Ladies here are some tips on how to get and keep a good man
I always here and see woman ask the question "Where are all the good man at?" Well if you don't know how to get one then you deifinetly may not know how to keep one. So let me help you out a bit.
From what I gather when you ladies speak about a good man you mean someone who is goal orientated, keeps them selves up (appearance etc) and has no problem with being with one woman. Most importantly he will treat her right.
Let me first start off by using this scenario. When a man shops and goes into a store 9/10 times he knows what he's looking for and will not spend hours, picking things up only to return them to the rack. Women on the otherhand are indecisive and will do the exact opposite. They may touch 40 items in the store to only come out with 2 items.
The above is the same with how we envision what we want in a mate. Alot of women do not know what they want. They may want that dude in their dream and expect someone in real life to live up to an illusion of perfection. So if that perfect, good man you're looking for in reali life is the guy from your dream. I will tell you right now you will be looking and searching a whole lifetime.
Now that we have that out the way let me help you out a little.
1. Learn to keep quiet. Women are emotional beings and live to express their emotions. Guys on the otherhand are more mental beings. So there are times when we like to think, sit back and just analyze. But we can't do this is you're in our ear 24/7 chit chatting.
2. Be patient. Again since woman are emotional beings they are more spontaneous than men, and will follow their emotions. Whereas guys want to check things out and see what's really up before they put themselves out there. We only have one mother in life, so if you start nagging and hounding dude will keep it moving. This is specially so with a man who has a solid foundation and is used to handling his business. He's not going to allow or like a woman who is trying undermine who he is.
3. The world was not built in one day, and neither are a mans goals. You play now and pay later. A man who has his eyes on the prize and is going after his goals will never take seriously a woman who is a slave to the jones's and has to live beyond her means. Her greediness would possibly destroy and undermine everything he's striving to achieve. Men who are striving to be successful have nightmares about women who can't see tomorrow and everything is about having today. Let a man buld. In fact help him build and 9/10 times without you asking he will give you more than what you were striving to get. Men whop are ambitious appreciate a lady who respects who they are and what drives them.
4. Forget talking about it. Men are not like women. All that mushy talk does not ruffle our feathers one bit. We are not gased up by words. You have to show us that you have our back. You have to show him what makes you different than the next woman. A man who is goal orientated did not get this way by being stupid. He understands when something is a betterment to him and when something is a hinderance as well. If he sees you're and asset instead of a liability he'll want to keep you around.
5. Men are men. And women are women. He is as equal in his position as she is in hers. But men and woman are not equal. Women here in America because of social reasons have been put in situations where they have had to handle the mans job. But its not natural, nor normal. A woman 9/10 doesn't choose a man who is weaker than her because beyond words its not the natural thing to do for any female withing any species of mammals, animals or whatever. I understand the womens rights movement, and the sufferage movement. I agree no women should be treated like she is just here to have babies, cook and clean. But to say a woman can do anything a man can do is absurd. Women wear mens clothes and I think it's nuts. If a man walks down the street in a dress, we know he is totally out of place. But with the womens movement there were other things going on like the fact that there was a movement within the movement which were not into men. So how can women who like men follow 100% the same beliefs and ideals as women who would rather be with women. It's no different than heterosexual men striving to follow the ideals of homosexual men, especially when it comes to how they feel about women. How can I share the same views as a man who in some cases and ways thinks he can match up with a woman. I can't do this because it would not make any sense to me. So for you women who think you can do what a man does and find a good man and keep one. If you do find one without having problems, I ask you to seriously take the time to sit down and think a bit. No women wants a man who thinks he can act and do like her. And no man wants a woman who thinks she can act and do like him.
6. Speak your mind, but do it ina positive way. Let a man know where you're coming from and what you're feeling. But do it in a intelligent way without getting all crazy or creating an argument. A man can respect this, and he'll talk with you about whatever it is. You start acting crazy, then he'll start acting crazy.
7. If you get that guy. Build with him. Men are mental beings. And men who are go-getters are definetely mental beings. Women don't want to be bothered with all that other stuff. But if you want that man who is about something than you better want to be bothered b/c his mind is turning constantly, thinking about now, tomorrow and ten years from now. You better get with the program or get left behind.
8. Thats enough, I'm tired. But I hope I helped you ladies out a bit.
