It's the level of maturity in these individuals. These "girls" or young women haven't learned the valuable lesson of self respect and therefore, will put up with someone who doesn't treat them with the respect and dignity they deserve. They think bad attention is better than no attention. When they grow up, they will have learned that lesson.

That's not the type of woman for you so don't pine for those that are involved with "bad boys". Hang in there and when you're ready the right person for you will appear. Civic organizations, clubs or volunteer work is a great place to meet someone with a common interest, that will give you a foundation for a friendship and maybe a relationship will develop from there. Good luck!

so all your friends and relatives will know why you're not answering the phone!
