Hello to all at Greekchat,
I have enjoyed reading all of the replys, to a certain extent I feel that a woman can drive a man away.
Do you all remember the movie "Soul Food"? Vanessa Williams played the character who was a prominent Lawyer. All throughout the movie her husband constantly tried to get her to spend time with him and to see his band play, but she was always "busy". Also whenever he would share with her his desires musically she criticized them and nagged him. I imagine that left him feeling unloved and unwanted, anyone worth their salt would get tired of that.
Let me first say that I am not "Mother Love", and no one needs to be so gullible to just fall for "game". You should never compromise who you are fundamentally just to say that you have them. Nothing is worth that, no Man, no job. Nothing. But, if you are constantly play the "hard to get" role and never have time for your significant other- you come across as being conceited and you become just that "hard to get". You then become undesirable and they will leave your "Strong and Independent" self ALONE.
Remember "What you take for granted... can be taken".
