I told him I wouldn't write about the specifics on the blog, and I won't. Not that he deserves mercy.
But I'm a little worried. I'm losing my general air of skeptical distance.
Instead, I feel nauseated. Mostly, it's because I thought he was an honorable person -- until he turned out to be something else.
And I wonder, if most guys wouldn't do what these opportunists do -- if they thought they could get away with behaving like foxes in heat.
Another proposition issued -- and rejected. What's the harm?
Well, try being on the receiving end -- for years. It doesn't matter of they have letters after their last name. Who cares if they send you emails replete with typos, or freaking gilt-edged Hallmark cards.
The end result is the same -- the sense that they want to use you -- for one purpose only, and then move on.
If it had happened once, it might be mildly amusing. But there seems to be a trend.
It feels degrading -- disgusting. And, frankly, infuriating.
I know a lot of decent men, kind men -- mostly, they are married. Of course, that doesn't mean that all married men treat their spouses well. Or that it's better to be married and unhappy.
And I know these propositions speak more about the guys than about me.
But I must admit that the tide of murk that drips onto my computer screen has an effect on my self-esteem -- while the men who administer this punishment go blithely, and ignorantly, on their way.
