I learned that the easiest way to get along with the women in my life is to shutup and do as I'm told. To a point, anyway. Walt Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

PLFXpert 0 #56 January 13, 2006 I love a well-trained man Thankfully, some woman before me did all the leg work and left me with my perfect soldier. I prefer them used--wouldn't want to be the bitch responsible for all the "changes" It's like a secret service those girls provide. Like, "Here you go, hunny, he's all yours. I f'd him up pretty good. He'll think you're an angel, dear." Edited to clarify: I don't care much for that particular type of secret service agent--male or female-version.Paint me in a corner, but my color comes back.

RhondaLea 4 #60 January 13, 2006 QuoteI think I see more pissed-off women than men in this thread Me, because this is something we don't talk about, and when we do talk about it, it's a joke. It's almost as if (some) men and (some) women don't want to have any empathy for the person they love most in the world. Those of us who come up from really screwy families of origin have a serious disadvantage when it comes to picking the right partner, because we look at mean and abusive behavior and our gut says "okay, that's normal." It's not, but it's what we know. I don't care about the petty annoyances of day-to-day life, and I think that getting all wound up about toilet paper, toothpaste and toilet seats is pretty stupid. I think that in the absence of emotional abuse, a little tolerance goes a long way. But what seems to happen is that people get the petty annoyances and the normal differences between men and women confused with what is actually abusive behavior, and then one or the other of us looks really stupid when we complain about the latter, because it's all lumped in there together. Withholding sex is not okay. Attributing a legitimate complaint to "the rag" is not okay. The cold shoulder is not okay. "Psycho" is not okay. Telling a partner what they can and cannot do is not okay. I've got a long list, but it comes down to this: anything that demeans and diminishes the person you are supposed to love is just not okay. I don't see toilet paper fitting in there anywhere. I guess this is supposed to be a funny thread, but it's not very funny to me. I pissed off a man not all that long ago. We were friends (I thought), and then sex got into the mix. "Friends with benefits." At my age and with my attitude, it was just the right thing. Except that with the introduction of sex, "friends" seemed to go out the window, and I became "a girlfriend with no privileges," subject to all the stereotypical disadvantages of a girlfriend with a bad boyfriend. He took the position that my protest against this made me a liar--I said "no strings" and no strings it should be. I said, "If this is how you treat all your friends, I'm surprised you have any." Should I attribute this sort of behavior to all guys, and let a bad experience color my actions from here on in? Or should I take it to mean that I misunderstood the person I was dealing with, and continue to believe that most men are basically decent and worth taking the time with? This thread (and the other one like it) makes me wonder. rlIf you don't know where you're going, you should know where you came from.

stoneycase 0 #67 January 13, 2006 so surprised nobody has mentioned the jealousy button: hang out/talk with large numbers of guy friends, and then insist that they are all "just friends". when every guy knows damn well that 1 out of every 2 male friends a female has is interested in more than how their day went. /been burned once or twice, turned cynic.Does whisky count as beer? - Homer There's no justice like angry mob justice. - Skinner Be careful.

Just because they're interested doesn't mean she's going to act on that interest. But you go ahead and restrict who she hangs out with. See how well that works out for you.

NWFlyer 2 #70 January 13, 2006 QuoteWithholding sex is not okay. For the record, I don't withhold sex. For all my jokes about sexual favors when my b.f. packs for me, sex is not currency in my relationships and I don't use it that way. But I can imagine it *would* piss them off. I don't usually go for intentional antagonization as a communication technique, though. Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
