Men are stupid!

Yes you heard me.  And if you are a man reading this, then no, you are probably not the exception.  Sadly, I am not at liberty to give details of the events that have finally led me to this conclusion.  Just know that it was nothing that was done to me.

Guys, do you REALLY not see how hypocritical you are, or do you just think it's funny to see how ( Read more... )

I've so been there. The best advice I can give is for her to forgive herself. At first I was incredibly angry with him, and then I realized that it was truly myself that I hated - hated myself for trusting someone I shouldn't, hated myself for dreaming about a future that I should've seen wasn't going to happen.

Anyone with enough motivation and not enough scruples can deceive someone with enough time and effort. Learning a lesson in spotting liars is good, but dwelling on it and not trying again isn't the right lesson to learn.

That's the thing, is someone really a liar, per se, if they don't even really know they're lying? Or it just doesn't occur to them that that's what they're doing? That's where the "stupid" comes in.

It's actually a fairly unique situation... not as in it's never happened before, but probably not to anyone we know. I can't go into any more details... but yeah, men suck.

Yeah, that doesn't sound like lying. Your friend should just stand up for herself and walk away. If he's "right", then he'll adjust his behavior and make things up to her.

She should, but I fear she won't. There's emotion involved, and I know that's hard.

I don't think there's any "making things up" really. I'm just trying to be there for her and give her what advice I can based on my experience, without actually, ya know, TELLING her what to do.

She's one of those people who is always worrying, caring and thinking of everyone else before herself. :(
