What you really need to know about men

Posted on 01. Aug, 2011 in Understanding Men

Ladies, there are still a lot of  you out there that want to know what women REALLY need to know when it comes to men. My goal as The Man Doc is to help you understand men so that you can have stronger relationships and marriages.  Remember, men don’t always wear their true feelings on their sleeves, so you have to learn to recognize their behavior and have confidence in your own self worth.  Here is a list truths I have compiled that I hope you find helpful:

1. If a man wants you, nothing can keep him away. If he doesn’t want you, nothing can make him stay.
2. Stop making excuses for a man and his behavior.
3. If you have ANY doubt in your mind about a man’s character, forget him.
4. Always trust your intuition.
5. Stop trying to change yourself for a relationship.
6. Never live your life for a man before you find what makes you truly happy.
7. If a relationship ends because the man was not treating you as you deserve, then no, you can’t “be friends.” Friends don’t mistreat friends.
8. Have faith in God regarding your relationship.
9. Don’t settle.
10. Don’t stay because you think “it will get better.” You’ll be mad at yourself a year later when nothing changes.
11. The only person you can control in a relationship is you.
12. There’s only 1 ‘reason’ a man dumps you; he doesn’t want you.
13. Always put yourself and your happiness first.
14. Maintain boundaries in how a guy treats you. If something bothers you, speak up.
15. Like from the show Sex and the City, if he doesn’t call, he just isn’t that interested.
16. Know when to cut the cord, don’t be strung along.
17. If you want to have a clue as to how he will treat you, watch how he treats the WOMEN in his family (not just mom).
18. Do not make him into a god. He is a man and nothing more, nothing less.
19. Actions always speak louder than words.
20. Never let a man define who you are.
