Search Results: i respect you

I was always told this growing up. I used to believe women understand men better then vice versa. But not anymore.

I believe women understood men better in earlier times out of necessity. They used to depend more on men to provide and protect them. It was important for them to understand men they wanted to get in a relationship with vs. those to avoid.

But in modern times women seem far less concerned about understanding men. Not that I expect them to naturally understand that. But one thing they seem to struggle with is understanding the difference between likeability / attraction vs. respect. Men actually crave respect more then they crave sex, intimacy, etc.

It’s possible to still respect someone even think you don’t like them. It’s about understanding their situation and what they have to deal with. And truly men generally understand this concept far better then women do.

One example is when I broke up with my ex girlfriend. At that point I was no longer attracted her at all. Can’t say I liked her much either. But I still respected her. I knew about her struggles and dreams. That’s why I gave her the respect of sitting down and breaking up face to face. Endured 2 hours of hell (screaming, crying, etc.).

But I don’t regret it. I didn’t fixate on her flaws and chastise her over grudges and things I didn’t like about her to self justify my decision (I’ve had women do that to me when I was dumped). I had enough respect for her that would just add insult to injury.

To marry a girl you have to accept this:

Girls are far less agreeable than men. Like my girl won’t even move in with my parents (we have a mansion) just for 6-12 months until we can afford a really nice home.
It’s usually men negotiating around the wife like she’s some boss.

Girls use their emotions and tears to manipulate and control men.

No girl kept their legs closed. Do I need to say more. It’s sad.

You even see girls on hen dos disrespect their husband on their nights out. The respect for men has gone.

Women love the kids 100x more than any husband so you will be the first that gets thrown under the bus in hardship.

Marriage/divorce is still a legal contract like it was in 1960s - so in a breakup the woman gets the kids, money, house everything.
Girls are mean they’ll use guys and spit them out. They take everything in divorce.

It sucks for men because it’s either that or be single. So we are forced to make a bad option. Men are forced to be a simp or be single forever. That’s such an upsetting decision to have to make.

Men only get married to make the woman happy, we don’t care about it.
