I may never deal with another man again?

[Anonymous]

After being broken hearted too many times , lied too , and mind games I don’t trust men anymore. I can’t get close to any one for a relationship and I’m extremely guarded. The ideal of getting in a relationship is non existent but I can’t get men to see that who approach me- between the traumas I’ve experienced with men I don’t see it.

Does anyone feel this way after being hurt very bad by women or men?

Don't let those that hurt you have that much control over your life as to become jaded... Not all men will hurt you, there's good men out there. It's not fair to them or to yourself to think all men can't be trusted because of the ones that are no good... My first husband was horrible... And had I let that make me believe all men are like him, I wouldn't of had my second husband, my two beautiful daughters and my sweet/precious grandson... People will hurt you in life... Don't hurt yourself because of those people...❤️

So that’s that to be dealing with men

But then you're letting the wrong people win

Nope I’m tired of dating and dealing with men my PTSD won’t allow me to get close to anyone or trust anyone

I’ve been raped and abused by men @Brainsbeforebeauty

[Brainsbeforebeauty]

So have I... But not all men are rapists and abusers. The more you deny your future because of your past, you're letting those rapists and abusers have power and control over your life

Nah just guarded and cautious

Lots of people have given up on dating, tired of cheating, mind games, and other drama.
