Living With Lonely Author

Published on by thelonelyauthorblog

Imagine Lonely Author is single, you and I are starting a relationship…..yeah I want to brush your hair, paint your toe nails, meet your friends, watch TV and movies with you, massage your feet, take you shoe shopping, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH…

No, it’s not all bananas and roses…

To be fair and balanced, here is a list of the complaints from old girlfriends, wives, and Allie.

1- Chimp loves to spoon. Not a problem? Well, I have a bad sinus problem so I SNORE. To give you an idea, while on a long distance flight to visit a girlfriend a stewardess woke me up because “my snoring scared the other passengers.”
2- Flirting. Last year prior to my surgery, with Allie standing by my side, I invited a nurse to go bowling with us after surgery. (If you’re the jealous type you have to let me know, so I can tone it down).
3- This may bother some ladies; I need a tissue to watch some movies. Seriously, did Leo have to the die in the freezing water?? Couldn’t Kate scoot over just a bit?  Bitch.
4- Disorganized work space.
5- I help with ALL chores, including laundry, but I hate folding. Don’t ask me to fold. Also if I pull a t-shirt from the bottom of the drawer where you left everything neatly folded, good chance it won’t be as neat as you left it.
6- I talk to myself to rehearse dialogue. Done it in the street, on the train, etc.  I’ve received many smacks from butterflies (including my daughter) for doing so.
7- This drives me absolutely insane. Serious conversations & dinner dates are cell phone-less. I need eye contact. You can blog, text, DM, Facebook, or twitter your booty off, but I refuse to talk to the back of your phone.
8- Overprotective (not in that clingy creepy way). You have all the freedom in the world to go out as often as you want with whomever you want. Chimp is secure enough to not fret about that. But he will worry about your safety.
9- I worry. Years ago, I lost my parents (my only family). I don’t want to lose anyone else.
10- At bedtime, before my head touches the pillow, I’m asleep. So any question you ask will be answered with a LOUD – See number 1.
11- I need time for blogging & writing.
12- I remove your shoes. Please respect this.
12- Terrible at saving.
14- Will jump at anyone who says anything bad about you. Back when I had a Facebook page, a cousin once said something hurtful to Allie about how an outfit fit her. I responded with several nasty comments that ripped her cousin to shreds. I have no mercy with bullies or anyone who attacks someone’s insecurities.
15- When we go out I need to see you wear lipstick or gloss whatever you prefer. (Make up is up to you).

    1. That is so nice to know. I need to be with a woman who is good at saving and budgeting. Don’t do drugs. don’t gamble, no smoking. But I love to shop!!! This is the main reason my daughter’s mother left me. Her main goal in life is to own a home. Wasn’t going to happen with me.

  4. Nice post except for this line at the top of the list you provided To be fair and balanced, here is a list of the complaints from old girlfriends, wives, and Allie. This statement should read all about you as some of those points are all your pet peeves. Chimpy stay on the ball.

    1. Yeah, but even the pet peeves can be annoying. You may see all these ladies love the removal of shoes, but little things like that can grate with time. The talking to myself irks women to the point of yelling at me. The refusal to walk besides a mate without lipstick. The mess I will make of a drawer? All of these things annoy. It may be cute in the beginning but with time…

  7. Well, we all have our flaws. Also would like to point out that a lot of these things are generally nice things to do (taking off my shoes?! Why, yes please and how flipping kind of you. I wish somebody would take off my smelly shoes! We (us kids) used to take off my dad’s shoes and socks when he got home from work shattered and flopped on the sofa). I wouldn’t call most of these things something to complain about (please worry about me, I worry about you often enough – overprotective in a non creepy way!? Well, I’m glad to know you care!) .. but then again, each and every one of us has different peeves.

    1. Smiling. You have to put away your phone before we have any serious conversation. That is okay?? Making a mess of the draw you took the time to fold?? Pouting if you take off your own shoes?? You don’t find that bizarre?? Thanks for reading.

    Me to a tee.
    Although my “folding” is painting. Don’t ask me to paint. I simply cannot. It once took me an entire weekend to paint a wall.
    Fortunately I no longer snore since weight loss surgery and therefore can spoon with the best of them, as long as I don’t get too hot. Too hot and I fidget!
    I too have bitten back at anyone who says anything bad, disrespect or upsets my nearest and dearest and woe betide the person that does because the last guy was treated with having his head put through a brick wall….
    I’m a nice guy really though…!

