Think Like A Lady - A Post for the Men (A Snippet)

Recently, I was presented with the topic: What Goes On in a Woman's Mind?  As you all know, Steve Harvey wrote a book which later became the movie "Think Like A Man", outlining exactly how men think. I thought I would help some of the men who haven't figured women out by now.

What is on our mind?
This can be broken down by situation. Women are emotional creatures, even if we portray a "tough as nails" exterior, we are and always will be nurturing and loving beings.
Women are simple : 1 part attention, 1 part compliments, & 4 parts emotion 

1. General Thoughts:
- Things we need to complete and how in the world we are going to get it done in time
- What is our significant other doing
- Keeping the balance between necessities and desires
       i.e. shoes that we think we need v.s groceries that we know we need
- If involved: how great or how horrible our sex life is
      Yes, we all think about sex, some women are less open about this subject, but if we aren't getting any or if the little bit we get is horrible...please believe it is on our mind ALL DAY LONG.
- Men
      Women spend hours, days, months, & years attempting to get inside the mind of a man. All this time and we haven't realized that it's nearly impossible. We are hardheaded, but determined!

2. What We Need:
- ATTENTION
        HELLO? If you haven't noticed this by now then you never will. Women live off of attention...Some women need attention for verification! Others simply want the attention of one person, while some seek attention from anyone willing to give it.
- To feel needed
       We don't want needy and helpless men, but we do like to feel like we are needed for some things
- To feel desired
       Compliments are BIG! If you think we look beautiful, why not say it? Most men have their head too far up their butt to notice when their girl changes something about herself, or even if she takes a little longer to look nice. Notice these things!! 

3. What We Look For:
- Someone that is interested in our personal accomplishments
     A women will hold you down even when you have done her wrong, but when you give her nothing at all, it's guaranteed that she will either leave or cheat. Support her dreams and encourage her because most likely there is some other man willing to support those dreams to the fullest. If you have absolutely nothing to offer this women, at least offer your heart, your words, and back it through actions.
- Jealously kills
      It's ok to feel a little frustrated when a man is staring at your woman, but you should be proud to call that gorgeous woman your significant other. Take pride in the fact that someone else is noticing what you have!   
 Please!Please! Please! DO NOT get angry and break up with your woman for being hardworking and wanting to enjoy time with her friends. If you trust her then you shouldn't be worrying who she will encounter along the course of the night. If you don't trust her, you shouldn't be with her in the first place. 
     We like seeing a little frustration from time to time. Don't be so passive when people are looking or whistling at your woman. Be a man and stand up and claim her as yours! We like to know that you're observing our surroundings. 
- Be Humble
     OH, so you thought you were too cool to open the door for her? Ok, just remember chivalry is not dead.
    She doesn't need to hear about the money you spent at the mall or how much her dinner is going to cost you.
    Not all women desire to be bought, so for all you "ballers" out there keep your pockets light. You attract the wrong women by carrying around your "pocket change" and pulling out 100s everywhere you go. Nothing that a good woman wants in the course of an evening at dinner will run you more that $200. ** That $200 includes a beautiful dinner, movies, flowers, and any other little surprises that pop up along the way!

4. Why Women Cheat
- their man was too busy chasing other women to notice her chasing other men
self explanatory 
- For those women who need tons of attention: their man was too busy with daily activities 
i.e. work, sports, hobbies, etc. 
only strong, dedicated women can conquer this...that's how you know she's a keeper
-Lack of sexual activity or terrible performance
you do not want to ever be the minute man that is discussed over cosmos
- Feeling unappreciated
This is the big one! You want a woman that cooks for you, cleans up after you, washes your clothes, deals with your attitude, and late nights with the boys, but can't say thank you or give her the night off when she's exhausted. 
- Plain fed up!
We may just be tired of your constant need for us to wait on you hand and foot or we're tired of you entertaining other females when you can't even talk to us that way.
This is how you turn a woman bitter! 
If she is the one you love and she's putting her all into keeping you happy, do not go seeking extra attention from the girl you saw at the bar.

Men, please try to get it together!
