Maybe you're the one who is depressed? My ex took a lot of women/time before he realized the common denominator was...him. Then he worked at fixing that. His new wife (who is in fact at the healm of a fairly large company and quite successful) is one of the most joyous, bubbly, well-liked, not-depressed women I've met.
I only have depression since the incident with my father. But my last gf also had depression because of her situation. I felt sad several times for not being at my best to help her. Be she really needs therapy. She just won't accept it. She's ruining her life because of the past. But in my 5 years relationship I was ok until 3 month before we break up, that's when I got the depression. But she was always careless about everyone. That's what made us break up, I was in a fucked up situation and I couldn't count on her to support me.
Don't date just anybody. Develop your mind to where you can see more about what people are like, early on in a relationship. This is how men become CEO's, btw - they are able to size people up.
That is true. Maybe something is blinding me in the relationship context?
I have one issue. I try to help people a lot, but usually people take advantage of you after... I keep making this mistake and I keep getting screwed. Being from STEM then you have lots of people asking you favors sometimes abusing it, but when it's your turn to ask, they all flee.
Recently I've been betrayed by a coworker, who I had the chance to fuck him up later (I was lucky) and unshit myself. However this is not the first time, and sometimes I feel that one needs to be a cruel bastard in order to not be used by others. I have been further away from becoming a cold cruel bastard, but there are a few people in my life who keep giving me faith on people... We'll see.
It is not me stating that there are few women at the top.
It is just the truth. And I can't seem to find any logical reason for this, as in my ecosystem I never saw anyone oppressing women to avoid them reaching to the top. More the opposite, we have tons of events for women, like women in engineer day. But I also don't agree with these events, they are treating women like if they were some "special" species, I dunno. I would feel offended if I were a woman.
