That's not flashbacks, it's permanently raised blood pressure.

I only have a few more years before I get there. But I've raised my daughters playing the fart game and doing all manner of disgusting things, so they think boys are really gross. I'm hoping this either postpones their interest in boys, or turns them into lesbians.

I'm simply shocked. ;)

McKenzie -- don't ever put up with anyone hitting you. Especially if they whine and cry afterward and say they're sorry and they will never do it again.

You are better than that. You deserve better than that. You deserve someone who will love you, cherish you, and take care of you. Don't settle for less. Those guys are out there, and they're worth waiting for and looking for.

Too many females are stupid enough to think "I can change him. He's really a good person inside."

Bullshit.

Just keep telling yourself you're worth more than that.

Just for fun (actually I really do want to know) what is your religion? If you can stomach it, I'd suggest that you have a read of this article

A skeptics view of love
A skeptics view of sexual transcendence
Race sex and atheism
No strings attached
Are we having sex now or what?

Not that any of these are perfect, but I think she takes a pretty healthy and empowered view on these things, so have a read (if you can) and examine your own thoughts and feelings, while being careful to question everything you've ever been told is true.

Your answers are for you, so there's no need to respond, but if you feel like responding that's always welcome.

Greta, what do you think about the Mona Lisa's smile?

Well, the 17.3 degree curve to the corner of her mouth gives us a 35% chance of her smiling because she has a secret, a 10% chance of this being a self-portrait.

Man, she can take all the magic out of something. I guess that's why she's a skeptic.

Yes, we do tend to prefer fact over imagination. I tend to see that as a virtue

Lots of times it is. But sometimes you just have to enjoy the beauty of something. :) My post was mainly just a joke. Ignore me...

You gotta admit that alot of the way today's younger men treat younger women is brought on by the women.
What are those guys supposed to think when girls go around calling each other bitchs, hos, and sluts? I know this dates me but I think it's horrible. Of course guys are gonna treat women badly when they don't show respect for each other.

And reality TV doesn't help matters either.

Can't agree more. I feel so bad for the teens these days, having all these adult pressures foisted on them at ever-younger ages. Having *reality* shows like The Bachelor/Bachelorette, the one with those two no-talent Kardashian girls, etc etc...doesn't help. Sending pm.

McKenzie, you are 17 years old. Get your life together, focus on your own future and forget about a relationship until you are ready and strong enough to handle all that goes with it. It doesn't appear that that is the case at the moment. I assume you are still living with your parents? How old is your abusive boyfriend? You live in Texas, so I assume your dad is fairly well armed...

Not trying to give you crap. I raised two teenage girls and you are giving me flashbacks. ;-)

My abusive boyfriend? What if it isn't my boyfriend..? No, dad doesn't have any weapons luckily.

What's everyone's thought on abuse..?

My ex hit me once. Once. I grew up being abused, once i was 12 and stood up for myself, i vowed never to let it happen again. When i could speak again, i got my best knife, cornered him, and told him if he ever hit me in anger again, he was losing a hand. We're no longer together, but he never raised a hand to me again.

I fail to understand women that put up with being hit, and go from man to man being treated the same way. Respect yourself.

Sorry. Assumed. Is it someone in your family? Your dad? I'm not sure it's good to be airing this here. I am hoping one of our members PM'd you with some useful info and maybe who to contact if you need help. This is a highly sensitive issue.

I figure this will annoy you but.... Nowadays?????
Men have been after sex as long as there have been women, or men for that matter. I suspect you're after sex too. If not, your rant should be about friendship.

Wow..I'm not surprised that you assumed that. But NO I'm not after sex. That is possibly one of the worst things someone could say to me.

It sounds very suspiciously like your father is abusing you, physically, mentally, or sexually is really the question isn't it? But since you're glad he doesn't have weapons, I assume it's physical..

If I am correct, you need to go to the police, now, not later, there is no other possible solution.

I think perhaps Louis may be thinking elsewhere. In the internet world there are many reasons why someone would join a site and within a few dozen posts reveal hints that they are being abused. Many of the scenarios raise red flags for everybody.

Not really that..It's the fact that every relationship I've been in has ended terribly. Guys don't know how to treat women anymore.

Guys don't know how to treat a women? Or the guys you date don't know how to treat a woman?

Maybe you need to stop dating and figure out why you always date guys that end relationships terribly. Yes, there are terrible guys out there and you seem to attract that type of guy. Figure out why that's happening and change your ways to attract nicer guys.

I would guess that you don't like the nice guys for some reason. So, you'll always end up with the terrible guy.

Or maybe you need to find God. There's a threadhere where you can always ask some God Quetions.

Or, you can ask some non-God questions here.

Or give up men all together and ask some questions here.
