While I'm not a 50-50 girl, I give when I can, though I'm not counting dollars, though I've been out with some men who do. They say they feel "used." Why when the economic disparity is so great between me and them. Under that scenario, I think there's something more going on. If only men could communicate better.

I have no doubt you will land on your feet. Seems like you could be selling excerpts from your blog to magazines. I know girls just want to have fun but Cosmo or Redbook or somebody should be interested in a intelligent look at barely getting by. Nobody cares about men who hit the skids but a woman's perspective is bound to be interesting. You are a very clever girl! I have no doubt you will land on your feet.