    1. LOL I am considering surgery to fix my sinus problem, because my snoring is terrible. So, happy you conquered it. Spoon away my friend. That is one of the true joys of life. Interesting how alike we are. I am a super sweet guy, but I have zero tolerance with bullying and injustice. Wow, You really respond to the bad guys. I just humiliate them. I also get annoyed with people who take advantage of the defenseless. Thanks for reading my craziness. Appreciate it.

    1. Yeah, refocusing. My daughter is coming by tomorrow, so I will take the day off tomorrow. I saw a post on another blog about a woman discussing “the perfect marriages” of other blogs and seen on Facebook. So, I commented and her response was a sweet compliment to me, but totally unrealisitic. So, I wanted to make sure I am not preojecting a perfect Chimp. I have my faults and quirks. Thanks for reading.

          1. Okay, well, I agree about the phones, that drives me crazy. Saving? Well, one is always better than the other, hopefully Allie is good with money. Crying over movies, it’s okay. I’m the sobber in our family, though. Writers always talk to themselves, we don’t find that weird. The flirting? Too much would bother me but I’d tell you and we’d work it out. The shoes, the lipstick, the snoring, we all have some things. I call myself the current wife, but it might piss me off if hubby called me that;) other than that, you’re a real pain to live with and should change almost everything about yourself , lol. Happy now?

            1. Thanks for that. LOL LOL The flirting I control with jealous women. Allie is not very good at saving either. My daughter’s mother wanted a house, so that inability to save lead to our downfall. And so sorry, I said current wife to distinguish her from my first wife. Oooh, I would never say that in front of her. Thanks for reading my nonsense.

      1. I can understand the phone thing. It’s pretty annoying when you’re spending quality time with your loved ones and they are distracted with their phone although I’m guilty of that sometimes. Inability to save – well, depends. If it’s really bad I might have to sit down with you and talk it out. 😀 The non-stop flirting is probably the least endearing one of all… Although I’ve learned that you can flirt and love so many people but only one person really has your heart, body, mind and soul. 🙂

        1. Exactly. My daughter’s mom was the jealous type. So, I curbed it for her. Regarding the phone thing, I hate having to repeat a conversation because she wasn’t paying attention the first time. It really annoys me. Now, about the flirting, it is all harmless fun. I have never cheated on any woman. If I need to cheat, then I rather have a “goodbye this isn’t working out” conversation first. No reason to cheat. Well, what I wanted to convey is I’m not perfect.

    1. Our time is our time. I stop blogging, I expect my mate to stop with the phone & Facebook. It’s fair. The saving thing is bad. That was one of the things that destroyed my relationship with my daughter’s mom. She wanted to buy a home. I have gotten better, but I have to work at it.

    1. Laughing. You did?? You don’t know how much this will annoy. I get yelled at “What?? I need the lipstick!! You said I am pretty, so why do I need lipstick??” I always purchase two of my mates favorite lipstick in case she forgets hers, I have one in my pocket. I am just being honest – my quirks will annoy. No one will disrespect my mate. Every man needs to stand up for their mate. Thanks for reading.

      1. Well, if I had to cite something, it would be snoring. I used to spend countless nights in another bedroom or on the sofa. If I was asleep first, it didn’t bother me and that was what happened most of the time. It was more important for Loser to go to the bathroom and read and smoke than come to bed. (didn’t bother me because I had gotten to the place where I couldn’t stand for him to touch me anyway)
        It would be a non-issue with me as far as your dislikes about tweeting, texting and that crap. I would never stand for it. If I can’t hold your attention, you are not for me and I don’t need to be there.
        You DO understand that everything you state is completely alien to me as far as my experience, don’t you?

          1. I became intimate with my sofa. It’s funny. My two oldest daughters (the ones who don’t speak to me) used to think I was this despicable bitch for not only leaving our bed but complaining about something as ridiculous as Loser snoring. They really did think I was horrible.
            Ah….but they got their comeuppance when they both married men who snore. Suddenly, mom wasn’t such a horrible person and they understood.

