[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]Would this be a red flag to you:

Incredibly bad childhood (primary caregiver alcoholic, divorced 6 times):

Guy I'm dating says:

No connection to a single former step Fathers, no sadness
Found out about one divorce when the real estate agent showed up, no emotion
Moved for a new parental marriage after getting into a prestigious school (TJ) and couldn't attend, no emotion
Etc...

Accepts everything as "yeah, and...?" Won't even admit or acknowledge that those are painful memories or experiences. Denies any emotion. Claims totally over it and has moved on. Red flag?[/quote]

He told you all this (how else would you know?) th[b]en when you want to talk about it, he says, yeah and...[/b]? Lots of problems. Why take this on?[/quote]

It isn't his job to educate her on Shitty Childhoods 101. If she wants to know more, she can read a book and quit poking him about it.

If she can't do that, they should break up. She's not a good match for him. [/quote]
