I also dated a self centered man. Always watched the movies he wanted. Never went anywhere I wanted to go. It was all about him. Of course I got rid of him. He didn’t care about what I wanted at all.

It’s great Dodie that you realized how important your needs were too in this relationship. So many women self sacrifice their own needs for a man’s just to have someone in their life. I give you a lot of credit for being able to let go of what was no longer working for you. Hope your out there dating again.

Excellent post, yep, in the first case, he may well cheat and if his marriage was so awful, he should’ve done the necessary work to get out of it BEFORE taking up with another.
The second scenario sounds a great deal like a narc/ control freak. The one time I attempted to date a local, it was the same thing; violent movies plus trying to force his love of guns on my pacifist and academic self. This dude has no idea how women think, what we like or dislike or does not care.