  26. These are complaints? Shame on them. I live with a snorer, so ok I kind of agree with that one and the last one is a bit strange. I neither wear lipstick nor gloss. Never have, never will. Just not my thing, and you would need to respect that. Now, come get my shoes 😃

                    2. Life has been kicking my ass. I truly hope to have something new very soon. I have several stories swirling around in my wicked mind. I just need to have the time to write them down. Maybe I should hire you to stay close to me do I could dictate and you could write it for me. NAW! We wouldn’t get ANY writing done if you were close. 💋

  29. Chimp you and I would do ok, except for a few things:
    1) The snoring would drive me crazy, as I don’t sleep a full night now. You really should go and have a sleep study done. You probably need a cpap machine, as sleep apnea is very dangerous.
    2) The spooning would be nice for a few minutes after intimacy or just to talk for a moment. But when it’s time to sleep, I don’t want anyone or thing touching me. Not even a foot.
    3) I like my freedom. I have been single for far too long. I enjoy going to eat or a to a concert with my friends. I don’t want someone up and under me 24/7. I would expect chimp would want the same.
    4) I am not a good saver either. I’m just not. Not that I shop, but I buy only what I need.
    5) I am not the jealous type, unless I have been threatened or belittled by an ex. I really not jealous then. Just extremely pissed off and I say what is on my mind. Asking another lady to go bowling, is harmless. Doesn’t bother me. My friend in he world is a man. Would kill someone over him. He is a priority in my life. Smiles.
    6) Being pampered would be nice, but it is not something I need. I don’t know what being pampered really means. I don’t need all of that. I am just me.
    7) I agree 100% about conversation at dinner and putting away the cell phone. It’s called mannerism. Something I have and is bred into you here in the south.
    8) I worry also. I too have lost my parents and a sister. I can’t explain the loss I have experienced in my life.
    9) The shoe shopping. Well.. Yes I would let the chimp buy me a pair of shoes as long as they are comfortable. I am all about comfort these days.
    10) Oh and the drawer issue. I am OCD. You would have to learn to clean up and put things back neatly, or you will not get any bananas. Smiles.
    11) I am going to add his to the mix. I will never ask permission to go out or buy what I need. Especially when I work. I used to work with two ladies. We would go to the mall after work. They would say to me, “we need to keep out packages in the truck of your car for a few days.” They would have to sneak their purchases in the house. They had set up their own post office box, to have their credit card statements mailed too. I told them there was no way in hell I was living that way.
    12) The chimp or anyone else reading his may not agree with what I have posted, but it is what it is. That does not make me a BITCH!!! Smiles

    1. LOL You have me in tears. Haha 1 & 2 wow. O.o Devastating. 3- Freedom is expected. Spread your wings butterfly. I am not a baby sitter or watch dog. I would like an occasional text, Hi I am okay. After that do as you please. I’m working on the saving thing. The jealousy thing only would come out if you acted like Devil Girl. And the flirting, I do it for fun. I didn’t do it when I was with Catherine’s mother. She had zero tolerance. Respect of our mate is #1. The nurse laughed at me. Who goes bowling after surgery?? Chip shrugging. Everyone woman deserves to be pampered. Comfort shoes is fine. Do you have a problem with flat sandals?? Men need to understand a woman isn’t attractive when she is uncomfortable. Hmmm OCD. I’m not a slob. I prefer to mop, you can sweep. I put everything back IN ITS PLACE (Aliie doesn’t) including the toilet seat. When I do the dishes, I clean the stove and counter as well. Wow, can’t believe you said the word permission to moi. I want a mate, an equal partner, not someone I will trat as a child. Permission is unnecessary. Unfortunate situation of your lady friends. But I would expect my mate to shop. Whenever I can I would provide a contribution. (That is what gets me in trouble with the saving). No, one needs permission from me. And these things don’t make you a BITCH. Thanks for reading and responding. So, to sum it up, WE WILL DO OKAY as long as I sleep in another room, let you shop, not over worry, give you freedom, never expect you to ask for permission, tread carefully with your OCD. This Chimp in his younger days woud have been in costant fights with Scarlett. But this Chimp now, can adapt to anyone. I have learned.

  30. Are you kidding me? These are the BAD things?? This may be a long comment… my apologies… I am very sorry… I’ll find my own special way to make it up to you.

