See, you guys have to be careful how you put things. I guess I understand what you meant, but someone could easily interpret this like, "I prefer a half a man I can more easily control". I mean, haven't you already referred to yours as an abused dog?

 

I think most of us married guys would prefer to be thought of as having been matured by marriage, and not "downsized" by it. :)

 

This is exactly what it is about. I guess MM come pre-whipped and that makes it easier for a woman to keep them in line.

But what SGs take for granted, MMs appreciate, because they have a point of continuous comparison, in the M, not just the selective memory of failed previous Rs.

 

This morning when the alarm went off I put it on snooze so that MM and I could cuddle a bit more first before we had to get up for work. It cost 9 minutes of my life, and some heavier traffic, but the look of utter disbelief and overwhelming love in his face melted me. A SG would have thought nothing of it.

Now, I had interpreted her as approving the maturity of a married man. It would have been the single guy who didn't appreciate the moment yet who would have acted as though he were entitled to it, in her experience.

Nope, the "abused dog" metaphor was someone else's.

 

And no, controlling my MM is the last thing on my mind - he has a W to do that, anyway. I prefer a partner who's an equal, not a door mat.

So if his wife controls him and he is a doormat to his wife but you are equal to him then that means you are on a lower level than his wife along with him. You being equal and all and him just being a doormat.

not any more, tho she tries. He stuck out his counselling and worked through that. She didn't, and hasn't.

 

Which, I guess, is why he's chosen to be with me and not with her.

Yeah, as an OW, I'd like to know too.

This is a rather odd way of looking at things. Why does one have to be "above" or "below" the other - is life a ladder?
