My reply was actually based on a case wherein the guy is too proud in the relationship. So, I said knowing how to handle his pride is essential in the relationship. I'm not saying he should bend backwards for everything the girl wants him to do because damn, I wouldn't want that.
My comment in the spoiler is quite the opposite of what I was saying in the earlier case. And I think the spoiler comment can be connected to your comment, which in my opinion, has a theme that supports the fact that some girls do abuse a guy's tolerance.
But we both agree that the bottomline in here is, guys are usually proud. And some girls can be too. So, ladies and gentlemen, pride is a very delicious chocolate milkshake so it's best to swallow it.
