Popular Post Mike S Posted January 21, 2016 Popular Post Posted January 21, 2016 We had this topic just a little while back but thought I would add another post for those that may be or thinking of being in a relationship ..... The other day J went out to take care of some bills (I can't stand to wait in line) and while she was there an ol' fart (like me) came in with a sweet young thing on his arm ... they sat down and shortly the girl got up and left .... living her bag with the guy .... J said no sooner had she got out of sight then he opened her bag ..... took out her cell phone and started going through it all the while keeping a sharp look out for her return .... she returned with a bottle of water for him .... J couldn't wait to get home to tell me as she couldn't believe that he didn't trust her enough that he had to check her cell phone .... Now I do realize that some guys maybe insecure and afraid that their partner maybe cheating on them and I can help but feel sorry for them as that has to be a miserable way to live ..... being afraid every minute that someone is cheat on you .... My own personal view is if I can't trust her or are willing to over look her indiscretion then I am going to move on .... life is way to short to go around eating yourself alive with jealously or suspicion .... JMHO .... :thumbsup: :cheersty: 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Popular Post Dave Hounddriver Posted January 21, 2016 Popular Post Posted January 21, 2016 "Trust but verify." That is my motto too :hystery: In my life I have not always been 100% trustworthy. I have made mistakes. In fact every single one of my friends have made mistakes at some point in their life. Mistakes that go uncorrected tend to lead to huge misunderstadings and often worse. So to those people who trust 100% and "know' their partner is never going to make a mistake, my hat is off to you, my heart goes out to you, and my brain has another word that is not so flattering. But I love you all for your trust and commitment. I have caught Yvonne making 'mistakes' and that has prompted some great dialogue and closer ties. Lets take lying for example. Everybody lies! If your wife says "does this dress make my ass look fat" and you do not lie you are not too bright. The dialogue comes with knowing what level of lying is acceptable to each person in the relationship. Example: I know of some expat/filipina couples where the husband actively encourages his partner to go online and lie to guys who are dumb enough to believe and send money. Seriously! And I know other couples who have discussed such a thing and came to the conclusion that it breaks personal boundaries that are more important than the money. But there is a third group of ladies who just do it and do not say anything to their trusting partners because they do not even see it as wrong. As we can see, this is a much deeper subject than just saying Yes, I trust her. Let me say I trust Yvonne 100% in the areas I know I can trust her with. 7 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
