Reply #5: you can give advice if they ask

but some things have to be learned the hard way.

Its not just young girls who have bad taste in men. I know a beautiful woman whose 3 year marriage ended at the age of 27 when she gave her husband a choice between herself and cocaine- he chose the cocaine. Every man she dated after the divorce offered her drugs... instead of flowers and candy. The selection process seems to be hard-wired. She isn't attracted to any of the clean cut, hard-working, decent men who ask her out- they're boring. She's 38, only likes guys with real rough edges. Go figure.
