OK I really love the idea...but I can see where the drawer comes in. After a while who wants that much support?

It's fuzzy-minded liberal thinking like that that gets you eaten.

Isn't the lesson that if you say the right thing all the time you're boring and get dumped in a drawer after a little while? Gotta change it up once in a while by getting in trouble for partying with the boys all night and missing your anniversary. That's what keeps you out of the drawer.

Yes, it's the either the lack of trust or the overly neediness that is the source of the "trouble" but neither are our fault.
edit: well unless there was already an incident or something that makes the lack of trust warranted.

Once or twice a year lol
That's if you don't count weekly poker night. They're invited. They just rarely ever want to play. Well actually they're invited to Halloween at the local hot waitresses restaurant too. So, maybe once a year if there's a guy movie we all really want to see. Which is very rare considering how awful hollywood is these days.

There is a trust issue. But it isn't that they don't trust you. They don't trust the women out there and they are worried about you with alcohol diminishing inhibitions and judgment. What can happen when all of those things get together. Remember that the next time your woman seems a little cranky on guys night out.
Well first I have to get a gf again for that to matter
I'm just talking more in general.

No to rock the boat, but I think the "I dont trust the OTHER people" is a cop out.
I've been out with friends and verrry drunk and I still knew to say "no thanks". If you drink so bad your inhibitions are that off maybe instead of "out with the guys" you should be going "out to AA".

One could only WISH for a "Guy's Night Out".
I could write a book (from my own male perspective, of course) in regards to the trust issues that arise between men and women.
Once. Just once, I wish my wife would say something supportive or nice about me. But until that day happens, I have a gorgeous baby boy to keep my days bright.

So, there was a debate on the radio a while back where a guy called in asking who was right and who was wrong in an argument between him and his wife. The argument was over Mardi Gras. He had a yearly tradition of going to Mardi Gras with his high school buddies. His wife thought that now that he was married he shouldn't go.
His reasoning was: wtf you knew this was a tradition. Why do I have to stay home just because we got married?
Her reasoning (according to him) was: he should be more mature now. We're starting our own family and he shouldn't want to go out with the boys getting drunk and looking at drunk girls taking their tops off.
If that was really the argument I totally side with the guy. That is totally harmless. He's not going there to cheat. He's going to hang out with his old friends and be immature for a while. It's just for fun and just because he see some other woman's boobs he's not any less in love.
The women who called in to tell him he shouldn't go were using arguments like "you shouldn't go because it's upsetting to your wife and you should want to make her happy." That's a terrible argument IMO. That's just playing games of seeing how much control you can have over someone. There needs to be reasoning and understanding if someone is supposed to change their mind about something.
OK enough ranting about that. I just think that some of those types of situations are one or the other person building something up in their mind and over reacting.

See, my argument would be "why not go to Mardi Gras with your wife?" If she's not the one you wanna spend your spare time around, then why did you marry her?

Well, y'know the old saying.
A friend will get you out of jail. Your best friend will be in there with you.
