> [@Spice\_Weasel](#): > > I should clarify. I am beginning to think you are some kind of masochist for continuing to post your thoughts about women in this thread. I am more honest than most and I have no issues with with women in general. I love my daughters, my mother my cousins and everyone else. I like you too. If you and your husband ever need a place to stay in the Boston area, you have one with me. I would move heaven and earth to make things happen for people I care about. What we are talking about here is different though. It is a competitive game and you can’t tell who is going to screw you over until you get blindsided. I was supposed to have a date with someone in Newport, Rhode Island today. She just dropped communication for no reason and never called me back. I don’t do that to anyone because I think it is disrespectful. Like I said, that isn’t just women. Male friends have done it to me as well. What they don’t realize is that I consider anything like that a blatant lie and I will hurt you for it. It may take months or even years but I will strike when the opportunity arises. I have done it to bunch of people with no regrets and I will happily do it again. I can’t understand why adults cannot be more straightforward. Things shouldn’t be this complicated. All we are trying to is hang out at a specific time and place. It if you can’t navigate space-time successfully, I don’t want anything to do with you. --- _[View the full topic](https://boards.straightdope.com/t/men-in-their-40s-or-above-how-do-you-stay-attracted-to-women-your-own-age/791623)._
