Quote From: ritehere Your husband is probably being very wise. Some young men, when they find somebody that is physically capable of besting them, will find some other stronger idiot and put him up to fight the man that beat them. It can be a contest that doesn't end until the guy is beaten, sometimes badly.
Your husband may have taken the measure of this young man and decided that staying out of it is the better part of valor.
You need to find something else to focus on, like how to discourage this young man from coming around you two.
I know what you are saying. My problem is that I like talking to him and my best friend until he starts acting all macho. I will just have to cutt him off.
This guy really was not my problem. He is aggravating though. I just want to know what is up with all the big ego macho guys. Its like they are everywhere. Can they just talk to people without thinking they are so much better or for heaven sake stop being so competitive?
