Hey ya,I'd like to ask all four of you gents & madames who read this blog to help a sister out. So, could you leave me comments as an answer to the following question?
In your past romantic relationships, what have been things that have occurred that made you mad? I'm looking for a specific such as "saying she'd call, then not doing it" or "he'd tell me stupid lies for no reason, then be defensive when he was caught". Things of that nature and the like. Feel free to list one or many, but try not to repeat if you've seen someone else mention yours already in the comments (unless you'd like to elaborate).
As a reward please enjoy this photo, of a cat that belongs to a friend of my friend Porter, named Mingus. I swiped it without permissions of any sort because I am a toad.
I thank ye kindly.

I had a few boyfriends who were late all the time. And I'm not talking about 10 minutes late. I'm talking about 1h30, 2hours late every friggin' time they were coming to my place or coming to pick me up. It drove me crazy! I find that highly disrespectful.

Thanks Sonia- just what I'm after. Keep 'em coming people!
being too afraid to tell me the truth about how they were feeling. one didn't care enough and the other too much, but neither trusted me enough to be an adult and handle the situations. basically assuming you know me, then making decisions for me without my knowledge pisses me off.
i had a boyfrfiend who moved to another country though he swore he was not moving or leaving me, he did and then he asked me to move there to only tell me after i went for visa hell etc. that he was not excited about me... talk about a bag of thanks a lot!
Love it, thanks pals. This is great.
I am going to recap these so far:
1) saying they'd do something then not doing it (being on time, calling, moving to a country of Danish origin; Not keeping thier word.
2) Making decisions for you, implying you're not strong/smart enough to handle them- this falls under a combo of disrespect/emotional laziness I feel
3) Being insecure and projecting that onto you
Yes? OK. Who else? How about the gents?
Taking my dreams and stomping on them like they were on fire. A dude with a real " I'll believe it when I see it" mentality. Hey! See this? Its my hand ripping off your nutsack.
Dependence or neediness. Being called over to "help her move", and she hasn't arranged a truck or even fully packed yet. Someone always "did it for her".
As a result I always give the third degree to anyone who asks me to help them move.
All of these are awesome.
I feel so lonely - no one has said not sticking up for you to the 'rents! One bf's dad thought I was going to try to punch holes in his condoms so I could get pregnant and steal the family fortune! BF not only didn't act outraged, he told me that his father said that and that he had no reassuring response. Awesome.
But we're still friends. ;)
I will add in: embarrasing me in front of my parents.
I am still, to this day, taunted for bringing over a guy I went on maybe two "dates" with in my freshman year of college who made the fatal error of trying to say some pithy line to my Dad, who had on some random jungle movie at the time. He said: "Ah Tarzan, when men were men, women were women and only Cheetah swung both ways." Terry has never let that one go.
