It's long past time that all the guys here stop blaming others for their own problems. Whether it is an individual or a group of people or an entire gender, the fact remains that the problems are our own.

There is a subtle difference between discussing an issue that might involve gender differences and outright blaming an entire gender. I, for one, say that women just don't like me. But you don't see me blaming them for it. I've long since stepped up and accepted that I'm unlovable; I'm the one with a problem, not them. I can also freely admit i have a bit of a jealousy problem, and I feel bitter at those who are fortunate enough to be able to get into and manage a relationship, but again, it's not their fault i'm unlovable either.

It's time for those of you out there that blame others for your own problems to man up and accept this. I know it's hard to do that, but that's what distinguishes the men from the boys (or the women from the girls, whichever your case may be).

If there's anyone out there using a dial-up connection, that person is probably cursing The_Face_of_Boo while plotting against his life...

Lebanon has the worst internet connection in the world, just before Burkina faso.

So I am the one who should complain about my post :lol:.

In bold, the pronoun "you". Could be seen as directed towards the previous poster. But, since English is not my native language, I could be mistaken. Anyway...

FLAME ON!
