with friends over spending time with you. White lies told to friends so they didn’t tell us to leave him for being no good for us. Why didn’t we want to leave him? Simple, we’d already told ourselves a thousand little lies to make him our “dream man” and we couldn’t possibly leave a man with so much potential! (Read previous blog: “falling in love with potential)\n\nThis projecting doesn’t just end with men though. Sometimes a woman will lie to herself about how appreciated she is at work. Inside we know that we aren’t being paid enough but if anyone asks we will tell them, “Oh, they know they would be lost without me.” In truth, they might be lost without you, but they are still blindly ignorant of this fact.\n\nThere are so many aspects that we will lie to ourselves and others about. We will pretend to be in a better place financially before admitting to others that we may not be able to afford the same things as them. We will talk up our important at work, within relationships, etc to give us more worth. These small exaggerations are still lies. They make us feel better about things we may have insecurities about. Sometimes we lie to make ourselves sound more exciting to others, maybe add some titillating details to a night that didn’t actual occur. They start out so innocent, but they have a way of getting away from us.\n\nI sometimes realize I’m doing this, and sometimes I don’t. I don’t know why I feel the need to exaggerate things…things with no real meaning. I’m not making up that instead of saying, “I had a great night tonight, Jewels.” He really said, “This was the best night of my life and I think I might be in love with you.” I don’t go overboard with things…but that’s not the point…why do I do this at all!?\n\n\n“The most common lie is that which one lies to himself; lying to others is relatively an exception.” Friedrich Nietzsche\n\nA friend of mine thinks it’s because I’m white and all white people lie. I’m not sure how valid this is. Maybe it has something to do with having such an awesome imagination that I feel guilty not using it. Either way…I’m not sure that I’m hurting anyone…except maybe myself. You are probably reading this now wondering how honest I have been while writing this, and previous, blog entries. I promise you that I have not lied, exaggerated, or fabricated any of my blogs. This is meant to be an honest and frank journal for myself and lying here would be totally counterproductive. So rest easy, Reader, and know that what you read here is nothing more than the honest and often random ramblings of a woman finding her way in the world.\n\nSo I guess my question to you is: Do you do this too? Have you stopped short when telling a story when you realized “Why did I just say that? That didn’t actually happen!?” Have you found yourself in a tangle of little lies that added up? Do you lie to yourself about your job, relationship, and your own feelings? It’s not an easy thing to realize…that even if my lies hurt nobody…I’m still a liar.

I'm a perfectionist...and I feel like I could do a lesser post...so back off!\n\nLast night I was driving to my friends house and I was listening to my Josh Groban Christmas album on my ipod (plugged into my AUX...not with my ear pods in) and singing away while I sat in some traffic. Then a song I hadn't heard came on and I cried. I mean...full fledged tears running down my cheeks and I tried to make sure my makeup didn't smudge (cause I'm girlie like that). I would be okay then the refrain hit and I cried again. I got to the hiccuping stage and everything. I know-I'm special-still something about this song just hit a chord with me.\n\nI was listening to the lyrics and I swear to you I thought, "Rita would love this song. This song is going to make her cry too." So I decided to share it. I'm dedicating this song to lovely Rita over at The Adventures of Cinderita. I know you are having a rough time right now and that you don't need cheering. I get that but all the same I just know that this song will mean to you what it means to me. Enjoy it.\n\n\n\nNow that I am crying all over again it is time for me to go and get some wrapping done. I hope everyone had/is having a wonderful weekend.

