I agree on that. And I have never lived with a girl. Don't plan on it for a looong time either. But I have had several lengthy relationships (1-2 years) and feel that I really knew those chicks. And I am not bitter about women, I am just intelligent enough to learn from patterns I have seen over and over and over and over and over and over in my experience. You'd have to be a fool to ignore your own experiences, especially when these patterns are so damn blatant.
Agreed, but I have to say this ties into a conversation my husband and I were just having yesterday because what you say is something I've heard other men say before on the boards when they make generalizations about women, you need to accept something about yourself:
When you date more than 3 women, and you see a repeated pattern of behavior in those women, then there is only one constant in those relationships, and that constant is YOU. Whether by design or subconsciously we pick the type of person we are attracted to. Women do it all the time, going back to the "bad boy" or the abuser, and everybody is very quick to point out "hey, stupid bitch, it's your dumb ass that is attracted to that type, so stop crying about your black eyes and how men are all dogs or stop choosing to go out with jerks."
But when men find themselves in repeated relationships with women who are shallow, materalistic, or slutty (or whatever pisses them off about their girlfriends/wives/SOs) they turn around and blame the whole gender. Noooo, it's the same as the chick with the black eye, it's the choices you're making.
It's a basic fact of human nature, you're going to find that certain behaviors go hand in hand with certain "types." You go after a cutsie, high maintenance bitch, don't get upset because she likes to spend money, go to the salon and go shopping. They don't get that cute without maintenance, and you can't do that kind of maintenance without LIKING to do it (just like a tricked out car, takes time and money to create that image).
Then take somebody like me, I'm whatever comes AFTER low maintenance, literally cannot remember when the last time I set foot in a salon was, I LOATHE, HATE AND DESPISE shopping, malls, my idea of a fun afternoon is a walk in the woods and the last time I wore makeup was to go to a christmas party. This is the way I am. But damned if there weren't a couple of guys in my life who
wanted me to be a Barbi doll. I can do that once in a blue moon, but regularly
