9 THINGS WOMEN NEED TO KNOW (AND PUT INTO PRACTICE) ABOUT MEN

Rating:
Quality: (Quality: Unrated)

In introduction:  This is not meant to be offending.  It is a statement of my opinion and should be respected as such.  There are too many lists putting down men and placing standards on them on how they should act.  It should be noticed that there are almost no lists that men have made saying the same thing to women.  Well now it is time for the tables to turn, and for women to hear our side.  That is the root of the problem:  You must realize that IT WORKS BOTH WAYS.  Let's continue....

Also note:  If you are going to reply and not be civil, please don't waste my time.  I'm open to replies, and if someone's going to tell me I'm wrong, they better do it the right way and be smart and sensible.  And if you reply PLEASE proofread your response.  Reading misspelled and poorly written grammar is tiring.  I would appreciate that when you reply, you know what you are talking about.  Also, please don't tell me the woman's side UNLESS it is relevant to what I have written.  This article is about what the title says it is about.  This is the man's side.

  On to the list....

1.  Love works both ways. Relationships ARE NOT one sided.

If you expect a man to do something for you, you should do something in return out of kindness or thankfulness (this doesn't always apply to where men want to do something special because we may not even want something in return in this case).  Relationships are not one way.  It is true that men and women have different roles and play different parts, but I find that it seems women expect men to do all of the work. For example, do all the calling, do all the paying, do all the chasing, and other special treatment. 

2.  You should not expect us to worship you and treat you like you are a goddess, princess, etc. (but you should expect us to treat you respectfully and right)

Men do not get into a relationship to worship the counterpart (nor should women)  Worshipping your partner is unhealthy.  Loving them is not worshipping them; it is so much more than that, so please do not expect a man to treat you like a goddess, because you are not a goddess.  Human beings in general are imperfect.  If you are a woman that expects to be treated like a goddess then you are missing the point of true love.

3.  We will do special things for you but you should not make us feel guilty when we don't.

Doing the sweet things that the guys in the movies do is totally at our discretion (except valentne's day etc)  Just because one night we wanted to cover your bed full of rose petals and then the next week not do anything at all doesn't mean that we stopped loving you.  For this reason, you should not make us feel guilty when we don't do special things like that for you.  We don't do them because you tell us to in the first place, anyway; we do it from our hearts when we want to, so why should it be your say, and why should it be a crime when we don't?  It is also nice to have a woman do something really special for me in return.  I enjoy that.

4. You should never play with a man's heart (I'm not implying that you should play with a women's heart.  This article is about what women need to know about men, not the opposite.  There are plenty of those)

A man's heart is something that does not have a lot of support from the world.  It is broken and confused because it is told not to have a say in expressing itself through emotion.  For this reason, you should try to be understanding of it and not play around with it. A person should never be used, manipulated, or played with.  Just because I have the ability to go 185 miles per hour in a speed zone that is 65 doesn't mean I should because it could hurt someone. Just because you have the ability to seduce a man does not mean you should use it in a way that is going to hurt him. And don't forget Men don't necessarily lack the ability to seduce a woman

5.  You should not only realize that men are really different from you, but accept it.

It is not our fault we were made to be the way we are (just as it is not your fault that you were made that way either)  Instead of condemning the fact that men tend to not understand things that women do, accept that it is the way we are meant to be and that it is better off that way.  Instead of condemning a man when he isn't' as talkative on the phone, accept that maybe he doesn't find it interesting, and that's ok for him to feel that way because he's a man.  He's not built to be so talkative.  Accept the fact that men want things to be told like it is and don't want to be playing games all the time.  It's how we are made.

6.  You should not expect us to play games all the time to "win you over" (even though it works)

First of all, playing hard to get can be fun for us to chase after, but it is not fair to expect a man to ALWAYS make the first move. (Yes we should make it more often, but not every single time)  When we are the first to act all the time and never acted upon, it becomes one-sided, and that is not what a relationship is about.  A relationship should be two-sided.  If we are interested in a woman, we do not appreciate playing games to win a prize.  You are not a prize to be won.  A man will only chase so far until he realize that he isn't getting anywhere, and gives up.  You should expect us to give up because you aren't doing the things you are supposed to be doing  in return to let us know where we stand. It is unfair to expect us to win you over by playing games and risking ourselves, if you're not going to do anything in return and maybe risk yourself too.

7.  We care about you, we sometimes may not be as expressive or just have different ways to express it, and you should accept that, not condemn us.

This doesn't need to be explained.  It is clear what I am trying to say just by the statement itself.

8.  There is NO perfect guy.

Honestly, there is no perfect person.  If a man loves you, he will still disappoint you and hurt you and a woman will do the same to her man.  It is a part of life.  Just because you have a disagreement with a man doesn't mean he's "not the one".

"No man is worth your tears and the one who is won't make you cry"

This quote is a lie that is believed by many women (seeing as I get many forwards containing it)  IT IS A LIE.  Even the man that loves you the best way he can will still hurt you.  He doesn't love you any less.  There is no perfect man.  There is no perfect woman.  There is no perfect relationship.  Accept a man's faults and move forward.

9.  If you're an independent woman, I hope you know what you're saying.

If you are a self-proclaimed "independent woman" then don't expect us to treat you like a queen, or goddess.  Goddesses don't need men to do things for them like open doors or pay for dinner anyway.  You can't say you are independent and then turn around and ask for the car or ask for dinner or ask for money.  It's a double-standard that needs to be solved.

Thank you for your replies.  I hope you women will take a lot of this away so you can please your man and be pleased yourselves by understanding him better and having a good relationship with him.
