I don't think I'll ever have sympathy for women again.

    I used to...really, I did. When I heard a woman complaining about a man, or men in general, I would think: Yeah, there are some dumbasses out there. There's a good chance she has hooked up with one. So I would have sympathy for their plight, really.

    Never again.

    Some of you may be aware of the way my month has gone with my now ex gf. I was as clear and honest as I could be. What I've been put through the last few weeks is nothing short of torture. Its like she's turned into something completely different from what I knew for two and a half years. All the confusion, lies and general pain have come from her...and its left me completely in the dark.

    I have a hard time believing that the majority of us guys - particularly if we are nice guys in general - were capable of causing this sort of punishment.

    And even beyond that, my current situation not even in consideration....those times that I have seen the way some guys can be a$$es to women...I also see the women take it, and continue to go back. That's something I have never understood, ever. And yet it happens time and time again.

    Have any of you guys ever noticed this?

    So...no more sympathy. I don't have any left.

    It's not women, it's people. There is an equal amount of idiocy in both genders. Neither of us has a stranglehold on being good.

    If you end up with a jerk of either gender, move on. There are plenty more. Just because you had problems shouldn't be an indictment of all women.

    I noticed this too.

    Women are complete opposites of men.We are not meant to get along.If people say they are happily married,they are lieing.(i think im the exception)

    I cant see how men are happy in a relationship giving money to their women(thats a form of prostitution)

    I cant see why men like having kids either(just means you have to work even harder and if you get fired,your kids are left in the gutter)

    Now,their are about a % 4 of women who actaully make enough to support them selves and dont need money from a man.Thats the women I advise evry man to get.(i found one,she didnt make as much when we first met,but i could tell she was a hard worker and would get promoted)

    Now,I can be lazy and she wont bug me.(its perfect)

    I have dated about 70 girls in different age brackets.I can tell you that age doesnt matter at all(the theory that women get smarter with age is bs)

    What you should look for is a girl who thinks like a man.Who doesnt care about money or if your on the net all the time or put more time into rockets than her(i do,she used to get made at me watching all the games,now shes used to it)


    I also found that even though women can do without sex,and dont need sex as much as the media or men think,they still do want it if your young.(so if i turn down my girl for any reason(such as being on the net) she gets pissed)

    So i guess,in conclusion,if your a good looking guy,you have a chance to snag a rich girl,if your ugly,you better have a job and support your girl.

    I actually gave up on girls when I was bout 19 and dated 70,but out of literally no where I met the perfect one.I think its all in gods will.I noticed the more i tried,the more i failed,once i gave up,it happened.

    Girls do like muscles and hair and a good sex life.I have none now(but she still remembers the good times)so I guess shes happy.

    I advise to not introduce p*rn whatso ever.I heard that that might spark up interest in your mate(while true,it backfires in the longterm).I have a treasure trunk under lock and key to hide it.

    But yea,if your ugly and poor ,then no desent women will like you.

    I wouldnt say women are mean,because guys know we are perfectionist also and perfer a rich and beautiful wife also.

    I am very superficial,and thats the cold hard truth about life.I cant understand how men can have a ugly wife and tell them theyre pretty.I just think they are lieing and the women KNOW your lieing.WOmen are smarter than we think.They can tell if you have the hots for someone on tv more than them.

    I also found that women that want breast implants or alot of makeup,should be avioded.

    1.they have low selfesteem and take it out on you

    2.they are never happy with their looks and will drive you crazy

    3.they will expect you to be perfect to

    But on the other side,women that stay with abusive men are for a couple of reasons.

    1.they are ugly and they know they cant find another man

    2.they are losers with no money so they are finacially dependant on the man

    I personally test my woman.I asked her if i cheated would she stay with me and she said "no".Thats good,that means she has self respect

    I asked her if i gave her money for boobs would she get them and she said no,thats good to.

    I asked her if i snapped,and slapped her,would she stay,and she said no.

    I noticed if the women lets the man do stupid things,then the girl will start doing them,then it becomes a downward spiral.

    shouldgetodom: Actually, I have the perfect solution for all your women troubles. You want a woman who makes money like a man, thinks like a man, watches sports like a man, will be lazy like a man and will have high self esteem like a man?

    First, let me simply observe that I'm not sure those qualities are all that attractive in ANYONE let alone a woman, but back to the solution.

    If you struggle with finding these things in women...there are always men out there who would be happy to provide that for you. Of course, and outlaw you can back me up on this one, they may not want you either, but that's just conjecture.

    :)

    Your right Jeff.If I was gay relationships would be ALOT easier.

    But unfortunately Im not.SO if I had to chose between a ugly girl and being alone,Id chose alone.

