yeah i have ran into quite a few weirdos. Lately i have noticed that many women in general have serious emotional issues
So last night i get this, "mike why dont you like to open up with me" (pause) "well you dont mind if i open up so we can be more comfortable" Then it hit, "you know the other night when i got really scared, well its because hearing those noises reminded me of when i was touched by a neighbor" I was like "oh shit" then it just kept coming, depression, eating disorders and she seemed like such a nice girl. I feel really bad that all these girls growing up got messed with in the brain. seems like all of them are damaged... Then she said "oh but with you i feel really protected like how my dad use to protect me" |
|
better then her saying "...like how my dad use to fawk me" |

Girlfriend #1 (high school): Space aliens, ghosts, reincarnation
Girlfriend #4 (college): Mental illness (hospitalized), suicide attempt as teen Girlfriend # 7 (15 y ago): molested The rest just chose to keep their insanities to themselves. Many people, men and women, are seriously "damaged". They can still be good people, but some will make you miserable. You just have to figure out what you can live with and without. |

i'd recommend not getting involved with that, but if i really liked a girl i dont know what i'd do.
besides, if she really feels protected with you, abandoning her right after she opens up like that would probably make her feel realllllllllly shitty. something to keep in mind. maybe slowly move towards 'good friends' and really try and be FRIENDS. i woudlnt just bail and not talk to her though, its not her fault. having someone to be there and be a good example of what good guys are like might have a very good and lasting effect on her self-esteem, etc. goodluck. |

Draw down on her and kick her to the curb! You have the forum and beer that is all you need! [/arfcom response] |

You might as well get used to hear that and dealing with it. I would say anywhere from 30% to 50% of the girls out there have a similar story either a neighbor molested them, a relative molested them, they got into a bad situation and were forced into having sex at age 13 or 14, or they were raped. I've heard all of those repeatedly.
Comments that some people here make like "if there is grass on the field then they are ready to play ball" are a funny joke until you end up dating a girl that was pushed into having sex at age 13 and has been screwed up ever since. These women are messed up by men that should know better. But since they are usually older the girl is embarrassed to turn them in and usually if they do no one believes them anyway. |

ahh i am already involved, i really like her and it hurt to hear about her FUBAR situation. My thing is see what happens when you open up? people get scared... |
|
|
I think God has a special corner of hell reserved for child molestors. Actually, I'm pretty sure of it. |

One girl I went out with while in college told me she was a witch. Believed in spells, vampires, and other nonsense. Her parents were quite fond of me. The gf said it was because I wan't like any of her other friends. Anyway, shortly after I broke up with her I got into a wreck. I joked that she put a spell on me.
Another I came very close to getting married, had major issues. After the breakup she met another guy, married, and about five years quit her. So she calls me after all that time, I meet her twice, no sex, and she thought I was going to quit my job, move to her city, and get married. Still had the same issues. Nothing changed. |

Here's a refreshing response. Be a man, move on, and don't hit it.
|
|
here is what i dont get she is petite but still thinks she is fat I always try to compliment her but damn i dont see why such a pretty girl would have such that kind of self image.
|
|
Uhhh...I disagree. They are out there, just hard to find in bars and strip joints. |
|
|
The caution flag has definitely been raised. Proceed with caution.
|
|
but is she pro-gun and want to go to the range with you?
.....that is the real question. |
|
Sometimes I wonder how I managed to find my wife.
mike45acp, Keep looking. They're out there but you do have to wade through a lot of crap to find them. |

