[quote=Anonymous][quote]Not in a disrespectful-towards-women way or anything. Just sort of argumentative, brash, condescending in an argument, hits below the belt in an argument occasionally, etc. And very arrogant, though I think that is a way of covering up his insecurities. I just have never met a guy with this combination of traits (mentioned just now) + the cockiness and impatience with feelings and stuff that he seems to show. [/quote]

I've dated a lot of military guys and am related to a good number as well.   I used to idolize military men (having such good family role models  :lol: ) but after my brothers joined, they were quick to disabuse me of the notion that all military guys were good guys.  They aren't.  After dating a few, I realized how right they were.  You can't lump them all into the same category.  They're individuals and their characteristics are their own, not the military's.

From what you've posted, I see all kinds of red flags that have nothing to do with having served in the military.  Frankly, he sounds a lot like a guy I was seriously involved with who turned out to have narcissistic personality http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Narcissistic_personality_disorder .  He could be extremely charming and mesmerizing but the arrogance and insecurities/anger were just toxic.  I'd tread carefully.[/quote]
