bruce potterMen are not Projects 3

Awake! Awake!
Okay, so I think I was venting a little too harshly with the first two posts on this through-line. I do promise this will be the last of a trilogy. And hopefully this will be a little more balanced.
Men are not projects, but they are much more inclined than women to be cheating, lying scumbags.
I've always objected to the mantra that "All men are bastards." Mainly because despite my best efforts I've never actually been able to pull an act of real bastardry. And as is patently clear, it's the bastards that attract the trully great women.
I know and have known some genuinely great women; to use a sportism, I've had the privilege of knowing some triple threat women. Girls who are wonderfully down to earth, terrific looking and intelligent. Girls who never act like princesses, yet through their modesty and humour, deserve to be treated like one. But these girls almost never wind up with a prince, they instead spend their time with scurrolous pigdogs of men.
One such girl said to me that their man was great, but he needed a label that read "ASSEMBLY REQUIRED." I could see what she meant, but more over I could see she was mistaken. He was always going to require assembly because he was a pathological liar who would never treat her the way she deserved.
And as I sit and watch the spinning chocolate wheel of infidelity that currently surrounds me, I do wonder if I've gone to sleep and woken up in some bizarro universe where nobody has a moral compass. I also bemoan the fact that everybody seems to be having a big infidelity party, and not only did I refuse to go, I didn't even get an invitation.
But I digress; Men are not projects because cheating conniving dooshbags will always be cheating conniving dooshbags.
Shane Warne has apparently slept with 1000 women. Let's assume some of this occurred prior to his marriage; but chronologically at least 600 of them must have happened after he was married. Surely one of those girls must have said, "No, I don't think I'll get involved with this retard cricketer with a hair transplant, because he's only going to cheat on me."
But frighteningly she probably said, "He's a great guy; he's just needs an ASSEMBLY REQUIRED sticker. I know - I can reform him."
And she then became girl no. 238.
And that leads us back to the theme; except for minor adjustments, men will be what they are. Cheaters will cheat; good guys will get good girls, and some triple threat girls will have their zest for life and spirit dashed on the rock of infidelity.
I don't know why cheaters do what they do; it's a topic for a far greater search in The
Beauty of Truth.

I just wanted to say how much I enjoyed this post!
What you see is what you get is pretty much it. Agreed. As a cousellor the number of women that I have to remind of this fact per week, is outrageous. Let*s face it, most women approach relationships creatively. . an adjustment here, a nip and tuck there and voila, still a doochbag!
((laughs))
great post!

Delighted to hear from you and that you enjoyed the post. I'm a little scared that a professional counsellor finds some merit in my very much amateur ramblings.
I hope you'll stay tuned as I have a lot more to say.
