[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Assertive men are sexy. Also, because they aggressively seek out a relationship with the woman, they're the path of least resistance. Aggression and assertiveness are often correlated with toxic and abusive behaviors. [/quote]

Men like this are NOT sexy on any level.

Give me a sensitive, articulate man over any muscle man who curses and slams doors![/quote]

It sounds like you don’t have experience in this area. The post before you is absolutely spot on.

They aren’t the ugly side of aggressive and assertive in the beginning. In the beginning they are charming (aggressively pursuing you aka love-bombing) and are assertive (think self-confident, meeting all your needs).

Once they have you then they rip the rug out from underneath you and become the ugly side of aggressive (gas lighting and silent treatment) and assertive (controlling and projecting). [/quote]

This. My abuser is super sensitive and articulate. Later he cursed and slammed doors. He is both.[/quote]
