The way a good number of women romanticise the idea of meeting a complete stranger and marrying them within 3โ6 months in the name of โmen know what they wantโ will never sit well with me.
Not to be that person, but itโs strange. And the even crazier part is how much agency youโre willing to surrender in this whole narrative. Any random stranger can walk into your life, decide he wants to marry you within six months, and you interpret that as some grand validation of your worth. โHe saw my worth, thatโs why he married me so quickly.โ
As opposed to questioning how strange it is that youโre willing to let someone you barely know make a lifelong commitment with you. Why is his willingness to marry you so quickly the ultimate measure of your worth? Where does your own judgment, discernment and decision-making come into all of this? Do you even like the person beyond the excitement of being chosen? So many questions, very few answers, but yeahโฆ..it is what it is.

I stole this discipline trick from the military.
My kids used to ignore me until I repeated myself 5 times.
Now they respond the first time. Every time.
Here's what changed:
I give the instruction once. Then I count to 3 in my head.
If they haven't moved by 3, immediate consequence. No warning. No negotiation.
They learned: Dad's words mean something.
Consistency beats volume.
A lot of men are misogynistic if we want to be sincere. Thatโs why I always advocate for men to give women equal chances and equal treatment.
I like to see when men choose not to be misogynistic by choosing to act fair and equal when dealing with women.
