funny yet sad!

I was having dinner with a female co-worker and her "significant other" She's a very possessive AND needy woman. This man doesn't even like her, but somehow she's infatuated by him.

Anyway, we are all sitting down enjoying our meal. And she says something to the effect of "maybe he'll marry me..." To which he replies "I'll never marry that bitch!" And she laughed it off...I was more insulted by his comment than she was!

Why do women put themselves thru this type of treatment is beyond me! Regardless I thought it was "funny yet sad"

Maybe, sometimes, women need the proverbial billy club over the head to get the point. And hopefully his choice of words hit home.
On the other hand, why does he go out with her?
Are they planning a trip to the DR soon?

Did this happen in the DR? Hope so or you know what's coming.

maybe the fact that she's so needy blinds her to the fact that he really doesn't like her.

Women enjoy the abuse. They keep coming back for more.

Aw, c'mon, CC, this is not exclusively Dominican by any stretch of the imagination. Just watch any US daytime talk show -- Jerry Springer, Oprah, etc. -- and you'll see plenty of these cases. For that matter, watch "Laura" or "Cristina" and see the same thing in Spanish.

whoa what kind of a woman would take that kind of disrespect. nevermind she must have really low self-esteem, but this is definately funny but sad.

Rubio, your friend has very low self-esteem and she's looking for love in all the wrong places. She should learn to love herself first. She needs therapy, pronto.

By the way, I didn't think that was funny at all. What is he doing (just having dinner?) with a woman he obviously doesn't respect or even like?
