People often think that because of the way I choose to conduct myself – always working – that I don’t value love. This couldn’t be further from the truth. I’m probably one of the most “hopeless romantics” you’ll ever meet. I love being in love. I love being with someone I love and experiencing life with them. The only difference is that I won’t devote my entire soul and being to a man and give up everything else along the way.
1. I’m sick of society allowing men to work hard, but not women to work hard.
If a guy was working hard, women everywhere would praise him and think he’s “husband material.” But, if a woman works hard, there’s “something wrong with her.” In a world in which woman are not equal, I will work twice as hard to earn my share – until one day we are equal, but, that could happen long after I’m dead.
2. I don’t need to be taken care of.
I will never live a life in which I rely on a man. And I don’t need someone to buy me things, pay for me everywhere and wipe my a** for me at the end of the day. I want to make my own money and treat myself to my own things. When I get something myself, I feel better knowing that I’ve worked hard and earned that, rather than someone else getting it for me.
“Be careful when falling for a close friend; it can work out perfectly or blow up in your face”
You and I have always been the perfect match. Let’s be honest, we get each other so well and the physical attraction between us is still as fresh as it was when we first met each other and became friends. At this point, it’s ridiculous to me how we’re not enjoying the perks of being in a romantic relationship. Why is it so hard for you to accept that we can’t be “just friends”?
