Damn, I went a few pages back and remember being an avid poster in this thread at the start of it.
I'm married now and happy to be out the game, but gottdamn if reading some of these stories does't bring back memories.
Im on the brink of entering my mid-30's reading the stories and talking to my younger cousin(in his early 20's), I see the scenarios never change, might be worse these days with social media.
Here's how I see it- We all get burned while we are young because we are just gaining experience. Feel the burn for minute, put the ego aside and realize it's just a life lesson learned. Trying to be in line 100%(hell, even more than 75%) with someone who didn't grow up with you is impossible. Therefore, we all will run into silly situations dealing with the opposite sex.
I will admit to spending a lot of energy in my 20's on women. But in hindsight, it's just kinda filtering and finding the things you would accept and things you see you just don't gell with ultimately(after smashing in some cases). That leaning stage is just un-avoidable. As I've gotten older and met more people, I've been able to put ego aside and accept somethings about my wife that used to be a big deal when I was younger, but in the long run it really isn't.
Changing jobs or locations can always help to experience new things and people.
