So, this happens as a result of the tenderness *he* consistently shows her. She is, in true feminine nature, reflecting and responding to the tone he has set for the relationship.
Women want to be loved and cherished. Deep down, a woman in love is the young woman sitting on the metaphorical front step waiting in anticipation for the man she loves to return. This is the posture of her heart. She waits for him and responds with enthusiasm *because* he has demonstrated care for her outside of this moment and because he consistently reciprocates love and enthusiasm when they’re reunited.
Harshness feels like rejection to a woman. If he spends a week acting grumpy or annoyed with her when she greets him, she will take that as a sign that he doesn’t want her love. She will begin to withdraw, confused, and things will start to unravel.
Rightly ordered feminity is driven by the impulse to love and nurture. If she is prevented from properly existing in the feminine, she will wither.
life is sad. I’ve suffered man. being strong is getting harder each day. adulthood is something you’re never prepared for. life is just stacked against you. everyday is the same. communication skills with friends and family gets worse everyday. Isolation is what you enjoy. your..
Nothing inspires more optimism in me than people who not only embrace the season they’re in but make the most out of it. No comparing their current season to how “things were so much better back then”, only enjoying the one they’re in.
What changed perception of age for me was when someone put it like this “if you’re 25, you’ve only been an adult actually for 5 years. You’re a 5 year old adult. You just got here, you have SO many more years to go” and it’s like no you’re so fr-
I saw a tiktok of a girl making a soulmate password and only telling God so that if someone randomly says their password, they know God sent their soulmate. It was such a cute idea 🥺 And why not try this with other stuff too? So whenever you hear your password you know you’re at the right place at the right time.
When hubby and I got serious about courtship, I fasted and prayed, and asked God to erase any ties to and memories of the men I had been with before my husband. I was not coming to our marriage bed with no prior activity. I wasn’t coming to it ashamed or condemned either because I was made clean in Christ, however I wanted to be able to come to my marriage bed with dignity; and for our experience together to be unique to us. He was a virgin and I was not, but I didn’t want that to be a hindrance to our sexual relationship.
People forget that “the marriage bed is undefiled” also means both partners have no sexual ties including memories to any other person past AND present. So I prayed, and consecrated MYSELF. I’m grateful that God erased everything. Not a single recollection. I wanted to have nothing and nobody to compare him to. Part of the reason marriages get into trouble is when couples aren’t sexually satisfied due to measuring their spouse against previous partners. Comparison is truly the thief of all joy. Including the joy of coming together as one. No pun intended. 😅
Here’s the deal: SEX IS LEARNED BEHAVIOR. That means you have to learn your spouse and you will never truly do that living the memories of previous partners before your spouse.
If you’re desiring marriage and you were intimate with someone who wasn’t your spouse, pray about the memories and details of that experience(s) to be removed from your heart and spirit.

The more I grow, I truly realise there is no better way to put this but life needs balls bro. You need to be brave. You need to cry for a little while and fight back. You can't allow everthing to get to you, you need to develop a thick skin. Life needs you to be brave. Yoh.🙏🏽
“i shouldn’t be annoyed at this” instead of shaming yourself for the emotion you’re already feeling, try understanding it. something has triggered you. it may seem small but you’ll soon find that when we give small things big reactions, it’s because a wound has been re-opened.
