The Real Reason Why Every Man Isn’t Husband Material
Letting people go is a part of life, whether that letting go happens through death or the figurative death of relationships.
I believe it is dangerous, but also extremely emotionally damaging, for women to continue to search for boyfriends and husbands in every handsome man they meet. This idea that these women are not at all at fault, not only for their romance addiction but also for their intentional mismanagement of their feelings to the point where they end up hurt over and over again, is a falsehood. Wanting to fall in love is no valid excuse to act childish and stupid in a world where women are literally being murdered on first dates.
I understand that many of us were forced to grow up too fast as kids, therefore we didn’t receive the innocent childhoods we believed we deserved. As adult women we want to make up for that lost time by trusting men way too quickly so that we can revert to little girls who are shielded by the harshness of adulthood as quickly as possible. And I am here to say that falling for anyone too quickly will get that ass tagged. But you probably already knew that already, as life has taught you many lessons already. I can certainly attest that life has stepped in to punish me for my foolishness many times, and I can’t blame its intervention.
