This is a place to share greentexts and witness the confounding life of Anon. If you're new to the Greentext community, think of it as a sort of zoo with Anon as the main attraction.

Be warned:

If you find yourself getting angry (or god forbid, agreeing) with something Anon has said, you might be doing it wrong.

Lmfao. “Very small chance” my fucking ass. This is incredibly common.

Whole-heartedly agree. Sometimes this site makes me feel like I'm dealing with a bunch of fat, young virgins. Yes, you've been screened.

My wife is mad jealous, of every woman. (Her only fault, I can deal.) Wants me to wear my ring more often.

"You know that'll only get me more attraction?"

It's funny getting middle aged and how the calculus has really changed for me. I get compliments from random women all the time due to facial hair, being bald, and dropping weight. My wife laughs her ass off but does get a tiny bit jealous. That grey in the beard does things.

Feels good, man.

Yup. It's hard for me to tell at work whether the attention I'm getting is because I'm in a leadership position (people sucking up for promotions and whatnot) or because I'm one of the few married people and thus "safe." Regardless, I set appropriate boundaries and it works out.
