I'm not independent bc I followed advice, I'm independent and strong because I had to learn to fend for myself being unsafe around men. I had to fight grown men from a very young age physically and emotionally & was frequently humiliated as a little girl just for being born female. Every time I was hurt & abandoned, I grew stronger. <br><br>When a man wants me to need him, he needs to take time to grow trust, he needs to show me he's physically and emotionally safe on a consistent basis. Do things for me from the heart and not wanting things in return. Receive gracefully what I give him from my heart. <br><br>It's ridiculous that growing strong & independent after so much adversity will be held against you by men who can't comprehend what you went through to become who you are. 🙏🌺<br><br>Edit: To everyone who reads this, please remember that no matter what you went through, YOU ARE ENOUGH ❤

In my life I've witnessed many men who ridicule women for being emotional. Perhaps that's why women assume men don't want to build emotional intimacy.

This man is a genius. I felt a huge relief after hearing this. My whole life I thought that maybe I’m too needy for wanting all this, but it turns out that it’s actually the healthy way.

I could have used this when I was in my 20s! I ended up getting pregnant with the wrong man from settling! Lived most my life in survival mood and always wished I was able to have that man that would make me feel safe! Now 44 and kids out of the house and I am more knowledgeable, which now is the time for me to find my person!

Many of the men I meet do not have the career and the means to support a family. Unfortunately in American society, women have to work... it's sad our society has come to this, but a one-income family just doesn't cut it anymore

Listened to this video with my boyfriend & he confirmed & agreed with the points discussed here. Its crazy how many things we don't understand about opposite sex. Thank you for everything you do to educate us.

i grew up with a bunch of men and my older brothers basically beat it into me that men don't want a "needy and useless" woman who asks for/ wants/ needs anything, that she needs to be fiercely independent etc....<br><br>yet they both ended up with women who won't even fetch their own glass of water or ask him to flip a light switch for them and scream in terror and run for them at a mosquito buzzing by....

I told my husband “if you don’t pay the rent and we get evicted I am leaving you.” He thought I was joking. I left 🙃
