I'm just glad it wasn't one of my posts. He did get kind of a lecture, didn't he. I'm 50, and felt like answering for him "Yes Dad."

Naw, I was gonna give you a hard time for taking your Missus to San Antonio for the honeymoon. Were you living in New Braunfels at the time?  |

Dude had a failed first marriage that, looking back, he can see was a huge mistake. Young Guy (fellow community member, mind you) posts that's about to propose, says nothing about how excited he is, that he's met the love of his life, or any *feces* like that -- just chatters about a diamond ring and asks people to "talk me out of it". Dude wants to make sure that Young Guy about to take the plunge is sure, so Young Guy doesn't make the same mistake.
Maybe not the best written post, but I can't get too bent over that.

I think that the young guy is just kidding about the "talk me out of this". That he's planning this far in advance to propose is worth something. It's not like he and his girlfriend just used EPT and said "Oh *feces*! I guess we're getting married." |

[Acknowledging FGI content at golfhos] Going against my general commitment to keep over there over there and over here over here: I think in most cases when a man says things like "talk me out of getting married," it's generally understood to be a joke. Hell, yesterday I defined marriage to a coworker as "the time in a man's life when he loves a woman enough to give up everything he enjoys" which couldn't possibly be further from the truth. I think Dude in question never misses an opportunity to tell anyone who will listen about his failed first marriage, to assume or assert that his morals, values, and religion are or should be universal, and to generally post self pity under the guise of wanting to help others learn from his pathetic mistakes. There is a common aspect to each of his unusually high number of bad human encounters, interactions, and relationships that he seemingly doesn't recognize. Then again, it's no secret that I don't care for him very much, so it's possible, if not probable, that I'm looking at it through tainted lenses. [/Acknowledging FGI content at golfhos] |

No, we lived in Oklahoma City, but I loved the river walk and the Alamo. I had a good friend who went to Hawaii for two weeks on his honeymoon and came back just as white as he left. Now THAT's a good honeymoon!! Naw, I was gonna give you a hard time for taking your Missus to San Antonio for the honeymoon. Were you living in New Braunfels at the time? Hey, who cares where you go? The best kind of honeymoon is when go to Hawaii and come home with a moon tan. |

... it's possible, if not probable, that I'm looking at it through tainted lenses. It's a picture window, and you have company over. Just struck me as odd that Young Guy never once mentioned being excited, happy, found his soul mate ... nada. Maybe I'm just a pansy, though, and guys are never supposed to mention such things. I just assume Dude took it the same way and it struck a special chord with him. |

I just assume Dude took it the same way and it struck a special chord with him. So you'd go running into your men's grill at your golf club, drunk with the bliss of love, and yell out, "Hey, Everyone! I just want to say, I LOVE MY FUTURE WIFE!! She is going to be my soul mate for life!! Yada, yada, yada!!!" If something like that happened at my club, that room would empty fast....except for the psychiatrists, who would stick around long enough to hand you their business card. |

lol @ 'aske is dead'
blader rules with that post as usual
anyone that wants to help that guy out should point him to bluenile
then again, maybe not, since porkchop would then know about bluenile when he moves on to future failed marriage #4.
