I had a weird experience with a Turkish man.

I am A Western woman in my early 40's and recently had an extremely bizzare encounter with a Turkish man. He was well-spoken and clean in appearance.

I thought he was quite attractive at 6 ft 3 and dark and handsome. However, when he spoke he lacked any emotion and when he did speak, it tended to be either questions or orders....when I finally asked him to stop he said. "I want you to be my wife" and "Tell me you love me".

This really freaked me out...but the worst was yet to come.....he said "I want to spit on you"...so it was good bye and get out of my sight.

I wonder where this need for domination comes from?

What culture disrespects/hates women so much that they want to defile them so?

I am a very open person and no one can change that. But I will be cautious about who I date from now on.

Thankyou for your comment.

Jo.
