"There are some questions about men that only a guy can answer. We asked the dudes at guyspeak.com (read more about them here), for their take on this dating conundrum: Q: Why doesn&amp;#x27;t my boyfriend stick up for me? He never has. Like if a guy was to try and start a fight for me, he probably would have nothing to say. He loves me, but even last weekend his friend grabbed my boobs and all he could say was, &amp;quot;I can&amp;#x27;t control him, no one can,&amp;quot; when we were in private. WHAT? That is so not okay. I&amp;#x27;ve never been in a fight in my life, but if one of my friends did that to my girlfriend I&amp;#x27;d be on him like a zombie on sweet, sweet brains. My fists would reign down with a fury. I&amp;#x27;d get all Mortal Kombat on the dude and rip his spine from his body while yelling &amp;quot;Fatality!&amp;quot; Also, that person would no longer be my friend. What I wouldn&amp;#x27;t do is shrug it off. I certainly wouldn&amp;#x27;t say, &amp;quot;Sorry he molested you, honey. That&amp;#x27;s just Gary!&amp;quot; What is this crap about no one can control his so-called friend? What he&amp;#x27;s really saying is that he&amp;#x27;s a complete wuss and is afraid of his friend. He&amp;#x27;s also saying that his own safety, and his friendship with this doucherocket, is more important than you. Why would he remain friends with a guy like that? You need to dump this guy. It&amp;#x27;s only going to get worse. This guy&amp;#x27;s lack of a backbone puts your personal safety in jeopardy. What else is he going to allow? If you can&amp;#x27;t count on him to stand up for you and protect you, it&amp;#x27;s not a real relationship. You don&amp;#x27;t need to be with someone who picks fights all the time, but your guy should have your back if someone gets in your face. And he certainly shouldn&amp;#x27;t shrug off the fact that his psycho friend felt you up. Allowing something like shows he doesn&amp;#x27;t really care about you. At the very least, he should have yelled at his friend and then never spoken to him again. What sort of a man allows that to happen? If he really loved you, he would have stood up to his friend. Dump him and find someone who isn&amp;#x27;t a spineless weasel. --Written by Nick Nadel for guyspeak.com Does your guy stick up for you? Would you dump him if he didn&amp;#x27;t?
