My BF and I broke up tonight. After several years. He was unbelievably mean and cruel.
Started out nice and somewhere went wrong. I've been unemployed for 6 months and it's hard to find a job since I'm 60 even though I have a degree. He is very successful manager of a utility company. I thought I was pouring my heart out about being stressed and feeling awful about myself and he launched into a tirade about how I'm a smartass (I am) and how he wouldn't hire me.
I replied that I knew that and I did get fired from my last job (only time I've ever been fired) for having a bad attitude and that I owned it and had learned from it. He repeated no less than 10 times that "I'm a success and your a failure and you always try to give me advice". I asked him to stop it and he wouldn't. I told him earlier he had a mean streak so I guess he wanted to prove it.
I was reaching out tonight and guess I misjudged my lover of last 10 years. If there's anything I'm a failure at is the way I thought this man cared for me. Very hurt but not speaking to him for awhile till thoughts are straight.

2. Happens to many of us, bamademo;
I misjudged my lover/husband for a long time, and suffered for it. You're lucky you can get out.

4. There's no getting out. It's easier to let go when you are older.
After you've lost parents, etc. Guess I'll buy a BOB. They are not as selfish.

7. First, my sympathies. I really have no advice.
But this is driving me nuts. What's a BOB?

8. Battery Operated Boyfriend. :-) A vibrator in other words.

STILL not talking to mine. Will not talk to mine. ( long story)
I won't tell you that you won't hurt for a while, but you will keep going, you will make it through it!
Just focus on you right now. It is surprising how far you can go solo!

11. The worse thing is that he told me it was too late and I would always be a failure.
I don't know if that was he version of tough love or he really believes that. He hit me at my weakest point when I was seeking support.

12. i am sorry you are hurting
that was incredibly cruel of him of him to say that rather than try to be supportive.
my best to you

Sounds like he got tired of walking on eggshells just for a very cranky and self-absorbed shot of leg, and finally just spoke truth to stupid.

I don't understand how shacked-up women can believe the man cares anything about them beyond the bedroom.
DUmpette! If he cared, you'd be married!
When you're shacked up, it just means you're the best he can do - for now.

At 60, being a boy-toy is no longer part of your resume.
Let me translate her laments to Standard American English.
He was unbelievably mean and cruel.
In DUmmy speak that means he looked at her funny once. And he expects things from her apart from sex. In fact he probably said this on more than one occasion: "Look. If your gonna sit on your ass all day, you might as well clean up the place, maybe have dinner ready."
My BF and I broke up tonight.
Only one word can remove a DUmmy's vice-like grip from a sugar daddy. Work. He said, "Get a job or get out!"
The end result? Amber gets a roommate.

After enough bitching, moaning, groaning, whining and nagging, even 'BOB' is subject to breakup with her.

A good analogy for conservatism and leftism. Bamademo's tale of woe is leftism in a nutshell, the failed ideology talking condescendingly to the ideology that works.

Liar. She would take Dave back in a heartbeat if Chad was out of the picture.
Surprising how far you can go solo--from six months ago moping over Dave to successful Tucson artist--Ha!

You're not alone with your little sex toy thing, sweety. Lots of DUmmies actually named Bob probably use "BOB."
:gay2:

She should get a plug-in model and then take it into the bath tub.

DUmp scrunts need ones with a kick-starter.

Dear DUmbass,
You are a useless malcontent,filled with the insane anger of every demented leftist that lives.
It has gotten to the point where you are not worth dealing with at any job level.
He is sick of you and rightly so.
Welcome to the real world.

Amber refuses to talk to her vibrator? I'm surprised. She talks to lamp posts, Dumpsters, and hungry coyotes; why not her vibrator?

Damn thoughtful of Amber to throw in a short testimonial for vibrator sex, but I've never heard a woman say it actually hurt. I suspect Amber's doing it wrong.
*** If Amber is talking about Dreamboat Dave, then the Dyke on a Bike won't be happy to read that.

Given her track record in everything else she's done in life, that seems pretty likely.

Did I miss something here? I thought she was cavorting around in a tepee with Chief Running Drugs and cooking yeast fry bread for him.

That was so yesterday, those were her Sally days
She's moved on up to the east side :-)

DUmmies and B.O.B.'s... thanks for the "visuals." I won't be eating anytime soon.

To a deeeeluxe apartment in the sky.
She finally got a piece of the pie.

She didn't mention that he was a conservative or tea bagger so does that mean even another liberal saw her lazy butt for what it was?

Don't forget the short stint with Dykes on Bikes!

Give the Lady a break she says she is 60 years old not some young stuff of 49.
So much she left out, how long the BF had been around, was he married, His age and does he have a younger woman of 40 on the side ?
I will have to go back an reread her post, somehow replacing a human with a sex toy at her age is strange, at 60 she has her future to think about, only 24 months and she can collect #SS.

Sounds like he got tired of walking on eggshells just for a very cranky and self-absorbed shot of sixty year old leg, and finally just spoke truth to stupid.
