gripe of the day
If you're a married man and you're reading this... look down. If you
don't have a ring on your finger, think about this... you're wasting my time Yeah and if you are like my husband and take off your ring to do woodworking and then you put it somewhere and then you go and die -- it might be months before your wife can even find it, and she'll be really annoyed.

Well... I'm not exactly
divorced. We separated last week." Sheesh. I'm astounded by the number of people (men and women) who think being separated is equal to being single. Like I wanna be in *that* position? I think they call that being the "comfort" woman...you provide sympathy, affirmation of their masuclinity, sex of course until they have healed enough to move on. Yea yea, before the men get their tighty whiteys in a bunch, it's the same the other way around too...

'Kate Maybe you shouldn't look at every man you meet as anything more than a new acquaintance. You sound more like a predator hunting for prey. Additionally, don't forget that some men, and women wear wedding rings just to keep the predators at bay. I sure did whenever I travelled on business. Personally, I think that it's a sad statement the wearing a ring, or not wearing a ring really doesn't tell you much anymore. Lisa |

"V" wrote in message ...
I hear ya Kate! I read the ring was a metaphor in the OP. If a ring was mystical/magical enough to disuade behavior, women would find a way to have rings permanently attached. My husband didn't own a wedding ring because he worked construction and it could have been dangerous to wear. Seeking affection/attention from other women wasn't an issue... he had lots of issues, but that wasn't one of them. Some men do/say anything to get what they want, I suppose. (Look at Scott Peterson.) But, so do some single men. Married men can be great friends. But, sometimes the definition of friends is as different as can be between the two friends. I think women sometimes choose married men for intimate relationships because it actually derails a more intimate and committed relationship. iow, the woman needs to look to herself for the blame of these relationships taking over her life and time...
