I think there seems to be confusion over being a strong woman and being a bully. A strong woman handles the ups and downs that life gives with grace and dignity, picks herself up, dusts herself off and continues on. She doesn't run over men for the sake of proving her strength. Vulnerability seems to be what is missing.

Too true, but in order to be vulnerable, one must be willing to trust as well.

Exactly. If one can't do that, then they have no reason to be in a relationship in the first place.

I've never met a man strong enough to stick around and accept who I am, accept that I could get along just fine without them because they have an overwhelming desire to be needed.


A lot of that is going to be dependent on how many times you ' let him know ' that you don't need him.

It'll also depend on the tone when he's being told that you don't need him.

I am still scratching my head about Kristi's statement about "nobody is perfect"...silly wabbit...of course I am perfect! Just ask me! I will tell you! Don't make me get naked to prove it.



Besides that..I got my hands full with that crazy hawt Aussie chick raiding my fridge for beer while I raise our love child/fetus in a shoebox.....

Let's see you strong women pull THAT one off!

You know I am joking....of course I got the fetus wrapped in a damp paper towel...with Miracle Grow on it...stuffed into a ziplock baggie...THEN put in a shoe box.....

Like I said before....I am very responsible.

A strong woman is not one who thinks of herself as strong, she is appreciated by her man that she is a strong woman.


I have to agree with this assessment, as I never forget how blessed I am to have a woman like this. Devastating albeit heroic though it may be some of the hardships many women, including my own, have faced, they're not the Lone Ranger. That's not said to be disrespectful in any way, it's just to say that in the grand scheme of things, *you* are not the only woman in the world who has faced adversity and come out on the other end with your head held high. With all the detrimental curveballs that my lady has had thrown at her through her life, and she still stands strong, that's what retains my admiration for her. However, what impresses me the most about her is, she knows her limitations. She is very much aware of what she is and is not capable of handling herself, and is not afraid to ask for assistance when she needs it. She has no need to put on a front for anybody, least of all herself.


Wow. How very kind. Thank you! flowers
