Advice for Women

Relationships can be very tough because the sad truth is this: men and women do not think about things the same way. As a woman you need to look at things from both perspectives in order to a) find a mate and b) be a good partner.

Falling In Love

Falling in love is a process. It is a feeling that evolves over time and often comes slowly. You cannot rush love or you will not be in the same place relationship wise as your partner. Men often take more time than women to fall in love. Sometimes, men fall in love without even knowing it. Some women fall in love with men fast and hard.

One of the things to remember when dating is this: do not just date for fun. If you’re looking for a relationship, flings and one-night stands are best avoided. You may be at a point in your life where you realize that dating “just for fun” is one of the reasons why you’re still single. This doesn’t mean you shouldn’t have fun while dating—ideally, dating is romantic, lively and enjoyable. But be certain of your goals and intent. There is nothing wrong with a woman who dates in order to find a long-term relationship. Much worse is pretending you’re just dating to have a good time, when in reality, you’re yearning for a partner or husband.

That being said, many women date the wrong men because they want companionship. With each breakup comes more emotional turmoil. Don’t listen to your “biological clock.” Too many women think they’ll run out of time and they become very clingy in their relationships. This scares men away and makes them afraid of committing to the relationship long term. Take things slowly and really get to know your partner to see what positive things they could add to your life.

Who Should You Date?

Date men that you think would be a long-term match. Never settle for someone just because you yearn to be a wife and a mother. You might find luck in finding someone great to date if you ask family, friends, and co-workers to set you up because they know your personality.

Relationships take hard work and effort in order for them to thrive. Always remember who you are and what you want when you are in a relationship. If you do and your partner loves, respects, and communicates well with you, then your relationship has a better chance of staying strong and thriving.
