Shock collar. That way you can train him, and if he tries to run you can stop him right in tracks by using the high setting.

Can't even believe I am reading that but since I am, glad I'm not dating right now.

Usually the most you push people the more they push back, unless they are spineless.

Really I don't know why women waste their time with this garbage, as I see it, it always ends up counterproductive. For the spineless guys out there, those are the ones that end up cheating and carrying on with naughty behavior.

Personally for myself as a man in my 30's, I have one mommy, don't need or want another, thanks.

What's your stance on the original grievance - keeping your word or not giving it if you have no intention to keep it?

Training and/or changing another person. Give some serious and honest thought to just how difficult it can be to change yourself. Its tough, and its nearly impossible to change another persons ways.

We are who we are.

I thought that this punchline said everything there was to say about training men:

"And until your attitude changes, you're not going to, either!"

If men know what side their bread's buttered on, there is a certain reward for doing things to our SO's liking. Which can be withheld for bad behavior.

Dunno, the OP deleted the text of the "complaint" by the time I got to this thread.

What I do know is that you can't control or change people. Only they can change their ways.

Women for whatever reason like the challenge of changing men for some reason or getting them under control. I think they are barking up the wrong tree on that one. Seems like every married or LTR woman I know is constantly complaining about unrealistic or unrealized expectations they had of their men. And the more they try tying down the man, the more he tries to escape.

If I thought for a moment a woman was trying to "train" me I would be gone so quick. You train animals, and maybe children, but certainly not your possible mate, unless you are just plain naive. I also have another name for women that would do that but the moderators don't like us using those words.
