LOL - did you read my article? I'm happily married to a good man and I treat him as well as he treats me.

When I look at what my daughter went through and so many of my students - this boils down to human relationships and, let's just give the example of a decent guy who is mistreated by a whacky, messed-up girl. Learn from it. Go for someone who has the qualities other than looks that you want. Common interests, shared hobbies - take things slow, act decent, you will find someone who is right for you. I follow up with specific "Red Flags" tomorrow. All are common sense. And quit slagging on FDS women. They are giving women who have endured the worst at least some idea of how to take care of themselves. Their guidance consists of women being celibate if they can't find a good, responsible partner. I fail to see how that is "hate," buddy. Staying single instead of being beaten or abused. Yeah, there's some "hate."
