observations

[ivantheterrible]

to state first, i'm not putting women down. men and women are entirely different creatures.
anyway, around here there are a lot of older back to landers , i.e.- hippies. they came here with a woman, or met someone and all had an agreement to live as simply as possible. renovating old farm houses over time, raising animals, huge gardens, hunting, etc.,etc.,etc.. the agreememnt was to work at life and needs a little over time, no rush.
then, boom!, the women want more and more and more. debt, new car, newer house or go into debt to make it nicer , faster. almost all of the older couples of this genre have divorced (if married) or split up. all because the woman got greedy and paranoid about not having.
what gives?
i recently ran into a young man who is crazy about this one young lady who has spent a year in the woods by herself. i told him, if you can live with her, work together towards a common goal to keep it simple, just hope she stays away from the ones who turned or the yuppies in town. and i wish him all the luck in the world.
i wonder what would happen to a nicarauguan chick if she came to america. ruin her?

I am sure there are women like you describe, but I never married one like that and if it was that common, I should of had at least one.

 

[ivantheterrible]

ps- i gave up looking for another woman. too much hassle when you want to keep your life simple.

 

[Jm J Bullock]

Sounds like a Roger Miller song in the making.

 

[sereneone4u]

That is such a crock of shit. Just as many men ruin relationships for those same reasons.

And one does not have to live like a stereotypically hillbilly to have a good marriage.

 

[ivantheterrible]

i am well aware of that. but this IS my observation of the back to landers around here. and its not a stereotypical "hillbilly" life. pull your horns in, princess.

Yes, I've seen enough of that in a lifetime. But I've also seen men who've enslaved themselves to the accumulation of as many 'toys' as they can beg, borrow, or steal. I don't think it's as gender specific as the picture you've painted. Some folks just seem to be compulsive at 'nest feathering.'

I don't pretend to know or understand all the possible reasons that might drive the compulsion. In my case I was wedded to my work, I really was enjoying what I was doing. Money was a by-product of that drive and the ex found so many new and creative ways of disposing of the income that on many occasions I could only shake my head in astonishment. I eventually came to my senses and disposed of her. But the reality is that I was enabling her by not imposing fiscal restrictions. So in the end I really only have myself to blame.

That is WHY I put stereotypical...and my horns are not out, Ivan.

 

[ivantheterrible]

rose accepted. but stereotypical would be no teeth, the women do all the work, dressed in rags, live in a tumbling down shack, while all the men are drunk on moonshine.

to add, this is also what happened to my marriage. we had everything. and no rent or mortgage, the house was slowly headed towards self reliance only. owed no one anything.
and after she started hanging out with yuppies and wannabe yuppies she began talking about wanting more, and more, and more and wanted it NOW. which meant large amount of debt, and working yourself to death for mere things. i looked at her over time and thought, who the hell is this person? and walked away.

and now i am judged because i don't have a large bank account, drive an older vehicle, don't make a lot of money, but i owe no one. all i can say to them is, i'm happy as is, and i am a not a slave for things. but they can't deal with that.

I'd steer clear of the mail-order brides. The whole reason they want to come to the US is for a chance to accumulate the goods and status that are hard to come by in the third world.

You're better off emigrating. I was hanging out with an old guy who lives in Brazil and he was telling me that any guy, irregardless of age, appearance or charm, could have hot girls a third his age if he had American dollars to spend. They tend to be illiterate, but so what.

 

[ivantheterrible]

nah, no thanx.
a friend of mine goes to a country in central america once a year for that very reason.

 

[rosco rathbone]

I'm not talking abt prostitution. This guy was 60 something, married to a knockout mixed race girl in her early 20s. This was in a mining town. His money provided a land rover, a generator to power the AC, and other nice things to make a home, which every woman wants.

 

[ivantheterrible]

hahahaha.......................

brazil "nice" can be a hell of a lot different than america "nice".

 

[rosco rathbone]

Yeah, but that works to your advantage, dontcha think? Give a chick a 500 dollar wal mart generator and she's a yuppie in Sao Felix do Xingu or wherever. No need for granite countertops, etc.

 

[ivantheterrible]

good point. but the heat of that far south year round doesn't appeal to me no matter how good the pussy is.

 

[Saint Peter]

good point. but the heat of that far south year round doesn't appeal to me no matter how good the pussy is.

Fill you suitcase with corn in May and head to Siberia!

 

[rosco rathbone]

South America is a big ass place. If you don't like heat, there's always the mountain countries. The racial mix of the females is best in the Brazil-Venezuela area though, and that's hot like a bastard.

 

[ivantheterrible]

yeah, a little ndn, a little black, a little white, and BAM, instant hottie.

 

[rosco rathbone]

yeah, a little ndn, a little black, a little white, and BAM, instant hottie.

Hell yeah. Especially when the "white" is Portuguese or Spanish, which means part white, part Jewish and part Moorish. Get near the former British colonies like Guyana and you throw East Indian in the mix. Hottest women in the world are in that north-eastern corner of SA.

 

[redheadedtxn]

ew.
I wouldn't be happy living in an old farm house raising animals and gardening out in the sticks.

I like shopping.
