Oh hell, I didnt feel "Flamed". It sounded like an honest opinion to me..and I cant argue with what someone else sees. I was just curious to know what triggered that statement that I'm an arrogant s.o.b. I really shouldn't have said..women take rejection harder than men.. that was a generalization which I had no right to make. About a year ago, I answered an ad in the personals, and, in talking to the lady on the phone, she said, "I dont know about this, you sound very "Lberal" to me. I said, now I suppose you are going to tell me you are a republican? " "Yes I am", she said. "Oh great," says I.."Are you also going to tell me you play the Saxaphone?" "YES, I do." she said. Ordinarilly, that would tear the rag off the bush, but, we had coffee anyway, and have been friends ever since. I dont sing folk songs, and she doesn't play Saxaphone. We mostly argue politics. We have nothing in common except our love of an intelligent conversation. She has no desire to "sleep with me" but, I dont feel rejected. She has every right to feel that way, and so do I. (But, I'll bet she hands out more rejection slips than I do!!) Sinsull, I dont have a long history of rejecting women, but, it has happened, usually, when I was married. When I'm married, I will reject any approach. (By the way, I'm single right now)
