They’ve lied to themselves. No one has lied to them. If their character is the “type” that allows them to slice and dice women they way they do in terms of value, it’s on them. Plenty of people, both men and women, gay and straight, work to develop emotional intelligence.

NO. Never enough “ughs” do deal with these ass hats.

And why the focus on reproduction? There are other alternatives to having a family. Perfectly healthy and happy women of all ages are adoptive mothers and great ones. I guess these men, now in their 40s and 50s, believe their genes are so worthy of passing on that they have to find a “young enough” mate to breed with…

Your “ugh” so captures this to perfection.

Omg, why though? Why could you relate to that?

Ew at his dating a 18 year old at his age, though. It’s really turned me off of him forever.

How does getting older mean becoming unattractive.

Why you gotta bring up and assume it’s all “chicks”, man?

So?

NO YOU GET OUT.

Uh, do go on.

Glad someone caught that. It was so lewd and obvious that he found her body attractive after being a total ass about her win . What a fucking weirdo. >:(

No. Yes. Er...we should all be bitter when it comes to this topic.

Not even going to lie. I would eat that whole bowl of puppy.

Jesus Christ.

That is absolutely fascinating. I have never heard of this before. As if interacting with a unfamiliar birth parent isn’t stressful and difficult enough a process...

It is unacceptable that any of those people decided to hurt and exploit you. No one deserves any of that. I’m so glad to hear that you have been able to continue growing and shining as a person. Thank you for sharing what you’ve gone through. There are lots of people who cannot.

Well said and you sound awesome.
