NorseMedic: I’ve been away for a while, but now I’m back and ready to rock you!
My question for you today is simply this: Do you demand what you deserve?
When was the last time you stood up for you and told a partner “I deserve this! You must give it to me or we’ll have to part our ways”.I realized how I have felt like saying that a couple of times, but never did. And I think to myself why is that. Why do I make do with something ordinary when I deserve something extraordinary?
I tried it today. For a long time a mentor of mine has neglected his duties towards me. Promises where made that weren’t kept and I just crawled by the panels and hoped he would come around.
But after thinking about what I truly deserve I drove by his home and stood there right on his doorstep on his private property and told him that he could do better and he better do it, because I didn’t deserve the way he has been treating me and I won’t ignore it any longer. If he couldn’t give me what I asked for our ways had to part.
And he just stood there and listened and when I was done he nodded and said “Yes Valerie, you do deserve better and I can do better. I will have what you requested by Monday.”
I can’t begin to describe how good it felt. Not just that the things will get done, which is great. But the feeling of standing up for myself, drawing a line – for me! …it was really satisfying. It gave me a sense of self-esteem because I decided to respect myself enough to take action.Sooner or later I will find someone and enter a relationship. When I do I will definitely not wait that long to show what I’m about and what I’m worth. It’s not that people shouldn’t know themselves, but sometimes they don’t realize that they are hurting. Sometimes they don’t realize the seriousness.
I, for one, will be more demanding in the future. I know what I want and I shouldn’t be afraid to voice it.
Are you good at standing up for yourself and voicing what you want?

uhmmmm.... interesting points. I think it is within our rights to standing up for oneself and voicing what one wants...
However, especially in relationships, who is the judge that can tell us what is the stuff we really deserve? I think many abusive situations as well (especially from men toward women) come from this point of view: "It is my right"

quote]This is exactly why I have quit looking for women in this room. Exactly!! Most of you have such a high opinion of yourselves and such inflated egos, that it makes the average man feel they are never worthy of you. Inadequate is maybe a better word.
The better question might be: Do you demand what you THINK you deserve?
If some of you demanded what you deserve...you would be alone the rest of your life. I have no time or inclination for vanity and inflated egos

So when I demand honesty and faithfulness, and that people keep the promises they make... I'm having an inflated ego?
Perhaps it's YOU who shouldn't be so aggressive and indstead of attacking me and/or other women should ask us: "So what IS it then, that you demand?" and let our answers be your guideline. Not just your prejudice.
