Every man knows that respect is earned, not given.
And most men would rather have a woman’s respect than her love.
And most women cannot truly love a man they do not respect.
Are these three valid reasons why women prefer to enter into, and remain in, LTRs with men who "intimidate" them or whom they "fear," rather than with men to whom they are attracted but whom they do not fear enough?
This is simply a reflection based on what I, and many other members here have observed along the way: freshly committed women but also the most committed ones, remain in relationships with their partners or husbands, often "nice guys" who have swallowed the "blue pill", who would lose their minds or do terrifying things if they ever found out that their gf/wives were attracted to, or had an encounter with another man, or that they could possibly have cheated on them, or something similar.
If the premise is true, do women stay in relationships with these types of intimidating, fear-inducing men, as if they were prisoners in a castle, because they actually respect them, and therefore truly love them, or, where is the point?
And you, what kind of man are you?
I'm pretty sure you would feel upset and angry too if you found out that your gf/wife was dealing with that kind of situation.
But having met many men here and understanding their POV, I think we can all agree on one thing: we should never allow ourselves to become men who trap a woman in a cage and lock the gate to keep her from leaving. Instead, we should be the kind of men who leave the gate open, giving her the freedom to choose, so that she understand that if she makes the wrong choices or does something foolish, she might come back one day only to find that the gate has been closed, and she no longer has a place in that cage.
It’s an unpleasant thing to say, but if she ends up doing something stupid and finds the gate locked, then you will be respected, and, at that point, even loved, even if she is no longer there.
On the other hand, how do you expect her to respect, and therefore love, you if you make it your concern to keep that gate permanently locked, with her trapped inside?
