Men take not of the above interaction. When we men make ourself a little scarce the women come running
So our political beliefs reflect our core beliefs. Interesting. How far could we take that? I feel the title of a great book coming on.
"Want a great lover, Love a Libertarian"
or
"Liberals lack Libido"
OK so sorry, I'm crackin myself up. I guess it's good I can entertain myself.
Great day with W today. We went and looked at houses. Not in the market for one, just having fun. She had a great time and was in a great mood. We had planned on working at least a half day but blew it off and hung out. Good stuff.
So for days she's been hinting at what she talked about in T. Little mentions here and there. Sounds like her therapist basically told her she had some anger issues. She thought I'd get a kick out of that.
I did.
So today we're talking and she's been leading up to the fact that the T told her to go buy a book. I casually and a bit indifferently ask about what. So she tells me "It's a book about how strong women are always percieved as bitches and then they give in and become doormats and get angry about it, story of my life"
So we talk a little about this. I suggest that she define the phrase "Strong Woman" and that might help her in her desires.
W "Like me" M "Well try to define exactly what it means to you" W "Oh you mean I'm not" M "No, it's just that if you define it better it might further you towards your goals" W "Nice cover" M "It's not a cover, it's just that when asking a question like that it's often beneficial to examine the question"
moments of quiet
W "So it's called Dance with anger" M "sounds interesting, I'm reading a book you might like also" W "I'll put it on my reading list"
The convo was light hearted and good. We are actually moving a bit towards intimacy I think. I told her something about me the other day that she didn't know and she was very curious (Fear of drowning yet I grew up on the ocean and love nothing more than being by the sea) She thought that was very curious considering my likes and wanted to talk about it and for me to explain it.
So she's opening up to me a little too I think.
So I just checked out the book at Amazon and the full title is
The Dance of Anger: A Woman's Guide to Changing the Patterns of Intimate Relationships
Ok so that's sounding pretty good.
I think it's a little on the bra burner side but it definetely seems to be pro marriage. It talks about having a strong I so we can have a strong We. A concept I definetely subscribe to.
My natural instinct was to argue against anything that came from the evil C but I didn't.
Any opinions from the girls on what it means to be a strong woman?
Thanks for finding me BJ. Hope your weekend in Canberras was great.
