While walking home from the club last night (or this morning, however you look at it) I asked my male friend something that has bothered me for some time. The pertinent question is "Why am I still single?" Before responding he asked do I want the truth? Of course I say yes!! I mean why else would I ask a question I wasn't prepared to hear the answer for? Anyways his response was quite simple "Guys are intimidated by you."
Why though? On what grounds do I intimidate a guy? I am hoping to find the root cause of this intimidation. I don't think I'm that smart to intimidate a guy intellectually, so it can't be that. I wonder if it is that I'm wifey material and guys are intimidated by that, by my level of maturity or motherlyness (which isn't a word but I make my own words all the time). I cannot guarantee that finding the answers to my questions will cause me to make changes that will allow me to be less intimidating, but at least it equips me with knowledge about the males around me. I cannot be someone or something I'm not. I can try but at the end of the day I will not be happy at all.
Oh well, my search continues to understand how I am perceived. How do people perceive you?
