| | Why do men have to be so selfish and such dicks? Posted: Aug 29, 2007, 11:40 PM CST | I got a call from my son tonight, he is staying with his dad tonight and won't see him again til later this weekend. Well he called because he was upset that he was home alone and has been most of the night.
You see his dad and I have filed for divorce and no longer live together. Ok, this hard enough in itself. Well, my soon to be ex decided he would first take my son to this woman's house for dinner, Then he took him to church. While my son and her kids were at church they decided to start a movie (but they didn't finish it). After church they picked up the kids and went to their seperate homes. Well this was only temporary. She wanted him to come back over after she got her kids into bed so they could finish the movie. He discussed this with my son and my son said sure. (ok, a 12 old going through enough already being told his dad wants to "finish" a movie. of course he thought his dad wouldn't be gone long) Well he has been and my son called all upset, but didn't want me to come get him ( i know why).
This man...i have been married to for almost 20 years has turned into some kind of uncaring selfish monster. Is this inbred into men or what? He can't control me anymore, this makes him mad. He gets mad at me, he gets mad at our kids, and pulls crap like this.
Why are men such pricks and dicks?

| | Why do men have to be so selfish and such dicks? Posted: Aug 31, 2007, 11:11 PM CST | Not all men are pricks or dicks! Women, like men, see things in different perspectives. A guy on one hand has to jump through thousands of hoops to try to keep the average woman content. It's not bad enough he has to cough up money for entertainment, trips across town, abscences from work in order to justify attending to the whims of ms "lady-fair" but he has to juggle his previous life as well, whether it is repairing roof, mending his heart or worrying about paying bills and satisfying or meeting the needs of his prior family, relatives or current boss who frowns at him for asking for time off.
A man, like a woman...needs some mental time off and to himself and away from pressure of responsibility without being considered a prick or an absentee father.
I've never been one...lost my chance when twins died before birth but I know today how difficult it is to make ends meet let alone trying to satisfy the curiousity, insatiable needs of a woman whether it is fine dining or paying for drinks at $5/pop and to not even get a thank-you out of her as if a courtesy is too much to ask for yet I would be considered demanding, too agressive or hung up on myself if I asked the gal to "think" about reciprocating a bit.
You need to lighten up and yes, although a 12 year old doesn't need to be alone and should be, I'm sure there is more to the story than what you are revealing to the readers.

But when it comes to their children they should always be put first, especially if you haven't been with them much and know that by your own choice and plans you will not be with them again for several days, is one night to much to ask?
And no I didn't state everything to the readers, but for this one instance this one night I stated the information as I received it. I was not there to witness how long my son was alone. But, I do know how his father has been acting for the last 6 months and now it has increased since I moved out.
I guess my issues is more with his parental instincts, it is like they have turned off. This behavior is not typical of this man, well not until lately. There is so much more to the story and WE are both to blame for our divorcing. I know that when we point our finger at someone, then there are three more pointing back at us. I have made some mistakes, but when it comes to my time with my kids, they are FIRST. This whole speration adn divorce thing is just as hard on them as it is on us. In my opinion, more so on them.
I am not sure if this helps extend or explain my words, but my words are what they. They were and are spoken from my heart.

| | Why do men have to be so selfish and such dicks? Posted: Nov 27, 2007, 5:37 PM CST | You are right to a certain extent....Most men are thinking with their second head and when the object of their attention beckons, that 2nd head takes over no matter what. This woman's soon to be ex, is selfish. His child should be taken care of before his needs are. If he wants to go tip toeing through the bushes with this other woman, he should have taken his 12 year old child back to his soon to be ex. There have been far too many freak accidents involving young children left alone at night. Men and women both have responsibilities and stress that needs to be relieved, but when there are young children involved, the children should come first.

He should have stayed home with his son and waited until his son was back at home if he wanted time alone with the new girlfriend. Some guys seem to think when they divorce the wife, they divorce the kids too. Maybe a talk with your ex about what not to do when he has your son with him..but I am sure that would probably just piss him off even more and make things worse? Maybe talk to your lawyer about it.
I left my daughter with my ex for the weekend once when she was only 4. This was only his second visitation with her (not court ordered, I just wanted her to not forget her dad) I went back to pick her up at the agreed time, and nobody was home, and we happened to spot her under a streelight (at 9pm) in the rain about three streets away from his house. She had been following my ex's GFs kids somewhere, and they took off and left her. If we had not come along when we did, God only knows what would have happened.
Apparently the ex and his gf had been gone all day and evening on his new harley to a party. They came home shortly after I found my daughter lost on the street. Of course I had some choice words for them and expressed my deep concern and anger at his total irresponsibility, but they were *high* and it was all *no big deal*.and his GF even had the nerver to ask if she could come back the following weekend
