Real Men

We all know someone who has been in a relationship with a bad guy. They've been either physically or emotionally attacked, sometimes even both. Many women refuse to leave the bad relationships that they are in because they're afraid, not necessarily of the man. . . but afraid of being alone. Relationships shouldn't consist of putdowns, beatings, and cheating. If they do, get out! It's as simple as that. Though I understand that's easier said than done. Find a real man! Someone who knows how to treat a woman the proper way.

Determining whether or not the guy you're interested in is a real man can be rather tricky. Being 20 years old, going to college and having a career paying job does NOT make him a man. . . as much as I hate to admit it. It's SO much more than that.

He's a real man if:
He can recognize when he's wrong, admit it, apologize, and move on without making a big deal about things.
He isn't afraid to show his emotions.
He doesn't try to hide you from his friends and family.
He tells you how much he appreciates you.
He is always honest! No matter what.
He can remain faithful without a second thought.
He doesn't pressure you into doing things that you don't want to do.
He can sympathize with you.
He shows focus and dedication in all that he does.
He wears pink.

Obviously I was kidding about the last one, but you get my point. He shows you how much he cares, and isn't afraid to tell others. If the guy you are in a relationship with fits the description above, he's a keeper. But if he doesn't, you might be dating a man child. How can you tell?

He's a boy if:
He puts you down.
He doesn't support your dreams.
He won't make things official.
He runs back to his ex, CONSTANTLY!
He puts his hands on you.
He cheats on you.
He lies.
He tells you the sweetest things, but pretends he doesn't know you in front of his friends.



If the guy you're interested in fits this description, the best advice I can give you is to drop him. He's not worth the time and effort, and sure as hell doesn't deserve you. Don't get a relationship with a guy who has the mindset of a child. Believing you can change a guy is the biggest mistake in the world. You aren't anything special to him, and he is guaranteed to hurt you hurt you!

The sad thing is, 45% of "boys" will never mature into men. Not really 45%, I just made that up. The percentage is probably higher actually. Anyway, they think having multiple females and treating them however they want will always get them somewhere, but eventually it'll catch up to them. Whether it's 10 years from now, or 40 years from now when they're all wrinkly and old, it will bite them in the ass.


Just refuse to worry about it! Plain and simple. Silly childish boys aren't worth getting emotional over. Drop them, and move on to a real man. You'll be 13820 times happier. Promise.
