I disagree. I'm thinking that was the best solution for that particular problem.

Re: being single
Yeah, that's tough to deal with.
I had to deal w/ that a little bit w/ my wife but not because my friends were too "perfect" its because when my friends get together we're typically a bunch of drunken idiots!!
Its gotten better as we've gotten older thankfully.
Unfortunately she doesn't get along w/ many of their girlfriends though, I chalk that up to women being women. Sorry in advance ladies....

I'm not sure if cheap shoting some dude is good for either side. You're really lucky you didn't go to jail and have assult charges brought against you.AWvsCBsteeeerike3 wrote:I disagree.

Re: being single
Maybe I'm wrong, but don't you think there has to be a certain level of maturity to sustain a relationship? I mean anyone can thrown down or date, but to maintain an actual relationship both parties have to be a little bit mature. Her texting at the table, getting drunk, flirting with other guys openly, and causing a fight = high school.
All you need now is to throw in sarcastic insulting comments, pouting and not speaking to you because of some small imagined slight and she can go all the way back to middle school and there she can meet up with someone else I know.
And even though no one is happy 100% of the time, you can't expend all of your energy and time trying to build someone else up or force something to work if it's just not going to work. Your girl sounds exhausting.
Be Happy! I'm one work day into singlehood and so far so good. Being alone is under-rated.

Re: being single
I wouldn't consider it a cheap shot since he had the gall to call me a loser and threaten to kick me out so he could continue to hit on my gf. He should have been ready for it, or he shouldn't have said it. Thems is fightin wordscardinalkarp wrote:I'm not sure if cheap shoting some dude is good for either side.
