To Man, Love Woman

Women are not impossible to understand, all we truly want is security, a sense of emotional, financial, physical, attainable, everlasting, consistent, security. When a woman says I love you to a man, what she means is, “I feel safe with you, you make me feel like I am untouchable and nothing and nobody can hurt me…” but when we do that, the only person who can really hurt us is the one we said “I love you” to. The humor of irony... or more like the heartbreak of it.
As we allow ourselves to free-fall, we become vulnerable and permeable to however the man treats us. The chemicals of our brain stops working realistically, and we become “crazy” for lack of a better word; our whole being becomes paralyzed wanting just to be surrounded by the security a man offers. Even the most independent women still seek to find that security in a man.
Women are not all the same, we all have different ways of dealing with things, some are romantic, others idealistic, some are too attached, others are too aloof, some are realistic, some are bold and some seek too much attention. And where do I stand in the midst of all this? … May be I won’t say, and leave it to those who really know me to think of the answer.

So men, yes we do know we are crazy sometimes, we do know we are demanding other times, and we play games and we give you the silent treatment. We cry and we bitch and we like to be showered with romance and affection. We talk expecting you to just listen, and when we tell you we don’t care silently we mean we really do, and when we ask you if you love us, it’s not being insecure it’s just we love to hear it. We are giving you a piece of us; we are basically giving you the keys to our heart and just asking that you treat it with care because in your hands it is fragile, in your hands it can break, bleed and beat.
