I agree Crystal, for the most part, men these days IMO seem unwilling to bend.. we have to move to them, they've laid roots and ours don't seem to even come into account.. there is not even a discussion of compromise..

to me there's no balance in their masculine & feminine side.. yet the women I know seem to balance out..
I've always felt like a "she-male" (not speaking about sexuality, in that regard I am ALL woman) I'm speaking to my connectedness with my masculine side, that I can handle doing both types of work AND use both sides of my brain.. be it male or female oriented (old school descriptions).. and possibly one of the reasons why I make friends so easily with men.. I can relate on many levels.. however.. lots of men seem to not be able to relate on a similar level with women.. many do not seem to have the empathetic gene nor can they pick up on clues given by women.. also, in my experience, men who relate to my masculine side, seem blind to my feminine side..

all this to say YEAH, I've come to accept being single for the balance of my life because I have yet to meet ANY man that can live up to my expectations, even WITH compromise, of what a relationship shud be.. I've given quite a few the chance to prove me wrong but.. hasn't happened yet so figure it's not gonna..

Hiii
