I received this e-mail from a visitor on my site…
They all think I’m a pretty face without a heart. No matter what I do my heart gets yanked out, stepped on and thrown to the wolves. Today I vowed never to ever date another man again. Yes, it means I’ve turned to women. With women I can see heartbreak coming but with men, it just slams into me like ton of bricks and I’m left standing there angry, sad and broken.
No more. F**k them. Their loss.
I feel the need to respond.
For those of you who are new to the site, I am ‘a better woman’. I took over as the administrator of ihatemen.org in October 2007, and am trying to gear this site towards helping women to gain happiness…I just want it to be a fun site overall. A place where we can share our experiences, words of wisdom and of course laughter.
In regards to the e-mail:
First, men may see you as a pretty face without a heart because you are wearing that on your sleeve…if your heart has been hurt in the past, you may be making that more obvious than you think. Often after being hurt it is easier for us to act cold hearted rather than really dealing with what has hurt us. If we take the time to working through the pain, then we are able to become a stronger person.
Vowing never to date men every again is a cop out. I know nothing about dating women, but I do know that women can be just as conniving, manipulative, controlling, disloyal, and hurtful as men.
On one issue at least, men and women agree; they both distrust WOMEN! - H.L. Mencken
I think that you first need to address the issues you have with yourself before you try to get into any relationship…whether it be with a man or a woman. I believe that if you are in touch with your own feelings and emotions, you will be better able to read the feelings and emotions of those around you, and in turn see heartbreak coming. And if you are in tune emotionally, and you & your partner are open and honest the possibility of heartbreak will greatly diminish.
