Worries

You say I'm not active enough.... When I try to go for a long walk, I end up in agony with my bad hips.
I get sad.... You get mad.
You say I don't try to cheer you up when your down.... You simply don't pay attention to my attempts.
You often shun going to meet my friends.... You get annoyed at me when I express anxiety over meeting yours.
You say you don't like drinking.... You go out drinking with your friends and say I'm never interested in going out.
You say you want time to yourself.... I hear, 'I don't want to be with you.'
I say, 'I love you,'..... You say. 'I love you too.'

But do you like me?

Stupid Expectations

 I read somewhere that in order for a woman to be marriage material, she has to be secure in their emotions and never get angry or upset. She has to put up with anything from her potential husband and laugh about it. Bring children into the world and not complain. Do everything for the people she claims to love and expect nothing back.
 I guess its true to an extent but. excuse me, Bullshit Alert!!!!!!!
 I can't control my emotions and I definitely don't take shit from people. If I have kids in the future, I want to be able to complain about morning sickness, bad backs, sleepless nights and if my future husband doesn't change his half of the dirty nappies then he'll have them thrown in his face.
 The truth is, perceptions have changed over the years. Yes, some people still believe that a woman should be the rock, cold and hard in nature. There are few left who show that to the world. The women I know want all the love and attention that they pour out, given back to them... and rightly so.
 The modern day women will be the rocks made of Jello. They melt in the heat, they wobble around over decisions and emotions vary all the time. However, no matter how bad the situation is, we will always look lovable, cuddly and will make people happy.
