Buff: It must be very tough for men to know that they are going to have to take this on. I hope they understand that they don't have to do it alone. If they are willing to step up, God will be right there beside them. And more women than you may realize will be there to cheer them on. It would surprise many men to know how many women are thrilled to see a man be a man and take the lead.

I get stressed just thinking about it. I'm expected to make a lot of money, be a good father and husband. I'm expected to not make mistakes because my respect is at stake. I'm suppose to always know how to handle any situation. And I suppose that is ideal but I'm not perfect and I will make mistakes... I just wonder if women in general are understanding of those mistakes.
Hence, I'd like an easy-going lady... not a mother hen watching me up and down... expecting me to be perfect.
Women have it easy because... they can look forward to being taken care of while... men look forward to being taken care of. Actually I like the idea of taking care of a woman though.
But, yeah... its one I just thought of.

I think it starts with little goals first buff.. It is overwhelming .. For both parties looking at the whole picture .. I think it's about starting a plan (the foundation ) and taking small steps together on how to get there .. Its the journey together .. God ultimately brings both into His perfect will of where it goes ..

I dint ever think a man should be as stressed as you feel.. ever..people should allow god to build them up in their confidences and we should be pointing out strengths instead of weaknesses.. It's the weak parts both pray together in and fir one another .. God being the strength Wich brings both courage to move forward .. We get stuck in problems because both sides lack dojng this .. just my thought ..

She does expect you to have a good work ethic. She also doesn't love you conditionally (according to what you can give her) or view you with a critical spirit. Just a little something to keep in mind...
B
Yeah, I suppose your right about doing the little goals.
I think there's more to think about for me to completely agree with all that. Like, I've been thinking about edification. And it seems to be okay to point out weakness but from what I remember. It should be a mutual agreement to look at those weaknesses. Thanks for sharing your thoughts.
NOTE: I'm gonna stop replying about stuff about me... the thread is going off topic. Not being mean... its for the thread.

There are a lot of attractive women that get attention, but that isn't the same as love. Wise men would avoid an attractive, troublesome woman. And many men will avoid attractive women, even if they aren't troublesome. It could be a matter of intimidation or something else.
Guys don't have to be confident, funny, tall, strong or earn a decent salary. Those attributes would be quite helpful. But they would be helpful for a woman as well. And I rarely made the first move when I was single.
I'm 5'11" and I have a number of friends who are under 5'8". They have always faired much better with the ladies. In all honesty, they had to work for it. And I'm not as aggressive as they are. They recognized their height as a disadvantage, but found ways to compensate.
I was very shy when I was young, but I worked my way past that. I was a scrawny kid, so I started working out. I don't make much money. But my wife likes that because I can't afford to go anywhere.
Work with what you have and you'll be amazed at the options you'll see before you. And here in the U.S., the odds are in your favor.

Ok..I'm gonna answer this one blindly & from the gut..I only read the title & Jullianna's initial post..I have not even skimmed through anyone else's posts...lol for all I know I may have already posted on this thread...lol
Women have it easy because...
no matter how absolutely horrific your personality is or how much you let yourself go physically,some guy out there (man not be mr. right or a dreamboat)...but some man will find you acceptable enough to date or marry you..or at the very least have a one night stand with you. I have seen this time and time again in person,on tv,in articles I've read...within the church,all over the secular world...so in my mind this seems to be a plain & simple fact.
Now,with that said...
if you consider that an "easy" thing to live with..or a "blessing" ummm...ok,well..
Other than that I don't see how women have it easy at all.
This belief or sensitive outlook may only come because I was raised by my Mom alone for awhile as a child after my Dad split,so maybe seeing all the responsibility she had to take on laid the foundations for how I feel in this area.
Another reason may be due to some of the women I grew up around or one's I had as friends in my teen years that help shape my view on just the sheer insanity of utter nonsense women all over the world have to deal with.
It's mind boggling! I would have seriously blown my brains out if I had been born a woman...hat's off to those of you who fight the good fight & have not caved into what the world says you should be or act or think like.
And christian MEN....take heed...YOU BETTER LOVE & HONOR & CHERISH & LET THAT WOMAN YOU ARE WITH KNOW THAT SHE IS A BEAUTIFUL AMAZING BRILLIANT QUEEN SENT TO YOU BY THE ALMIGHTY GOD & DON'T FORGET IT!

Women have it easier because we're forced to deal with our emotions regularly, so they are less likely to live inside us undetected like little sneaky mind vermin. They come out our eyes in the form of tears instead, and society doesn't try to shame us out of crying (I find this unfair).
We aren't too macho to ask for directions, so are less likely to get lost? lol
We don't have to shave our faces.
Because we're super awesome at catching frogs and bugs.

but for a woman its got some distinct disadvantages. I am 6 foot and its the way I am...but I shall never be a 'sweet old lady' who needs cared for...aahhhh my mother was 4 foot 10...and we used to have heated (fun) discussions regarding the way society viewed those of different sexes & their height. So, all i can say, there is not much we can do with what we are given except accept it, know we are fearfully and wonderfully made and that it really is what is in between our ears and in our hearts that count Thats what is attractive...not looks and height. God Bless you , small, tall & middling!! <><

I'mma let you in on a little secret.
No one is perfect, everyone makes mistakes, and no one has ever been a perfect husband or father.
Also, this is the worst kept secret in the world. But the world, and women in the world, will convince you that what you believe is the truth. Maybe your family will even work hard to convince you that they've had the most perfect marriages and careers and they've NEVER been clueless about what to do or that they've never EVER made a wrong decision or NEVER EVER hurt anyone or done anything wrong.
They're lying.
You learn by making mistakes. Either a person who has had a perfect life has never learned ANYTHING, which doesn't make them particularly wise...or their pride is more important than the truth.
If the Prince of Darkness isn't making you grouchy in some way or shape...if there isn't some part of your life that needs work or improvement...then he doesn't see you as enough of a threat to spend any time trying to make you stumble! ^_-

I didn't read any responses cause I'm selfish and only care about my own opinion. Plus I don't care for the simple fact that I don't think women have it as easy as guys. They get plagued by creeps, feel the need to pretty themselves up, and can be subject to their emotions easily. I would hate being a woman, they get a raw deal.