Boy goes on date(s) with girl. Boy realizes that he is not into girl. Boy doesn’t call girl. Girl may attempt contact with boy. Boy ignores and fades into nothing. Girl eats caramels and moves on. The end.\n\n\nwww.nataliedee.com\n\nI’ve been faded many a time in my life. I’ve even done some fading myself. The Fade is an established social convention indicating at least one party’s lack of interest in the other.\n\nHowever, I’m not sure that all Parisian men are as familiar with the Fade as we are in the anglophone dating world.\n\nI have attempted, on multiple occasions, to fade my way out of undesirable entanglements here. According to past experiences on American soil, this should have gone off without a hitch.\n\nBut, of course, upon arrival in Paris, hitches abounded, and the most illustrative example is someone to whom I refer as Mr. Gym Stalker.\n\n *\n\nMr. Gym Stalker worked the front desk at my gym. While I didn’t pay much attention to the front desk staff at the time, my gym buddy, the Irish Parisienne, pointed out to me that Mr. Gym Stalker had developed a little crush on me.\n\nI laughed it off and just continued along my merry little way.\n\nBut one day, as I was on my way out, he summoned me over and told me that he needed to ask me about something.\n\nMr. G.S. : “I noticed that you don’t come here as often as you used to.”\n\nMan-shopper : “Yeah, I moved. I only work out here if I’m in the neighborhood. I go to a different location now.”\n\nMr. G.S. : “Here’s the thing. I’ve been working here for two years now, and I can’t work out here anymore because people recognize me while I’m working out, assume that I’m on duty, and bother me.”\n\nMan-shopper : “Uhhh, okay….”\n\nMr. G.S. : “It’s really difficult for me to motivate myself to work out at other locations, so I was wondering if you’d like to work out sometime at the location that you go to now. Planning to meet up with people motivates me more than if I were to just go by myself.”\n\n\nwww.nataliedee.com\n\nMan-shopper : “Oh, ok, gym buddies are cool. Well, I go to spin class, you’re welcome to join me.”\n\nAnd I thought that’d be it. I didn’t think that it would be a big deal, since I didn’t intend on returning to this gym location anymore. My move was finally official, and it was no longer convenient for me to trek out there. So, in my mind, this wasn’t a date, and I didn’t give him my number. This was just a… a nothing.\n\nBut then the phone calls started.\n\nI had that gym’s phone number programmed into my phone, and I noticed that the gym would be calling me everyday, but nobody ever left a message. I didn’t bother call back, as I figured that if the gym had official business with me, they’d leave a message.\n\nAfter a few weeks of this, I began to get lots of calls from a mobile number that I didn’t recognize, and sometimes from a masked phone number. Again, I don’t answer or return calls unless I know the number or if I’m expecting a call. These calls were really starting to concern me, as they would occur at least several times per day, sometimes as late as 11 at night.\n\nI decided to approach this matter as if the caller were an undesirable and clueless suitor. I figured, the Fade should work eventually, right? I’ll just sit tight and be unresponsive until he gets the point and goes away.\n\nA couple of months later of these persistent phone calls, I began to think that my phone was possessed. Who the hell would keep calling me like this without leaving a message??\n\n\nwww.nataliedee.com\n\nI lived in fear of my phone.\n\nI turned off its ringer.\n\nOne fateful day — my birthday, actually — I get a text message from the mystery mobile number.\n\n“Hi, I just wanted to wish you a happy 27th birthday. All the best, Mr. G.C.”\n\nSo let’s recap the horribleness of this situation:\n\nMr. G.C. pulled my mobile number from the gym’s client files and proceeded to harass me for months without leaving a voicemail.\n\nMr. G.C. then pulled MY BIRTHDAY from my file and used the number acquired by inappropriate channels in order to harass me further.\n\nMy Fade failed miserably.\n\nIt had nothing to do with my technique. It is physically impossible to botch a Fade. Non-response is the easiest cop-out thing to do in the world.\n\nBut some creeptastic, stalkerish, dodgy Parisian men simply refuse to be Faded.\n\nHowever, this is not to say that the Fade doesn’t have its uses on the Parisian scene. Even if the Fade fails miserably as a suitor-ditching technique, it is, however, a great way to determine whether one needs to consider taking out a restraining order. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?MsFadingFailure END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?OhYouCanCookImInLoveWithYou URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?OhYouCanCookImInLoveWithYou DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20220326T230000Z DTEND:20220327T220000Z CREATED:20250327T165015Z DATE-MOD:20250327T165015Z SUMMARY:Oh you can cook, I’m in love with you NAME:Oh you can cook, I’m in love with you DESCRIPTION:Marriage vs. Addiction: Winning the Battle for Love (https://bit.ly/4j71lkI)\nMarriage Without Intimacy: Can Love Survive the Distance?

You don’t have to be logical at all with your reasons for why you break up with her…the point is that you give ANY reason, just like falling in love with her. “Oh you can cook, I’m in love with you. What are those shoes you’re wearing? Black shoes? No I hate black shoes, we’re broken up.” Like, it can be just complete arbitrary illogical nonsense…that’s all you self-amusing and it keeps her going “omg wtf is with this guy lol I can’t keep up!! He’s crazy lol!!”\n\nBut step back and look at that logically, what’s going on there? You’re leading the convo, you’re setting the frame, and she’s playing catch-up to you leading the interaction.\n\nCompare that to “Do you like Band Blah?

