My episode on When Men Don't Take Care Of You got a lot of positive listener feedback, so I wanted to expand on the topic.  You can tell EARLY in a relationship that your boyfriend may never put you first.  Signs of selfish, unhelpful behavior are there from the get-go, if you know what you're looking for.  I help you spot these red flags.  Note that if these were evident when you started dating your husband, it can help you have a new perspective on your relationship: turns out he may not have changed after marriage but really was always the same kind of person if you're honest with yourself about it.  I also discuss the quandary many women are in: they want a loving, giving partner but either (a) they think those don't exist, or (b) they are secretly attracted to ass$%^s. What should a woman in this situation do?
