Female Friendship Dilemma
Long lasting female friendships are hard to find these days. Why is it so difficult for women to remain friends for at least half of a life time? In my opinion, the most significant and common reason for a friendship failure is the absence of foundation. “We are friends because our boyfriends are friends” isn’t the most stable foundation for a friendship. You are more like temporary partners in crime with similar goals in mind. After giving the friendship dilemma some more thought and doing a little research, I came up with the following reasons.
Envy has destroyed many female friendships. Simply explained, you have something that she is lacking or missing. Whether it’s a designer purse you bought, a new man you met or a rewarding job you have, she is never happy for you. She always points out the negative in everything positive that happens to you.
How To Live Happy With A Man
1. Don’t overanalyze every word he says. Like for example: he tells you now – both of you are in your late 20′s or early 30′s – that if you were to gain a lot of weight in 30 years, he will leave you. Don’t let that mess up the next 30 years of your life.
2. Give him some space. Try to let him discover some things on his own. This way he won’t lose his mind if you are ever out of town.
3. Be independent. Pursue your own interests. Do something with your friends,or take up a hobby. Note: He can’t be your hobby.
4. Loose your needy and attention greedy attitude. As attention needy as men can be they still fear needy women. If you live his life, who is going to live yours?
5. Don’t look busy. Be busy. Ignoring his phone calls to teach him a lesson can be a real torture. Not being able to pick up the phone because you are in the middle of something very important is so much fun.
1. Learn to work the toilet seat. You’re a big girl. If it’s up, put it down. We need it up, you need it down. You don’t hear us complaining about you leaving it down.
2. Sunday = sports. It’s like the full moon or the changing of the tides. Let it be.
3. Shopping is NOT a sport. And no, we are never going to think of it that way.
4. Crying is blackmail.
5. Ask for what you want. Let us be clear on this one: Subtle hints do not work! Strong hints do not work! Obvious hints do not work! Just say it!
6. “Yes” and “No” are perfectly acceptable answers to almost every question.
7. Come to us with a problem only if you want help solving it. That’s what we do. Sympathy is what your girlfriends are for.
8. A headache that lasts for 17 months is a problem. See a doctor.
9. Anything we said 6 months ago is inadmissible in an argument. In fact, all comments become null and void after 7 days.
10. If you won’t dress like the Victoria’s Secret girls, don’t expect us to act like soap opera guys.
Love Sucks…
I keep hearing and reading the same two words: Love sucks. What happened to love? It seems that we just can’t work it out. A man and a woman just can’t manage to be together anymore. I have been trying to figure out what could be the reasons for the failure of our relationships, and I came up with the following few:
1. We don’t need each other to “survive”. Back in the days, way before Myspace and Facebook and Twitter and, and, and, people needed each other to survive and/or to improve their status. Today, it seems that the other person is more a burden than an addition.
2. Selection, selection and selection. We have too many choices. If one guy/girl doesn’t do it, another guy/girl might. We don’t stick around to find out what the other person is really about. We just keep it moving to the next.
3. Internet and Transportation. You don’t know anyone who lives on your block, but you do know a couple of guys who live across the country. Not only that you know them, you have met them, dated them, and now you are not feeling them. Transportation and Internet made it possible for us to “beam” ourselves anywhere we may think the perfect guy lives.
4. Sex is worthless. Going to dinner has more value than having sex. Back in the good old days when a girl said no, the guy patiently waited for his lucky moment. The lucky moment was the wedding night. Today sex comes before titles, deep conversations and romantic moments.
5. Independent women. Our independency took unexpected turn. Every guy wants an independent woman; hardly any guy knows how to handle one. It doesn’t matter how independent we are, we still need affection and attention.
