Quote: Self-Control
The thing about impulse control though is that if you are around someone who has more of it than you do they tend to seem quite stuffy, and downright boring. They can also appear weak and timid. Someone who has less impulse control than you can be either extremely frustrating or exciting, depending on the context.
So if you are like so many current young women who have grown up seeing a lack of impulse control as making you empowered, interesting and exciting, you can see where this might create a problem. Nice guys who are in control of themselves are going to seem boring and timid to you…
