I'm really not like this in real life. I have an alter ego who's only purpose is to sign onto LS and keep people in check. In real life I'm actually a desolate shell of a man who watches everything from afar and wishes....one day....maybe.....me.....too.......

 

:cool:

 

hmmm, why?

Isn't it obvious? I can only project my alter-ego from the safety and security of a computer screen. Without the computer, my true self may shine through and the hypocrisy of my words will be exposed for all to see.

 

On a side note, we are totally hijacking this thread.

You said a mouthful. I, as well, want and NEED a man who can "handle me".

 

Women with strong personalities need strong men. Strong CAN encompass niceness and assertiveness(knowing how to handle me).

 

Why would I need to handle a woman? Why can't a woman control herself and keep herself in check? I don't want to be made to feel like I am a father with a rebellious daughter who yearns to be put in her place which is what every relationship before my current seemed to turn into. I have no problem putting my foot down but if I have to to often then I figure it is better off being single.

I see where you're coming from, but I don't think we're suggesting that the female would be a spoiled brat, rebellious, etc. Personally, I'm referring to normal circumstances. Under those circumstances men and women step out of line sometimes by talking too much, too loudly, being late, not keeping their word, forgetting important things, etc.

 

I too agree that putting a grown *ss man in his place OFTEN is just dumb. But if you do it a few times and nothing changes then you bounce.

 

However, this isn't only about putting a female in her place. It's also about ,in conjunction with, him being able to handle other situations and people as the time presents itself. I don't know anyone who actually LIKES having to address undesirable behavior by a S.O., but this is life. People are going to do some things we do not like. It's up to us to tell people what is and is not acceptable to us. That way you're not holding your emotions in and using it as an excuse to do dumb stuff as someone else mentioned.

 

People treat us the way we allow them to. If the behavior is negative and they never change then one should BOUNCE...

I understand that nobody is perfect and sometimes a person needs to assert themselves but if I hear a woman saying she is too much for men to handle I would look at that as a major red flag. It sounds to me like she is never ending drama and a man needs to be strong enough to deal with that. Life is full of enough drama without dealing with it from a woman.

It's because you are attracted to screwed up women.:bunny:

or someone who is enough confident in themselves to make such a bold statement.
