When I was in college, I read a book that changed my life. It was Susan Brownmiller's tome, Against Our Will: Men, Women, and Rape, which explained rape as an act of power instead of just lust. What I found particularly chilling was the chapter on war -- how rape is used to terrorize a population and destroy the enemy's spirit.

We have all heard of book phenomenon 'The Rules' where we are told that women should never return a mans calls, never look a man straight in the eye on first meeting and never, ever to accept a date from a man for a Saturday if he asks later than a Wednesday.
But does the game of love really work? Are the rules fact or do they actually drive men away?

Okay, so I've seen seeing this guy for about 4 months. I had gotten out of an LTR a few months before I met this guy so I wanted to take things slowly. As a result we only saw each other once a week for the first 3 months and lately we've been ramping it up to about twice a week. At the beginning, things were a bit crazy. Since I was dealing with my breakup, I didn't handle some situations very well, and there were a few times I thought that I would never hear from him again, because he was rightly upset at me for things I said or did. After the last fight (about 2 months ago) I realized that I really like this guy and if I want to keep things going with him, I have to shape up. So I did.
Fast forward until now. Things have been consistently good for a couple months. But, as this weird after effect from early on, every time we have any kind of misunderstanding - literally a misunderstanding - I feel like "Oh no, it's over!" and I have anxiety that he's going to leave. These misunderstandings aren't fights - we don't fight. They're more like me saying something and he takes it to mean one thing over another. Then I try to explain what I did mean, etc.
The thing is, logically, I know I shouldn't feel this way. When he first told me he loved me (a little over a week ago), he said he'd been feeling it a while but that he didn't want to scare me away. He asked me to spend Thanksgiving with him. He asked me to go on a trip with him this winter. He calls me up all the time, and sometimes we still talk on the phone for hours. I mean, all signs point to him being really into me. I'm only the 3rd person he's ever said "I love you" to (other than family), and we're both in our early 30s.
So why the anxiety? What does it mean? And how can I stop it? I feel like it negatively affects our relationship. I feel like now that he loves me I'm just waiting for him to stop loving me. It's really quite sad. Not sure what to do. Any suggestions are appreciated.

Believe it or not, there was a time when women used to "sit by the phone and wait for a guy to call." That was a bummer. Now we live in a hyper-communicative fog of tweets and texts.

The pressure from the ‘Twi-hards’ must be much less now, because they clearly all love you?
Robert Pattinson: “There’s never been any pressure from anywhere I don’t think. Other than right from the very beginning, before the first film came out.

Once upon a time, Joe Lieberman was interesting—not always correct, in my view, but interesting. He was interesting because he thought for himself. On most issues, most senators line up pretty automatically with their party.

Hello everyone looking for some help, I have been with a man for 4 yrs things got bad between us and i broke up with him we weere apart for a few months and got back toghter. I am no angel I have hurt him as much as he has hurt me.That was why i broke up didn't think it was right to hurt each other every day with words or how we treated each other. We talked and got back toghter,but the old hurts jumped right back in. We started fighting basically every day.He has told me that nothing i do is enough then calls me names and that was why i ended it before.He fights with me about going out to clubs and i think it is crap becuase he fights with me about going to get milk.
