I’m a reasonable woman. I’m an understanding woman.
I’ll date a guy who’s struggling. I’ll date a man between jobs. Ill date a man trying to figure things out. I’ll date a man who is living at home for now.
I will not date a lazy man. I will not date a disrespectful man. I will not date a man with no goals. I will not date a man who does not take responsibility for his actions. I will not date a man who is immature. I will not date a man who expects me to take care of him. I will not date a man who doesn’t know I’m not his mamma. I will not date a man who isn’t trying. I will not date a man who belittles me. I will not date a man who does not uplift me. I will not date a man who refuses to communicate. I will not date a man who makes me wonder how he feels about me. I will not date a man who is disrespectful to other women. I will not date a man who doesn’t understand the value of money. I will not date a man who is not interested in committing to me. I will not date a man who makes me beg for attention and affections.
Those are the standards. At the bare minimum.
Don’t let people make you feel weird or bad about your growth. The only ones who do that are the ones you outgrow & stunted your growth.
