    Poor girl. Tough guys aren’t always tough, girlfriend. Remember this “DUD” when you choose another. Sooner or later someone is going to make him cry for a change.

    I do hope this woman has family (father/brother/uncle) who has enough cahones to step in and take care of this problem for good.
