There's a certain kind of guy who will do this - up and leave when the going gets tough ( and it always gets tough with a relationship and a baby). It's about the quality of his character and personality. I think we could, as a culture do a better job teaching young women to distinguish between good and lousy men. The…

I dated a guy like this last year. He is desperate to fall in love and start a family. He also can't sustain interest in a woman for more than a month. He also avoided paying for dates, cancelled plans at the last minute and was in general unreliable and childish. What does he do? He's a PhD student in Pure Math.

I agree. I have no idea why people have kids with someone they aren't married to and then act all surprised when they leave.

Hold your head high. The smart people will know that people who send character assassination mass emails are not trustworthy people.

Hi school should know this. It's pertinent to his studies. Tell them.

There are a bunch of red flags in his profile - the picture with the porn star in the background in one.

I don't either. It's a stupid object that only does one thing - kill or maim. I get they have a functional purpose for hunting or defense but to love such an object? That is twisted.

people have selective memories. They forget what bad things they did.

You're going to throw the scumbag out / move out. And you're going to sue him for the back rent. He's using you.

I have some idiot relatives who do missionary work - in Guatemala, a country already overwhelmingly Christian. Yeah, Catholics are Christians, but they refuse to accept it. Idiots.

N. Wood seems like she was a nice lady.

Do you get a lot of those " I think I could learn so much from you, I want your experience" type messages? I get them all the time and those are the most infuriating because they aren't rude but so so misguided. They're looking for Mom.

why don;t you just dismiss this troll? Use the dismiss button next to his reply.

Use the dismiss button on this troll whose name is so offensive I can;t bring myself to type it here.

you can dismiss this moron through the 'dismiss' button in your inbox

Yeah, just when I think she's an airhead celebrity fawner she shows she used to be a proper journalist.

I'm qualified to make a statement about what I observed at that meeting. After the way the mostly middle aged men leered and me and behaved as if it's a social meeting club rather than an addiction recovery program I concluded they weren't serious about recovery or didn't have any other lives they were anxious to get…

the author's problem isn't her drinking, it's her character.

there are plenty of dumb, fucking bunnies that have no self-control or moral values or basic intelligence in every socio-economic class. But when you're poor, the result of having no self-control or moral values or basic intelligence is perpetual hell, if you're rich and white you could be President like Dubya. Them's…
