married men

**limewave** · 12-07-2006, 06:08 AM

I have a couple of women friends that put their wedding rings on their right hand and turn the diamond around when they go out to clubs. They only do this 2 or 3 times a year. I was shocked to learn this when I went with them one time. From my observation, they wanted to get as many guys to hit on them as possible so they could go home and make their husbands jealous. It seemed like playing with fire to me.

Anyway, I would say it's 50-50 across the board.

Oh, definitely playing with fire. A girlfriend of mine used to do that; 'till hubby checked up on her. The divorce will be final in a few months.

The bottom line is, there are a lot of really emotionally insecure people out there who still need constant reassurance of their attractiveness and want to have their "datability" validated by others even when they already have a relationship. I've seen plenty of this low self-esteem driven behavior from both genders.

The anonymity of the internet makes it all the easier to lie about being married (or involved) when communicating with others.

I think this problem however has been going on for centuries. Some people are sincere and honest and some just aren't and never will be. Deception and honesty are not gender based.

Hellosunshine - if this is coming from a dating perspective, do you have court websites there to check on people? We have them here by state, and while they don't tell you if they're married, you can tell if a divorce if final, pending, etc. And anything on their record shows up. Of course, you can always google for a marriage license.....there are some advantages to the internet.

I have run into a few people that are married who claimed they were divorced. Or separated but looking. Be careful but don't be bitter by a few peoples poor judgement. Best of luck!

It's interesting a few years back I went through the online dating thing... of course I ran into those guys that fibbed about their marital status but what really amazed me is that going though the men, some honestly stated they were married... what???? If you are married why are you posting on with an online dating service? Although cheating has been going on for a long time (my x cheated on me leading to divorce back that was in 1979) I think it's gotten so much worse recently, within the last 10 years. People just don't take marriage seriously anymore. I have overheard young owmen talk about the fact that they are involved in their first marriage and next time around...

I don't know I'm upfront and honest to a fault. I assume everyone else is as well and am always burned...

Trust me, it's not just the men, both men and women and batting for either team.

But the honest ones are out there

Sleep is good.

Someone once told me...

You know you are a child when you never want to go to sleep.

You know you are an adult when all you want to do is sleep.

You know you are old when you no longer are able to sleep!

=sigh= I forgot what it's like to get a good night's rest.

Because of my current back injury, I've been given Vicodin... I can see why folks get hooked on this stuff. Last two nights I've actually gotten some rest; at least 6 hours sleep - Whoo Hoo! But I can't take this stuff forever (can I?).

any of you gals in Northern CA the Velo Girls have a coed ride for single cyclists....with a screening process.

I read in the ride report that Lorri asks all for a show of (gloveless) left hands before the ride and...because you can take that ring off jokingly announced that photos of the ride will be (and are) posted online.

So anyone not qualified to be dipping their toes in the dating pool risks "that the he)) were you doing at the

...."

The coed ride was last Saturday but is the first Saturday of the month.

There's a single girls who like girls ride the 2nd Saturday of the month. I just climbed out of the dating pool, toweling off, trying to get the water out of my ears....I'm not going.

I understand that we do not do the photo thing there because obviously not everyone is out to the same extent so that's understandable.

Both rides are relatively easy but tend to have two groups, fast group, slower group.

I wouldn't.

I have been dealing with some middle-of-the-road whiplash since my Beetle was creamed by a street sweeper last month. I have Vicodin. I don't have to take it every day, so I only take it occasionally. At first I was taking it every night. After a few days, I got in this really weird funk. Then I didn't take it for a while. But when I did, the next day I was in the weird funk again, barely willing to get out of bed, pissed off at everything. It took a couple of episodes for me to relate it to the Vicodin. I'm not saying that's THE cause, but it's enough of a correlation to make me pause before I take it again.

I've had it before for different things--ovarian cyst, herniated disks, and didn't notice this symptom, but it could just be I wasn't paying attention. But I think I've sworn off the stuff, pretty much.

Hope your back feels better soon. I once stood up, nearly sobbing, on a crowded airplane as much as they would let me for a whole flight from Tampa to Detroit because of a herniated disk. No fun.
