I'm travelling in a party of 10 so not sure if I can break loose. We're only in Laughlin Friday and Sat, I know we're doing Lake Havasu on Thursday and maybe Bullhead too. I'll try and make the friday venue you mentioned, but I'm not sure of my schedule yet.

Boys need good, decent women "role models" and Girls need good, decent male "role models" in their lives. (And, that doesn't mean something that they learn from watching TV all the time!)
mshenderson ...
I totally agree with you too!

Most of us tend to stay with what's "familiar" to us ... whether it is good or bad. I always say that things are bad ... but, they could be "worse". That is a good saying only if it's pouring down rain or sumthin' ... it doesn't necessarily work with people and their personality defects!

You are so right about this too!

Dear friend, Bad news. We have patterrns and we tend to follow them. Subconsciously we always feel attracted for the same type of people or relationships and that is very hard to change...
Good news, there are red flags and we can learn to identify them, so next time, you will not let yourself get hurt or even better you will find the right person for you. Don't worry, there is plenty of fish in the water...

Behind every GOOD man, there stands a lifetime of Good women; Moms, Grandmothers Aunties, Sisters, Female role models, such as Teachers and your best friend's Mom. The teacher thing is a bit shadey nowadays, though.

Lets be careful about generalizations...every man is different even though you've run across many that were wrong for you. If you think derogatory thoughts about every man, you'll never find the right one for you. So it comes down to where are you looking? Where would your guy go to improve himself, be a better person, learn to run his own business. Well, he'd probably be a person who goes to church, is furthering his mind, does honest work, raising kids by himself which is why he would need a good woman etc. Unlikely to find such a guy in bars etc. Next time you meet a guy, ask him what he is studying or learning in the hope of being a better person. What are his pet projects, what drives him about his work...then have a reciprocal story about yourself.

I have never expected a MAN to be anything other than a MAN. I have worked with them and all that nicey nicey stuff is just not their usual environment and way they are.
Like anyone, everyone can be nice for a short time when you first meet and make the first impression. but it is only as you go on and your find compliments are skin deep and the telling thing is how he acts when things go wrong. Does he use intelligence and consideration for those involved. or does he start being aggressive and blaming and finding fault.
I don't hold much store by outside observances. I look for the man who is a little more deeper and thoughtful and more grounded. Nice behaviours can be taught to anyone But you need to know the guy is SOLID.
Also stop expecting and start saying. I actually say what I will have and will not have happening. I don't assume we sing from the same song sheet at the beginning.
Thos books about Why Men Love Bitches etc etc are right. You need to stick down your own lines and decide how you will be treated.
But Hossy is right. Men wil say and act how they thing will get them the best result. Men are not made of sugar and spice and all things nice like us girls (OK guys. Nothing needs to be said) they are frogs and snails and puppydogs tails. Made to torture small animals, kill bambi work on bike engines and torment and tease small girls.

Ya know...There are quite a few great, sweet, wonderful men out there. You just have to look for them, don't settle for the first. Learn to be alone, enjoy being alone, stop searching so much, and he will be there. He probably already is...as your best friend or something like that. I agree there are a lot of assholes out there, but if you want a good guy who has a big gentle heart, just sit back, and wait, and watch....he's there. Learn to know these guys before you let your heart go, that helps. Make a list of what you will and won't deal with, stick to it, and don't ever ever settle
