It's called hijacking... it's a long and proud tradition.  Once you get past 2 pages, it's the exception for the thread to still be on topic.

If your thread HASN'T been hijacked within two pages, then no one loves you. You ain't no one 'til your threads are hijacked!  :mrgreen:  :lol:

It's really the women that wear the pants because ultimately, the man will get horny at some point and cave in to any demand she wishes.

This is false.    Women enjoy - and need - sex just as much as men do. They can usually just control themselves better. Any woman who plays the "I withold sex" card for manipulation purposes isn't worth unwrapping a condom for. I've never had this happen, but if it did, she would do it once and once only.

You are only at her mercy if you allow yourself to be. Men need to be men and not little boys looking for a place to put their pee pee. A real relationship involves meaningful and mutual intimacy and satisfaction.  

You're correct and I've never had it happen to me, either. However, I know PLENTY of relationships where this is true. And, I do realize that men need to be men and not boys looking for a place to stick their pee pee, but everyone needs it at some point in their lives!

There are only a few automatic-relationship-enders in my book, and using sex as a weapon or bargaining piece is one of them.  The second the guy or girl does that - end it.  Cus it's over.

Even the horniest guy can keep it in his pants for a week - and if she's still holding a grudge after a week, and using sex to punish you? Move on.

My 2 cents.

Other problems as they arise and how to handle them according to the great Phaedrus  

You forget her birthday / some other important day / you really screw up - On wait, you DIDN'T forget because you were proactive. You have a nice gift for her hiding in your closet ahead of time for moments like this. Whip it out - the gift you frockin sicko - and surprise her with it and she will melt at your thoughtfulness.

Her sister is totally hot and is flirting with you - Uhhh. I'm still working on a solution to this one. Luckily, I am out of that situation but I've been there. Didn't really handle it too well.  

She checks out other guys when she is with you- I've had this happen ONCE and only once with a girl I was dating. We were out to dinner with her sister and her sister's BF. This muscular, jocky looking guy walks by and her and her sister both give him the elevator eyes. The sister's BF sat there like a doormat. I'm not so passive. I looked at her and was like "What the hell was that?".    She said it was "just a reaction". So I had "a reaction" of my own; I stood up from the table and threatened to go tell the guy "Hey, my girlfriend didn't get a good enough look at your ass the first time you walked by, could you do it again?". She was very embarassed and promised she would never, ever do it again. We broke up a few months later on good terms, but in the rest of the time we were together she didn't do it again. Sometimes you have to draw a hard line and let her know she needs to respect you, just as you should be respectful and courteous of her. It works both ways, and I would never demand something of myself that I would not do myself.
