5. My question to you is:
Why have you not dumped him ALREADY?
There are simply too many fish in the sea to settle for someone who is obviously so very different than you are.
I don't believe that right wingers are born emotionally hardened. It is a learned trait that they develop from being around other right wingers who are already emotionally hardened.
RUN!!!!
In case you overlooked this part:
he’s rich, I’m not

6. I couldn't stay with him since he is self-centered and only cares about his family and friends.
He has a dark heart.
Whereas it's a rare DUmmy that is concerned about their family. Hell most of them are alienated from their family.

9. I don't know why you would
ask a bunch of strangers on a message board (even a Dem one) why a man they have never met is the way he is or why you would be with someone you seem to dislike everything they believe.
I doubt beyond the advice to leave if you find his beliefs so reprehensible you can get much real insight. Maybe some professional help would help you to understand yourself and your attractions.
As to why a generic right winger thinks the way they do, the reasons can be a varied as the people and any opinions on it here would be just that.

11. Why hasn't he dumped you if you're so different?
What a DUmmy. Free nookie. It goes like this: you date the tramp and marry virtue.

16. Some women go into relationships thinking the guy will change. Either they'll help him see the light
Edited on Fri Jul-22-11 12:13 PM by KittyWampus
or all he needs is time.
Recipe for disaster.
I suppose the dynamic might play out in reverse- guy thinking he'll change the woman but I think the first case tends to be more common.
Read this and try and understand it.
Women marry men hoping they will change
Men marry women hoping they won't
Neither get their wish.

17. he isnt all wrong and far from being kinda right.
the problem i see on du, is that we cannot explore this kinda thing in honesty.
yes he was lucky, and had help. was lucky in being born with high IQ and has a lot of things in life going for him. and stays consistent to experience, by wanting to help you, recognizing he, too, got help. that is how he is able to do it for you.
i know so many people like this man. and i am able to love them.
just is not hard for me.
My wife is a member of MENSA. Once a year or so, they have a survey that the member fill out. Where you live, education and what do you do for a living? That kinda stuff. Most of them have normal jobs like butcher, baker and so on. Very few rocket scientist.
For the record, while my wife gets the MENSA magazine every month, my magazine subscriptions are Handgunner and Trailer Life.
