A famous Marilyn Monroe quote

Replace "wise" with "HPD" :lol:

"A wise girl kisses but doesn't love, listens but doesn't believe, and leaves before she is left."
— Marilyn Monroe


Just found this amusing. And hello everyone. Glad to have found this forum and look forward to reading and participating.

Sounds like a cold, sad, lonely girl to me. She's really saying "a wise girl is physically intimate but emotionally separate, keeps her walls up, and takes as much as she can before discarding the source".

Thanks for the quote. It speaks volumes, really.

Wow. Couldn't agree more with that newer version quote there, TatteredKnight. Kudos.

And in the end she killed herself after how many men in her life? It just goes to show who got it right. I keep fighting through this bitch of a life, Marilyn, so where are you? See you at the finish line.

Chin up, man. You've made it through, you're out of contact with her, you're strong and you can come back better than ever. There's someone out there waiting to treat you as well as you deserve, and you're better off even now than you ever were with your Ms. Monroe lookalike! Here, speaking of finish lines, maybe this'll cheer you up:

Dave, John and Sam were involved in a horrific car accident in which all three died. As they stood at the gates of heaven, Saint Peter came up to them and said,

'You will all be given a method of transportation for your eternal use around heaven. You will be judged on your past deeds and will have your transport chosen accordingly'

Saint Peter looked at Dave.
'You, Dave, were a bad man. You cheated on your wife four times. For this you will drive around heaven in an old, beat-up Skoda.'

Next Saint Peter looked at John.
'You were not so evil, but you still cheated on your wife two times. For this you will forever travel through heaven in a Lada station wagon.'

Saint Peter finally looked at Sam.
'You, Sam, have set a fine example. You did not have sex before marriage and you never cheated on your wife. For this, you will forever travel through heaven in a Ferrari.'

A short time later, John and Dave pulled their cars next to Sam's Ferrari and there he is, sitting on the bonnet, head in hands, crying.

'What's wrong Sam?' they asked. 'You got the Ferrari. You're set forever. Why so down?'

Sam looked up ever so slowly, opened his mouth and cried,
'I just saw my wife go by on a skateboard.'

Hmm... on second thoughts I think maybe that's cutting a little close to the bone. :/ But look at the bright side... awesome, a Ferrari! :D

P.S. Glad you liked the rephrase of the quote, cure_e_us! :)
