In regards to men, its always been my philosophy that we teach them how to treat us... whether its a booty call, *************, serious dating, marriage, whatever... many times as women we don't really speak up when our needs arent being met. Many times we grow up believing that we are to take care of our men, make sure they have 3 hots and a cot, yet we are walking around miserable. Maybe this is why Im solo right now...LOL
I think its all down to society really,not your immediate surroudings, when I was growing up my mom is a firm believer that a man is to take care of the family. And my father did, My grandparents same way. Also my mom let everyone know when she was not happy with something, i was exposed to this all my life. Yet when I met my daughters father, I was the one kissing his a** making sure he was happy and he had no concern for me at all, but in the society we live in, keep your man happy and he wont cheat/leave, this is my 20 something friends talk, bull freaking crap!!

Here's my take on it. The man is the one who should be responsible...take care of the household kind of thing. That's how my (soon to be ex-wife) her father was. He took care of the household. Mind you in this day and age it takes TWO to handle the house. It should be 50-50. Maybe I'm not making sense but I'm trying :)
 
In today's world you do need to be a couple together and by that I mean work on things as a team not a one person show anymore.

You are right about this day and age... it takes two to make the household work financially, emotionally, everything... I think where many of us falter is that we look to one to be ALL of this and the other to be ALL of that... or, in my case, to be ALL in ALL, and he just puts a dent in my couch. LOL.

i agree it should be 50-50. not one way more so than the other
 
ok, so here's the big question...if we all agree that relationships should be 50/50 and there should be respect and it takes work....why are we not in them and why do we seem to find the ones that don't get it??
 
Diva I wish I had that answer but sometimes you need to just accept fate and let it happen when the time is right for you not when you want it to happen.I wish you best of luck finding your prince though.:goodvibes
 
All is right with the world!!

My reason is because I am not wanting the broken promises and everyone I tend to meet is all charm and sweetness at first and then they turn into monsters, i guess i am too trusting and naive at first

I wish I knew the answer. I've been single for the better part of the last 6 years and can't figure out what I'm doing wrong.
