How many times have us women said
this? I know at one time I was the
president of this statement. Yet are men
REALLY dogs?
Hmmmm…let’s look at this a little
further.
Some men have opened their heart
to a woman and as a result, that woman took advantage of it. Having a feeling
of vulnerability from that, that same men wants to protect his heart. So his actions makes him looks like a slut,
when really he is trying to stay numb for that experience.
Another scenario is some men may
just fear the word commitment. They may
even tell you this from the beginning, but we as women think we’re going to
change them. Yet what made him like that?
Could it of been his parents’ divorce or being raised by a single
mother? If a man doesn’t want to commit
and you do, um, move on. Save yourself
the emotion and time!
How about that guy that is sweet and
single. He just hasn’t found that person
he feels is the one for him. Yet some
women may take it as if he’s so good, why is he still single? Then they find themselves looking for him to
be that “dog”.
Truth…
When women are saying “all men
are dogs”, what they are really saying is I’ve been hurt and I want to be numb
from it. This is away to protect our hearts. Yet ladies, it goes even
further. Believe it or not, men can hurt
too. They can be doing the same thing we
are doing, protecting. However, they
express it different then we do.
So instead of putting past
relationship experiences on the next on, let us as men and women take time out
to heal, learn, and then move on. Ladies,
let us pray for our brothers to be the best that God met for them to be! Let us heal from this syndrome and have
better relationships as a result.
Stay encouraged!
