Why You Can't Have or Keep a Quality Relationship With a GOOD Man, Pt. 2

YOU Set the Standard

There's something inside us men that makes us want to test the boundaries and limits of our relationships with women. Maybe we're looking for the same unconditional love we got from our mothers. Maybe we just want to see what we can get away with. See how much rope we have. We do it early, and we do it often. We probe. We take note of the responses, and we draw a bead on what we can get away with.

This is your opportunity to set the boundaries in a place where you will ensure you will get the respect you're looking for and deserve. This is your chance to set the parameters for a relationship that's healthy for both parties.

And this is where most women totally blow it.

Respect is Commanded, not Demanded.

Think on this: In the interactions between women and men, women have home field advantage. Whether asking for the first dance at a middle school party, up the intimate act itself, we have to come to you. You have the last right of refusal. No consensual interaction can take place without your say so.

That's tremendous power, but most women don't use it effectively.  Because we have to play in your sandbox, you get to set the standard. Most of you set the bar so low, we don't have to aim very high. Remember I told you that men are motivated by action and a sense of accomplishment. Give us something to shoot for, and we will. There's nothing so attractive as a woman who knows her worth. A GOOD man will try to be accountable to a standard of treatment such a woman sets, as well as his own personal standard. The ball's in your court, boo.