    It doesnt really matter to me,if you look at the thread of "whats important to you" I ranked my wife #4.

    Shes not lazy btw I am,and I still cant figure out why shes with me,I ask her and she tells me its because when we were young and lazy and immature,she fell in love,but she assumed Id grow up,Which I havent.Shes mad I havent grown up,But just imagine your pet dog or cat Jeff,you have unconditional love for that pet no matter what.Im basically her pet dog.

    But I dont get bossed around by her.

    shouldgetodom: I won't even go into most of your post, but you would turn down an opportunity for real live sex to go play on the Internet?!?

    Also, women who assume a guy will change later or will "grow up" are almost always disappointed. Our safest bet is to go with one who's already mature, even if he has to be a little bit older.

    Weird: what's all this 'women are like this, men are like that' bullsh*t? Are there a lot of John Gray readers here or something?

    We're just people. Some people suck. Some people don't. Men and women are brought up differently because our society is gender-stratified. But that doesn't mean women are essentially like this huge freaky mystery you all need to get together and *explain* to each other...

    Bizarre.

    That's pretty funny actually Isabel. Women might assume that men are supposed to want sex "all" the time, but I think men have the choice to be "not in the mood" as well? Granted, if my wife is persistent, she doesn't usually have to sell it that hard. =)

    I suspect I've given up the opportunity for potential sex many times by being at the computer, but there's also something in "absence makes the heart grow fonder". I find my batting average in having advances accepted grows higher with limited at bats. Personally, I don't like being shot down too much, so I kind of pick my spots.

    Shouldgetodom: your post on relationships raised my eyebrows a bunch of times, but whatever works for you mate. I like how you didn't freak out on Jeff's not so subtle joke/maturity/IQ test.

    I think my point was missed. I know people are different....the thing was, I would tend to side with women when I heard of problems. I'd generally accept that some dude probably did something stupid.

    Not anymore. I don't think one gender is all bad...what I'm saying is, this girl seemed like one of those genuinely good people. Everything that I was looking for...and yet she's now become capable of things I never would have guessed. The last thing I expected was for her to be able to punish me like this.

    So I won't take anything for granted anymore. And if I hear something like that again, my sympathy will no longer side with the woman. I understand now that the story can go much deeper than that.

    Some chics view "niceness" as a form of weakness, and as you put it, "a jack@$$" as some sort of strenght.

    This thread is so incredibly depressing! Between some people on here and the guys in my office, I can't believe how many people don't care about their wives more. It really saddens me. Maybe I'm just young and idealistic, but I want more than that when I grow up and get married!

    To Rokkit-

    Giving your sympathy should not have anything to do with gender. It should depend on the situation. Both sexes can be equally mean and vindictive.

    In my experience, women become vindictive when they feel they have been treated poorly. I'm not implying you were wrong to your ex or being a jacka$$, but perhaps she feels like you are or she has had bad break ups in the past. She's probably just hurt and wants you to hurt too though. I'm sorry you're in this situation.

    Not all women are vindictive though. Lynus and I have been completely civil to each other since he broke up with me. I understand how he feels and I know I can't do anything about it. I'm hurt, but I think he is too. The last thing I want to do though is cause more pain. I guess the situation and the peole determine how the break up will go.

    Please don't give up all hope in women. We're not all bad!

    Rokkit, don't take this the wrong way, but you are going about this totally wrong. You can't assume everyone is like that.

    First off, you have the right to feel the way you do. I....we have all had similar experiences and some worse than others(if you only knew my friend). There will always be b****es out there, which brings me to my next point....

    Don't let her bring you down and make you into something you know you are not. You seem like a good, caring guy. Not all people are like her. You aren't like her, so don't become like her. Don't let a sour person like her spoil your future experiences with others or ruin what you are. Be true to yourself.

    Thanks, RP.

    Its not that she's become some cold, ruthless b*tch. I guess I gave that impression. More that she doesn't seem to understand some basic things. And after making such a big deal out of our relationship it suddenly doesn't seem to matter much anymore. I've been honest and as clear as I can be. All she's done is confuse the hell out of me. Just hard to believe the good person that she was when we were together can dish out that kind of punishment, unintentional or not.

    No vindictiveness, or ill feelings....just that she tried very hard to build up a bond in the relationship. After you hear stuff long enough, you finally began to believe it. I did. And now it seems like she has no problem getting rid of all of it. Stupid of me to actually let myself believe it, I guess.

    Hey Rokkit,
    I'm sorry you're hurting. The good news is the hurting will stop eventually. When it does, I hope you'll come around to believing in people again.
