[QUOTE]Originally posted by Baloo: [QB] I post a link below that answers (in part, at least) your question (read Real Story 4 first. The rest are useful too, to some degree). <center> [URL=http://www.scalzi.com/john/valentine.htm]http://www.scalzi.com/john/valentine.htm[/URL] </center> Yes, Ultra Magnus (hopefully not your real name or I think we've discovered part of the problem [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/wink.gif[/IMG]), women know what's good for them, and unfortunately, they avoid men who exhibit these fine qualities in droves. Instead, they are drawn to jerks like (proverbial) moths to a flame. Don't blame them, they can't help themselves. Fortunately, this tendency usually diminishes and, in some cases, disappears when they reach adulthood. Your best hope is to stay away from the ones who haven't recovered their common sense (no matter how good she might look in a string bikini). Don't think you can "rescue" her from her awful lifestyle either. It won't work and if you're lucky she'll only hate you for your trouble. You don't want to date someone who thinks all men are jerks, but dates them anyway. Don't think for a moment she believes you're the exception. She [i]might[/i], but she will eventually begin to believe it anyway, even if you [i]are[/i] [b]Prince Charming[/b]. You wouldn't want her to be the mother your children, she'll just mess their heads up, too. If you don't think you'll have children, remember also that no form of birth control is 100% effective, including "the doctor said I was sterile". Trust me. I know. Pick a potential mate (or date, for that matter), based on her honesty, joy of life, and what your mother and female friends would describe as "a wonderful personality". After a while, she'll start looking pretty good no matter her appearance. She'll become your standard of beauty anyway, as long as she cares about you, and you her. If she already looks good by "conventional" standards, so much the better. If she looks like she ought to be a model and you can't figure out why she would want to go out with you, do some more research before committing your heart. It's worth the extra work. I was about to climb higher upon the soapbox when I figured this could turn into a senseless rant. I hereby relinquish the soapbox so others may contribute. Hopefully one of the Forum's distaff members will fill in many of the gaping holes in my logic, as well as adding much that I cannot, being "merely" male [IMG]http://flare.solareclipse.net/wink.gif[/IMG]. --Baloo [/QB][/QUOTE]