I’m not a big fan, I mean they’re okay but I think their older songs were better…like do you know this one song–” zzzzzzzzzzzzzzz…\n\nWhich interaction is more fun and pushing the girl through more of an emotional rollercoaster, you know?\n\n“After a few seconds, I’m like ‘remember that time we broke up. listen, I didn’t mean all of that. You just make me really mad sometimes.’”\n\nFucking lol. This is awesome. I’m probably going to steal it.

I just can't get to know other guys when I really want to get to know just one guy in particular.\n\nThis was pretty evident on my date with Smooch the other night. I warned him earlier in the day that I was getting over a cold -- this was somewhat true (I seem to have had a mild cold for the past few weeks) -- but I mainly wanted to establish that this would be a relatively nookie-free night. (note: not sure what YOUR definition is of "nookie" -- in this case, I'm just referring to kissing)\n\nI'm sure he sensed something was different -- it just wasn't as comfortable and easy as it had been on our two previous dates. Who knows - things might have been different if we had carried on dating consistently after our first date in the end of August. But it just is how it is. So.\n\nCapt Awesome and I have been emailing and texting every day. We have a fabulous, long date planned for tomorrow... and he has already invited me to a party next week.\n\nAND... I did a bit of cybersnooping, and discovered two things:\n1. he took down his Jdate profile -- wow!\n2. we're not Facebook friends, but he has no privacy settings up, which means I can read his wall, check out his pics, etc even though we're not FB "friends". In one status update, he wrote that he was having a particularly good week -- when a friend inquired about that, he responded that work was going well and he'd "met a new girl".\n\nI'm just feeling giddy and smiley about him right now. And if I hear from Smooch again? I'm not sure. Do I tell him that I've met someone? (perhaps a bit premature) Or do I tell him that work / life is too busy right now, and maybe we can touch base in a few weeks? Hm. Will cross that bridge when I get to it. (interesting sidenote: it just happens that Smooch wrote to one of my friends on Jdate this week -- of course, he has no idea that she's my friend. Coincidence.) \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?AndInTheLead END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?SundayWeighInAndUmMyBoyfriend URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?SundayWeighInAndUmMyBoyfriend DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20230409T220000Z DTEND:20230410T220000Z CREATED:20250410T152531Z DATE-MOD:20250410T152531Z SUMMARY:Sunday weigh-in... and um, my "boyfriend" (???)

(https://bit.ly/4jntAeQ)\n\nGood news: I managed to lose 2.4 lbs this past week, bringing me back to my most recent low weight of 132.8 – big celebration! (confirms that last week’s gain was indeed most likely due to PMS – thanks for all your knowing words of support!).\n\nNow – got to keep this loss moving along. 130 is a big hurdle I haven’t crossed in years, so that’s my current goal – to jump that hurdle!\n\nIt’s been a fun weekend, with lots of TC time. We enjoyed a rather elegant dinner out last night, with both of us drinking a bit too much – wine pairings can be fun, but dangerous! But WOW, did he look dapper, all dressed up!\n\nTowards the end of the night, in a slightly inebriated state, I asked TC how I should introduce him today – I was bringing him to an event where he was likely to meet some of my friends. At first he joked, what about “gentleman caller”? Or “lov-ah” – but you have to say it like that, “LOV-AH”! (yes, he's the joking type) He soon admitted that recently, in conversations with some of his friends, it felt natural for him to refer to me as his “girlfriend”, since we’ve already established that we’re only dating one another, and he’s “enjoying the progression of the relationship”.\n\nAs far as that last line -- at least I THINK that's what he said! I know he used the word “relationship”, and even in the moment, I found myself wishing I had a tape recorder so I could remember exactly what he was saying. Damn wine, doing fuzzy things to the memory!\n\nToday at the event, when the moment came for me to introduce him to a group of friends (acquaintances, really), I quickly said, “This is my boyfriend, [TC]”. (I had to say it quickly, for fear that I'd choke on the words!) I’m not sure how much he remembered of last night’s conversation, but he didn’t seem at all fazed by the intro. I’m not sure if I’m really ready to jump into full “boyfriend / girlfriend” jargon (we’ve only been dating a little over a month), but I think if we ease into it like a warm bath, that will be the most natural way to go.\n\nIt’s been in the back of my mind: when / how to tell him about the blog? This blog has been an amazing source of catharsis for me these past 10 months – when I was having my most depressing and frustrating dating experiences, I found out through reader comments (and other bloggers) that I’m certainly not alone in these feelings. And I even made a Real Live Friend though our blogs, Cute Jewess.\n\nI think I’ll know when the time is right – and it’s not just yet. TC is a pretty open-minded and laid-back guy (two of the many things I like about him)… and I sense that he’ll be nonplussed when I tell him about the blog. Eventually. \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?SundayWeighInAndUmMyBoyfriend END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?LaVidaVegas URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?LaVidaVegas DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20230414T220000Z DTEND:20230415T220000Z CREATED:20250415T154535Z DATE-MOD:20250415T154535Z SUMMARY:La Vida Vegas NAME:La Vida Vegas DESCRIPTION:We Lived Separate Lives (https://bit.ly/4icCU4f)\nWe Were Living Like Roommates (https://bit.ly/3RgT69H)\nThe Real Reason You Haven't Found Your Perfect Partner (https://bit.ly/4igvRYq)\nWhy Aren't You Married?

