Why....?

[James]

I remember reading a novel once where the author was decribing the thought processes of one of the main characters. The man prized his niece because she had common sense and he didn't believe many women did, the author went on to reflect that men don't have any more common sense than women but the male character looked for that abscence in them.

Thats a bit of a digression but you see where I am going.

In my experience, cliches and generalizations aside, I have met as many men into relationships as women, its just that us men don't tend to date other men. So we gripe about women doing the same thing we do. We look for that behavior.

Unfortunately, the relationship seekers of each gender don't always run into each other or at the right time.

Plus a lot of people on both sides try to force relationships that just don't have a deep mutual connection . . . and so one side or the other is unhappy or running away.

Just my two cents,
