Oh, Wonka, you always know just what to say...
I was absent-mindedly scrolling through pinterest and spotted this meme. Just felt like sharing with TN!

What's sad is that that sh!t never does get old and just about all of us know at least one woman who stubbornly is dating a guy who doesn't give a damn.
Case in point: a woman I know. Cheryl is dating a guy where the signs are everywhere that somebody else is in the picture. He's taken down Cheryl's photos. And the photos of his so called ex are everywhere in his apartment. He refuses to take them down.
Cheryl took one of the photos of the ex out of a picture montage -- the montage is full of photos of him and the so called ex and her kid --- and replaced it with her own photo. The next day, the picture of the ex was back. Cheryl's photo was put away somewhere in a drawer.
His excuse for returning the ex's photo to the montage: "these are my memories and I want them kept that way."
For the last 3 years -- the entire scope of their dating relationship -- he's been putting Cheryl off. (and the not so ex has been in the picture since long before he met Cheryl). He's been flaky with texting, he talks to Cheryl like dirt,
The sex is gone from their relationship -- he claims he's got a testosterone deficiency and has had that diagnosed by a doc....but funny there's no medical prophylaxis that he's gotten to alleviate the problem --- Cheryl bought this hook line and sinker. She accepts it that there's no more sex. Thinkis it's fine and dandy that since last December, no sex for them.
We all know that when a guy gets flaky with sex or there is no more that it's pretty much spelling it out that it's over.
Cheryl's incessantly cried over him. Cheryl's complained about him. Says she's sick of being treated like a nobody, blah blah blah... God helps those who helps themselves --- I've told her repeatedly to leave this jerk.
"But I loooove him...." is the reply.
It never does get old.
And I'd be good and bleeped if I tolerated a boyfriend who kept photos of his ex in clear sight and I wouldn't tolerate the fact that my photos were taken down and put away in a drawer.
I've never understood these jerks who date 2 women or more and pull a Boeing Boeing routine: play dumb and lie to these women and claim that she is the only one he is dating. It's sick and cruel and ugh, risky as hell -- who wants an STD? -- and it's this whole power trip thing that these guys are on.
And sooner or later?
These guys get found out. Pity.
Getting back to the jerk guys where the sh!t never gets old: they'll complain he's cheap, he never calls, he puts her on a shelf, he spends too much time with his friends and not her, he forgot her birthday her this or her that (and has done it repeatedly) he's never around when she needs him, she's tried to call him but his phone is shut off and/or he's not replying to her texts, etc etc etc.....
But get rid of this guy?
Unthinkable.
