Why do men feel the need to lie?

Seriously, I do not understand men sometimes.  I know that they think the same about us women, but sometimes, probably more accurate is rarely, I feel like I understand them.

My previous #1, said all of these nice things, such as that he wanted to take me off the market eventually.  Also I met his father, and spent a good deal of time with him, even after we had done the deed.  And then when I mentioned going out with other men, he got all pissy.  And I mean pissy.  I was upfront, from the beginning saying that I was dating other people, and I had told him I was going to see a movie with someone else.  It could have just been a girl friend of mine but I wanted to be honest.  Well, he got pissy, blamed his being distant on something else that was going on in his life and did not talk to me very often for about 3 week.

Needless to say, I found out that he started dating my BOSS!  He had made up this terrible excuse about meeting her in a bank a while ago, which is probably when he started talking to her on Plenty of Fish (PoF). Well that was the end to that... except he still had my iPod.  I had been asking him for it for month.  I had his, since he asked me to put different music on it, and he was using mine.  Well, we saw each other one last time, exchanged iPods and had one last fling before I do not talk to him ever again.  I hate to say that I did that, but this is my blog so I can say whatever I want, right? So we had one last tryst, and it was probably the best we have had, since we had started dating.

Anyway, so this drops my number down and also brings my number up at the same time.  I have reactivated my profile on PoF and am having some luck talking with some new men, and also some boys.  I seem to attract young men, more than I feel I should at my age, but oh well.  I will have fun.  This is a great site for getting back into the sea with respect to dating.  In fact a couple guys I was seeing months ago, found me again and we have reconnected. 

There are a lot of people on this site and they have all sorts of wants, needs and likes.  I am a plus sized woman, I am self confident, and I am happy (most of the time).  I have a great family, and good friends.  I have a job, which is better than some, and I enjoy my job most of the time which is better than most.  So It is not that I am complaining, its just I wish I understood what I need to keep doing to move forward in my life.I feel like I am meant for more than what is in my life right now.  I guess most people feel that at some point in their life, but knowing my family and especially my father, he expects it.  But that is another post for another day.  So until then, there are many more fish in the sea which is why I am on Plenty of Fish!
