The Way To Be A Woman
Maybe it's time to stop believing in fairy tales and happily ever after.
Finding a life partner, someone to love who will love you back for the
rest of your life is a tricky business. The problem is that most women
are brought up on the notion that it's supposed to be easy,
it's supposed to be magic, and it's supposed to last the rest of your life.
Maybe that's true in the beginning...but for it to last the rest of your life,
it's going to take a lot of struggling.
Ask the people in long-term loving relationships whether already married
or simply dating, and you'll find that even they suffer emotional setbacks.
Arguments can crop up, jealousy can ensue...and temptation can get to
the best of both men and women. There really is no happily ever after...
in the sense that you can lie back and believe that you will beloved and
vice-versa forever. It's not impossible, certainly, it can happen...
when two people put their minds to committing themselves to their union.
We all have to recognize our own respective weaknesses.
Girls have to realize how vulnerable men are to temptation(especially if he
lives in L.A. with Bobby around and you're in S.F.)...and they have to be on guard.
At the same time, they should also learn that no man is worth losing
their own self-love, respect or esteem. Being with someone
can be a wonderful thing, but not when it is at the expense
of one's own self-worth. Stick to your guns, girls.
Accept only the best for yourself and nothing less.
Don't be like these women who have said the following:
"I don't want to leave him, because we've been together for so long"
"He doesn't mean to hurt me. He just has a terrible temper.
He's very sorry afterwards"
"I felt he could change for me...so I gave him the best years of my life."
Game Plan For Your Life
It's certainly time for women to start taking charge of their own hearts
and to accept once and for all, that most of the time, men will be jerks,
only if we women are dumb enough to let them. Sad to say, even in
these contemporary times, based on what I've heard, there are still
too many women willing to be that foolish.
Does this mean we should be cynical and cold, and believe that
all men are rats and deserve to go to the sewers?
No, of course not.Love is still a wonderful thing. But falling in love
shouldn't mean losing your mind. A woman should still keep her
wits about her. She should also realize that love can last a long time,
if only both men and women are willing to work at it...
harder than they ever worked at anything.
