Hahaha

Let the Entitled White Females begin their tirade!

No wonder there's a marriage strike on here. There's one underway in India, too, Anita, as long as anti-male domestic violence laws do away with men's basic civil rights.

Just bring hubby back here, and he'll marvel at you in contrast to the lumbering, angry, rotund hordes of entitled, slavering white women in this country.

Enjoy!

Are you serious?

"Couldn't one be a perfectly sound person who leads a far more purposeful life once engaged in a harmonious symbiosis with another human being? I certainly think so. Moreover, why do we have to be 'perfectly sound' before we can meet someone? Why can't we be desperately alone and unhappy and become much more balanced or healthy after getting involved with someone?"

Because one and one is two, that's why. Because your stability, confidence, and purpose should not rest with another human being. You can certainly be changed by a partner, but co-dependence is not romantic; it robs you of your adult status.

Geez. You needed to be told this?
