Education
How important is the level of education of your potential mate?
Education goes beyond academics and also depends greatly on your background. Education is how opened one is being exposed to different things in life in regards to culture, thoughts, ideas, interpretation of issues and events. Some men prefer not to marry a woman that has several college degrees above what they have acquired and some women prefer men with a minimum level of education which can vary. As a woman it is important to choose a man that meets the level of educational requirement that you need or have set for yourself because you want a man that would not only make logical decisions but also lead you the right way.
Commitment
Think about things you do each day and how much commitment you dedicate to them; every single thing we do in life involves some type of commitment but with varying degrees. Commitment is a pledge or assurance to be there regardless of what happens and when it happens, it can vary depending on the stage you are in your relationship from friendship, courtship, engagement to marriage. In any relationship compatibility is very paramount because it causes people to break their vows and commitment to each other which in turn causes distrust. It is impossible to make any kind of relationship work without commitment be it your relationship with God, or the person you are courting or married to. Being committed to the wrong person or thing would lead to a bitter end and would stop you from accomplishing what God has intended for you. Your first and primary commitment should be your personal relationship with God, yourself and then others. It is important to know how deeply the person you are committing yourself to is committed to their faith, family, friends and promises they make which can be a benchmark for you to know how committed they would be to you. Your potential mate should be one that is committed to accomplishing your goal and vision and vice versa.

Why is that when a man cheats on his girlfriend or wife it is ok but it is not when a woman does that. I am not saying it is ok for either one to do so but whats with this mentality.
ReplyDeleteDo women have to remain in the relationship just because every guy out there will do the same thing as the previous one. If this is the case then we'll all just settle for whatever that comes our way and take it as the best. I mean I would like to believe that everybody isn't like that but seriously, in this world and culture we live in it's hard.
It is not ok or acceptable for anyone to cheat regardless of the sex. It is not right neither is it healthy for any woman to be in a relationship with a man that cheats on her and vice versa. Not every man cheats, although they are very few but I do believe there are still some good men out there and can stay true to their commitment regardless of what happens.
ReplyDeletethere are some few goodmen? In what zipcode cuz I know I have been looking . But anyways stillsoul you are right however society has always had double standards at least when pertaining to gender norms. like why is it "cool" for a guy to sleep around and "slutty" for a girl to do the same?
ReplyDeleteerrrrmm 2nd anonymous there are a few good men out there and am sure some men can testify to it. In regards to the gender norms, we can't erase that but every woman should know what she can settle for and a man cheating should not be one of those things.
