Those are some valid points. I tend to date women in the mid 20's to early 30's. So I don't think that's really an issue. Is it the way that I treat women? I don't think so. You and I are a like in many ways. You seem to be so confident that you don't have any issues as to what your girlfriend is doing when you're not around. I think I'm equally as confident, but I approach the issue differently.Francisco d'Anconia said:Then I question the type of women you choose to go out with. Is it that you choose disrespectful women or is it that you forgo qualifying her until you "get to know her better?"
Could it be the age of the women who are disrespectful or is it the way that you treat women which causes them to disrespect you? There's something to be said about the type of filter you use to view women. Mine may be overly optimistic but you have to understand that I can't remember the last time that I actually spent any amount of time with women like the ones described here. I 'm willing to chalk it up to my own senility...
None the less, it may be my lack of concern of what a woman does when I'm not around. Is it over confidence, perhaps. But then again I trust my capability of spending time with women who don't do these types of things.
If my wife told me that she wanted to go shopping with her girlfriends, and then go get a bite to eat, I wouldn't have a problem with it. But as somebody else mentioned, if she's telling me she's going to go "clubbing" with a group of her single friends, I'm going to have a problem with that.
My way of dealing with disrespectful behavior is to be open about it, and let her know I don't approve. If she continues with the behavior, the relationship WILL end. You seem to want to deal with it by not letting it bother you, and project strenght and confidence that way. Ultimately we probably accomplish the samething.
Either way, I wish you luck and look foreward to disagreeing with you some more
