Again, meh. I am at peace. You're taking any disagreement with your beliefs and reading into it a whole lot of emotional baggage that just ain't there -- at least not from my end, although apparently from yours. Don't take things so personally -- it's not about you.
I have no idea what you're talking about. Read your posts, your tone has nothing to do with me.

I do like my wife, I care about her very much. She is educated, she has hot friends, she gets my weird sense of humor most of the time, she enjoys obscure movies, she is very tender when she lets herself be. That being said, we also have issues, and I think I have seen just in this thread the folly of some of the ways I have been handling things, and I will update this thread with my feelings as I go about making some changes. This should be interesting. I will give you two examples right now: Last night we had a nice dinner at Mortons, went and bought some new CD's, etc., and she looked hot as usual. We get home, a little tired but nothing major, and we all know what's expected. Well, the first thing she does is whip off her clothes, jump out of the hot bra and panty combo she had going on and throw on some ratty Pj's. Let me clue you in on something. I like her to dress up a bit, I don't mean the Hamburglar I mean a little Victorias Secret something or other. How often does she wear stuff like that to bed? Once a year, and only if I ask. One time in 9 years has she done it without my asking. How am I going to solve that? Who knows, I gave up long ago. Anyway, so like a dummy, I said something-"So, your just not going to wear lingerie anymore?" She gets all miffed because I said something, her reaction is,"Why would you say that, why don't you just ask?" I tell her, "Look, it just shot through my mind, I said it out loud, no big deal." We have had this fight 100 times, it gets nowhere. Inside, this is what I said: "F uuuuuuuuuuuuuuucccckkkkkkk you!!!! After all these years you still don't get that I don't want to have to ask? I hate feeling like Oliver Twist." Yeah, there is some resentment there. Big time. She just doesn't want to. It makes me happy, I enjoy it- this matters to her zero. Whether things were great or bad, she has never given a shit about this issue. 2nd example: I couldn't sleep tonite, so I come out here to post a bit. She wandered out about 20 minutes ago, turned on the T.V., flipped through channels for about 30 seconds, then turns the T.V. off. I ask her if she was alright, did she want to hang out or something, no, everything is fine, what are you up to, I am posting on FCP, blah blah blah. She knows exactly what I am doing, she just wanted to try and catch me doing something else. She can hear me typing. She was trying to catch me watching porn. I wasn't, HA HA. But, if I would have been, whose fault is that? She makes no effort, why should I? Why not save myself some aggravation? Yeah, there is some resentment there. On both sides, and neither is justified. Mexico, your advice was stellar. I will post some more about individuals thoughts and advice tommorow afternoon. Right now I have to go to bed. What do you think, should I say,"You were just trying to catch me watching porn!!" That could be fun, she will sulk and pretend that I am wrong and carry it around for years. Wheeeeeeee!!!!!!
in order of boldedWhat does her having hot friends have anything to do with anything in this world to a married man?Dinner at Mortons and buying CDs. That should ease her money concerns, unless she's a typical annoying woman and only complains about money being spent when it isn't being spent on her. (I'm bitter)Hamburglar, that would be so hot.I can understand a huge amount of resentment from you stemming from the fact that she is never the aggressor in sexual matters or the things that you like. Saldy, a lot of women prefer to be taken and prefer to be given instruction in bed rather than be the aggressor. Being aggressive can make a timid girl feel like a whore because she's been raised that way. You said it yourself, she was closely involved with a pedophile. You don't think she's gonna have major sexual issues, even though she wasn't finger banged at 11? You've got resentment? Uhhh, ya think? Sounds familiar. I'm thinking that some handsome, brilliant, slightly chubby guy wrote that somewhere.Thank goodness you weren't on Specbrad's Porn thread. That would've been funny. Thanks for the kudo, but you're just saying that because I begged for approval. SoBuddhist gave me kudos because I begged for it as well, and I gotta be honest, I'm ok with that. MK gave it to me because I send him noodz.Either way, best of luck but a true relationship killer is resentment and I think that is the hardest thing to get over. It's a work in progress for me. Especially sexual stuff. You kill yourself going down on a girl, romancing her, setting the mood, buying em dinner, everything, and they say they're tired or offer you a dry rub handy while acting like they are falling a sleep while giving minimal effort. It's just not fair. Now, brvhrt will correct if I'm wrong here, but I don't think I am, but that's why god created hookers and mistresses.
man, you are the best.
awww, I just want to hug your balls, with my mouth.

Knowledge doesn't mean shit if you don't use it. I know alot about options, I don't trade them, they scare the shit out of me. Everytime I do actually do things correct financially let's just say that I have the full power of Charles Schwab behind me.

That was a weird situation if I remember correctly, with NPI issues that it was best I not get involved.

