In a recent episode of my favorite TV show, two of
characters ended up in bed together. Afterwards,
gorgeous and highly masculine man turned to
woman and asked, "What's going on here? Where are we going with this?"Her response?
"Come on. I thought I was
girl here."
In other words, a real man should want to avoid commitment like
H-Bomb.
This may just be a scene from TV, but too many real-life women find themselves turned off when a man shows interest in moving a relationship forward. And whenever I relate a story about a guy I know who wants a commitment from his girlfriend, one of my female friends will comment, "He sounds like
girl in
relationship."
Huh?
The thing is,
media (particularly women's magazines, which brainwash us into believing that we have to "get" a guy to marry us) promote
falsehood that marriage is
goal of every female's existence. Men just want sex.
We walk around believing this nonsense, and when it doesn't match up to what we encounter in real life (a guy who really wants to be with us, who is monogamous, and eager for commitment), we automatically assume there's something wrong with him.
The next time you meet a guy, and he actually calls when he says he's going to, stay
course. Don't freak out. Don't assume he's a loser. Go out with him again. Give him a chance to grow on you. Give yourself a chance to decide whether he might be
guy who could make you happy for
rest of your life.
