This is in response to the the article on the front page about the man who offered "his girl" a promise ring and then deleted all of the male contacts from her cell phone. If indeed the response from Mr. Average Guy represents the "norm", then it is a perfect testament to the strength of the patriarchal hold that continues in this culture. Women are not "property" to be "staked out". I don't care how many rings are involved. This attitude is insulting and disrespectful. This man's actions were jealous, manipulative, and controlling, and if the miserable sonofabitch had done it to me, I'd have dumped his *** quicker than you could say "misogynist". We need to stop enabling this kind of thing. Men who think of women as their "property" probably are considered "normal" in this culture, because I can tell you, this attitude is very common. But "common" and "normal" don't mean the same thing as "right". And I think that the gal who asked the question knows this; otherwise she wouldn't have asked the question. Listen to your instincts--they're much smarter than your head--and tell this loser to shove it, sister. There are much better fish in the sea, even if they're rare.

Just read the article on dating a sociopath...... yep, that was him. He has no remorse or guilt for everything he has done. And he will continue to get away with it. Now I have to learn to heal and move on. Easier said than done. Especially when I still cry at the drop of a hat!

so i dated this guy about a year ago for like 4 months. now we are back together and we are kinda starting where we left off. even though he is a great guy he is starting to go a little too far too fast(i'm still a virgin). he works a lot and although he does spend all the time he can with me we usually don't end up talking much...if u know what i mean. just the other day i was talking to his friend and he said that he told him that he wasn't the romantic type and that he just wanted a girlfriend to just hang out with.i just want to know does he just want to get in my pants or does he really want to give this a shot and really try and make this work.

What do you do when the guy you have been dating for a year and fell in love with turns out to be into shemales. Never was honest about his sexuality.
