Could you see yourself dating/marrying a guy that is easily controlled?

What type behaviors does a man exhibit that let you know he doesn't have a so called "backbone"?

Thoughts...stories.....feel free to share what you like.

Isn't manipulation a clear sign of disrespect?

Manipulative ploy is pseudo-sociology in action.

I don't think anybody want to be manipulated or controlled or influenced by others, but they do it to others anyway. I think ALL humans are manipulative in one way or another without knowing it or admitting it.

I don't respect men who can manipulate, but oh well, I can forgive and forget at least every once in a while. Not like I am all that perfect myself.

If she respects the man, she don't want to manipulate the man in the first place.

Cant respect a man who can be manipulated, or the b that's doing the manipulating.

And vice versa.

Why would any guy want to be with a woman like that? It seems very disrespectful.

Agree.

Seems like a lot of men these days are easily being manipulated by women. Many will do whatever is asked of them just to get a woman's attention or to get sex from her.

I know guys that have cut family off......emptied their bank accounts....and gotten themselves into horrible situations because they didn't have the balls to say NO.

Some guys will do anything to get laid even give up their dignity and self-respect.
