start over

[jhonny9546]

A woman learns early that everything is temporary. She'll be fine with a man, just to show that she's taken the step.
She'll have children with him simply to experience it. To progress. Even though she knows he isn't and won't be there forever: it's just his turn.
But why not a marriage? Yes, just to experience that, to get socially validated.

A man sees things differently. A man cares about making a name for himself and acquiring skills, knowledlge. Being tied to a place and their people.

A man puts down roots to grow his tree.
A woman hangs ornaments on the branches of the tree and helps its fruit grow.
When those fruits are mature, the woman go search another tree.


If a man makes the wrong career, and life choices, it can be destructive.
He has to destroy his old self to start from scratch again.
A woman has done this many times, and for her, it won't be a problem.
Even if others make it seem like it's a catastrophe, an apocalypse.

One of the most important qualities I admire in a man is the ability to reinvent himself, start over, find a new career, and in a very short time, get back on track. This seems to be natural to women, but for men, this is a skill hard learnt

I think the difference is in how male and female brains function.

One is more short term, instant, emotional reward. The other is rooted in what's rational and logical which happens to shape long term thinking habits that make them successful.

Men have always had to "build it and they will come".

Women just sit their and look pretty and they come, instant reward. They know there will be another come along.

Off topic, but the quote you reference has been actually changed to "build it and he will come", which makes no sense, but that's the Mandela Effect for you (google Field of Dreams famous quote if you don't believe me)

@The Duke I think you're on the right track.

It also explains that rush of adrenaline and pleasure that women get when they go shopping.


@New_Journey Not at all, the title just says the ability of women to "start over" with ease. Like drinking a glass of water, while for men its more like this
