Hello again….how are you?
Calling him an asshole in general would be a closed mind im sure….but when I say he turned out to be an asshole in my post its my diary its my journal and my mind is open knowing there are assholes in the world, I don’t feel that’s having a closed mind…I don’t just go on them couple of things that were said in my post to figure that he is an asshole, but I feel that I am very aware and I am not wrong and nor is he…our views don’t match so there’s nothing compatible about us being together
Like I said this was my first date and I knew by the end of the night it was our last one too, I can’t help how I feel there my emotions and feelings!
I am not a bad person you know?, admittedly I have had violent and abusive relationships and am very aware of assholes, he is not an asshole in that respect,
The advice I would had give to somebody who would have wrote my post…….is
“Better luck next time” “don’t give up” “not all are assholes”
But I do see your point…..take care

You're welcome.Calling him an asshole is NOT a closed view? Is not saying that he's wrong, and you are right?
And I have NOT come to a conclusion about you or your relationships - I stated a view and asked a question, based on what you wrote. That this view does not fit with yours (or many of the other commenting bloggers) is just par for the course.
And, of course, you ARE entitled to not create relationships. But re-read your post and ask yourself (and answer YOURSELF as honestly as you can) just what advice you'd give someone else if that was all the information given.

Gotta kiss alot of frogs
....before you meet a prince

Finding out that someone isn't quite what you wanted isn't a waste of time, it's more like: 1 down, 10 billion men to go !!

I'm glad you at least had the date, Symph.
Look on the bright side if you can. At least you didn't waste a whole lot of time on him. You know what I mean. Some pretend to like certain things about you, and pretend to like the kids, etc., then months later tell you, "Oh well, I really don't want to raise someone else's kids", or "You're not really what I was looking for". I hate that most of all.

hello L.E.Gant
thanks for sharing your males prospective on things, this was my first date since I had split up with my husband some months ago!
firstly I don't see how him or you can come to that conclusion when you have never been in that prediciment, you are judging without the situation occurring!
secondly what you see from my writing has nothing to do with my personal relationships...you cant come to the conclusionon like that
and thridly I never said he was wrong and I was right and I don't complain of the lacks!
but I am not prepared to be around somebody with closed views....they are not my type!

You don't need someone like him
but do keep an open mind and someone will turn up when you least expect it. Be yourself and if a man is relaxed in himself and you like him go for it

A Male Perspective...
Maybe it's something that you have said that gets him to express what he thinks. As Cassandra's Instant Answers put it - people want certainty. They don't like change, and anything that represents change has to be viewed with distrust.
I don't think I'm particularly macho, but I don't like tattoos of women (come to think of it, I don't like tattoos on ANYBODY). Rasing children is always a personal choice, and I don't know how I would have reacted to working with kids that were not mine (or directly related to me) - never needed to make the decision, but I suppose I'd have given a similar answer to your male friend.
I know that I'm opinionated, hate people disagreeing with me (unless they can prove I'm wrong), and am as stubborn as they come. But then, from your writings, you're opinionated, stubborn and many other similar adjectives.
So, why do you really think he's wrong and you are right? Maybe if you decide to make a relationship work, instead of complaining about others' lacks...

Still looking for mister right I see. Maybe you should give us ugly guys a shot. We're much easier to pusuade. In fact will probably agree with most anything just to go out with a woman. Tha's alright I've given up on it anyway. Thanks for the welcome back, hope your mood has improved.

It depends, I guess. I got very bitter for a while and I think that vibe that I put out kept me from attracting good men.

Keep looking
as my grand mother use to say - there's a lid for every pot. You may have to kiss ( or not kiss ) a lot of frogs to find the one true Prince.

Symph..
What part did you want to know more about? "Mad Money" is just a set amount of cash I carry on a date for if I get pissed off and don't want to wait for them to take me home. It's happened a few times. I did give a few black eyes back as a teenager because hands didn't stop roaming when I said to stop. As far as being verbal. I used to be alot quicker to shove than to say something. Now, I just say it like it is. I won't waste my time on a dickhead!

I would have said, "Gee too bad you'll NEVER get to see my tatoos..." and left it at that. I hope you at least ate dessert and left him with the bill....
Don't worry your time will come.

Symph,
You're nicer than me. I'd have said,"Thanks for your time, however, since I have kids and am a tattooed freak I'll spare you from wasting anymore of my time. Bite me!" Then I'd walk out. I carry what I call "Mad Money" on a date. This is from the days as a teenager when I gave more than one date a black eye and took a cab or bus home!
