Old trucks are sexy. The rougher, the better. No self-respecting country girl would be seen with a man who owns a Lexus. :wink:

I prefer to rent places. There's less responsibility involved for maintenance when you rent AND moving is a lot easier. I don't ever really want to own a home again. We stand to inherit one from family sometime soon. My husband knows my intention is to sell it rather than move into it.

Makes good money, has you outdoors, and it's a pretty steady job. But you're not alone. I was once called white trash because my husband was helping out his dad at the old scrap yard. He was "only" pulling in twice what this person was making, but because he wasn't wearing a suit & tie, that suddenly made us all white trash. Whatever.

The truth here is that people will find any excuse to justify telling someone "no" instead of just saying, "No." I mean, I know there are creeps out there who don't take "no" for an answer, but for the majority of people, "No" - without an attached explanation on how someone is somehow inadequate - would suffice.

Thats probably the worst one in this thread. Sadly a lot of people do this, too. It is so wrong.

I watched 10 minutes of that show and had to turn it off. I could feel the brain cells being pulled from my cranium.

"You're sucking the life out of me and I can't take it anymore."

This was a few weeks before the date we'd set for our wedding.

Yikes. All that time and effort just to have the rug yanked from under you. Sorry to hear that.

The funny thing is, six years later, we are really close friends. We were both unhappy and too young to get married, he was just the one who found the courage to speak up first. I still never got over the way he phrased it, though!

Most women have been pretty polite in rejecting me (that's worth something, as I know some guys who get really nasty rejections). I did have a girl laugh in my face once.

Well, it wasn't really a rejection line, but it left both me and my sister deeply scarred.

This guy we knew spent ages staring at my sister and me one day, and then announced thoughtfully:

"Isn't it weird how one of you got all the brains and one of you got all the beauty?"

Go figure which hurts most - being called ugly, or being called stupid.

It's a tough call.
