Remember way back when, when girls couldn’t knock on a boys door or call them, the boys had to come to the door and respectfully request to see the girl. The boy also had to call her; there was no stalking from the girl or manic texting. Some things should still be in practice. It is in the nature of the male species to hunt and somehow we have taken that away and made it too easy for men. Don’t get me wrong; I am all for going after what you want, because things have changed. It is possible to give the ok signal to the man, even approach in today’s time and then retreat and let them begin the hunt. If you do everything for him, why would he find it special? Why would he appreciate you? Even more, if you do everything in the beginning, you will be doing everything throughout the entire relationship and you will be cheated. Don’t give too much too soon, ladies even as a married woman he likes the hunt every now and then.
That is so true and this concerns me as a mother of 5 very handsome young men. I constantly try and tell them about the importance of respecting and honoring women. The conversations the eldest share with me from their female counterparts are shocking!! I believe it all boils down to self worth. The bible tells us we are more precious than rubies... but society has us brainwashed not to believe it. Women believe the hype of only one man to 5 women and go crazy. What is designed for you is yours. A woman should develop herself into the best she can be, and then that man will seek her out!!!
ReplyDeleteYour point is well said and so true. Self worth is a learned behavior and an experience. I love myself because my mother and father did. I respect myself because my mother taught me too and I am believe myself to be special because of my parents as well. I am with you in raising the boys to be respectful of woman; as well as themselves. I have had many conversations with them in reference to the young girls of today and I too am surprised. I stay in prayer because society has woman and men misled.
ReplyDeleteThank you for your thoughts
