Relationships today are more complicated than ever. With increasing technology, dating on a global scale has been made possible. If you are left in the dust wondering why he did not call, or why he has ditched you for the third time this week, just remember: it's not you, it's him. Men are often thought of as confusing by women, however, they are often very straightforward. Finding Mr. Right is all about finding the one who will sacrifice to be with you and can not picture his life without you. Here are five painful but true facts about men:
1. If he does not call you, it's because he does not want to talk.
As women, we often make excuses and justify him not calling when he promised he would. In reality, if he honestly wanted to talk to you he would find the time to do so, even with a busy schedule! If you are truly a top priority in his life he will make you one and pursue you. If he does not invite you to go places with him, it's because he has no intention of seeing you.
2. If he treats you poorly, it's because he does not care.
Any man that deeply cares for you will not treat you poorly. A man who has your welfare in mind will do his best to be a gentleman and treat you with utmost respect. Respect is as equally important as love is in a relationship. If a guy does not respect you, then he obviously doesn't deserve you! He should speak to you in such a way that even others enjoy listening to him. You should not have to sacrifice your self respect in any relationship. If he can't respect you for respecting yourself, move along! He's not the one for you.
3. When he says, "I'm not ready, but you are the only one I want to be with, but now is not the right time," he does not want you.
If a man wants to be with a woman, he will do so whether the timing is ideal or not! If he is truly invested in a relationship, he will want to be with you without excuses, without lies, and without complications. If he truly wants to be with you, he will recognize your worth and fight to be with you everyday of his life! Love does not have an ideal time-frame or a convenient time to happen in. If he "needs time to think", you don't mean the world to him... move on.
4. Pay attention to how he treats his sisters or mother!
The respect, or lack thereof, that he gives to his mother or sisters says a whole lot about a man. Chances are if he was not raised to respect his mother or sisters, or any woman in authority over him, he will not respect you also. A good relationship between a sister and brother or mother and son is a pretty good indication of how he will treat you in a relationship. Men are what their mothers made them!
5. A man cares about you more than he is willing to express.
Often times men find if hard to express their feelings! If you are having any doubts about a relationship, the best thing to do is to ask him to honestly tell you how he is feeling. This gives him an opportunity to say the things he was too shy or nervous to say before. If you are feeling left out or unwanted in a relationship, make him aware, he may not even realize it! The best policy for any relationship is honest communication with each other.
In a relationship you should not make excuses for him. Stop justifying his excuses and put yourself first! You DO NOT need someone who fails to see your worth or does not know what they want! You deserve a man who acknowledges your worth and is willing to fight for you each and every day. Stop breaking your own heart with high expectations for someone who will not be as good as you expect. Giving yourself an opportunity to be with someone who actually deserves and respects you is the way to go!
