Oh I can fix me to get along with them, I was married for 18 years so I assure you I know how to act. The problem is having spent that long being someone I wasn't to keep the peace for everyone else, I'm not doing it anymore. I'm a WYSIWYG, What You See Is What You Get. I'm not playing games with someone, I'm not going to listen to their version of what qualities I lack, or need to improve upon. Quite frankly I'll spend the entire rest of my life alone, and happily so, before I will ever endure that shit again. It's wrong to expect people to change to fit your idea of perfection, I would never ask that of anyone, I just expect the same courtesy especially from people who profess to love me. Perhaps that's entirely too naive or just plain stupid, but that's what I want. Like me, don't like me, I don't care but I'm going to be me regardless and they can either deal or GTFO.
Men don't want intelligent, independent, open-minded women, at least not the one's I know. Oh they say they do, but it's lies all lies. They want women they can control, and I assure you I actually don't have an issue with that, you show me a competent leader and I'm happy to follow, but they are few and far between.
Sorry I'm a little pissed off at the moment, in the event that slipped by you. I honestly never rant, but I'm just damn near thoroughly livid at the moment.
