I never understood why a girl is always suppose to be that ride or die chick that stays with a man and helps him build and become the man she deserves but a guy is never told to stay with a woman while she finds herself. A guy will always look for that perfect woman but we are suppose to settle for a building project?! Fuck that.

I love seeing posts like these because it really makes me realize how much I’ve been conditioned to live to uplift men. We really don’t ever hear about people telling men to stand by a woman when she has nothing and helping her reach her full potential. 

There was this other post about women learning to love what their men love and how men don’t do the same in return and thats so fucking true. 

It just makes feel like I’ve been brainwashed into settling for a partner that really isn’t as great as I probably think he is in my head.

Posts like these really have taught me what to look for in a partner because sometimes I feel like i can’t discern between what I really want and what I’ve been conditioned to want.
