It’'s been 40 years. She’s familiar with what a hopeless Romeo I am, and laughs at me. I go along with her claims of disorderly orderlies, and pretend I won’t mention them online.

Dude, it’s three months. Give a brother some sort of allowance.

Wow, thank you. I’ve always thought of myself as an innocuous, generic poster, mostly posting about cats and postcards, but occasionally something sets me off :smack:. I’m glad my posts are somewhat interesting and/or entertaining.

**dropzone and Gatopescado** now have pieces of my heart.

This thread is the best thing that’s ever happened to me here.

The OP’s advice was too harsh, used the ‘b’ words too often, and ignored whatever the man felt for the woman. Correction should be in that direction, not some accusation from someone with little improvement in choice of words.

I’m assuming he defines anybody who uses the expression “thinking with his dick” as a “radical feminist”. I would love to see Father Koldo’s reaction to that label (he’s been known to use such an expression during sermons; he’s also on record as being againt the ordaining of deaconesses and known to prefer men for “Mass assistance” duties such as reading or handing out Communion), the spit-take could be dangerous to walls.

Because you’re channeling Rush Limbaugh with the feminazi thing, which is cliche and tiresome, and you made a story about a realtor sleeping with her client into a political issue. Just because you _can_ get on the soapbox doesn’t mean you _should_.

You were criticising the dude for thinking with his dick, even if you didn’t know that was the correct term. The arguments you presented were of a nature that, combined with your posting history, indicated you were posting from a position of utter ignorance, which would have been no big deal. High frequency even on SDMB of people who just have to share their two cents even when a better reply is already in. But they were presented in a sauce of ugly misogyny, which Helena330 was correct in calling you on.

**CosmicManiac** , how do you know that the woman in that thread isn’t honest and hardworking, and how do you know that she is conniving and deceptive?

I’ll note that the OP in that thread specifically described her as hardworking in his first post, and she certainly was honest and upfront about her cocaine use.
