are all men cheaters...do you always have to look at pics of nude women to feel like a man?...why do men always try to make a woman feel like she is stupid?!?


honestly though why do men behave like children when women try and ave a conversation with them? I am so tired of fighting when i try to make my feelings understood. when I feel as if i am being ignored, it hurts me, my husband decided tat he was just being normal when he looked at pics of nekkid women, no matter how i felt about it, am i making to much of this?
I know it's been said, but it's most definitely true. Not all men are alike!

My fiance and I have agreed that cheating is the one reason either of us would leave the relationship. It's not likely to happen! He's as much against it as I am. We both had bad experiences with others earlier in our lives.

He doesn't have porn lying around and yup, we've discussed it! He may be unusual, I don't know, but he's said he went through that 'phase' and doesn't really care for it anymore, not to mention he ..ahem.. says he has no use for it now! He still looks at women, but he isn't going to go after them. As he puts it, "I'm not dead, so I look, but they aren't what I want, you are."

From the very beginning of our relationship he's said one of my attributes he fell for was intelligence, so I don't feel anything but respect and admiration from him in that way. I think Reeka mentioned that her bf thinks her mind is sexy and Nacht has told me many times that one of the things he's attracted to is my mind...so there's two guys who quite obviously value a woman for her ability to think!

I have some really great conversations with my fiance! Oh, we have tiffs and misunderstandings but one thing we always do is talk it out- even if we have to wait a little while for one or the other to cool off. So far, in the 2 yrs we've known one another we've never gone to bed angry or upset- we've always worked it out or at least gotten to a point where neither is angry anymore.

I guess that might sound like bragging- I didn't intend that...it's just how things really are for me. I feel very blessed! Anyway, I wanted to point out that not all men are as bad as you might think. I know a lot of wonderful men who are great husbands/boyfriends and dads. [img]smile.gif[/img]

Hopefully you can work things out with your husband and begin to feel better about your life and the men in it! I'd hate to think anyone would go through life feeling that all men were childish or vile!

I would definitely recommend that you and your husband get away to enjoy yourselves and talk about things that are important in your life together. The idea about getting a sitter and going out is a good one! If you can't work it out and start feeling better, perhaps you could find a counselor to talk it over with?
