Craiglist
 
My 27 yr old daughter just called me after seeing that her live in boyfriend has been checking out women on Craigslist. He says he was just bored, and "you don't trust me anyway" YA THINK???!!! She doesn't think he has called any of these girls yet, but doesn't trust him. What is your take on this?

I think it's NOT okay to look. If he's bored, he should make dinner or paint the living room.

I hate the guy anyway. She works foodservice and dishes at a hospital, worked two 11 hr days in a row, and came home the second day to the kitchen being a wreck. He had been off work that day, and the day before, and yet she had to run 3 dishwasher loads before she could even find the sink :mad2:

here's a shocker for you.....he probably imagines other women when he wanks it, too, the filthy pig. I'd shoot him.

binky 03-24-2008 05:44 PM

I agree Cloud. He looks at porn, which I personally don't care about (my husband does too) but this is a whole different thing.

binky 03-24-2008 05:45 PM

don't think that hasn't crossed my mind LJ

Not OK to look?? Yikes! You'd have to pluck my eyes out!!

I do not believe that the mere reading of personal ads is in and of itself an indication of guilt or innocence. But if there are other problems/issues with the relationship the Craigslist incident can become a focal point for frustrations that really have their roots elsewhere.

Has she ruled out the possibility that perhaps he is just entertaining himself? I mean, yeah, he sounds like a lazy dude, but my husband and I can spend a whole evening laughing at craigslist ads. I don't know how anyone could take them seriously.

I agree with SD on this one. I also don't have a problem with porn, so looking at a few racy adds on an internet site wouldn't mean too much to me unless there were other problems.

I think I'd be pretty pissed off if Dazza had been watching porn all day instead of doing a tidy up around the place while I went to work. If I was coming home to a hot meal and a clean house though I'd probably ask him to show me what he'd found. ;)

I really don't mind the porn, but when he is looking at ads from women who are 10 or 20 miles away from where they live and "soooo horny" that just seems to be a different thing

SteveDallas 03-24-2008 06:24 PM

Maybe I'm either too innocent, or too jaded, or both, but when I see a listing from a young lady who is so horny she's just dying to hook up with the first guy who replies to her personal ad, I assume it's bogus.

binky 03-24-2008 06:26 PM

Hmmmm maybe he'll call and a 300 lb bearded guy will show up

lumberjim 03-24-2008 06:38 PM

how did this topic come up?

binky 03-24-2008 07:29 PM

That would be my first post

lumberjim 03-24-2008 07:44 PM

no....i mean how did your daughter bring this up? did she come to you in tears over it, or did it just come up as an oh by the by?
