Does A woman Need A Man? I Mean Really, Really?
Or Am I Being Weak Here?I, for one need a man. I paid too high a price for my so-called freedom and independence which I start to detest when I’m lonely and in need of support and appreciation from a MAN.
Freedom and independence sound great but what would you be willing to give up for it?
When I was going through that painful divorce , the thought of being free and independent was such a comfort. I told myself it would be nice to be free again, live my life the way I want it, do what I want, cook what I want, come and go anytime and wherever I want…and I’m doing all of that now. 
The truth is, I’m not proud of it, I’m unhappy and I feel such a huge void inside me when I’m alone and no one to talk to and cuddle with. 
I’m in a long distance relationship and I’ll be lying if I say that I’m happy and content with exchanging messages, photos, naughty sexy chats and exchanging comforting words over the phone with someone living in another country and just meet up for long weekend every few months.
The truth is...It sucks! 
I miss having a man beside me, to talk to… and argue with every few bad days of the month, the same man I will rely on when things fall apart, same man who will make me feel protected and tells me all will be OK, same man who will make me feel desirable, wanted and needed . I miss having someone who asks me how’s my day, when and where did I go, what will I cook for dinner and will ask me “what’s wrong ?” when he sees the troubled and unhappy expression in my eyes
I’m not looking for a super man. Just like me, he doesn’t have to be perfect, just MAN enough to understand the imperfect woman in me, the crazy silly person in me , love me for who I am and can meet me halfway
He has to be someone I can share everything with and could bring out the best in me so I could accomplish my role as a woman
Someone who can do a bit of fixing and carpentry jobs will be a bonus…and of course he’s got to be cuddly and a good kisser
. Am I asking too much? I hate the thought that I could be living a single life for the rest of my life.
. I would prefer to have a man beside me and grow old with him. Does that make me a weak woman?

Let me put it this way: Would you like to be needed by a woman? Would that make you feel good as a man?
Awww! There there.
That's just perpressor. And you might be going threw that Change of life, thing...
Just do what Stella did!
Stella went and got her grove back!..
But I'm not like Angela Basset...I'm just me
and you haven't answered my question yet...
We all fell in love and have shared life with someone we love, have experienced that happiness just by being with them...it's such a shame that things have to fall apart at some point...worse part is feeling that you didn't give it your best shot to keep it together.
Thanks!
Am I being crazy now?
I wouldnt say you are a weak person in wanting to have a man around, what I would say is, is that, when you have a man around (believe me it will happen) just remind yourself from time to time what it is like to be single so that you may appreciate the benefits of having someone in your life.
In my opinion No you are not.
You have wants and needs like anyone else.
Thanks, I have thought about that...I think I could do that
Thanks, that's another good point. I will remember that every time I pick a fight with him and before I say the words " I want to move on"
I guess that makes me normal then...
How often do I answer you?! Besides when we talk privately in the mail. But Beside!.. I agree with many comments to you on the blogs now. So! Why say the something that! They already have said...
Want.....yes.

Yes, I've noticed some people are too arrogant to admit their weakness...they can live alone. Some women are tougher than men, they don't seem to need a man anymore. Well I'm not one of them. As a woman, I have weaknesses...this is the part of me that needs the man. I believe a man needs a woman too...he's got weakness that can be considered as his woman's strength too.
You're evading my question...do you need a man, I mean really, really?
In what sense?
Does that mean you can live a whole life without a man?

CC,
I guess that makes me normal then..
Yes ,CH but why be normal then you would be like everyone else.
I told someone once when they mentioned the word 'Normal'.
I replied back and said that I didn't want to be normal cause then I'd be like everyone else.
Maybe! Just maybe one day soon. Something do get old.
That's a very good point...
The world is going crazy, seems we don't know the meaning of the word "normal" anymore
We all get old...everything gets old. Wouldn't it be nice to grow old with someone who would still see you as the same gorgeous woman when you were younger?
Sure! As long as it's not drama...

Angel,
We all get old...everything gets old. Wouldn't it be nice to grow old with someone who would still see you as the same gorgeous woman when you were younger?grin
Obviously this wasn't meant for me but..... Obviously some folks aren't that lucky for that to happen.
They say Nothing Get Old. But! Clothes.
And the 50's is the new 30's. And the 60's is the new 40's.....
So! No one will be getting old with the clothes. Then that will make couples, growing younger together!...
Boy! I can see my lover & I, in the clubs doing the Good Foot and the Twerk!..
So are you admitting that tiny weakness now?
Life is like a drama...it's boring and tiring sometimes but it is what it is...full of drama and you can never get away from it
of course it's for you too...
and yes some folks are not that lucky....but maybe it's just the way they want things to be and nothing to do with luck at all?
Good to see you...
"right guy" but how right is the "right guy"? He have to be this and that for you to consider him as the "right guy"...does he have to tick all the boxes?
50s as the new 30s, 60s as the new 40s...and now where does that leave the 40s and 30s?
I feel like dancing from time to time but no one to dance with...now I start to feel like stupid taking a video of myself dancing and send it to him!
Snap Out Of It!...
At least a slapping hand!...
I think having things in common is the key, that is all about character, similar views and goals and not things like looks or status.
When I was with someone compatible, things just fell into place, spending time with each other is easy, easy to talk, we never fought and simply wanted to spend time with each other.
so you want to slap some sense into my thick head?
Kn, this sounds really great but I think looks has something to say to compatibility too. I wouldn't be encouraged to date a man with unkempt beard and physically not attracted to...
Status in some ways matters too...if he doesn't work and can hardly takes care of himself, I might buy him a drink and a dinner or two but I don't think I will do that for the rest of his lazy life...
Only on friendship basices!...
I know
