I thought I'd throw in another post since the last one was me ina bad mood. This is me from a few weeks ago, one not sick or upset that he left his keys up in Michigan! I had this conversation not too long ago with a friend of mine over IM and I thought I'd share these words I shared with her.
My 5 rules of dating (for guys)
1. Be assertive, you're the man in the relationship, so freakin act like it! Women like a man with some confidence
2. Treating a woman anything less than the treasure she is, is not being true to what a man of God is
3. This is a mutual effort, if it's a healthy one, both sides contribute to it and make it fruitful. A one-person effort is worse than being single. It's being single with an emotional weight tied to your neck
4. Never, ever sell yourself short of what you want in a person. If someone doesn't offer you all that you need, but is really hot, get it together! Looks fade! It's that character that's gonna keep you happy to wake up to every morning
5. Relationships are an investment. What kind of interest are you giving and receiving? Is the relationship more of a savings account, or a credit card?
its easy to say all those things, maintaining them is the test of whether you mean it or not...
Make sure you post your comments and things after these wonderful articles! Makes me happy to know people actually read these things!
Rock on, Jason! It's nice to know that there are good guys out there who know how to handle themselves in a relationship (besides my own b/f, of course. Ha ha!). Lucky is the woman who ends up with you. :-)
