What Makes Relationships Work

@Deegoddess That is true. I have also tested its effectivity. But as a 40 year old and been there done that, I would've built on being independent first being successful careerwise before exploring on romance.

I agree, but what about the relationships where the couple doesn't have or want kids? Still, women should let the men be the leader and follow. In order for any relationship to last there needs to be polarity, trust, respect, and appreciation. Without those main things, the relationship will be rocky and one or both partners will start to check out.

@yoalldudes that makes sense, even though you want to allow the man to provide more, step up and do more, because masculine energy is doing. If you're not in a relationship and have to do it on your own, then you have no choice but to be more in your masculine than feminine energy. But it's very important to have your own money in case anything happens. Men love to help and make their woman happy, but they don't want to be the main reason for your happiness or you to depend on them for your happiness. Alpha/masculine men love independent woman who are emotionally intelligent, happy, laid back, feminine in the relationship, easygoing, give them space, but allow men to help them, and so much more, I've learned and am learning.

Thank you. ??

@Deegoddess I mean welcome to myLot.

@florelway thank you. I appreciate that!

That too and trust. But men have been hunters and providers since the beginning of time. A lot of women nowadays are very masculine in their relationships and eventually that will cause arguments and disagreements because men don't want to be told what to do, especially by women. A lot of women want to control their relationships and wear the pants. Instead they should be more comfortable in the Feminine role, by trusting and allowing their men to step up and be the man in the relationship and appreciate all his efforts.
