I Apologize

I speak for men, as the men who need to say this the most are too often too cowardly too.

To all of you who ladies who search for love, I know it can be said that you can choose your relationships better, but we're half of the problem here, we treat you like trash, like objects, but you're so much more, even when we treat you otherwise. You deserve the world, but you get trash.

I'm sorry.

You, personally, do not owe women any sort of apology for the behavior of other men. Your sympathetic approach to women is certainly appreciated even though I know that women, too, can be villains. Your chivalrous support for wronged women is compassionate.

So you don't see what he just did as a passive aggressive attempt to get attention from women by being the "nice guy?"
I'm a guy. Trust me when I say that's what he was going for.

@Ynotisay: Yes, I do know that guys do that sometimes. But this is the Internet, I won't be meeting him...and I'm 71 years old.

@Ynotisay: why should your word mean more than mine? Just because you're a guy doesn't mean you understand the minds of other men. You assume my intent because were you in my situation, yours would be different.

I honestly hope to give some comfort to those hurt, to acknowledge them & maybe tell them what they've wanted to hear for so long.
