To me it sounds like she has come to conclusions about what she wont put up with. I do not think that her experiences mean she is at fault for these men being assholes. If the issues she mentioned are true(and I believe they are) then it says more about THEM than her. She has broken free and knows what she deserves. Aint' Nothin' wrong with that.

You know me well, sarah!
The whole point of this thread was to rant about the state of affairs of my absent dating life NOW as opposed to to hell I went through for 2 decades and what i learned from it.
It was more a reflection rant about what I've learned after everything I put up with from the wrong men I met and dated, and how I know better now and won't put up with the same shenanigans, abusive behaviors, or downright stupidity.
I have broken free. And, like my favorite gal Vivien Leigh said in Gone With the Wind, "It was better to know the worst than to wonder." And "Hardships make or break people."
I don't have to wonder anymore. I know what types of men to avoid now. I know what I deserve if I ever do date again, and what I will and what I won't put up with from them. I don't need to explain myself. Not in a rant thread.
