Get over the generalizations and crap and move on. If you dwell on bad things that's what you draw to yourself. It sounds like you're getting something out of the sob stories you're hearing. You can't always be the shoulder to cry on. It becomes too draining.
Everybody's got a story about something bad that happened to thema t some point and time in their life. They either play the victim or they deal with it, move on, accept it as part of their past and become stronger for it. | |

Posted: 1/29/2006 7:06:44 AM | I do hear what you're saying, and I felt exactly the same way when I was in my 20's in Saskatoon, listening to some of the stories the girls had. I know now that I was an angry guy to begin with, and that bad feelings are like magnets, they attract eachother. If you really want to help, I found it's better to just 'be there,' as they say. Compassion and simple attention will go a long way to rebuilding self worth.
And there's nothing stupid about it, just human... | |

Exactly! It's highly dependent on socio-economic background and upbringing - did they see their mother/father being abused as a child? Is that what they now see as a norm for treatment of people in their lives? You get help, giver or receiver of the abuse, and break the cycle. You don't put yourself into situations where abuse will follow.
To say that any one province breeds abusive a$$holes is to say that the borders are closed, and you can't move across the country. People move! And they bring their backgrounds with them... | |

I travel a lot myself and I've met a lot of people, there are differences between everyone maybe a guy from Alberta may seem deceitful to you. But maybe that’s because their not like the guys your used to where your from, turd tapping queer flogger land.
I will say this, I get a lot of emails from the west coast and the girls there seem much sweeter and genuine there. Their straight up about their feelings and won't play games with you.
If you ask me it's the game that killed everything in the dating world that was good and decent and there’s no respect for the non game players. Probably the girls that you have come to know are so scared of their feelings or what ever it is that makes them start the game that it wasn’t the guy who hurt them or maybe it was you giving them sh!tty advice. | |
