My experience:

You seldom find a woman who is mature and acts like it. Most of them are hollywood driven little girls who just want to live high life, hear and feel how beautiful they are and see how far they can push your limits.

You need to set boundaries for them and NEVER let them break these boundaries without punishment (not physical, but emotional).
That it just how MOST (not all) of the women work, imho.

You gotta be happy without a woman in your life and gotta be willing to kick her out of your life as soon as see begins to act without respect.

that my conviction to a 100%.
And trust me, I met looots of women. ;-)

Just keep yourself more important then her.
