This is a question What's the hardest you've tried to get dumped?

Groovypoodle writes, "My mate once told his girlfriend that he didn't think it was working only for her to laugh and tell him he was hilarious. Saying she was 'too weird' and 'slightly violent' and that he didn't like her was equally hilarious. Ripping off her wing mirror, throwing it through the windscreen
and storming off in a huff merely generated an apology from her a week later..."

Just how hard have you had to work to get someone to take the hint and stay dumped?

What women want...
I wouldn't claim to have a huge amount of experience with many different women, despite my advanced years, but I have enough to know what women want.

And it's pretty simple: MORE.

Oh yes.

More shoes.
More weekends away.
More attention.
More orgasms.
More space.
More jobs done around the house.
More clothes.
More makeup.

(Getting bored yet?)

More time together.
More time apart.
More in the way of upward social mobility.
More fabulous car.
More horses (my ex-wife, anyway).
More fucking handbags.
More emotional support.
More compliments (on appearance, achievements, sexual prowess etc. because it wouldn't hurt)
More psychic ability to judge her mood.
More chocolate.
More flowers.
More random acts of love / attention.

What this has to do with the QOTW

Tell her she can't have any more. And hey presto, suddenly it's time for her to move on / find herself / go it alone / whatever.

Oh, nearly forgot... they always want more length and more girth as well.

Poor you...
The only thing I ever want more of is time with my boyfriend. I do know when to let go though, I don't mind when he goes on holiday without me and I certainly don't mind if I'm not invited.

Mind you I am a mathematician who loves ale living with 4 blokes and we all get along swimmingly. Perhaps I'm just a bloke minded girl.

More sex is always good though.

Recurve is better close range, and is more agile,

Fuck bows.
You don't get the delicious salty splash of blood in your mouth from shooting an arrow into someone.

Not the same at pinning someone to a tree with a hunting knife rammed precicely through their neck, to miss the major blood vessels.

You don't get to see the expression on their face as you break their ribs, one by one with the handle of the cleaver, in short, punching jabs.

Fuck shooting an arrow into someone.

You can't feel the shearing of their gristle as you hack through their forearm, staring deeply into their wide, dilated eyes.

You can't feel the shocks that jolt through your elbow as the final piece of their neck vertebrae splits in half, leaving you free to hold your bloody trophy high in the air, screaming at the top of your lungs.

I have no idea why I wrote that...

However, with a bow, you do get to...
Feel that dull pang as the arrow is loosed.

Feel the rush of air as it rushes away from you.

Look upon the arrow as it makes impact, slowly spinning, then thudding into the body as it rebounds back and lands on the grund.

Watch your victim gargle blood and grip at the arrow going through their neck.

See the pain in their eyes as they die a slower, more agonising death.

GET TO USE A FUCKING BOW! Now come on, how cool is that?

I really want a cannon, but I think it'd be hard to get a fully working one.

I used to have a really good catapult. You strapped the rubber twangy bit to yr feet and put a water bomb in the pouch, lay back and fired it about 50 ft or more. Great fun.
