Hey, don't get me wrong, it isn't as though I just sit here all night waiting for something to happen, but I was hoping someone would be around sun. evening and when no one was, I logged off. Just imagine how surprised I was to see 4 unread staring at me when logged on to access Yahoo quotes and check the headlines. I mean, did I actually miss something or what. And of course, what with some new names one of which I've read elsewhere, I just can't stand to wait for the weekend. You know, this on-line thing is probably what is deteriorating my relationship with S.J. I've asked her if she would like to post under my name, but sometimes she say yes, yet mostly no. S.J., and don't get me wrong, is one of those people that doesn't seem happy if she isn't worrying about something. And then she gets frustrated at me because I'm not as concerned as she is about what she is worrying about at the time. Christine, your suggestions are noteworthy, but honostly, doesn't the fairytale end at some point, and reality set in. Now sure, I can understand that women as a rule want to be romanced, and by golly if any woman can find such a man then I say congratulations. But it is unrealistic to think that all men should be what each and every woman envisions them to be. What if I said something like, "Every woman should perform felatio on her husband at least once a day to show him how much she loves and appreciates him". After your mouth falls open and you get over the ridiculusness of such a statement, you'd be firing off all sorts of what kind of a S.O.B. are you (me). While it may very well fall into the fantasy catagory, I would no more want that of my wife than I would want her to be anything other than the person she is. By the same token, I would appreciate it if she too would recognize me for who I am and quit trying to mold me into the guy she wants me to be. I'm not saying she doesn't make some valid points, however, I can take the same reasoning she uses, turn it around, and then get- no, no, no, that doesn't apply. Hey, fair is fair. None of us are everything the other would like to have all the time. Well, maybe some of you are, but the majority aren't. I think some woman and men need to just GET OVER IT!!!, and get on with what is important in life recognizing the value of having one another. Of course, there are exceptions to the rule.
