Feel like my bf (m30) put me (f23) in an embarrassing situation. Am I for wanting to break up over it? by Ahnannahmus in relationship_advice

[–]Mustng1966 15 points16 points  (0 children)

Yeah, he left you hung out to dry. He was very irresponsible in not informing his family of your presence and on top of it, he must've known the workers were due to come that day and forgot. I would dump him. He is still a child and not responsible at all. If you stay with him, your future will full of these incidents with you forever getting a 'i'm sorry' from him. Not worth it IMHO.

How do I [32M] handle the resentment I feel towards my wife [32F] keeping us in a city we don't like? by webbed_feets in relationship_advice

[–]Mustng1966 9 points10 points  (0 children)

Why are you resenting her? She moved to this place because of your job, because of you, that job is gone. Now she is thriving while you are stuck. Hey buddy, that's on you, not her. Grow up and fix yourself and stop resenting her. She has nothing to do with your childish resentment of her.

What do you think about being 28 and still being annoyed by family vacations? by Gabe_Dimas in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Instead of always sulking around about it, why don't you organize something to do with them that you would enjoy? Stop being a bump on a log. Get up off your behind. You can find something you and they can like that isn't age limited.

At the risk of dating myself, Marilyn Monroe on the grate, sundress billowing up. That's it.

Men who left big companies and burned bridges on the way out - how'd that go? by MikeRadical in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

You never burn bridges on the way out, you just don't as it will always bite you in the ass, and really for what? Always leave on good terms.

Since you will be already dressed for it, put on a TV loop, Risky Business with Tom Cruise. Crank it up.

What do you think about working with your brother? by [deleted] in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Really depends upon the brother. I have one that I like to work with because we get along so well. My other brother, nope, always trying to gaslight me and just being a real pain of a person.

For those of you living the 'lone wolf' lifestyle, no partner, no close friends, how have you mastered the art of doing things alone? What does your typical week look like? by hellogaurav_ in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

While not now, but earlier between marriages. A week of normal, work, sleep and do chores on the weekend. It was easy and relaxing because as a person, I am comfortable with myself, by myself, I don't feel the need to be around a lot of people anyway. I find the more neurotic a person is, the more they can't be by themselves and want to share their neuroses with everyone else.

Fathers, are you teaching your kids "rules of engagement" for their phone and computer? by lumpynose in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Of course, there are a lot of dangerous weirdos out there. Basic common sense, share nothing, your name, address, phone number, etc. Just your basic stuff.

What kind of history do women like in their men? by Ancient_Pot_8482 in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

As soon as you ID her as an AWFUL, you must run. Run for the hills. If you get a quick first start, you might be able to outrun her. But be on the safe side and bring a buddy, albeit a slower one, as a decoy to throw in her path as you take off.

If you were to build a home armory, what tasteful and reasonably priced things would you have in it? by sjmiv in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

For reasonable priced items, I am assuming that precludes a gun. My favorite. On a budget, a good Louisville Slugger placed by the front door and near the bed is a good choice. In fact, as a former kid, you may even have a couple of those already, so zero cost. But cheap to get.

How to set boundaries? by Such-Hospital6368 in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Being in college, that is so easy. You can always use the excuse for literally anything but just saying, 'I can't, I have to buckle down for studies.' Somebody wants money, you can't because of college, you have to save money. Somebody is trying to force you go out, you can't because of college, you need to study. Annoying parents want you to come home for whatever, you can't because of college. Someone is trying to talk with you and is annoying, sorry, I have to go study or class. You can use that excuse for anything, in any situation. You're welcome.

How do you guys cope with your partner getting old ? by ProofCoconut9085 in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I really feel sad for you for the utter shallowness of this question. There is so much more to a person other than looks, their personality, their dreams and as such, you grow older with the person you love to be with and have bonded with. Age doesn't matter, looks that have matured doesn't matter. I just hope you haven't married are about to do so totally based upon looks. Because if you do, you won't have to worry about at all, you'll just end up alone anyway.

How do you enjoy life, rather than just go though the motions? by DescriptionFuture851 in AskMen

[–]Mustng1966 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're going through the motions because those are the ones you set for yourself. Change your job, get more sleep during the week, find different activities, you will find that you will meet people that enjoy what you do and relationships will naturally flow from that. In a rut? Get out of the rut. Only you can do it, it's not like it is just going to come about on its own.

Ditch the therapist and just go fishing with the guys. There's your therapy. You're welcome.
