I find it absurd that abnormal reactions to normal doses of jealousy are a more accepted thing with society, especially with women. A man will be accused of being controlling, for exhibiting harmless traits of jealousy while sometimes, is just mere concern. Jealousy in moderation, I find acceptable. No need for another conference in Beijing.
When my man suggests to me, not to be in the company of certain people, I don't have to abandon them, true, but I find that this would stem from the concern he has for me, not control he wants to establish over me. Sadly, most would consider him controlling and try to crucify him for it.
There is no longer acceptance in 'trying' to suggest anything these days, which means, there is less compromise achieved, overall. In turn, relationships deteriorate to something that lacks symbiosis. This individual freedom we have set for ourselves is being misconceived or used selfishly. Consequently, more people are prone to finding fault with their partners, and none with themselves.
The 'let's bash America' thread is next door. I am, however, wondering if you have been to America, to be able to make a valid conclusion on population and mannerism.
Do I need to repeat what everyone else has already told you before? Ok. I will use your style; see below!
NO ONE SAYS YOU SHOULD NOT GIVE YOUR OPINIONS, JUST DON'T COME ON HERE ACCUSING EVERYONE OF HAVING ULTERIOR MOTIVES. YOU DON'T KNOW EVERYONE, AND IT MAKES YOU SOUND CRAZY.
There! Talk about your intentions, what you think, but don't make accusations without grounds.
If I refused to consider his feelings, just because I am not supposed to be 'controlled' then I would be using that as an excuse to be selfish.
Morgan, I don't know your reasons for agreeing or refusing to do it, if you have already made up your mind, that is. I, however, think it is great of you to consider it, as I assume you are, by asking for other people's views.
Older men are welcome to hit on me, anytime. I am aware of the fact that most older/experienced women will not take their crap, and they hope I am naive enough to buy it. Anything to cater to their needs. I'm all for causes, any kind.
You know, the only thing that makes me totally quiet with a man I am interested in, is a lie. I don't urgue, I don't fight it, I simply nod! The next day, I wake with no expectations and no headache. The longer I am single, the easier I realise I don't need anything that I don't.
If a man wants five women and a goat, he may go ahead. It's their miserable life!