GL with your relationship Lois, there is a lot of good, sound advice in this thread...I can't resist though (and you should appreciate the effort I made, and yes, I have sick MSPaint skills):image7B07D5B35D.jpg
Funny as ****. Looking at that swollen face though that guy needs more water and less gruel. Less vodka and redbull, too.

I wanted to use the Stewie/Family Guy version but I couldn't find a pic online. :club: It would have been so much more relevant, sigh.

That part was not to you, it was to MK. You didn't do anything wrong.I thought his post was funny because he is a bond trader, and since essentially you and I and him have the same licensing, I would have no idea how to do MK's job.

I take the 9 in two weeks or so and the ten coming up soon as well. I do not want to manage but the more "qualifications" the better I guess.

Are the 9 and 10 joined?I just took the 7 last week. I have been operating on just the 6 for 6 years.So now I have 6, 7, 63, and 65 and I don't want anymore. I don't want my CFP (as of right now) I don't want my 24, 3 or and anything else.

It's not the same test, but yeah basically it's a package deal. The 9 deals with Options and the 10 the regulatory side, more minutia and memorization than anything else. Not to bad.

yours was way better than mine, but I feel the need to post it anyway, though I'm not one of those that will post essentially the same joke as someone else has already done and not give them any credit or at least when someone makes fun of me for doing the same joke I won't go off about how 'jeez so I didn't read the whole thread' blah blah blah and just because I feel like making this sentence a bit longer, I kinda hate how when there's a big 'level' going on, people will be posting and obviously don't get that the whole thing isn't real, but later when it's widely known to be fake, they say that their posts were just adding fuel to the fire and you know what? Only I get to do that.Anyway, the one thing that stood out to me (the guy without any long term relationships) was this portion...
So, your just not going to wear lingerie anymore?" She gets all miffed because I said something, her reaction is,"Why would you say that, why don't you just ask?" I tell her, "Look, it just shot through my mind, I said it out loud, no big deal."
I don't like it when people aren't direct either. I mean obviously she's your wife so you don't want to be berating her, but passive-aggressiveness is a pet peeve of many people. When she does something you hate, responding with something she hates isn't the way to go. A playful "hey I'm the one who's supposed to take off your lingerie" or something would've been much better obv. Again though, this coming from me (the guy without any long term relationships). And, obviously it's much easier to say this than to do it in the heat of the moment.

I would go with your idea if I was a total homo. As it is, I am just half homo 1/4 panda bear and 1/4th poor black child so your line wouldn't work so much. Thanks though- I will keep it in mind for when I am making my famous Oliver Twist play. The thing is this- I can always take her if I want. That's doable, and Mexico pretty much nailed her personality. The thing is, I don't want to. I don't want to always have to be the aggressor, so if you have any advice on how to turn a bitch out I am all ears. What we are going for is finding the buttons to push, the keys if you will, to getting her to be the one to initiate action. Is it just me or have the women on this board completely ignored this thread? What, I need to blast Catholics to get Theresa to show up?

I don't consider LG or Jeopardy Buddhist women either.

I'm not sure that changing who a person is and how they do things is realisticly possible.the only logical thing I can think of is to straight out tell her that's what you're needing from her sometimes, but it seems like you've probably already made that plenty clear. since it's a woman logic can be thrown out altogether. there that might get some women posting for ya.oh. and, sometimes you need to act like, as you say, a 'homo' to get things done.

glad to hear you passed with flying colors. sorry about not responding, but i knew that if you kept studying you'd get it, there's nothing i could've really said to make you instantly understand the intricacies of financial derivatives; there's no way to learn that stuff outside of just grinding it out yourself. always willing to help on specific questions.
awww, I just want to hug your balls, with my mouth.
you, yeah you.

i don't know what any of this is supposed to be saying, but only a true snake oil salesman could convince himself that he has nothing left to learn about the markets. (how's that phd in math coming?) sounds like you've gotten so used to pimping yourself to your clients you've started to actually believe your own b.s. ?
I thought his post was funny because he is a bond trader, and since essentially you and I and him have the same licensing, I would have no idea how to do MK's job.
licensing is just a formality for us. a small group of us traders at my old firm were often asked to interview possible recruits and i always got a kick out of scaring the crap out of noobz by saying they'd be instafired if they didn't pass.

I miss your smell. Could you please, just for old times sake, start a political conversation with the conservative Bush fanboys and just destroy them? For me? For old times sake?

I believe the correct measuring gauge was called the Smugtrometer. I think.also, yes kind sir, you got after it and were brilliant. Sadly, you didn't stick with it for too long because you realized that arguing with people like that, that have as much logic as railroad spikes, was a waste of time. It was fun to watch though.
