[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I have seen very attractive, very successful women make their man the center of everything when they are dating or even in a relationship. Some women give up successful careers, leave behind great jobs etc not because it's the best choice but because not making that sacrifice (in their mind) may jeopardize their relationship.

What wrong with being single when the alternative is giving up so much of your personal goals?

Don't call us men for being selfish for not making similar sacrifices. You are not being forced. You can say no. If the relationship ends or never materializes because of it then be it.

My daughter is extremely smart. Her lowers grade is a 98%. She is in 10th grade and wants to be an aerospace engineering major. I won't lie my fear is that one day she meets a boy she is crazy over and gives up a lot job grad school etc just because that's what that man wants. If she ever asks me any advice about giving up anything for a man, my answer will be a resounding NO. [/quote]

Instead of waiting for her to ask for advice, why not model it for her? My dad taught me how to live independently, how to know my own worth, and encouraged me to never settle. He also showed me that things like cooking, cleaning, taking kids to appointments, etc could be done by men by doing them himself. I’m now in a marriage with a man that is a true partnership, because I know that is possible from seeing it myself.[/quote]