Love Vegas I do, but a gambler I am not.\nQTMama gave me some advice on why I seem not to be attracting men in bars. I took her advice and promptly got molested by a short Hawaiian dude. Short dude asked me in the middle of a loud crowded bar, “Are you a sexual person?” I did not answer. A few minutes later, QTMama was called in to rescue me. This is what I get for taking advice.\nEven after the debacle of drunkenness that was Thursday night/Friday morning, I was oddly not slowed down in my drinking at all. Not once on this entire trip did I get a hangover. And after that night I did not throw up again. I believe my liver is actually angry now because I haven’t had a single drink since I got back. I should look into solving that.\nFolks, there was a whole lot more booze. QTMama and I would go out at night and not get home until it was light again the next morning. Vegas will forever be partying all night and endless alcohol in my mind. And I fully intend to prove that if/when I ever go back.\nAnd here’s the last thing. On Sunday, QTMama and I got ready to go back home. We packed and chatted and laughed and generally tried to ignore the fact that we were preparing to leave. I feel safe speaking for her for just a moment to say that we both had an absolutely amazing time. And not just because of Vegas baby! And not just because of the booze. We both made a fast and strong friendship that weekend. I am not ashamed to say I got a little teary as we said our goodbyes.\n\nSo when do we go back??? \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?LaVidaVegas END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?TableRondeLesEtatsGenerauxDesMigrations URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?TableRondeLesEtatsGenerauxDesMigrations DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20251115T080000Z DTEND:20251115T160000Z CREATED:20251112T014229Z DATE-MOD:20251112T143309Z SUMMARY:Table ronde « Les Etats Généraux des Migrations » NAME:Table ronde « Les Etats Généraux des Migrations » DESCRIPTION:Cette journée EGM est mise en place par le Collectif d’associations ligérienne PAR « Pour que personne ne dorme à la rue » (environ 25 associations ou collectifs). personnealarue@orange.fr \n\nUne journée pour se rencontrer, faire connaissance avec les autres associations, partager nos expériences et nos difficultés, écouter la parole de migrants …et mettre du lien entre nous pour que nos voix portent un peu ...\nStands associatifs, tables rondes, repas sur réservation, concert ... \nSource: https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?TableRondeLesEtatsGenerauxDesMigrations LOCATION:Salle Montagnon, Av Maurice Thorez 42183 La Ricamarie END:VEVENT BEGIN:VEVENT UID:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?ConcertLesFreresDanzinTrio URL:https://wiki.ctc-42.org/?ConcertLesFreresDanzinTrio DTSTAMP:20260512T115121Z DTSTART:20251214T150000Z DTEND:20251214T180000Z CREATED:20251203T125317Z DATE-MOD:20251203T125317Z SUMMARY:Concert Les Frères Danzin Trio NAME:Concert Les Frères Danzin Trio DESCRIPTION:Par la Maison Mémérou.\nEntrée libre au chapeau.
