Where ever it went, they sold my name and email address to probably hundreds of sleazy companies. I get 20 to 30 emails a day offering Las Vegas vacations, viagra, breast enlargement etc.
Lesson Learned: Don't EVER respond to and email unless you know who it is from. The marketplace is full of dishonest people looking for some fool.

Lesson Learned: Sometime the innocuous things come back to bite you in the a**.
Details: The reason I did not want to share a salad was I did not want to be beholding to him in any way. After all, it was only our second date. At our wedding, the minister shared the story with all our friends and now my husband throws it up to me every time I ask if we can share something.

Lesson Learned: Learn to dance, or learn to run.
Details: My life flashed before me and I just know that this was going to be a painful death. I started groveling like Ghadafi in front of the rebels. This guy was more tolerant and, for whatever reason, just walked away. Maybe I was too low to the ground for him to reach down and hit me.

Lesson Learned: When my local bank was bought by a big nation bank, I kept my account because I believed what they said. Within a month I realized that what they did and what they said were not even close to being the same. Worse than politicians.
Details: I had a saving and check account with a small local bank. Because I kept $2000 minimum in the savings account, I did not have to pay any fees. They were bought by, I’ll call them, First Greed of America. They sent me a notice that they would be taking over in three months, but nothing would change. Every two weeks after that I got junk mail from them assuring us the Nothing Would Change. When First Greed finally took control and sent my monthly statement, there was a $6 ‘membership assessment’. I was assured that this was not a monthly fee, but an assessment. Next month I got another $6 membership assessment. I went down to the bank and very politely said WTF. I was not paying any fee before, but now I am and they had repeatedly said there were not going to be any changes. The teller was no help, so I talked to the manager, who was the same from before. He told me there was nothing I could do because of the new rules from the new owners. I closed both accounts.

Lesson Learned: Don’t let anyone do work for you unless you get references first. And never, never, sign with someone who pressures you to do it now.

Lesson learned: Listen to what people say. It will tell you things that are important about who they really are.
The details: While we were still dating Lilly had told me a story that she though was very funny. It was, but I missed the really important part of the story, or chose to miss it. Her boy friend at the time was a musician. One day a friend of his came into town and sine the boy friend was busy, he asked Lily to entertain the friend, I think his name was Raul. Raul, Lily, and her dog jumped in the truck and went site seeing in the mountains. After a couple of hours and more than a few beers, they stopped of the side of the road, got a blanket out of the truck, and began to do it doggie style on the ground. Well, the dog saw Raul’s bare ass and he jumped Raul. They all fell over laughing. It is a funny visual, but what I missed was the Lily was a slut. She cheated on her boy friend, just like she cheated on me.

Nov 9, 2011 02:11 PM - Battle Of The Sexes - by John (man)
Lesson Learned: Pay attention to what someone does, not what they say. She had called off our relationship once and she did it again. This time, however, I was left with no where to live.
The Details: I had met Claudia playing tennis. She was a knockout and almost six feet tall. We both felt a connection right away and started seeing each other almost every night. I would be at her apartment or she would be at mine. The sex was like nothing I had ever experienced. Then one day, with no reason, she said we were through. I moped around for a week and then one night she showed up at my place and said she had made a mistake, she wanted me and would never do that again.
A few weeks later she invited me to move into her apartment. I was still thinking about the time she left me, so I asked her at least three times, “are you SURE.” She said yes. It took me two weeks to move all my stuff, one car load at a time. I was settled in for another two weeks when she dropped the hammer on me again. She said we could get together once in a while for sex, but she lied about that too.
