Sorry for the thread jack. gg615 I'm in eastern CT by R.I., just curious, where are you? No need to name a town just a general area if you're comfortable with that.


Formerly nam here since 07/31/03 coastal, CT

I can't keep anyone unless they want to be kept. I am selfish in many ways. We all are. I spent almost 20 years in a marriage, 2 children and outwardly a "perfect" couple. For 20 years we were both seeking different roads, more or less. So, I can do the commitment thing. Not fair and not healthy.

GF knows, cares about, and is meeting my emotional needs that were never part of my marriage. Not blaming, just fact. I seem to be either in the process of getting kicked to the curb or kicking myself to the curb in relationships. The timelines differ on this process.

I do try to have GF's best interests at heart as I trust she does for me as well. But I'm not a very good martyr. I get the bio clock ticking thing. Take this out of the equation and all else is pretty darn good.

GF ranked her ENs as #1 H&O and #8 FS, #9 FC, and #10 DS about a year ago. So understand why I am still here in this relationship. Or was she not really being H&O with me and herself. I don't know but we are taking it one day at a time and enjoying each other where we are right now.

Yes, gg615, the way other side of the state. We have another member from CT, he's in the New Haven area.

I would use condoms then, carefully or get a vasectomy.

The rubber will meet the road when she demands a baby or gets herself inseminated. Then you can leave her after you have gotten your needs met for a while.

She is not going to give up that desire for a baby.
