He's logical and practical and pragmatic and sensitive and wise ... and he's honest about his own painful compromises in life.

You humble me with your kindness! And let me tell I’m hard to humble! LOL And I hope you know Ms. P that the feeling is mutual. Reading your posts make me feel sane…which is also no small achievement!

Well, I was reading your not-too-long-ago interaction with some of the MB women who, in my opinion, totally missed the important point you were trying to make ... a point I thought could have been beneficial to the intended person ...

I think that there are times where too much sympathy interferes with a person's incentive to change things that need changing ...

You follow?

Coach

I wanted you to know that at least one person of the female persuasion (me) 'got it' ... about where you were trying to go ... and you 'got it' that this was going to go nowhere fast ... smart to exit as you did.

bravo

All this affirmation…it’s going strait to my head! To be so appreciated by female strangers…for my simple common sense, yet to have a wife who most appreciates me because I’m a controlling, irascible SOB! LOL Talk about contrary!

…Of course she never would admit how much she loves my controlling attitude and ways…especially where she’s concerned… The woman lives to provide me with a challenge. I must admit she makes every day and adventure. Always probing and testing…

I wonder what it would be like to be married to some calm, quiet woman. Some one who isn’t always seeking new ways to get me to the insanity wholesale warehouse. LOL But what’s really funny is how jealous she is. Positive that any and every woman I speak to is plotting to jump my tired old bones. The woman is demented…she even loves when I put my arm around her and rudely (and I do mean rudely) walk her away from the strange men (and I do mean strange, like Outer Limits strange) she tends to attract at public gatherings.

By the way, I’m a former New Yorker by way of Boston Massachusetts who now resides in Aventura Florida. And let me tell you…living down here tends to be a bit like being a “Yankee in King Arthur’s Court.” Florida is a squirrelly kind of place. I mean the major contribution of Florida to American arts and sciences is the strip club! Need I say more?

Coach

PS. And can you guess who’s dying for me to take her to one?

Coach, just curious...how old are you? And how old are your kids?

Keep up the good work...and stay outta strip clubs.

Susan,
You want to know how old I am? LOL How about if I tell you how much money I make instead?

Will you accept a variable? Say between 45 & 55! LOL But I'll tell you this, I was feeling a lot younger then I do now...before my Ex WW became a WW. LOL This infidelity stuff will age you.

My kids are in there 20s now. And would string me up if I even ever considered divorcing their mother by the way. And yes they know what she did...she told them!

She is (and rightly so) the target of great love from them...and me as well! And loads of friends by the way! The woman is universally adored by all, the cheating b#tch! LOL Excuse me, the Ex cheating b#tch! And Susan I hope you can appreiate my NY humor and know that I am not calling my wife names in anger. I call her this with love and to her face (hard to believe I know) but she does take great pride in certain aspects of her personality that make that word totally apropos. LOL So just know please, that this is not said with a meanness of spirit.

Besides, she thinks I'm sexy! LOL So now you know why I question here tatse!

Coach
