Single Ladies what do you think?

I have concluded that unless they are in control, men are intimidated by women who are self sufficient and can hold their own. I would very much like to have a male companion but it seems as though either I'm not attractive enough or I'm too independent. They say that they want a strong woman but when they encounter one, they immediately put up a wall and back off.

A real man would welcome a woman who is self-sufficient and has her own interests. They look beneath the skin to see the woman inside and don't place so much emphasis on outward appearance. A real man would be supportive of his lady's interests and encourage her to be all that she could be.

The men who are control freaks are full of insecurities and thus they try to break their women down to their levels.

Hehe... well, erm, actually i'm a woman and tend to find that my independence gets in the way of my relationships - i get cross with having to fit someone into my life, then cross with myself for not being able to handle it, then just run a mile cos i'm fed up of the guilt. tch, i'm probably just a bloke at heart!

I confess - had to Google both Liam Neeson and Shemar Moore - I guess it is a generational thing - Shemar - not too bad at all, Liam -ummmm (each to his/her own)

Well - I'm still new to the whole single girl thing - but my additude is love me for who I am - and I will in return. Not all men are intimidated by self-sufficient women. And those that are are looking for a "puppet". Am I 100% self=sufficient - no. I can't do alot of the "manly stuff" and that's where I miss having a man...well...bsides the obvious too LOL - But I like Jane & Lola's theory about Bob - He works for me right now! LOL

    Hi all! This is for those of you that have or have had the same neurologist for 4 years or more. I have been with mine now since 2009. He is one of the best movement disorder secialists in the midwest. I know he is extremely busy on the lecture circuit now and in fact not taking new patients there is a huge waiting list for him. BUT.... I feel like my visits are not what they use to be. He...

    I gave my 2 week notice last Friday 13th. Now to join you fine people in a life of leisure and nothing else to do but to look out for myself....is it just me or does that sound pretty boring? My goal was to live to retire and I guess having to take early retirement because of health reasons wasn't exactly the way I had planned things. I just can't stay in that building that is reeking mildew...
