Wow.

OP found my secret. I wish all women did this. But some women are bound to be victims of these men because some women are either conservatives, or don't know their worth.

All we can do is hope more and more women come into their senses and stop paying attention to men who don't deserve it. Don't ever give second chances, point-blank, period. Do not.

Leave these men alone, and you will reach inner peace.

Men do not deserve your attention, they should earn it and if they can't or won't, leave them be. It's not your business what they do.

You are superior either way.

Be gentle, be kind but don't be a doormat. Don't be TOO nice, don't argue and don't waste your breath. Your answers should be three words or less if a man tries you. And in no way, should you ever BEG a man. That's a dignity you will never get back.

Men are predators; once they see a hint of weakness, they go on the attack. Don't give them an in. EVER.

Once you give them a finger, they'll take the whole arm. Give them the absolute minimum, and only go on if they continue to prove they deserve it. If a man overreacts or steps out of line, run like your life depends on it, because sometimes, it does.

But above all, protect yourself, your pride, and your well-being. That's more important than any man.
