When I explained the reason I was calling it off he told me that every single girlfriend he'd had said the same thing. The guy's only real relationship had been a six month affair with a married woman he'd met at a party and had sex with in a cupboard the same night. Just about all the women he knew utterly despised him.

Bringing your own personal feelings into a discussion is not healthy. Linda showed her personal experience card in the house and she got oiked very quickly. Being blinded by prejudices isn't healthy as well we all know and therein lies the reason for your inability to see what Jims all about.

If you could put aside your hatred for men you would see Jims aims are plausible and lovable at the same time. My old dad used to say....Let not one man suffer for another mans failings.
