This is something that has been bugging me for weeks. About 3 weeks ago I was at the country club my girlfriend's family belongs to watching her play tennis and a kid near my age asked is she was my girlfriend and I said yeah he replied with good for you she's a knock out but later I heard him say to his friend how'd he ever get her. I know she loves me so that doesn't worry me but it's had me thinking does everyone think the same thing.
Am I the only one that worries about that?

Cheer up Blake,
I think the same thing sometimes when I see a young, hot piece of eye candy hanging on an older balding gent. Could it just be the money, could it be a blind date, or maaaaybe . . . . . just maybe, he has an infectious personality. A sense of humor, and confidence for miles.

Try not to sweat it ...he is just jealous that you have a hot girlfriend and he doesn't. If she didn't like you, she wouldn't be with you.

Who cares my little friend what they've said, perhaps that explains something about them, since they are not able to get a beautiful girlfriend on their own!

He gets my vote for Ass Hole of the month. As if we don't have enough to deal with, we gotta put up with people like that?

Anyway, I'm wondering - if this guy is AB, how is it that he doesn't have a hot GF, hmmmmmm?

edit: I'm surprise Edog hasn't demanded a picture of the alleged hotty.

Could be the case. But, in the words of a wise quad, "The more pitiful I am, the more the chicks dig me." :dev:

Douchebags always get the girl. Seems like somehow I ALWAYS end up being the guy that helps out the girl that's with a douchebag until the next douchebag comes along. Maybe if I were more of an asshole I'd get some that hang around too, but if I did that I'd hafta kick my own ass

And we'd all kick your arse too. Ever consider any behaviour like that and you'd better hope you have no sensation down there!!