What is that old song by Little River Band?
Have you heard about the lonesome loser Beaten by the queen of hearts every time Have you heard about the lonesome loser He's a loser, but he still keeps on tryin' Oooooooh-hooooooo-hooooooo Oooooooh-ooooooh-hoooooooo Sit down, take a look at yourself Don't you want to be somebody Someday somebody's gonna see inside You have to face up, you can't run and hide Have you heard about the lonesome loser Beaten by the queen of hearts every time Have you heard about the lonesome loser He's a loser, but he still keeps on tryin' Unlucky in love Least that's what they say He lost his head And he gambled his heart away He still keeps searching Though there's nothing left Staked his heart and lost Now he has to pay the cost Have you heard about the lonesome loser Beaten by the queen of hearts every time Have you heard about the lonesome loser He's a loser, but he still keeps on tryin' "It's okay", he smiles and says Though this loneliness is driving him crazy He don't show what goes on in his head But if you watch very close you'll see it all Sit down, take a look at yourself Don't you want to be somebody Someday somebody's gonna see inside You have to face up, you can't run and hide Have you heard about the lonesome loser Beaten by the queen of hearts every time Have you heard about the lonesome loser He's a loser, but he still keeps on tryin' Have you heard about the lonesome loser |

The more women I have had open up to me the more women I know who have been sexualy abused. It boggles the mind to think how many molesters there are out there.
I have family members who have told me about 2 of my great grandfathers being molesters, & I it just makes me sick to think that grown men would do such a thing. They should all be killed when caught, no exceptions. Don't discount her as a mental case because of what others have done to her. Discount her for the other stuff. |

I used to know a girl that was a complete head case once I got to know her. The sex was incredible though. Always incredible
|

I usually try to refrain from making blanket statements, but in this case, I'm just gonna have to say it...they're ALL fu**in' crazy, dude. Some are crazier than others, and with some, the craziness is managable...but it's still there. I blame estrogen.
Either way, they're the only game in town...so you just have to figure out if the lunacy outweighs the good stuff, I guess. As for this one, she sounds like she's got more than one strike...so the prognosis for a psychosis-free relationship doesn't look too good. |

Where the hell do you go to meet women anyway...the Tina Turner Center for Beaten and Battered Women?
|
|
Most of the women i meet on a daily basis are like that. I give them rides. We talk in the car. I hear stories about shooting rays of jesus out of their eyeballs, being Bill Gates lover, working for the CIA. I could write a book with all these wonderful stories. Oh yeah one more thing when i meet them, it's usaully because i've just arrested them for something.

Women are all the same.
Trillian and I seem to be having trouble. Oh, well. Life goes on either way... |

Oh Oh I'll play too! GF #1 (high school) Ghosts, anorexia GF #2 (college) Sexual fetishes (excessive) GF #4 (college) Egomaniac- thought she was such a good singer and dancer she could have been on broadway. I don't date anymore. I only have friends with benefits. |

+1 My experience also. |

Girls, nobody want to hear about how you were molested by your uncle/father/brother. at least the guys who got molested by catholic priest keep it to themselves.
|
|
I disagree. There are a lot of really nice, decent, mentally stable, cute wiminz out there. And every freakin one of them is taken. |
|
|
What was your first clue? ????? Yeah, she has emotional issues. Now go sleep with that 15 year old, and then let some guy 10 years from now post on arfcom 'gee, why does this girl have issues?'. *sigh* Men should make an attempt to help women with their issues - not take advantage of them. Else, we have no right to complain. YMMV.... |
|
|
Her willingness to bring it up to you off the cuff is an indication of her perpetual inability to deal with it.
I am amazed at the things women I talk to are willing to bring up about themselves on the first or second conversation that lasts for more than 30 seconds. Some things should indeed be brought to light, but only if marriage is eminent in my opinion. |
|
There's nothing wrong with being open. Actually, I admire it. But I agree that there are some things I don't want to continually hear about. |

Whether you stay with her or not is up to you...only you can decide that. I will say though that the worst thing you can do is stick with her and volunteer to be her "therapist" as in, "Don't worry hunny, I will help you through these emotional issues."
Then she will see you as a therapist and not a boyfriend. If these issues are bad enough to still cause her problems in her daily life or cause problems between you and her, then have her go to a real therapist to get them treated. Depending on her redeeming qualities you may want to risk some of your own money to help her pay for treatment. Or you may want to cut your losses and be done with it. Or it may have been some shitty stuff that happened to her in the past and she's over it now living a normal life. Whatever her problems, they are HER problems. Don't let her assign responsibility to you for fixing them. |
