I advise you be aware and don't give them too much information and don't badmouth your last boyfriend lest you inadvertently send out signals you like that kind of guy...Me, I flirt with the charmers...but I don't date them. They're charming for a reason. Real men are too busy living life to worry about what people think of them...so do the same. Those kind are worth waiting for. Best to ya.

You're spot on with this one, at least for me. The charmers! Man you nailed that. I did not realize for a long time that that's all they really are, and as you said, they're charming for a reason. My current bf--real man--is definitely not concerned with what others think of how he looks/what he likes/etc. (something I could learn a thing or two from him). It took the "emotional vampires" to get out of my system before I could see that, though.
Aquarius, I understand the need to defend yourself. I don't do it with my bf, but I have the same problem in regards to my family---overexplaining in hopes they'll "get me" when they never have and don't really try that hard to, IMHO.

to all of us
