Is it true once a woman loses respect for a man is nearly impossible for him to get it back from her especially in a relationship?

Question

Doesn't not include cheating or lying.

Yes it is true that women rarely gain respect for men once a man has proven he doesn't deserve it. While everyone here can agree lying and cheating are the worst, I can give you some other examples since you already specified them

Drug use: I have zero tolerance for drug use and do not respect people (family, boyfriend, friend...) who use drugs. Using in the past and overcoming an addiction is one thing, but I cannot respect or date a man who uses drugs. I had a friend who kept trying to get with me even after I repeatedly told him smoking pot was bad for him. He told me he quit after I explained the hazards to him, but then I found out later he lied about that too. There was never a chance of a romantic relationship, but now there's no friendship either

Video games: I have played video games and do spend a decent amount of time online, but I find it incredibly difficult to respect someone who bases their life on or spends massive amounts of time playing games. I could date a guy who played video games, buy if he ignored me for the games, then I would no longer respect him. My best friend had to dump a guy who focused so much on games he ignored her stripping butt naked in front of him

Tardiness: showing up late or cancelling plans last-minute shows you don't respect someone else's time. If a man can't respect my time, then he doesn't deserve my respect. My best guy friend and I recently got into a big argument about his tardiness because I rushed getting off work to make a deadline he gave me of 6:30 when the event we were meeting up at started at 9. He is always late but then tell me to be hours early, and I have to rush to meet them. Now he is respectful enough to tell me the correct time something starts or say it is okay to show up late rather than "we have to be there by _:__". So this one is redeemable if he changes, but it causes unnecessary panic and argumentation if he is always tardy. I respect people who are punctual and plan well

Depends how thought out her decisions are, lol. If she didn't really think through how or why his behaviour caused her to lose respect foe him, she might change her mind again.
A thing that makes me lose respect for someone is them showing the lack of a spine, excessive buthurtness and pettiness.

Yes it is true and sometimes women lose respect for little or no reason at all. The feelings are not there anymore so they lose the respect they once had.

He's delusional if he thinks the respect she had for him in the first place was anything other than a facade.

slatyb · Answer

Once someone decides that you are not attractive for whatever reason, it's very rare that they change their mind. You can be dumped for any reason -- it doesn't have to be a relationship crime like cheating or lying. Once you have been dumped, there's very little chance of getting back together.

believe it or not, if SHE cheats on HIM and he gets over it, she will lose respect for him. every woman ever, no exceptions. only some do it consciously, some unconsciously. but thats the reason why a relationship can never go on if the woman cheated...

Dionigi · Answer

True. I do it too and I end the relationship. And all of you guys should do it too.

SngBirdy · Answer

The question has 2 meanings. You are asking about respect, but people here are talking about cheating and lying. This is more about trust, not respect.
Losing respect for me is e. g. not standing up for your girlfriend

Benedek38 · Answer

Of course it is true. Women are irrational, and they are provind themselves more horrible by the day. Pathetic.

angry_llama · Answer

Yep 👀 personally I don't trust people easily and if they lose my trust, I won't ever look at them the same, they basically don't exist to me anymore 🤷‍♀

LegendarySir · Answer

True. Respect is difficult to gain, but very easy to lose.

Hurlyburly · Answer

Yea, some of us tend to never forget... So if I'd see the guy I'm with treat me or my friends in a bad way he's pretty much out of the picture.

That's why it looks like it's more important for a woman to respect a man than the other way around

lernulo · Answer

Respect is difficult but not impossible, disgust is impossible.

Anonymous · Answer

I actually disagree. It's difficult, but not impossible. My respect for people has gone back up when I've seen that they've genuinely changed.

Anonymous · Answer

We hold onto shit for a long time and never forget, especially when it upsets us. After that point we lose all respect.

FatherJack · Answer

Yes and it is game over for the relationship.
