People dumping their partners completely out of the blue..


Recommended Posts

I am 42. I think the only solution for me is an Asian mail order bride. Any one have experience with those?

 

LOL just go online dating. Surely there are plenty of 40-50 year olds looking for a partner.. unless you live in a small town in the country, then go for it!

40-50 yr olds. Hmm I would prefer someone younger. Sometimes I think I am the emotional equivalent of a 30yr old.

Yup. I'm screwed. Find myself attracted to younger women, but can't deal with their immaturity :( The FB, the constant need for attention, GIGS, the games, etc... Of course, I know not all younger women (early 30's) are like this, but many are.

It's funny that you mention this because I work with someone who is actually a mail order bride. She's 26, and she showed me a picture of her husband who is likely at least in his 50s. She seems happy to me, so maybe it works. I guess she wants to live here, and that was her only option. Who knows?

I blame social media to a large degree. It's like a game. How many people can I get to be my friends? How much attention can I get? How many guys/girls can hit on me. Any better than my current BF/GF? Too easy to be tempted by just a click click click. Especially for those with weak minds and poor convictions. :sick:

 

 

And here you go, something related to this I just saw:

Good article!! I find the correlation between NPD and social media quite interesting :) My ex, the one with strong NPD tendencies, is quite addicted to FB and social media. Funny thing is, when we first started dating, she had an old crappy flip phone and hated even using it for calls and texts. Then she got an iPhone and has slowly become attached to it and social media. By the end, she was on it all the time. I found it very disrespectful. Just another red-flag.

 

Me on the other hand... I don't even have a FB account and never plan on getting one :)

This is true of online dating as well. I'll just post a provocative selfie as my profile pic and see how many guys flood my email box. Then I can use the attention to boost by already bloated ego and decide which victim I want to go on a date with. What is the worst that can happen, a free meal with a good looking guy? Heck, I can even flirt text another guy while I'm on a date with this other guy.

^^^ Yeah. I call it 'que' dating. Cause you're always moving up and down in the que. Sometimes near the top and sometimes near the bottom. Constantly in motion... Ironically though, I have had decent luck with OLD :confused:
