Another man here, I see a lot of guys out there who treat women terribly. I also see a lot of women who continue to chase them and try to make them different. It all confuses me. As a teen, being a "nice guy" I could never get a girlfriend. Of course I had other big issues going on that probably led to that. I am not really friends with guys who are jerks, and I have a fair amount of guy friends. So there are good guys out there.
I don't think what you said was irrational. Especially given your experience with men who have hurt you so much, I'm sorry for that.
Thanks for posting this.
