WHERE ARE THE MEN????

It's been a few months since I've posted here. My life has been a blur. I lost my job of 14 years in February, but God blessed me with a job by March and that job kept me busy 6 days a week for 2 1/2 months. But in the time that I've been separated and eventually divorced, I've had alot of time to think. I am about convinced that there are few MEN left in this world. Sure there are alot of males but being a member of the male gender doesn't make you a MAN. A man won't just SAY what he believes in but he will put those beliefs into action. If a man says he believes in God, then there needs to be some evidence of it not just in his words but in his actions. I also take issue with a husband who says to his wife, "well, whatever you want to do", or, "whatever makes you happy", or, "if that's what you want". That's not being a man....that's being a wimp who can't stand up to his wife and tell her "no" just because he's afraid of confrontation!! I am pretty easy going but I will say that I can be hard-headed and stubborn at times (not often :-D) and if/when I get married again, the man I marry BETTER be able to have the guts to tell me "no" when it's necessary. Sure that may cause a bit of confrontation but at least I know I'm not married to a push-over!! A man also needs to be able to make the hard decisions and not be wishy-washy. He also must be able to have the courage to admit when he does make a mistake. A guy who tries to cast the blame elsewhere instead of standing up to his mistakes is no man. I have alot of respect for a guy who will admit when he's messed up. A guy who doesn't has no backbone.

More importantly, a man will not be ashamed to admit his feelings to his wife/girlfriend, whatever the case may be. Some of us ladies don't like playing guessing games. A serious relationship (whether dating or marriage) isn't the place for such nonsense. So, those are my thoughts for today.
