Ever notice that with the women thave have abusive relationships, the abusive relationships are ALWAYS the longest ones they have, and the decent guys they date, are the shortest relationships, and they wind up dumping him?

Yes. Or a woman gets rid of one abuser, only to hook up with another. I think both personalities tend to seek each other out. These types of women "say" they dont want abusers, but their very makeup invites them in. By this i mean self esteem issues, not being self reliant, or placing certain values on bad traits in men, etc.

An abusive guy is a challenge, she will want to "change" him, and this conflict provides the drama she needs to maintain her interest in him. Otherwise she would get bored and miserable and leave a guy. Hence why nice guys fail with women, cannot hold on to them long, because they bore women with the lack of challenge.

Not true at all.

Take it from a woman who's been in an abusive relationship.

So how long was this relationship? If it was a long time, why didn't you leave, and have your abusive relationships been longer or shorter than your non abusive relationships?

I don't think the OP gives a crap about relationships or how man women he can get in bed.

He is just making an observation.

If you want to feel sorry for women who put themselves in a sitaution to be abuse by a woman beater, then by all means do what you feel is right for you.

I don't feel sorry for women who stick around with abusive men. I think they're lacking a few cells up in their noggin.

However, I also don't feel sorry for people who incessantly WHINE, such as the OP, or people who let their gigantic inferiority complex rule their views, also the OP.

Furthermore, I think men who love to harp about how all the "violent, thuggish" men get girlfriends while nice boys can't even get a date need to stop complaining and be more assertive (and no, by assertive I do not mean "Hey Moderator cut: snip, you and me are going to Moderator cut: snip tonight.)
