Hey Itsallfun,
The thing is - that isn't really true. It seems like it on here, and when guys write it up, that's how it seems.
But talk to the girls - they all have ton of dudes who want to chat them up about their life story. A ton of guys who want to hear how sob their story is,and feel like a white knight by 'rescuing them, and if they spin a sob story - the dudes will give them money, time, help, rides, even cars!, etc., lol.
So, it often pays off for a girl to take that route.
......
Also - then there are others who just can't shut up if you paid them more....
