First blog... ever
Is it bad to admit this is my first blog... ever... anywhere.. Is that bad? Its not like I'm a technophobe, I just never got into the part of the Internet where I felt like telling people my personal thoughts. But I figured what the heck, now is as good a time as any to start.
I grew up really shy. Painfully shy. I never dated, through high school etc. Guess I was a late bloomer in that respect. In college I noticed that many of my friends who were cocky and treated girls poorly got plenty of dates. I never could figure out why that was, they would be self centered and rude and sometimes on purpose. Yet the girls flocked to them.
That was never me. I could never do that. Maybe I'm too different, but I like to treat a girl with dignity and respect. Like a lady should be treated. Am I alone in that regard?

I would hope you are because you sound like a complete apologist. Way to rank on "many of your friends" while protecting the honor of women you've never likely talked to. I bet you'd make for a terrible wingman.
There's lots of different kinds of guys out there. You don't strike me as the confident, cocky type - but you say you know many. That should be proof enough to suggest that there are completely different types of women too. Wait, what website are we on again?
Shy of men yelling at women or worse, I try not to make judgements about interactions between couples. I've had an ex cheat on me then invite me out to Starbucks assuming that if I was ever going to hit her, it would have been then. I got plenty of death stares from other people, but I had more than a right to be angry. Considering, I really wasn't that angry at all; just eager to end things after finding out. I've been the angry guy with a shitty attitude in a public place with my girlfriend before and it's overwhelmingly because she insists on having the conversation there specifically, not necessarily because I'm a complete douchebag throwing a temper tantrum.
It sort of strikes me as odd that you're in your mid-fourties and still volleying with this idea that good women always fall for crappy men. People can change with time, but generally crappy women fall for crappy men. If you want to find a good, mentally stable women, don't fish out of the same pool.
