Isn't it stupid and dangerous how people often..?

100% agree. You've said it perfect. Lots of true colours be showing right now. Men just aren't worth the risk.

You over-generalise, basing your opinion on your own experience.  That's biased & not a representative sample.  It's bad science & bad logic.  You don't even try to offer empiric evidence for your claims.  You seem to think that if you keep singing "Poor, Pitiful Me" long enough & Loud enough, then everyone will flock to your badly skewed view.  If you're even capable of shame, you should be feeling it right now.  

  

I would have agreed with you if this were August 1982, my husban beat me and tried to kill me, he grabbed ou daughter who was 3 1/2, he said leave or he would kill me. I left, the with help of friends came back se b.c tral to get my daughter but they were gone. It took me 21 years and 4 months to find her. I keep my heart open and had 4 boyfriends and a 2nd husband, they were totally opposite when we lived together. My 2nd husband and I are friends. I am very blessed because in 2010 I reconnected with the man I fell in love with at first sight in 1975. We had lost touch for 35 years. We have been together since. I try to tell him that he is a rare man, I was in the Navy so I met alot of men. So I learned that it's not what happens to you, it's how you respond to what happens to you. My friend who was withe me in 1982 told me I needed to snap out of the hole I was in, because if I didn't shape up I would not be the momma my daughter needs when I found her.

Well, I understood your pov until you said romantic love is overrated. I just think it's rare. And therefore very precious when truly found.  Btw, I'm a 28 yo guy.
