Why is it that NT women are wanting to date men who have girlfriends so bad?

The only thoughts that could come to mind is: Man with girlfriend must be valuable, man with girlfriend must be attractive, and the challenge of getting him to leave said girlfriend.

Except that when he and I got together, this woman was his ex-gf. He went back to her because of his work relationship with me (had to keep it secret at work).

For some reason WP never lets me post images without mutating the links.

It's the same for me too. It was doing that for YouTube vids & I made a post about it in the tech site section & I got the advice that it could of been due to a browser addon. I uninstalled all my addons & FireFox & YouTube vids work rite now but the images still won't work but maybe it will fix the image issue for you :shrug:

Aye, right! :roll:

He slept with another woman to disguise the fact that he was sleeping with you!

This falls into the same category of BS as "my wife doesn't understand me"!

He was horny and took advantage of the fact women are atracted to men who have women already and went for it!

Indeed so, and by now I reckon that Alla surely realises this at least on some level.
;-)
The whole "smokescreen" effect was discussed in that previous topic.
My mum said this, which I would agree with... and Alla said that one of her friends said the same thing.
:idea:

:-D As Alla is from Ireland, I felt it fitting to write this limerick about her romantic situation.

There was a young lady from Cork
Who shagged her boss like a dork
Things went tits up at work
the whole thing got borked
And now two guys are giving her pork.

:thumleft:

Oh, another Aye right! called for here with the emboldened "fact". Is this something that bitter single men try to console themselves with? The reason they can't get a woman is that they haven't already got a woman? :roll:

What he said isn't totally scientifically true, did you check my links?

My ex boyfriend and I were dating each other for a year while he was on/off with his older girlfriend. She found out about us (we all work in the same place) and asked to meet me to talk. I told her a few things and the following day he was furious with me for talking to her. We broke things off, I told him never to talk to me again, and I went no contact for a month.

Forty days later, I go back to work (it was right after the holiday break) and he was shocked when he saw me. He talked to me briefly about some work related issue, I responded nicely, and he looked relieved that I was in fact talking to him.

A week later, we see each other at a work function and he could barely look me in the eye, would turn his back, and talk to almost everyone except me. I didn't make an effort to go up and talk to him but would give him gentle eye contact throughout. I sent him an e-mail a couple of days ago asking to meet with him in order to have him sign something for me and he has not replied, which is unusual for him.

Why the distance and nervous feelings? He knows I talk to him now and was behaving well a few weeks ago. Is he angry or is there something else going on (maybe he got back together with his ex and she told him not to talk to me?)

I ask not because I want him back but because he is the boss and I don't want to be in his bad books. I want us to be friends, but his behavior seems to indicate otherwise. What do you think is going on?

This isn't weird. Males and females live in separate packs and that's why they feel awkward around each other.

A young Irish lass, she was blessed
with a libido poorly suppressed
after shagging her boss
now she's at a loss
since he plainly could not care less

Gal meets girl for a talk
and boss went amok
he puts her on block
Yet she still wants his cock
