    That being said, yes I have looked at other women. I'm taken, but not dead or blind... but never once have I said "if only I were single." That goes away when you find the right one.
    That's where I think you are taking things too literally. "If only I were single". Different strokes for different folks.

      Downright ignoring might be a little drastic, and again misguided.

      If you truly are an "exception to the rule" as you so often state, I'll take the wait and see approach.

      And maybe you were being using the original term of "If only I were single" too loosely, but your rationale didn't exactly support your cause.

        I dont think I have ever refferred to myself as an "exception to the rule". There is no rule. It is how you feel. Not a rule.

          I apologize, you put it as being "wired differently".

            Being wired differently means everyone is different (Me v You). Being an exception to the rule means you are a rare case in which a rule doesnt not apply.

            I didn't put it as anything. It's just completely different from exception to the rule.

              I'll step out of the convo but I'll say this: VT, from what you're saying, and by forming my opinion based on experience, along with professional advice, it seems like you show signs of a man in a relationship that isn't as best as it could be, or not with the best person you can be with. Just my opinion tho.

                I think it's pretty ridiculous to feel that way about someone on a message board, but hey. If you say so.

                  It is, I can't possibly know any more than what you put on here. But going just from what you've said, that's my opinion. And by no means is it an insult to you or your girl or your relationship.

                    LOL, don't make all your opinions with such a vast lack of information or insight. It may get you in trouble.

                      I wasn't trying to say the meaning of those two terms were parallel. I misquoted you. But thank you for the definitions.

                      However, you act as if we aren't all men, and don't love naked women/alcohol or partying with our friends.

                      Implying that you feel a strong desire for these things when you're spending time with your girlfriend, shows that there is some inadequacy there, however you want to rationalize it.

                      What were saying is, if you are in a real, meaningful lasting relationship, the need to feel those things shouldn't be there, because they should already be fulfilled in one way or another.

                      And you can agree to disagree. It doesn't really matter to me. It's your relationship, not mine. I have a close friend who would tell me these exact same things you are saying right now, and him and his girlfriend of 2 1/2 years just separated two weeks ago after he thought they would last forever.

                        Your friend does not = Everyone. You are misunderstanding a lot of what I am saying and the back and forth is tiring. Happy for you though.

                            Of what, has anyone crossed the line? No.

                            It's a debate aka what a forum is for.

                            You know I love you though.

                              Maybe you're deflecting, but I'm not sure what there is to misunderstand. Everything you've said has been pretty black and white.

                              But the back in forth is indeed tiring. We aren't going to convince you of anything that you don't already think you know or do know.

                              We'll be awaiting an OS wedding invitation when the planning begins.