    Seriously… brush my hair? paint my toe nails? MASSAGE MY FEET? take me shoe shopping? I’m already done… I can get over nearly anything if I have those… 😛

    1- I would get earplugs or whatever else was needed if I could have the spooning. (There are things missing from my life… this is one!)
    2- I’ll give you this one. I would start out okay with this, but I would get jealous… and I’d start to worry that you found or would find someone to… replace me.
    3- Crying during movies? Please. I still cry every single time I watch Tangled. An animated Disney film. That I have seen probably 100 times. And this proves you have a heart. And feelings. Something many men are missing.
    4- I am also a bit disorganized… but I kind of like organizing. I’ll straighten you out. (Oh my) And I’ll organize your workspace, too.
    5- I will fold but I will fight with you when you mess up the drawer. But, see, the fighting just ends with naked “wrestling” on the bed so what’s bad here?
    6- I do this, too… so…
    7- I feel the exact same way and I get so f-ing irritated when I’m trying to have a serious conversation with John and he keeps peeking at his phone or the tv… I know he’s not listening to me.
    8- Worrying? Shows how much you care. I could probably go be the target at knife throwing practice and no one would be concerned for my safety.
    9- See #8.
    10- If needed, I’m sure I could wake you up. (I swear, are you just setting me up with some of these?? 😛 )
    11- Me, too.
    12- God, if you’re even going to notice when I walk in, you can remove my shoes or anything else you want.
    13- I have gotten good at saving (especially since the layoff/unemployment)… I will help you… or not let you leave the bed long enough to spend anything. 😛
    14- I wish someone would defend me! How is this a bad thing?
    15- I’ve got a drawer full…

    Still waiting for the terrible flaws… 😛

    1. Awww, we really do make a good fit. No woman ever offered ear plugs. That alone won me over. The spooning is my way of feeling I am protecting you in your sleep. If I feel you stirring because of a nightmare, I will calm you with kisses on your back/neck. Seriously, you really warmed me with this. I can’t tell you how many fights start in the middle of the night. I flirt but I NEVER EVER cheated. No reason for that. If you can give me your feet, mucho sex, an occasional pantyhose or stockings. the teddies, and respect the shoe removal and lipstick thing, I WON’T NEED ANOTHER WOMAN. It’s really that simple. From what you say, I would NEVER need another woman. Regarding the talking to myself, I have concluded I should be with another writer who will understand this. Allie & others never understood this. We can talk about Facebook, the blog, weather, and other nonsense at any time. Serious conversations are with undivided attention by both. Yeah, I worry. Feel free to fly butterfly, but occasionally let me know you are okay. You made me laugh. Because of my snoring, my mates have always had the attitdue they need to fall asleep first. And that is impossible. I fall alseep in less than 30 seconds EVERYDAY. I will wake up two hours later, but I fall asleep fast. Regarding the saving, you can do the budgeting. I am not all macho man I don’t need to run everything. I want a relationship with an equal partner. Defend you would be my honor. Terrible flaw?? I fogot to say the sense of humor. I am TOO playful. I know when to be serious, but I will joke in stressful moments. My defense mechanism. My EX hated that about me. One other thing, which I think you already understand. I’m watching a football game, you walk in and place your feet in my lap, while my hands are on your feet, you take the control and put on whatever you want to watch, you won’t hear a word of complaint from me. And if you wear a little lingerie, I will STOP WHATEVER I am doing. Chimp has his priorites. This is where Devil Girl understood me so well. So, the day you need attention it isn’t that hard to get it. So, if it don’t work out for you or me, we need to set up a dinner date (please don’t forget the lipstick). LOL Sorry, for my long response.

      1. First of all, I hope you realize that I do not have a problem with long. Posts. (Adding posts somehow didn’t make that cleaner.) And dude, just email me if it turns into a short novel. You know I like your stuff (ahem) no matter how long (ahem). Happens to me, too… long posts… as I’m sure you’ve seen. I just assume they’re so brilliant no one minds. (HA)

        Honestly, it has been so long since there has been any spooning in my life, I don’t think I care if you sound like a jackhammer. (Or act like one… omg, sorry. that was really really bad.) Um, kisses on my back or neck would NOT be calming. But would not be rejected either. Sleep deprivation would be a likely “problem.” I can’t imagine you’d be looking elsewhere for anything… especially the foot stuff… and the sex… and the lips… yeah. all set. Maybe it sounds a little pathetic, but I admit, I like the thought of someone worrying about me. Maybe I like it too much. And if I don’t want you to fall asleep so fast.. well, challenge accepted!

