The Love Diaries: Background Details 3 About Me and Men

I am extremely careful with guys generally. I have a few "guy rules" designed to help me avoid situations of sexual temptation with men. Most of these are about avoiding situations of being alone with men. I am so mindful that it is so easy to make a mistake with a man that could then completely change the course of your life. When these mistakes are made, many times I'm sure it is not because people have planned beforehand to go too far. Rather, in many cases I am confident that seemingly innocent situations suddenly get heated up, talking turns to touching, things get out of hand, then...something regrettable happens All this might even happen with someone to whom you are not desperately attracted in the first place.
So my "guy strategy" is to avoid even these seemingly innocent situations altogether. I prefer to interact with guys only in public places, during the day rather than the night, where there are plenty of other people. I'm even careful about talking with guys late on the phone, where we are physically distant from one another, and there is no real risk of inappropriate physical contact...
