If a woman does, then it could be years before you have a clue what was really on her mind.

I've had several female friends who, while they said that they weren't looking for a relationship with me (which I was fine with, by the way), would still be obviously jealous when I was actually seeing someone.

Guys are monomaniacal, and it shows in all aspects of life. Women are multi-taskers, and it shows in all aspects of life.

In what way? Gossip?

In my experience, guys don't gossip about their girlfriends nearly as much as girls gossip about their boyfriends.

In practice I find that's "anyone else."

You hit the nail on the head.

Piss a guy off, he's looking to kick your ass. Piss a woman off, it may be years before she stabs you in the back.

Fuck that, I'll take men any day in the friendship dept.

Truth! Everyone handles things in their own way... I'm curious why most if not all of you relationship experts are on your second+ marriages. Yeah, yeah I know, it was all the other person's fault...I'm sure that you all did everything right.

So it's OK if you have multiple g/fs, but the those of us who have been married more than once are losers?

Shame on you.

No,no, no I don't claim to be an expert on relationships. Nor am I saying that my way is the only way. I tend to end relationships rather quickly for various reasons. Oh and I never said that you all are "losers"...
