Why are there women who can get from men (and from life) exactly what they want and need and women like most of us here, myself including)who would spend so much time and energy figuring out what some asshole wants and analyse his unacceptable behaviour for ages instead of kicking his ass the moment he makes her feel bad?
I spoke with a very successful young woman today with a wonderful career, 3 children and a devoted husband, who told me she dated 2 men simultaneously just to find out who of them was right for her.
Any thoughts?
I used to wonder the same thing. Then (at least for me) I figured out that its not about the man but me. When I started giving, doing and treating myself with the same level of integrity, love and respect I wanted and needed from my partner that's when they seemed to give me what I wanted. I set the standard and example and if they wanted my time they followed my lead. And just to add, no one gets everything they want nor do they have the perfect life. Even those women who appear to have it all have to make compromises along the way. However, as long as they don't compromise their own self worth in the bargin, the adjustments that are necessary to maintain a level of contentment and happiness in life can be accepted and managed in an "effortless" way.
