I got nuttin...but...I will never understand what attracts women to "bad boys", and why are they usually drop dead gorgeous women ? I understand that young girls might not want to date guys that remind them of their Fathers...but still. Sooner or later the guy that buys them a mini-van might win...but it's a long wait
Having taught for over 40 years and noting the attention that attractive vs not that attractive vs homely kids get, I finally understand both Dugl's observations about DDG women being attracted to BB's, & Dumb Blonds. The more attractive they are, the less they focus on education, the quicker they get in to relationships, the quicker they suffer the consequences of their good looks!
But Dugl; I don't get the reference to the minivan...?

ok tiara, im happy u saw that this relationship was bad 5 years ago and got out. im wondering what made you two start talking again in the first place? while you were in therapy did he also go for therapy and maybe anger mang classes? i do believe people can change so if you two both put in the time and see something there you both want then thats great. however he already said he wants the friends with benifits while you want the relationship, commitment, etc.... im sure this part will sound bad but even w/ the relationship he doesnt need to call every day. yes its nice but you both need time apart. my advice is this..............try the friends thing ( i know the no sex part will suck but..) go out do stuff, hang out whatever...the point is to see if he keeps his "friend" dates with you. if he doesnt he wont keep real dates with you. if he wont agree to it at all even for say a month then he wants the sex and nothing else..sorry i know that will suck if its true but atleast you'll know. i wont tell you to give up, just step back and see if you can see things differently, ask your roommate, friends...people who see you both as to what they think. you also need to see things from his perspective. this will all take time but if the relationship is worth it whats a month or two making sure it will work the second time around when you two may end up together. keep me posted id like to know what happens

He already told me that being just friends and not friends with benefits is not an option. We "need to have sex for the relationship to progress." So I already know that much. I feel like I am the only one trying and making compromises here, when he is the one who asked me back to begin with. He basically went to all this trouble to get me back, and as soon as he had me, laid down the law. I think it is BS and although he did change in a lot of ways for the better - this is the same old stuff - I change and try to improve myself, and he says, this is who I am deal with it. I think I need to get out now before I get trapped in a horrible situation again and need all the support I can get on this.
