Marriage, just don't

Quote from TGregg:

And secondly, any woman that thinks her man is incapable of leaving loses every shred of respect she ever had for him.

Truer words were never spoken.
But don't forget the biggie called "Child Support"....that keeps many men from leaving bad situations.

Thats a shame, but true. The financial trap gets them.

To the poster who said his woman takes him for granted. If you find youself in that situation, just "introduce doubt". Keeps them off-balanced, on thier toes, dont come home till midnight after work, saturday leave all day and dont say where. "introduce doubt and randomness to the mix, the whole tone of the situation changes in your favor.

If you dont have the balls to do that, thats really at the core of the issue, contact Dr.Phil....

good luck.

I think a woman should feel slightly afraid that her man will leave her. It balances out the biological reality that the woman holds more cards than the man.

I don't know if I am alone in this one. But i thought I better say it.

If you really care about a woman and they treat you and other people like shit do you feel ashamed of loving them.

I don't think you can help those feelings. So you are trapped, you can't stop feeling the way you do and ending the relationship is too painful. But their behaviour is so bad that you are disgusted in the way you feel.

Love is weird too. You can feel love for some random person and you can't stop it. You could get the most terrible person ever and there is nothing you can do. You could be completely out of their league and they could be as ugly and horrible as hell. But you can't stop the way you feel.

You are trapped in the worse possible situation and there is nothing you can do about it. It isn't even the financial or social consequences (that seem to be the only thing that women worry about) it is simply the emotion you feel for them. You can do nothing about it.

The worst prison ever.

Captain Morgan, elsewhere in another thread I told you you were too soft, a huge softie. Remember a year ago when you posted some love-sick stuff about that nice looking French TV news anchor? I noo then that you were the type of man who would be taking huge emotional blows (mostly covert manipulation) from women in your life.

Wake up, boss. You deserve better, much much better.

There are some very very very basic rules of engagement - all will ensure that you are not at the receiving end of THEIR game, rather you are playing YOUR game.

Don't believe that its all a GAME?

Hehehehehe, dream on.

That's why the reach and withdraw mechanism works so well

Could not be anymore true than this. Grow balls, had to learn the hard way.

Aha, the push and pull mechanism

Where did you hear about this technique ?

"Philip Zimbardo talks about an ongoing concern, the opting out of boys from academically and socially â boys are more likely to drop out of school, girls outperform boys at all academic levels, boys are 5 times more likely to be diagnosed with ADD. The difference also leads to many man-boys who can't interact with women except on the most superficial and cartoonish level."

it depends on your definition of whore. perhaps u are one of these people who believes that if a woman has a marriage certificate it automatically excludes her from the category of whore.
