Hi Frank, I just wanted to add one thing. And this is from a man’s point of view but it needs to be said. Women like men who are strong, confident, take charge and make decisions. Being “in control” of their lives makes a man very attractive. Few women like men who are indecisive or doubtful of their abilities. Women like leaders.
Is that sexist ladies? I hope not, b/c men like women who are secure in themselves and who share as an equal partner. Men like women who are self-confident enough to allow us to lead knowing that you are there to help us should we stumble or fall. Knowing you will provide the input necessary to help make good decisions.
That is very different than the parent-child relationship I discuss above. Totally dependent women cause us to try to live up to an ideal we can never achieve. Dependent women are not self-confident – just the opposite. And they are not there to pick us up off the floor, b/c they do not know how to – and believe me there is not a man on this earth who has not had his nose in contact with the ground many times. And low self-esteem means running away – taking the easy way out – and then blaming everyone but themselves.
Thanks for the post Frank. It makes much sense to me.
