    This has been most entertaining a thread.

    I wish the way things are in this country were less selfish. After all, this is a country that champions individualism, and in it has its issues -- like what's in it for ME. And lawyers know too well the price of individualism.

    Back to the topic, an idea is to deliver Mickey Rourke's line from 9 1/2 weeks:
    "I buy and sell money."

    Maybe. It seems (I'm not quite sure) that consciously she is trying to change her man (control) but unconsciously she wants to be controlled. In other words, if she can control her man then she may view him as a weak man then she won't love him and on the contrary if she cannot control him then she may view him as a strong man then she'll probably love him.

    Any proof?

    Good for you.

    If only she had a few brain cells, the thinking would/should be – wow, this guy can afford losing 5K in just one day and still able to pay the whole bill .... :eek: :p :D

  5. Very positive thinking there. Not bad, but what I think she really thought was either of this two.

    1.- This guy lost 5K today and he is not crying and/or is miserable. He will for sure lose our house and not give a damn either... screw him!

    or

    2.- This guy just wasted 5K on his gambling habit and only spends $ 50.00 on me for dinner....screw him !!

    (sad but probably true)

    :D

    90% of the women I meet scoff at first at the subject, until I tell them I've done it for years, and then most then completely shift their demeanor.

    'Daytrading' just isn't understood very well by many people.

  7. If they can't see the potential, don't waste your time?

    I really hesitate to publicize strategies for trading -- I mean dating -- on ET, because if everyone uses them they will stop working.

    So this is a secret just for those of you reading this thread instead of watching the Super Bowl (keep it to yourself): Read some romance novels to learn what women want. Find out which type your particular lady enjoys in order to find out what she wants.

    It just makes sense -- wouldn't you love it if your lady explored your porn collection to mine it for ideas on how to keep you interested?
