Depends on the man, but most seem really good at giving bullshit lines and then breaking your heart.
((((Moonie))))) ~ you okay? 😢




I have decided that men are good for me socially, domestically as in fixing things and having a laugh with, but not romantically

Yep, just giving my jaded view based on observations/experience. Humanity is a huge disappointment, though.

I too am not impressed at what I see relationship wise....

The happily ever after is a myth we are brainwashed into....having said that, we have our precious sons, so it ain't all bad


It's not a myth, per se, but lets face it, most are players, and the rest.....well, you can't just grab anyone and make it work, there has to be compatibility, respect, chemistry, etc.

I'm not looking, per se, but I can't get myself to stop believing it exists. Yes, it's almost a myth lol.......but I'm a dreamer, a manifestor, a moon child.

It's gonna be hard for you to find find men (our) age that are not in play mode. Most of them have kids that are just getting out of high school and they most likely freshly divorced. So, settling down is far from their mind.

Just something I've noticed. For a woman in her early 40' it's rough being single and looking for a man that can give her real love

"For a woman in her early 40' it's rough being single and looking for a man that can give her real love"

is real love equal to settle-down?

If any problem it comes from setting them equal to each other. Even a woman in the middle of her life needs to check what she really needs. Most of the caring comes from women anyway. Actually they are looking for someone to serve but think they look someone who has their back. Men make the same mistake.

BTW women without job find still a partner. The nearer you are to the hardware layer the simpler you make compromises.

Why I normally like your comments this one is degrading to not only women, but men as well. Men are capable of caring just as much as a woman. Women without jobs still find partners? Don't really understand this comment.

It is not a mistake to look for that quality of having ones back in your partner. In fact, I think it's #2 on my list (loyalty).

"BTW I was really disgrading both sides."

Fact is: When life gets crazy both men and women can do/live all alone. Well, with additional help from the society of course.

Now while dating their focus is on "carrying the burden together with someone else".

How do they come together and then go appart?
They serve each other for a short time. Which is the good, positive and constructive part. They go apart cause they detect shortage for the purpose of carrying the luggage. Maybe the man detects imperfection in himself. The woman in him. The woman in herself. The man in her.

We leave each other cause we feel weak. How good that we sometimes serve each other at least. I don't think that feeling of being deficient will ever vanish.

I know.....and I'd rather be single than deal with some liar, or to settle for less. Been there, done that, and won't do it again. The bar is set high.

And it should be. A woman after 40 is a treasure. The ones that have not been damaged buy some 2 bit schmuck anyways. They have their shit together and are ready for life. Its a beautiful thing to find a good one you're compatible with. Keep your heart open MoonArtist. Some dude is gonna find you and love you.

There are LOTS of secure woman in the world Ram..........maybe you need to get out more or look in different places

Your point is? I was paying someone a compliment.

I know you Scorpio's can't pay a compliment to save your fucking life but I thought you could at least recognize one.

Now, let her enjoy it if she can. Scorpio's always fucking up a good thing.

You made out that secure women are a rarity....when they are not. I found that odd and rather a sweeping statement? That is like saying most women are insecure...which isn't true

Lol to compliment comment....my middle name is *Praise*.....my friends call me the lovewoman because i am so into praising people and trying to love and support them as much as i can. Maybe that statement applies to the other 99% of Scorpios, hey Ram? 😛 . You must have had very bad experiences with *us*....that is a shame

Do you have a SOH, btw, you come across as quite intensely serious....a lot


🙂

I have never had a *bad* experience with a Scorpio woman.

I am intensely serious about 50% of the time. There is hidden humor in my words if you look. You will only see it if you are not afraid to see the truth

Yep, Cancer. Don't believe all the hype about how Cancers are crybabies that boohoo at the drop of a hat. It's a very rare thing for anyone to see me cry.
I know how strong cancers are. No secret there

I've seen other signs cry much more publicly. Mutable a seems to be the biggest of the groups most likely to cry visibly.

Oh I don't know..........

Building civilizations, protecting your borders, enforcing the laws, inventing every modern convenience that you enjoy ...........

I could go on, but the list is too long.

Don't let me disrupt the man bashing thread, however.


Carry on, ladies.
I think the question is....what are their special powers now.....in this day and age, when we know that women can do all the above as good, or even better?

So men, please stop bringing up the past.
