I agree.  After a lot of screwy relationships (no, not the way you
think <g>), I have finally learned to be real, not to be brutal about
it, but to let a person know just what to expect of me, what I like,
what I want out of life, what I can give.  Unfortunately, this usually
means my relationships are shorter-lived, because even the guys I dated
who say they want total honesty find they can accept it, but not give
it.  I know there are men out there who can do it; I'm not maligning
all you gents, but I haven't found one yet.  I'm still young, though. 
The quest continues! :)
