Of course, the old duffers at McDonald's are all having affairs and spending
huge sums on expensive menu items for them there. :-)

You watch to many Hollywood soaps... in real life I've not seen many
well to do elderly gents with gals in their 20s... however I've seen
lots of well to do elderly gals with guys less than half their age,

May not start that way but over time that's typically what occurs...
most platonic relationships don't take very long to become intimate.
And nowadays with email and cell phones it's rather easy to advance to
intimate quickly. The more someone tries to convince me that their
relationship with their spouse's friends are platonic the less I
believe them.

Everybody on this rock has seen this. Old Filipino men married to young Filipino girls. It's a cultural thing. I cannot fathom how such a system could work out on sociobiological level.

You're very naive... affairs have to start somewhere.

We've seen this a lot when old white guys marry young Asian girls. They think they're going to get a free, doting, servant for life but it rarely turns out well for them. Their kids mostly get shafted with any inheritance. My wife's dad was one of these people. OTOH, most everybody got the shaft. My mother-in-law had to escape from an abusive marriage in Korean but she traded it for 7 more or less wild white kids in America. That's tough for an Asian woman from a rich family.

This is Phllipina #2 for Art - #1 died of asthma.

Their kids mostly get shafted with any inheritance. My wife's dad was
one of these people.

Art has a son that I believe fits that bill, sadly.

OTOH, most everybody got the shaft. My mother-in-law had to escape
from an abusive marriage in Korean but she traded it for 7 more or less
wild white kids in America. That's tough for an Asian woman from a rich

Dang, that's a real downer tale.

I hope he imparted _some_ wisdom to those sprouts!

Asian women have a lot of common sense that never seems to be
recognized, imo...

I got a lot of that from my calm, reserved, mom. My wife came from a family that was the opposite from my mom. Her mom escaped/exiled from her homeland and placed in an untenable situation in America. My wife's experience closely mirrors this woman's.

In some countries to marriages are pre-arranged and money to the family
is involved. I cannot imagine a woman having to marry like that.

Well, as you say, you don't get out much and I seriously doubt that you
would find *fat walleted* men in the places you frequent.

Dowrys are still common in much of the world... was very common in the
US a hundred years ago.... and dowries were more common where the
women's family pays, especially in Europe.

I can imagine that. I can imagine a lot of nasty things happening to females because for the most part, it's a man's world and they are powerless.

It's you who doesn't get out much... there are plenty of very wealthy
people in farm country... they are not all Erskine Caldwell types.

Exactly... there are far more very wealthy people per capita where I
live than in large urban centers... and most of the wealthy people
here are females, typically into livestock breeding of all kinds and
especially race horses.

People often guess about things they don't know and it can
sometimes turn ugly.

Case in point: It was my daughter's 16th birthday and I
was almost age 42.

I told her to pick a restaurant and I would take her.
She loved Outback Steak House so that's where we
went.

She dressed up nicely in her black dress for the special
meal and we headed off to dinner.

While there, our waitress (maybe age 30 or so), treated
her very well and me not so well at all. Anytime she
talked me, it was with glaring eyes, cold voice, and
a 'Clint Eastwood' grimace on her mouth.

I didn't want to assume things so I ignored it during the
meal but it was the same thing each time she came to
our table to check on us. Nice to daughter and cold
to me.

Finally dinner ended and I asked for the check and also
asked if she would give us a "doggy bag" for the leftover
steaks.

Glaring at me, she asked coldly,
"Will those both be for the SAME house, SIR?"

I was ready for it. I told her: "Yes, she will be sleeping
at my house tonight. She lives with me. She's my daughter
and this is her 16th birthday dinner."

Would have loved a video of that moment. The waitress' eyes
went wide and mouth dropped open. She was stunned.

She immediately apologized to me and said, "I'm a social
worker and I see this all the time." Evidently she sees
older men dating young girls all the time."

I probably could have talked to the manager and gotten a free
dinner and her yelled at - maybe even fired but I didn't want to
mess up daughter's birthday. She wasn't paying attention to this
so I think she missed it.

So I told the waitress that she should never assume things that
she doesn't know about. I paid the bill and even gave her a
decent tip and we left. I just dropped it and hopefully that was
a good life lesson to her. Anybody can screw up once in a certain
situation.

Anyway, daughter had a good birthday. I didn't leave so happy. I
can't blame the restaurant for that but to this day I still have
a bad attitude about the place and I'll never eat there again.

Besides - I make a better steak dinner than they do anyway. I
should have cooked it that night.

That was my one bad restaurant experience.

These days, I don't even care eat at restaurants. When I
sometimes crave restaurant food, I'll order takeout.

Had some good friends come to visit last year and they wanted to
take me to an India restaurant. I talked them into ordering
take-out and it was so much nicer. Rather than sitting at a table
and getting rushed out so they can bring someone else in, we
bought a good variety and sat at my dining room table for about 2
hours and a good leisurely meal.


OK...that story was a bit long. Sorry about that. ;o

I don't believe that for a minute.

Why didn't you tell them that when you walked in? Taken the
host/hostess aside and said, "It's her birthday". Place like Outback
will give her free a slice of cake or pie or something.

Sure she was.

It's an interesting story. I only halfway believe it. I do believe
older men with young women who look like teens are often suspect. But I
don't believe you'd sit there with the waitress glaring at you and your
daughter throughout the meal without speaking up. Or without your
daughter noticing it. (I do hope you weren't snuggled up next to her
all cozy in a booth. LOL)

I also don't believe the server suddenly announced she's also a Social
Worker. If she had been, she'd have gone quietly in the back and called
her boss and the cops.

It reminds me about the time I cracked a joke and my sister in law
flipped out. We were sitting in a beer garden in Baden Baden, Germany,
and were beside a jewelry store where we could see a very prosperous
looking man with a very attractive young woman. SiL thought they were
lovers and that the man was a sugar daddy and that he was buying her
jewelry. I suggested that she was his daughter and that they were
probably looking for a present for his wife/ her mother.

SiL insisted that he was a sugar daddy and said I might be surprised how
much men would spend to have sex with young girls. My filters slipped
out off and I said that if you get them young enough all it takes is a
Big Mac and an order of fries. She flipped out.

Most of the posters here don't believe anything anybody says. Why is that? This is like a group of professional non-believers.

Sometimes you just know that something is the product of the poster's
imagination. Gary was worried that people would think he was dating a
16 year old and from that fear he made up all the rest.

You make a really tepid psychoanalyst, even for a rancid Auztarded troll.

I think there's more Pyridoxine Hydrochloride in the Rice Chex.

Okay, I believe you. I, personally, would not have sat there and let a
server *glare* at me every time she came to the table. I'd have asked
what the heck is your problem?!

When people post barroom stories people are not likely to believe...
epecially since with those fairy tale type stories there is no way to
prove/disprove what occured. However like yesterday I spent four
hours mowing, and I spent six hours mowing today, and plan to mow
again tomorrow (weather?) and finish up as it's the last mow of the
year. I can easily prove that I mowed for the non believers but ask
me if I give a rat's b-hind. This time I had to mow alone as I lost
my partner while her knees mend.
Anyways, we don't socialize alone with people of the opposite sex...
we've both been around the block several times and we know very well
where that kind of behaviour leads... we both know with absolute
certainty that there is no such thing as platonic relationships
between people of the opposite sex, no way, no how, not possible, not
on this planet.
Anytime someone tries to convince us that they are only going out to
dinner and to see a show without their spouse LOUD sirens go off.

No doubt you have a PhD in non-believing. This qualifies you to be the King of RFC. That would be fun.
