What are some of the things that women/men do that contributes to
the breakdown and disconnection between of our relationship with one another?
WAIT!...Before answering and pointing the finger at the opposite sex as we
always seem to do, I would like each sex to speak about their own
faults/issues. For instance...women speak on how WE contribute to the
breakdown/disconnect and Men speak on how YOU contribute to the breakdown and
disconnect. We are always pointing the finger at each other, let's start by
looking at ourselves.
We seem to have strayed so far away from the days of treating one another with kindness and respect to an era where it seems disrespect is not only tolerated and acceptable but also expected. Well I for one miss those days when it was cool to have manners and treat each other lovingly with kindness and consideration. I want to get back to lovvvve! Love for my brothas', love for my sistahs', love for my community and neighborhood. Will you join me? Let's get 'back to luv'.
ReplyDeleteNice blog. I would have to say its two factors. Pride and respect. I think we have to assess the kind of respect we have for one another. This is a learned behavior and we lost the lessons.
Also Pride can be a double edge sword. Too much and you will never admit mistake, too little and you'll be a push over and worst of all not take pride enough to care.
These are the two starting points I feel we can both improve to get the love back.

Wow, this is gonna create a nice conversation. I believe women don't understand their value and look for love in the wrong places. Often times we do complain to one another about how men do this and they do that, when the truth of the matter is we ALLOW it. So my opinion is women sometimes don't know their worth and don't know who they are, or whose they are....figured I'd just throw that in there since this was MY issue.

I agree with Jason and Symone and would like to add that we (men) need to stop letting society dictate to us what is acceptable behavior in the way we treat our woman and just be real with them and ourselves. When we stop trying to impress society, boost our own egos, and impress our boys, open up and be willing to be true to our women and ourselves with our feelings then we become the men that our women need us to be.
