Is anyone else finding that the percentage of disgruntled, jaded men is extremely high these days? In dating, I come across so many guys who have been so burned by women that they come to view them so negatively and with such distrust that it really affects their dating life.
I went out with this guy last week who started the date acting like a jerk. I was very close to walking out until he saw that his behavior had affected me, and he apologized. He said that he had spent his life dealing with "phony" women and that he thought I was just another one of the "phony" ones.
What's scary to me is (1) that he jumped to the conclusion that I was "phony" so quickly, and (2) that he felt because I was "phony" that he had the right to act like an ass? Is this a male ego thing, to burn before you get burned?

From what I've observed, there's been a role reversal among men and women of this generation.
There are far more quality men than quality women. These women screw the men over (whether it be cheating, divorce, constant rejection, etc) and the men become bitter and jaded.

Then don't date! If you're going to be rude and act like an ******* just sit at home and keep your bitter, toxic personality to yourself!

I think that men and women alike probably start out as quality, and then they meet the wrong person (or people) and get screwed over, and then they become guarded and mean.
Way back when, I was called ugly a few times because I found older men undesirable. Quite a few rep comments by the guys on here lol.
Meh. I think there are still quite a few nice guys out there. Untainted, so to speak. It's difficult to see it here because these forums are populated with resentful, unhappy threads centered around dating life woes.

i think raena is right, the guy sounds like he is a bit unstable.
i personally have been burned by women in the past, but i dont take that out on other women. i take all people on an individual basis. thus if that person burns me, they get put out, but i wont take it out on their friends, or similar people.
