There are many things that drive women nuts in relationships. Staring at a hot waitress? - no issues here. If it were a hot guy I would do the same. Drooling over Angelina Jolie why watching a DVD – no problem. Like seeing your red blooded maleness intact. Forgetting my birthday – not a chance. You’d be reminded everyday for a month. Watching porn with your buddies - nada. But tell me you are going to call me and don’t, and I get highly pissed off. I don’t know why. I just do. Why is that so hard for men to comprehend?

sorry girl, this one sounds like he should be told politely to fuck off...
It IS disrespectful to not pitch and forget to call (when you've said you will) etc. And if he treats you like this now, trust me it can only get worse.
It really sounds to me as though he has huge power & control freak issues that aren't going to go away, I promise you...
You're right Marijayn
They never change. Never been in this situation before. It's difficult eventhough I know what I have to do.
Ja Flutts...
it's always hard. but it's much easier than being in a relationship where you're expected to be someone you're not...
Marijayn
I agree. Why would one want to be in any relationship where you cannot be yourself?
eeeeuw
watching porn with your buddies? Since when is that a team sport? ;)
Ag Fluts. You know. I'll call you and explain it from a man's point of view.
Ok not a great example
Why do men do it Dex?
And when is enough enough?
I about to throw in the towel over this issue.
Well, Fluts
In my opinion, a phone call is nothing to freak out about. But if you're talking about missed appointments - that's clearly a lack of respect.
Dex
One phone call? How are a dozen? Yes there are missed appointments too. No call or sms. Complete disrespect.
Ja Fluts
doesn't bode well for the future at all. Sorry girl.
I know Dex
I know.
Just so hard to walk away.
Fluts...what's up with your typing woman?
'I about to throw in the towel'
'....and I get highly pissed off. I don’t know why. IT just does.'
Nothing worse that mucking up your words in the heat of an arguement hey...hehehe
Fluts
It's a man thing. Dont get upset about it. Or maybe when he said 'I'll call you' he meant he will call you in a month or when the moon was blue again. You can't fight that one unless he was specific as to date and time. I think we are too emotional and sometimes get all uptight and upset for no reason at all. I am also guilty of that... but then that is a woman thing :)
This is the dude who won't put out or summin...right?
Sheesh. Ditch his sorry butt then!
Then again - you said that the sex was good....so maybe initiate a big ass fight and then enjoy the make up session? And then, ditch his sorry butt!
Not withholding Arbie
He just likes to think he does. It's a power trip. Ja well, will take that under advisement re make up session. Its always fun but the emotional rollercoaster wears me out.
Don't get upset about it?!
Flip Semi, I wish I could. For me it's a basic sign of disrespect - a definite deal breaker. It's also like "see you later" and he just doesn't pitch. I've had enough.
sems
hey sems, hate to disabuse you of your stereotypes, and let the side down, but I think women are just as capable of getting caught up in work or whatever, and forgetting to do something related to home life.
I offer as an example my own forgetting to pick up my child from daycare. The first time I was very distressed, and asked if I was the first mother to do this. "Yes", was the reply, but when she saw my face, she added "this year". I think she was just being kind.
And now that it happens regularly, it's not such a big deal. I try to put a reminder on my phone for 12.30, but sometmes I forget to do that ...
*GASP* No Mother Of The Year Award for You MJ!
Tsk tsk........what a shocker!
;)
sadly arbie, ...
if this was the worst I did to my kids, I'd be happy.
They seem to be hanging in there!
(There'll be no mollycoddling in this house, young lady!")
hell...you're only human chicka
remember that.
MJ
Do you forget for the entire day? Does someone call you to remind you?
*Hangs head in shame*
They do call.
Except last week, where she played happily for 45 mins on her own, until I arrived - it was EARLY CLOSING time and perfectly understandable, okay!
MJ
Woman that woke and raise kids not to mention sustain as reasonably good relationship are 'superheros' in my book. I just don't know how you guys do it. Kudos!
And like Arbie says, we are all human.
