OT: A question for the men

SBR Lou · 03-31-08, 03:53 PM

I wouldn't read too much into it, you're a chick. Let him make the play. I don't think you should have to force the issue about moving there, if he wants your company there, he'll sack up and ask you about it. Then, presumably, you'd know how to respond from there.

Nina I am available, look me up if your in NJ

Thanks

Take it from someone who has been through a similar situation. If you don't give it a try, you will always wonder "what if?"

Granted China is much further than Florida.

Which is why I was asking cause I know that men and women don't think anything alike.

And I never said I would move there. I have issues being in countries that like to kidnap Americans.

I don't appreciate you flirting with other women in my presence.

I agree! Whoever if he doesn't ask sounds like he is married to me

hmmm ...wasn't I just saying a few weeks ago about how people move for their ....ahhhhh.. "career" ..putting it above their REAL future...

He didn't "ASK" you to move there... He didn't say "how do you feel about moving to China.?" This sounds like he is doing what most people do and that is put their job ahead of their real future... His job means more to him then you do...

There is that slight possibility that he is waiting for you to ask him to go but I don't think so... I think he is preparing you for the fact that he might not be back.... at least for a long time..

My perspective is differant then most... I believe my future wouldn't be hearding around people or spending hours designing something... You don't make kids with that... The REAL future is the girl you end up with that has and raises your children... If he cared to that degree about you he should either ask/want you to go or throw boxes around for $10 an hour and sacrafice (in reality NOTHIHG) to be with you...

Get me one!! I'm not getting a puppy any time soon, but a Panda Bear cub is a different story! I'm going to name it Spot.

I like Mr. Nina. I liked him yesterday. And I will like him even more tomorrow.

Shark79 · 03-31-08, 04:13 PM

Does he not take vacations for 18 months? If he does, he should spend them with you, if he is really interested, he would make it work.

Thats my thought.

Yes, I saw where you were spouting off all of that. But that argument seems to more geared for (dare I say) younger peoples? And I'm also sure you took into account that you got the Reader's Digest version. But I do appreciate the insight.

To be honest you shouldn't be asking us you need to ask him.
do you guys talk or keep your feelings inside.

Already sounds like some secret relationship by both of you. Honesy communication is key. If you don't have it you don't have a relationship.

Goodluck

swede96 · 03-31-08, 04:16 PM

Nina, I think the fact that he asked you how what you would say rather than just telling you he was going (and the fact that he's willing to look at other jobs) says that he does care about you and doesn't want to lose you again.

I'm with Robyn. You'll never know if you don't try. Tell him that upsets you. You should also let him know that you're not sure you can wait 18 months for him to come back (even though I know how much you care for him). Considering the past you two have, he seems to think you'll always be waiting for him...even though you and I both know it was just sheer luck that you were single when he contacted you again. At this point, you should be a more important fixture in his life.

I knew what he meant. But I am a mere woman with a vagina, therefore unqualified to speak of such things.

Don't you go bringing logic into a conversation with a woman.

So...Thursday night, out of nowhere, he asks me what would I say if he had to stay in China until the whole project was complete which is about 18 months.

It sounds like you see him a few hours a year... JJ see's hookers for longer then that... geez...

Anyway you asked A FEW times "what am I suppose to say?" How about telling him WHAT YOU FEEL..? If you don't know how you feel how the hell are we supposed to...

Tell him what you feel and let the chips fail where they may... One is likely to land on BONES shoulder...

BONES you're stalkin' me and it's really starting to get "creepy"...
