For women only. Have you ever accepted a man as your boyfriend even if you NEVER liked that man?

Question

Have you ever accepted a man as your boyfriend even if you:
-NEVER liked that man?
-felt disgusted by him?
-were ashamed to be seen with him?
And (this is more IMPORTANT:) why?

If "yes":
-at what age?
-would you do it again?

How about dating such a man (or boy, whatever word you like), for many times, but having no intention of accepting him as your boyfriend, please answer the same questions in that case?

Please write your age.

annie your answer is appalling, try harder next time! Goodbye!

I wanted to ask if you would date a man even if you didn't like him from the beginning, from since you saw him the first time.

Answer 1

nope i've not gotten to that stage in my life, but i intend on when i'm older and into my career......
i'm 19 right now

Answer 2

Yes.
I dated a guy for 7 months when I was 17 years old. The only reason I dated him was because he liked me, and it seemed that he wasn't going to go away unless I gave him a chance.

At first he was really nice. (That was in the first 4 months).

He smoked to be *cool*. Thats one think that disgusted me, and along with that he had the most horrible friends. They would get him in trouble purposely. And he also had anger issues.

Not only was I asshamed to be seen with him. In my mind the whole 7 months I knew I could do better. I was asshamed to be seen with him simply because of the fact that everytime we stepped in public people who knew me would give "the look". And I knew that thought that came through their heads.. "Are you serious?! You can do so much better."

Well around the 5th months I was so disgusted I would critisise him about everything he did. I turned into a VERY critical person. We would get into huge arguements, and one day I decided to walk home from school with him so that I could talk to him in person. All I remember is that I told him he should some what of what people think. And that he should make NEW friends. Well as soon as you know, he punched me in the face.

He was jealous, he wasn't nice, he was a fighter, not a lover, he would do anything to ruin your day, and I have NO CLUE why I stayed with him. I don't no why.

I don't regret anything. I am stronger, mentally, physically, and emotionally. I WILL NEVER, get into a relationship with that person EVER again. Or with any man I don't feel comfortable and happy with.

Answer 3

I'm 23 now and parts of that are true for me. At first, I like him, wasn't disgusted by him, was proud to be seen with him, etc. Later in the 2 1/2 year long distance relationship, I began to see flaws that I had a hard time dealing with, but it having been my first relationship (from age 19-21), first boyfriend ever, I wanted to last as long as possible, so I put up with a lot just to keep it going, which in retrospect was a mistake. Now, I don't see what I ever liked in him, am disgusted by him, and am ashamed that I was seen with him, let alone spent so much of my life/college career with him. I wouldn't do it again for a million bucks (well, maybe one date for a million, to pay off student loans, pay for grad school, etc), and am glad to have cut ties with him.

Part of dating someone is finding out if they have qualities in them that you want in a boyfriend. I would date someone that I was interested in, but if I determined that they weren't boyfriend material, I would be clear about it, and if they were okay with being friends and hanging out anyways then I'd keep hanging out with them. Dating is all about getting to know people, and it's a plus if you find someone that is compatible with you romantically!

I'm so interested to see what answers you get, because I have a feeling that some of the younger generation may be less than honest with some of their answers. To be honest, when I was in High School, I wanted a BF so bad that I'd have gone out with anyone (and sadly for 2 1/2 years I did, once I got to college). I'm just glad that I went through that and grew up from it.

Answer 4

i'm 13 and when i was 12, i had a boyfriend, all cheak out.
-NEVER liked that man? yes
-felt disgusted by him? yes
-were ashamed to be seen with him? yes
And (this is more IMPORTANT:) why?
i was ashamed to be seen with him because he's almost a foot shorter then me.
i became his girlfriend for 3 reasons. 1 i wanted to make someone else julious and see if he liked me. 2 i was on a dare. 3 i never had a boyfriend before, so i took the first guy who had the guts to tell me he liked me.
( i regreat it, especley the part when i broke up with him after 3 months.)

Answer 5

YES! We all have done this one some time in our life, so dont
feel bad . MEN do it all the time for what ever the reson is for them. I did my when I was 30 I just broke up with my B/F and didnt want to sit home a lone anymore so I went out with this
guy we will call him A . be cuz his name begain with A would you
do it again NO!!!!!!! becuz I was ashamed to readly be with him
and I went place;s that Iknew my freind would not be and that;s
hard to keep doing . So what is your story Mummmmmm?????

Answer 6

NO, the only reason a woman would do that is if she can't hurt anyone's feelings, is being pressured by someone else, feels bad for you, or is really really desprate for a trophy. Sorry if that happened to you. I'm 17

Answer 7

No because if you are not attracted and never liked him then what's the point? I think better of myself than that and so should you. age 39 Take care Heather

Answer 8

Nope I have not gotton that desprate yet.

Answer 9
