That is great. I had a similar thing happen to me when I first was having issues with my wife. We were going through a seperation, etc and I went out with this women that really had her clock ticking. She wanted to get pregnant in the worst way. Well when I told her it won't be with me and why I never heard from her again . . . :D
 
While I find that story very sad -- another born to a broken family with idiot parents -- I understand the sentiment. I am in my 30's, never marrier, no kids, and do fairly well for myself. But women at this age who haven't been married / had kids are often so over the top in their desire to have kids that it is scary. I don't know if I want kids. Quite frankly, I more concerned with finding the right girl first.



A while back I had a blind date with a girl -- we were set up, had spoken on the phone, but never met. During dinner -- so I had known her all of an hour or so -- she basically said that if my goal in dating her was not to get married and have kids right away that we might as well not go out again. :eek:



I immediately ordered another drink and asked for the bill.



Rocks
 
Great story.

I had a vasectomy during my first marriage. That cost me a perfectly good girlfriend later, great-looking, good job, bedroom athlete, but at that point I was about 40 and wasn't interested in having any more kids. She was a little bit nutty anyhow, but in a nice way.

The whole time I was single I was sort of waiting for a call like that from someone, thinking I'd have similar fun as the guy in the story, but it never happened.
 
What a classic. A similar thing occured with a friend of mine. He was in his mid-life crisis, post-divorce, early 40s dating and dating a girl in her early 20s. He had done the marriage vascetomy and let this girl know so the first date when they went at it. A few months down the road, the goes nutty and he leaves her. She does the crying and begging and I'm sorry game for a month. Then she comes up with the I'm pregnant story to lasso him back. He reminds her of his procedure and she says "oh yeah...sorry." She stopped calling. We still see her out every once in a while and the easy joke we all ask is "when are you due?" or "how is the baby?"



Of course, the best come back/I need you plea was when another nutty one told a friend of mine her daughter had been missing/kidnapped for a couple of days and that she needed him to come back to help/support her. Of course it was lost on her that he was the coach of her daughter's softball team and he had just seen the daughter an hour before...with the nutty mother.
 
After further thought, good thing the dude busted her when he did. Assuming the story is true, I have my doubts. In a lot of states including here in PA if you are a "father" for a while, even if it is later proven that you are NOT, you still have to pay child support. Sometimes there is a time lag before the law catches up with technology. So sign up for the Maury Show quick.
 
I think there was plenty of deception on both sides, his was less overt. Going to such lengths to embarass and hurt a woman reveals a serious misogynistic streak. Lucky he didn't get stabbed or shot...
 
I agree lasik--No where in the story is there any indication that she was actually trying to deceive him. For all we know, she honestly thought that it was his kid. Based on this, the way he handled it, stringing her along, even sleeping with her again, was completely uncalled for and classless. What an ass.
 
Lasik1 and BillV, glad you guys said that.



I thought the same thing. What a jerk!



And it is sad that people root for and get entertainment from his misguided actions (though I suspect the whole story is fabricated).

I got with this babe one night at the bar, we grab a motel room and it was going good but pretty soon I felt woozy. Next thing I know, I wake up in a bathtub full of ice and one of my kidneys is gone. Now how am I going to explain that to the wife? Coming home with a hole where my kidney was. Damn.....I'm already in trouble for sending $25,000 to help that prince in Cameroon get his rightful inheiritance. He said the check's in the mail so I guess that'll be okay.



Yes, it's been a slow day at work.
 
JohnnyO...I have been dealing with his brother in Nigeria. Their family sure has had a rough time in the last few years with all of their money being tied up.
 
JohnnyO,



Bwahahaha....I get more entertainment from watching people get entertained on this site than anything else, lately...



...except when I watched "The Departed" the other night. Damn fine movie.

In my case, good guy that I am, I was up front that I'd had a vasectomy. Wasn't an issue until she decided that I'd be perfect husband material.:wub: Well I AM, but I couldn't be talked into getting the baby faucet turned back on either. Also I reasoned that with the failure rate of first marriages at 50% and second marriages at 70%, I'm not paying child support any longer than I already have to. Could buy a lot of Sport Trac parts with that $941.29 a month I pay. Two months, that's my Superlift right there.
 
JohnnyO, I am convinced that most marriages that fail in divorce, especially those that end in divorce within the first 5 years, are between two people that never really should have gotten married, and were probably married for all the wrong reasons (lust, infatuation, etc).



Many people think that marriage will be fun. The think that when you find the right person, that marriage is easy. Many people think that getting married will help them to find and get the things that they want out of life and it will help cater to their needs.



The truth is far less appealing. Marriage is hard. It requires a dedication and should be entered into with an assumption that it will be difficult, and that each person will have to "give" more to the relationship than they receive. Furthermore, it should be entered into knowing full well, that no matter what, there is no "reset", or "undo" button...and that no matter what, it is forever.



Few people these days look at marriage and enter into marriage thinking these things.



I know that given all of that many would say: "Well if that is marriage, why would ANYONE want to get married?"....and that's a good question.



The answer I can give is this: "No matter how difficult marriage is, on average, it's a better way of life for most people than 'going it alone', and it's the best possible arrangement for raising healthy children!"

I saved this article in case I ever think of getting married again.

Questions Couples Should Ask (Or Wish They Had) Before Marrying

Relationship experts report that too many couples fail to ask each other critical questions before marrying. Here are a few key ones that couples should consider asking:

1) Have we discussed whether or not to have children, and if the answer is yes, who is going to be the primary care giver?

2) Do we have a clear idea of each other’s financial obligations and goals, and do our ideas about spending and saving mesh?

3) Have we discussed our expectations for how the household will be maintained, and are we in agreement on who will manage the chores?

4) Have we fully disclosed our health histories, both physical and mental?

5) Is my partner affectionate to the degree that I expect?

6) Can we comfortably and openly discuss our sexual needs, preferences and fears?

7) Will there be a television in the bedroom?

8) Do we truly listen to each other and fairly consider one another’s ideas and complaints?

9) Have we reached a clear understanding of each other’s spiritual beliefs and needs, and have we discussed when and how our children will be exposed to religious/moral education?

10) Do we like and respect each other’s friends?

11) Do we value and respect each other’s parents, and is either of us concerned about whether the parents will interfere with the relationship?

12) What does my family do that annoys you?

13) Are there some things that you and I are NOT prepared to give up in the marriage?

14) If one of us were to be offered a career opportunity in a location far from the other’s family, are we prepared to move?

15) Does each of us feel fully confident in the other’s commitment to the marriage and believe that the bond can survive whatever challenges we may face?
