ORIGINAL: Stephann I'm pretty much in agreement with the bullets, but I figure social skills aren't something that can be found in a book. I was terrible with women till I hit about age 20. I figure it had a lot to do with how I (wasn't) brought up; my dad's the shy submissive type, my step mother's a bitch from hell. I grew up in a small town, and rolemodels were far and few between. Obviously, television's not the best place to learn how to 'be a man.' In short, some men need to learn how to be worth their salt. Stephan Stephen this post shows incredible wisdom, both in your original post and the one written above above. I agree 100% abput social skills being learned sometimes. And as an aside, I was in exactly the same boat as you: I grew up in a small town with few role models, and my dad was a quiet submissive who hated himself. I had to learn a lot of my social skills through very painful trial and error and with the help of some written advise , similar to what you wrote here. -Zen
