I only know what information you provide, of course. You enjoy talking about yourself and your accomplishments in life, and have a way of turning a thread about apple juice into your college GPA or flight record, for example. I think I've heard more about you and your accomplishments in the last year or so than possibly my sisters and brother. You may not display the selfish qualities of a narcissist, but you'll have a hard time convincing me you don't receive personal gratification talking about (and letting everyone know) your attributes or accomplishments. But then again I'm ignorant, and could never display your cunning level of intelligence, so please forgive me and my ignorant assessment.
I wouldn't go so far as to care, but I do think it's annoying that people call that out. As far as the content being outlandish and nonsensical...fair game. I don't think anyone is. The GiB may because he doesn't seem to like being called a GiB. If I thought my life was superior to other people's lives, I wouldn't risk mine for them. I think you read into it for something to hold against me. I can't remember everything I've posted (I'm getting old), but I'm fairly confident I've only ever talked about my accomplishments when either questioned about my experience or when someone was curious. A thread about apple juice is being a little hyperbolic. I'm proud of myself and what Ive done, so I am inclined to talk about it, but the majority of my posts do not align with your accusation. Do I care to convince you? Nah. I'm going to defend myself, tell you that you're exaggerating, and go back to not caring. Once again, you are forgiven.
Is it wrong for a guy to believe that the chics that are doing him the most are the most serious about a serious relationship?
Non sequitur. Again, there is no necessary dissonance between narcissism and an affinity for the idea of going out in a blaze of glory.
Ah, I see where you're wrong. There is no prospect of dying in a blaze of glory anymore, at least for us. This isn't WW2. There's no Doolittle Raid.
No you don't, because I haven't said anything that isn't true. I don'tt know who the hell you think you're kidding.
But, they always claim to subscribe to morals, how can it be that they are not interested in being moral?
Do you find "chics" that sleep with you to be immoral? That may be your problem. I know plenty of principled woman who find using men to be immoral, but I definitely know more that are guilty of it. Who knows which came first the enablers or the users, but as a woman I will say a lot men tend to bring this behavior on themselves. I could have lived my entire life without ever working if I wanted, I could go out every night and not have to pay for (*)(*)(*)(*). Tell me if roles were reversed many men wouldn't fall into the same poor behavior of gold digging. The behavior is still disgusting and of weak character, but both sides are guilty of letting it happen
I don't consider chics that are moral enough to bear true witness to me regarding fornicating me into relationships to be a moral problem; what is more of a moral problem for me, is when women would rather resort to the abomination of hypocrisy and not get me laid, even if they are doing all of the other ones, in the mean time. I mean, like who needs that in a potential, long term and serious relationship. My only logistical problem is that Mr. Happy claims every woman is a keeper, potentially.
A bit off-topic from the origianl intent of the thread to discuss "loose women"... Generally speaking, some women do tend to marry for status while men tend to marry for the physical aspects of a person. You see CEO's of corporations marrying the receptionist or something along those lines...you would never see a female CEO marrying down...
What do mean by bear true witness? What does being moral have to do with it? I assuming you mean women are dishonest with you about what they truly want or how they truly feel about you. However when I read your posts in this thread I keep thinking of the Hannibal movie, Red Dragon. Anyway if that is what you mean being honest about how you feel and what you want (not transforming into a dragon), both genders are equally guilty of this. Some because they are deceitful and some because they don't know what the hell they really want or how they really feel.
The point is that I consider women who are willing to bear true witness to me and fornicate me into relationships to be more moral, than "free" women with whom I can not usually be as honest with for free, even when they claim to want honesty. If only women could say what mean and mean what they say, like when sufficient money is involved.
I see plenty of high status women with younger men. Ref Madonna, JLo, Cameron Diaz, Joan Collins, etc etc etc.
There are exceptions to every rule...and entertainers are typically flakey as it is. I wouldn't necessarily regard them as "high status"...Madonna dropped out of high school...I sure don't see her dating a guy with a Ph.D. anytime soon.. so for her marrying up doesn't take much. There are entertainers with actual dedication to a talent, for example Sarah Brightman, an opera singer...but Madonna is not even in the same league with her talent wise...she was just part of pop culture is all. You won't see a female medical doctor marrying a plumber...for example. Nothing against skilled labor by the way... however a male medical doctor may marry their receptionist. Guys don't care what a woman does for a living, or even if she works.
Guy Ritchie is an intelligent man from a good family (Scottish btw) and I thought US people revered the almighty buck. My husband is 11 years younger. My friends are almost all married to younger men. It's totally normal.
I did qualify my statement to be understood in a broader context. There will be exceptions... however in any social setting, the first question asked by a female...is typically so what do you do? Your car, your clothes, your job....all judged. A guy? Not as much concerned about that. Broadly stated of course. Perhaps this is changing as women become more independent. 60% of law students are now female, for example...therefore professional status and marrying "up" may not be as relevant but certainly in my day...in my 20's & 30's....every single conversation with a woman in a social setting began with ... "What do you do?"
The only thing listed there that matters to me is the car. A car can say a lot about a person. I made sure my fiancee takes good care of his. Not only because it can be indicative of the way he treats other property, but because if that dickhead wants to drive my car it better be kept in pristine condition. Clothes? Some people say you can learn a little about a person based on what they wear and I buy that to an extent. If he wore a suit and tie on all of our dates, I probably would have avoided him because that would seem too uptight to me.
Thank goodness for uniforms, because I have no taste in civilian clothes. And I've had the same haircut for 30 years.... If a woman is looking for style, I would be bypassed.
Me either. I wish I had someone to buy clothes for me. I have t-shirts and track pants, and my Han Soloesque white shirt and sweater vest style. I'm pretty unattractive in that regard. Same haircut? Yup.
