@Allmychickenscometoroost do you mind if I ask why would you love to have another relationship?
The longer I am single, the more I am embracing it and realising living without a man is so much better than having to put up with all the negatives living with one entails:
They always seem lovely at first. Attentive, loving etc. but it NEVER lasts. Over the long term, men will never do their fair share, so always get more than they give, they're entitled, they expect to be pandered to, huff (or worse) if they don't get their way, are incapable of compromise or altering their opinions or behaviour to accommodate others. As they get older they start to tell long boring stories about themselves or to explain how great they are. They spend less time on personal hygiene and grooming, while expecting women to work hard for their affection.
And that's the ones that aren't out and out abusive! And so very many of them are abusive, controlling, violent and sexually deviant.
We know the horrendous stats on domestic violence perpetrated by men against women.
We know misogyny is rife in the police, many other institutions and quietly in male groups everywhere.
A huge number of men sexually abuse children- often their own children (reportedly 1 in 35 men has the potential to be a child abuser www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-3132884/amp/750-000-British-men-want-sex-children-Shock-new-abuse-statistics.html).
Beyond child abusers, there are plenty of other sexual deviants - the porn industry and trans lobby demonstrate that. ANd almost all men seem hardwired to be sexually attracted to very young women - it's weirdly acceptable for men to say they fancy skinny, prepubescent 25 year olds.
Men who fall out of love/ stop being sexually attracted to their partners will often have affairs. If that's not an option, they turn nasty - become emotionally abusive to their partner. They don't leave because they are entitled and lazy. It's their partners fault for not turning them on anymore. This emotional abuse was hidden for so long because, well, even physical abuse and rape within marriage were considered acceptable until very recently.
Now that women are calling out the emotional abuse, it seems that almost every single woman who has had a relationship with a man has experienced some level of abuse - from the low level being taken for granted, through nastiness and manipulation, up to physical and mental abuse which has a long lasting impact on the victim.
Why do we keep going back for more? Isn't it time we cast off these men and started living our lives free of their negative impacts?
