    Lotta people were only looking for a place to hang their hat for 2 years. Now they"re underwater in a place they can"t sell. Proceed with caution.

    Ho boy. Dude, I"m gonna say this as nicely as possible -- slow down. It ain"t a race. You"ll find a nice place to live in. You"ll get a good deal on it. Don"t think you gotta do this shit on the first pass though. Take some time and REALLY look at it, because all those things you didn"t...

    Probably be pretty hard to garner sympathy when houses have already lost so much value. You"d do the same if you were selling.

    We found the house that we knew we were going to spend the rest of our lives in. My wife was in love with it, and it had everything I wanted too (and a few things I didn"t know I did, but like anyway). There"s no way in hell I wouldda bartered down the last 5k on the risk of losing it after we...

    Could you live with yourself losing the house over 6,000? If the answer is yes, then go ahead. If not, take their 152.

    All of this advice is bad. I mean, it"s fine if you don"t give a shit about the relationship, but you clearly do, so uhh, yeah, it"s not much help. This is an impossible situation to diagnose in a 40 word post. You"re gonna have to talk to her more and talk to us more if you want any kind of...

    Is there really a difference in this day and age? It"s not like there"s a whole shitload of wild humans out there that we can assess for their traits. Being a man in society involves a lot more than having a fucking ball sack.

    So your perfect fit is a woman of questionable character with a penchant for manipulation. Great, we can skip a shitload of posts now and just work on that instead.

    You"re so fucking right dude. How fucking horrible it is to have to wake up and deal with your awesome kids every morning. It"s completely unbearable to watch them grow up into their own little people, I only wish I could find the words to explain how thoroughly unsatisfying it is. You just...

    I tried to explain this many months ago, and no one understood what I was saying then, but uhh, yeah, your priorities definitely do change when you"re married with kids. You think you"re pretty happy living the single life, going out with your buddies, whatever, and then your soulmate comes...

    She"s either got you friend zoned, or the dude she"s with ain"t turning her crank and wants something new before she dumps him. Either way, we went over this a few pages ago. Try to keep up.

    Not necessarily. I may have told this story before, but my best friend from childhood lived down the block from me. We went through all 13 years of school together, had a pretty good bond. Shortly after my wife and I started dating he made a move on her and said she should be with him instead...

    Ah crap, Erronius fucked up my edit train. But he nailed the point I wanted to expand on that you getting pissed off at her giving you hints that she "Knows you"d never do on your own" isn"t good for you, and makes you the bitch here. How would you feel if you told her "Hey, no teeth on the...

    Like, all of them. Seriously, if the wife and I have a fight before I leave for work or something over something retarded and trivial, by the end of the day, she"s seriously got it worked out in her head that we"re getting divorced and she should pack her shit and leave. All it takes is 12...

    Also take into consideration that shit breaks/needs improvements in a house. You"ve gotta come up with some plan for that, or you"ll be arguing about whether you really NEED a new dishwasher or not too. I mean, it"s pretty possible that like the deck falls off the house and one of you is like...

    There are a few guys I think I could make that work with -- the number is very small though. I"ll tell you what though, that whole thing goes to shit the minute one of you wants to get a family going...which may or may not be convenient for the other.

    That"s also called dating, FYI. /brofist Edit : to expand briefly on this -- I met my wife online in on an AOL messageboard way the fuck back in the day, she was dating one of the guys on there casually. When they broke it off, I asked her if she wanted to meet up because my roomie and...

    Jesus christ you"re a retard. Here, lemme try to explain this to you again. Here"s your original quote. And here"s why you"re wrong. She thinks he"s attractive. She still shot him down. Why? BECAUSE HE"S ON THE FRIEND LADDER. She has zero interest in fucking him. She likes to hang out with him...

    We are absolutely in the minority. After reading the shit a few pages ago about the dude"s gf wanting to go over to a male"s house and watch movies and shit I thought "So? Big fucking deal." Sadly, jealousy is what ends up ruining most relationships. "You"re spending too much time with X, not...

    Ah, but see, you"re missing the wisdom of the thread. The friend zone automatically means that the dude is never even going to get a whiff. It"s not his choice. If a chick wants to fuck a guy, she"ll fuck em. If she wants a friend, that"s all he"ll ever be. There"s zero reason at all to be...

    I"d just like to say that as a married guy, the friend zone guys are awesome. My wife has one, he used to live a floor below us when we were doing the apartment thing, known him for probably 13 years now. He does shit with my wife that I have no interest in doing (shopping, ren festival, etc)...

    Relationship over, basically. The only logical course of action for you is to back off completely since she"s already rejected you, and the odds of her actually pursuing something, even if she desires it, is negligible at best. Most women aren"t going to make the first move, and since she"s...

    Wait, is this a truism too? I"m just wondering how to take this. The only real answer is that you"ll inevitably end up waiting about 5 minutes longer than whatever other asshole she wants to be with.

    It"s gotta be a sometimes thing, because I can literally stop mid-fucking (which happens a lot when you have a kid and you thought stupidly thought you had 5 minutes with the wife), put it away, and be fine the rest of the day. I dunno what to tell you, but it doesn"t happen to me, and the...
