[quote=Anonymous]Hm, I'm a daddy's girl, and here's how it played out for me:

Spent my teens thru mid-20s assuming all men were like my dad, and that even when they sucked, they would eventually turn around and be a better man. Very short relationships, most under a year, because I would dump them when they didn't turn things around.

Mid 20s-late 30s, lowered my standards because I realized most men aren't like my dad. Had multi-year relationships, including a marriage, but still ended all of them because I realized I won't be happy with someone who doesn't treat me the way I want to be treated.

Late 30s, realized I am much happier single than with a guy who doesn't meet the standard my dad set. VERY happy time being single during this period.

Now at 40, I've kept extremely high standards for men and did find one who is of the same caliber as my dad. He treats me like an absolute princess. I'm extremely happy in this relationship, and it was well worth waiting until age 40 and going through all those breakups.

People seem to think being single is the worst thing a woman can go through, but it's not. Being single is infinitely better than being with a man who can't meet your standards.[/quote]
