Doc Love: Men, Stand Up For Yourselves In Personal Relationships

This dating advice column on AskMen.com examines the problem of "marital fraud," and how men have become easy pushovers for women in the dating game. One reader writes in with this horror story: Fifteen months after buying a house (of which I was the sole mortgage holder), six years of marriage, and two toddlers, I arrived home from work one day, only to be arrested on phony domestic abuse charges. (In my state, this is the only way she could have me removed from the home). This was done with the full support (both emotional and financial) of a meddling mother-in-law. And with the prospect of a fairly large divorce settlement dancing in her head, she was even quoted by mutual friends as being "better off financially without me than with me!"
