I confess

I keep multiple guys on the back burner just in case. I’ve been seeing someone. He is great but I have this habit of keeping back up guys friends around in case I need them. Recently one of my guy friends called me out. He says I string guys along and make them think they have a shot. He also says I’m not honest about my stAtus or intentions. I think he is right and I feel like shit about it. But it’s always worked out for me. I guess I never considered how it may feel for them :(

I had the same mentality for too long

But eventually I figured out the pain was more than the gain and I realized it was time to find the right partner to go the distance with. My life improved immensely and I've been with my sweetie now for 25 years. Sure, we are humans and sometimes we have a bit of friction that we so talk through and get over, BUT we've never had one argument.

You don’t pay for weed people just give to you?

... it's pretty common for how women behave. It's not terribly rare. What's terribly rare is you acknowledging it or having a male friend who calls you out on it. In general men and women are not friends unless the man is interested in Sleeping with the woman. There are exceptions to this but I don't tend to be friends with women I wouldn't also want to have sex with. I do like being friends with women too but ultimately if they were to say well how about trying it on I'd say well what took you so long. That's how most men are whether they realize it or not.

Am I the only one who will say it

I'm calling Bullshit on this "Confession". It's obviously written by one of the bitter guys who frequent this section and use it to cry "misandry" and other shit. Though one wonders where the comment about weed comes from, probably another bitter guy who's imagining some woman from his past.
But the simple fact is that the kind of woman who would do that wouldn't write a confession about it.
Nope, this is definitely written by a guy.

I actually like that you used the “backburner” analogy. Hopefully none of them boil over… aka plot revenge. If you think strong men are dangerous… weak men… Well, you’ll see. Enjoy.

So, … dating in Vancouver?! This isn't abnormal in this city, men, and women string one another along. The days of those wholesome and earthy guys and gals next door is well over. It's looking out for #1, these days. People are looking for a leg up, or an accessory in a "partner", today. Vancouver is a superficial city.

Most women admit to doing this- the key word is "admit"
