    Excuse me?

    You want me to move a thread full of men whining about their life partner to the ladies corner? A place that was specially created to make women feel more at ease on SRP, and where crap like this is a banning offense?

    Short answer: NO.

    Hahaha, Take it easy there, Bruno. If my post wasn't easily recognizable as being a tongue in cheek joke, then humor has apprently become as much of a lost art as straight razor shaving.


    Can a mod please move this to the "Really? Are you kidding me?" forum?

    Studies have shown that if you attempt humor without aides like emoticons (they're there for a reason) you have a 50% chance of being misunderstood. You meant tongue in cheek, but I only see the words.

    Additionally, I have a high fever, clogged up nose, back aches and the feeling that someone is turning my brain into snot with a blender. Not really tuned in for attempted humor.

    She refuses to get help. She is most definitely Bi Polar and Depressed, maybe manic depression, I'm not sure, but when someone sits in a room crying and say's "life sucks" and has absolutely no reason too, believe me. There's a problem. I do everything I can, If i was any more supportive, I'd be a bra.
    Ohhh, dude, I hadn't seen THIS post!
    If that's the case, and you've "been there, done that" on being an emotional tampon for her and all...then my advice (as a woman) is to leave. Move out, or move her out. Ditch her ass.

    True confession: I was in a lesbian lifestyle for about 15 years before the Lord changed my heart and took away all desire for other women (but that's another story.) The relevant part is this: I lived with a depressed woman for 7 year.

    They were the 7 longest, most awful years of my life. I will NEVER, EVER "go there" with a depressed person again.

    Sorry, depressed folks, but I paid my compassion "gold star" dues. No more!

    Get out of it, since she is refusing help. And you have my deepest sympathy. I hope you at least got a good laugh out of my comments, but seriously...I been there. It ain't fun. I'll pray for you and for her.

    Huh? How comes I needs all the help I can get? I really think I'm doing just fine...and honestly, I'm having a blast--the vast majority of guys here are GREAT!

    No 'roid rage here...that's like, so "25 years ago!" (I swore that s*** off forever in January of 1985.)

    Handbags at dawn, hmm? That reminds me of one of my Ambien episodes about a year-and-a-half ago...I'd had a snootful the night before (about 4 ales), then made the mistake of taking Ambien CR to go to sleep.

    Next morning I'm out at the crack of dawn in my nightgown, slippers, and robe, toting my Bushmaster AR-15 loaded with a 30-round mag in a tactical sling, patrolling the perimeter around our home using my EOTech sight because I *thought* I heard a noise outside. (Meanwhile, hubby is still asleep, oblivious...)

    (I should mention that we live way out in the country, at the dead-end of a private gravel road, and our nearest neighbors are 1/2 mile away...so the only living creatures amused by this were some deer, raccoons, squirrels, wild turkeys, snakes and probably a few of our cats.)

    Moral of the story: never, ever, ever make strange noises anywhere NEAR Tam's property! (We own 16 acres.)

    ON THE CHOCOLATE, ETC:

    That's a great idea to keep some on hand. Seriously! If you want to have yourself a little "insurance" policy, I'd keep on hand:

    1. A few dark chocolate bars (or whatever kind she really likes, I like white choc. myself.)
    2. Some really touching Blue Mountain cards (i.e., like greeting cards)
    3. Phone number of nearby flower shop OR a sharp knife if you live near where you can go cut a wildflower or two (they're FREE)
    4. Anything else you know she loves.
    5. Her favorite alcohol (for me, maybe Caymus Cab Sauvignon 2004...)

    Then when you got trouble, you go to your insurance policy stuff! Yes, I actually think this is a very good ideal.

    I think the hormones thing is overblown. Hormones are not to blame for everything and every mood. More often, it's probably that her boss or a co-worker ticked her off at work...or maybe her Mom called and gave her grief. It happens (I know!)

    You some kind of atheist, or just trying to be funny at the Catholic's expense? (I am not Catholic, but am Christian.)

    Hes just being himself! I believe in God and he believes solely in science, so, we poke a little fun at each other now and again!

    Mmm, yes, I can see your theory, especially given that flimsy excuse of a cover name! Pretty funny, really.

    It's a bit harsh to accuse us of mysogyny for making a joke ortwo at women's expense.
    Agree.

    Us men have to put up with more insults than women.
    Hmm...not so much agree. That one's a tough call. Think of all those "dumb blonde" and "redhead" jokes. Depends on where and what you read, but I'd say it's roughly 50/50. What I will say is that men jokes are more out in the open, whereas women jokes are not usually on prime time.

    As probably everyone on this forum already knows, I detest political correctness (PC) and refuse to bow to it.

    When was the last time you watched through a commercial break on TV without there being at least one advert portraying a man as an idiot? Equality of the sexes is a great idea, I hope we men get it one day.
    Agree strongly. One of my pet peeves is these stupid sitcoms that routinely present the Dad as a bumbling, clueless idiot. Then Mom is always wise and shrewd...but of course it's the 8-year-old kid who REALLY knows it all (Simpsons, etc.)

    It started with "All in the Family," and I firmly believe it's part of a calculated marketing plan to destroy the family in America. And sadly, it is largely succeeding.

    There are, of course, exceptions...Bill Cosby was a wonderful wise Dad in "The Cosby Show", and there are a few others..."The Unit" comes to mind. Of course, this brings up another problem..."Dad" is only allowed to be smart and wise if he is non-white.
