Is he a Casanova?

 

Is the man you are thinking of dating a Casanova? Does he bounce from one relationship to another and his excuse is that he is searching for the right woman. Does he look so handsome and some damn fine that you want to be the one to reel him in and change his mindset… tame him so to speak.

Don’t waste your time.  A man like that is rarely ever faithful and the lover that you think he is sometimes  figment of your imagination because in truth he is nothing but a heart-breaker. He may have a lot of women but unable to keep them happy because it is hard for a woman to be happy when she knows she is sharing her man.

If he seems like a player and has been with multiple woman don’t waste your time on him because chances are that he is never going to change. He will take what you have to offer until he finds his next fling and he will keep moving on.

Does he Meet Your Expectations

Does the man you are dating have the attributes that you are seeking in a partner. Is he considerate or affectionate and does he seem trustworthy. Does he have a plan or a vision   for the future. Is he the type who is just  drifter, living for the moment with no thought about tomorrow….yes those types exist.

Is he someone who respects women or does he see women as an acquisition and boasts about his past conquests. Do you share the same values or interests. Do you find him easy to talk to and does he engage in meaningful conversations?

Sometimes at the start of a relationship sparks will fly and fires may be ignited but if you are not compatible it burns out quickly and the fire dies. So to save yourself heartache evaluate the facts in front of you and decide if he is someone you want to take a chance with.

How Well do You Know Him? Image result for free clipart images of women 

Sometime women will get in  serious relationships without know much about the men. This can leave a woman at a disadvantage because sometimes the man is either married or he is involved in another relationship.

Before you get too deeply involved with him get to know as much about him as you possibly can. Your life and your future is not something that you should take chances with. Find out where he lives and what kind of person he is in his community, does he have a bad reputation or is he a respectful citizen. When starting a relationship take it, get to know something about him and then decide if this is the person you want to invest your time and energy in.

Remember that all that glitters is not gold and it is better to play it safe rather than end up being sorry and hurt.

What a Woman Wants From Her Man

What a woman often wants most from a relationship is to have a man who loves, respect, and appreciates her. She wants a man who makes her feel special; one who thinks about her feelings and not just his own.

A woman wants a man who will not lie to her or give her a reason to feel jealous. She needs to be able to trust him with her heart. She wants someone who is serious about her and their relationship and is willing to put in as much effort to make it work as she does. She wants a man who will commit to her and  who will be there for her when she needs him.

Equal rights and justice for all should include equal rights for women. For centuries women have been treated like second class citizens. Things have changed along the years, but the change so far is not enough and women still have to work twice as hard as their male counterparts to get ahead in life.

The double standard is evident all around us. It is easier for society to forgive a man for the mistakes he makes than for them to forgive a woman. Just take a brief glimpse at relationships for example; a man can have multiple partners and it is accepted as being okay – he is just being a man. On the other hand should a woman do the same thing she is considered a whore.

The double standard must stop what is good for the goose is good for the gander. It is time to start taking women seriously and treat us with the respect we deserve.

We did not break the glass ceiling, Hillary did not win the presidential election but the fact that she came this far gives us hope as women that nothing is unattainable if we work hard at it. Yes a small fire burns within us and we hold hope in our hearts that a woman can one day become president of this nation.

We know the road will not be easy. We know that we will have to work twice as hard but I believe that one day a woman will create history by becoming the leader of  one of the greatest nation on earth, The United States of America.

Thank you Hillary Clinton for giving women hope and a voice.

One Sign That he may be an Abuser  “ISOLATION”

A majority of women get into relationships having no idea that their intended partners are abusers.  This happens because you cannot tell that a man is an abuser simply by looking at him.  He often appears to be your regular nice guy.  He puts on the charm.  He wines and dine you and make you feel important.  He says the right words that you want to hear.

However charming he may appear at first be careful and take nothing for granted.  Keep your eyes open for any warning signs that he may not be all that he wants you to believe that he is because he could be an abuser.

One of the first signs to watch for is ‘Isolation’.  One of the first things he may try to do is isolate you from your friends and relatives.  If he wants you to cut ties with your friends don’t for one moment believe that he is thinking of your best interest.  If he tries to keep you away from your family or try to make you choose between your family and him be warned; he is up to no good.  He could be setting the stage for abuse!

When he gets you in a position where you are isolated from your family and friends it gives him power over you because when the abuse starts you will find yourself alone with no one to come to your aid and that is exactly what he wants.  Do not ignore that first clue!

Be Comfortable in Your Own Skin

Society puts a lot of pressure on women. You have to look a certain way have a certain body type and even dress a certain way to conform to the norms of society.

However a strong woman knows that she doesn’t have to do any of this. She knows that her happiness is not derived from pleasing society but instead to have a level of confidence about whom she is as a person so she can be comfortable in her own skin.
