Ok, so I'm going thru that mean stage now. I hate all men except for my son and my dad. Are there any good men out there? Men who don't want to cheat, who aren't looking for the greener pasture? <P>Ok, so I don't expect any responses from this. Just wanted to vent a little. My poor children today. I think they thought I was turning mean.

Eastern Washington State here.....<P>Kate, hang on, we have all been there...when this happens to us, all kinds of uncomfortable thoughts come to the surface, I have even thought that I would NEVER want any relationship with ANy man after this...but as the fog lifts and your life slowly comes backtogether, you realize that not all men are like our betrayers, and probably even they are not as bad as we once thought. <P>------------------<BR>Susan<P><BR>

Yes, we fellow-Western Washingtonians need to get together and have a pow wow sometime, or "lattes" as we know it.

Fun..... There are some great places for a little get together like the Spegetti Factory in Seattle.... Great food, etc... or..<P>We could always do a budget "Denny's" somewhere, but heck, getting dressed up and treating ourselves to a nice night out with the girls, might just be what we all need..<P>cozy

I hate all men too.<P>I guess I don't hate my dad, but do have resentments and emotional hurts from him too.<P>All the men in my life have hurt me either intentionally or unintentionally. I don't ever want a relationship with one again.<BR>

Even if all men are like the betrayers, there is no way to predict whether a given one will be, no warning signs to look out for, nothing you can do to prevent it. It does no good to get to know them well first, no good to be married to them for almost 20 years even. And I suspect the same thing applies to women. It is just too much of a risk to love any other adult.
