I feel like I can’t catch a break. Every man in my life has turned out to be a horrible person with deep flaws. My ex who I dated for three years turned out to be a full blown narcissist who was cheating on me the entire relationship. He topped it off with attempted sextortion. I’ve cut contact with my brother after he told me to kill myself in a minor disagreement. My best friend has turned out to be a pathological liar and takes advantage of our friendship. My own father has become an immature drunk who constantly argues with my mother. Even coworkers can’t just be my coworker without crossing boundaries. And then you meet up with your girl friends for drinks and they all have similar experiences. What is going on with these men?? I’ve almost completely given up on trying to date or meet new people. I don’t know the words to describe how I’m feeling. Defeated? Exhausted? Confused? Traumatized? I mean this is so obviously a man’s world we’re living in but I feel like something is so wrong here. Does anyone else understand this?? Have I just been so naive my entire life and somehow surrounded myself with the worst possible men?? Sorry if this type of post isn’t appropriate. I’m not trying to sound like a misandrist just venting a little bit. I posted this is another sub and only got one response from a man ofc.
