writes:Can sex be SO great for guys that it is worth being treated poorly by a girlfriend? One of my guy friends has a GF who treats him like garbage -- she's always hinting for gifts and spends a ton of his money, she complains that friends of his have better bodies than he does, and she goes on and on about how he is really lucky that she doesn't cheat on him, because she could if she wanted to. She just seems really disrespectful and respect is so important to me in my own relationships that I don't get how he can tolerate this from a girlfriend.I was discussing it with a mutual friend, and he agreed that it's difficult to see why our friend stays with this girl. But then he told me that I'll never understand how strong the power over a man is when he's getting really amazing sex, and that a guy can overlook A LOT of things when the sex is great. Is this not even a guy thing; have I been missing out on ridiculously awesome sex that would be worth all manner of awful things?

I bet you he has low self esteem and stays with her because he really believes that she's the best he will do. I'm sure she is terrible. Be a good friend though, and just be there. Hopefully he will see the light at some point.

 Different strokes for different blokes. Some guys like being mis-treated. Some are just afraid to pull out of a relationship. It's like the guy who continues to work for a job which he hates, but which pays him well because he's not sure he'll get another one.