        There is definitely no such thing as TOO playful. Are you kidding? Have we met? I always make jokes when I’m stressed or upset. That is exactly my defense mechanism. And sometimes, I find something funny at inappropriate times. (Song lyric – “my lover’s got humour/she’s the giggle at a funeral/knows everybody’s disapproval/I should’ve worshipped her sooner”) And I’m pretty sure I’d bring you to the macy’s dressing room to be sure you were happy with my… selections. And if you know anything about my ‘real life’ you know I’m starving for attention…

        I hope you mean an at-home dinner date because I seriously doubt we would last 5 minutes in a restaurant. (Don’t worry, that doesn’t mean I wouldn’t dress up and wear lipstick… I just might not wear them for as long… 😛 ) Sorry for the long response. 😛 I’m going to need a cold shower. And to write a story about a dinner date…

    1. I know. One of my downfalls. Thanks for being honest. Yesterday morning, Allie said I sounded like a motorcycle. This morning she said I sounded like a monster. She was SO PISSED both morning. She is a super light sleeper. And basically, at bed time she becomes my enemy. I will have to seek attention for this. Can’t continue to live with this porblem. Thank you so much. Appreciate your honesty.

          1. No, not at all. We are both in better moods because we can get enough sleep. We’ve been married for 15 years, and for at least the last 12 have slept apart. I have 6 brothers and sisters, and they also have separate bedrooms from their spouse, and all are happily married.

Do what you have to do first , spoon a bit (you’ll fall asleep) , and your dear wife flees to her own bedroom to have a good night sleep 😀 then you’ll both be happy and can “spoon” again in the morning 😉 My grandparents had separate bedrooms , my parents separate beds , and I’ve had separate bedrooms for years (his snoring , my reading through the night , his waking up at dawn – when I’m trying to fall asleep 😉 , very different temperature requirements , me window open , he closed and so on ) . everyone is happier when they sleep well 😀

  33. My ex snored. Loudly. It was not fun. And being that I hate expectations being placed on me by someone else in regards to how I look or what I wear, the lipstick and earring thing would probably get to me eventually, even though I usually wear both on my own. Good to know that no one is perfect although the fact that you felt the need to list your flaws is endearing. 😉

    I’m not a jealous person at all so I’d probably get a kick out of the flirting, mostly because I’m a flirt myself. I would find it flattering when other people would flirt with my ex. Made me feel like “you can look, but that’s mine.” 😊

    1. Oh my God you are a sweetheart. My wife is a bigger flirt than I am. But at the ned of the dinner party she goes home to bed with me. You so understand. I wrote this post because I am always writing the things I would do, so ladies are getting all these wonderful romantic impression, but I have my quirks and flaws. So, I guess I wanted to remind everyone you have to take the good with the bad. Thanks so much for taking the time to read. I do think you are a sweetheart.

  34. When I read this I really laughed out loud. You and me – never getting together. Deal with it. 🙂 Can’t stand my husband spooning and snoring in my ear… Not usually jealous and my husband flirts but there is a line. Can’t stand my feet being massaged.
    Aw well, it was a nice relationship while it lasted… Just kidding. Hugs and kisses.

  37. I’m sorry but the image of you painting my toe nails was too much. Such a good laugh…actually, I was just thinking the other day about how I’m going to have to start going out to get my toe nails taken care of because I’m getting to old to handle the contortion of doing my own. Not a romantic thought.:0) Our relationship would be that of a dear son, another one, and just a mom. I too have suffered loss and worry about losing those I love. At my age is the process of letting go so, who knows? maybe we can teach each other how to let go of what is never ours and we can’t control. Everything in this world is a gift, perishable, to be enjoyed in the moment. I don’t know you well but you’ve already given me some very enjoyable moments. God bless you and your feisty butterflies!

    1. LOL Love your comment. Letting go is so hard. I end one of my novels with the words “Funny how death can teach us so much about life.” Remember me when you do your nails. LOL Funny, but with all my crazy posts, I believe you are one of the few people who actually know I am a religious man. God holds an important place in my life. Wishing you all the best. God bless you and yours.

          1. Yes, it is. “Pure religion and undefiled is to visit widows and orphans in their affliction and to keep one’s self unspotted by the world.” If I bear a religious branding let it be this religion and not the perversion of it. You are a very non-offensive guy. Me, I think I’m a firebrand, I try not to be but I’m a truth-teller. I don’t like politics but everything is so politicized these days that speaking out on the reality of our situation is automatically viewed as politics. A deceptive mess. We have to fix our eyes beyond it and pay close attention to where we set our feet.

      1. Awweee, that’s sweet you feel bad about it. In my case, I suffered with insomnia for years, so any noise bothers me. Usually he or I sleep on a spare matress in one of the kids’ rooms or we put our youngest on our room and one of us sleeps in her bed. Hahahaha. Oh well, it’s not always.
        Thanks for reading mine too. I will be reading more. 😀
