"Go slow but be quick to leave when he shows he's bad for you" we don’t do this enough

Number 14: If there is any sign of abuse, like uncontrolled anger, disrespect, put-down's, etc. RUN!! Don't call him out on it. Just leave (safely) and block him. All abuse starts small and escalates. It won't get better, it's not your fault, and you can't fix him!!

“Most men do not change.” I want to remember that.

I had a first date which went so badly, I paid the whole bill after the gentleman excused himself to the bathroom. He came back and continued to tell me how I should be conducting myself, and that I was not to speak to him as an equal, because men are the head of the family. (We weren't related. We had no kids together.) I kept it cool, smiled, listened attentively for the next half hour or so. At the end of the meal, he asked for the check and the waitress informed him that 'the lady has already paid.'

He lost it.

In public.

It was amazing.

It was the most enjoyment I'd gotten out of that date the entire night. No regrets. Best $80.00 I've ever spent on a guy I wasn't related to. 10/10 recommend.

I vote "yes" for more imaginary daughter advice videos.

14· Men aren't idiots. When he does something unfair/ manipulative to you & act like– *"What happened? Why are you overreacting? What have I done?"* –HE KNOWS EXACTLY WHAT THE F**K HE HAS DONE TO 🤷🏽‍♀️

I teared up when he said "you are amazing" 
My father never told me that. thank you

#12: It is not your job to get him to like you or make the relationship work. SOOO many women do this, resulting in many men getting all their needs perpetually met, just wandering from woman to woman. I've had men test me like that on the first date. They bail straight away after realizing I'm not a Pleaser. If it's not 50/50, it's not worth it to me.

12. When you call out his bs, be sure to do it *in the moment* it happens- instead of keeping it to yourself forever. I made the mistake of holding things I didnt like to myself until he made me mad for another reason and it would make me look like the silly one for "bringing unrelated" things up

[prettybird]

The only things is, I was a secure high value woman until I met the wrong man who destroyed everything I built in myself. Every woman needs to listen to this video. ❤

This imaginary dad is better than many dads out there.

[ssmith]

Don’t listen to people who claim that if a man treats his mother well he’ll treat you well. Plenty of cultures have a “respect your elders“ mentality, which doesn’t mean he will treat you well. How the father treats the mother is the template for how he will treat you. In one toxic relationship, he was very respectful toward his mother, but treated his girlfriends in the same toxic way his father treated his mother. Including cheating.

[naomiprins]

3 good signs I’ve learned is:
- If he makes you a better person (challenges your thinking, helps you break a bad habit etc)
- If you can resolve a fight well and both feel closer afterwards
- Your closest friends like him (and if they don’t, you should really listen)

[Anonymous-evrl]

The funny thing is, i chose the guy i was not as attracted to because he seemed like a great guy. And he was really nice for a while before being literally abusive and emotionally manipulative. After that, i decided that i cant even trust a guy's actions anymore. He was lovely, until he wasnt. My number one advice for all women and girls out there is to always ALWAYS trust your gut. Especially if it's usually right. My gut kept telling me he was a red flag and i kept picking up on very subtle signs he was a red flag but i convinced myself i was overanalysing everything. Words and actions can be misleading. Your gut is right 9 times out of 10.

When a guy says you can do better than me, run! He's telling on himself

[margaritakleinman]

"The right man will see it. No proving needed". That says it all! Thank you.

[EzrinErisha]

I'm 26 and had enough, relationships traumatized me so much. I'm the type of person who's always stay true to my words so it hurts so much when their actions don't match their words. It's tiring. I'm choosing myself now. I'd rather be alone than being hurt again.
