That ...

 

That was a pleasant surprise today Lucy...I want stuff like that

ALL THE TIME...Just out of the blue, be sitting at work or home...and be like DAMN!

 

Know what single professional women between the ages of 35 and 45 really want? Seems counter -intuitive, but they want to be told what to do. They really do, they want someone to make decisions for them or at least to help make decisions for them. They do it all, all on their own, working their careers, taking care of their homes, shopping, cooking cleaning etc...and it gets old for them. They want someone to plan dinners or nights out or weekend getaways or vacations or be told what sexual position to assume next, because over the course of time it gets taxing making all the decisions. They want someone to make them for them, or at least have suggestions. "Where do you wanna eat tomorrow when we go to town honey?" "Oh I don't care sweetie where ever you want to." The man says it just to keep the peace a lot of times, doesn't want to go out on limb, scared to piss lil miss career minded off. So what happens? You get pissed off! Not because of where to eat or not eat dinner, but because of the lack of forethought, lack of imagination, lack of planning and having an idea, or not wanting to try new places, new things and the  lack of leadership. Then the woman is left sitting there thinking "This is what I signed on for?" This is it? This is my dream? I was doing this good on my own". It's not natural, nor is it biblical. I ain't sayin' it's the 50's and stay at home and have kids and cook and clean, not at all. I'm just sayin when there is a strong man in the picture who can set the course of the relationships sails for the directions the ship needs to go in, it becomes easier for a woman to open up that totally feminine side of herself that she has repressed due to her career, living on her own, making all the decisions all the time. You may not want to hear it, but deep down, you know it's true.

 

Now think about me for a minute. I have to make all the decisions and plan not just for me but for a highly creative intelligent 14 year old boy as well. It gets old some days lol. It's taxing. It would be nice after a decade of doing so to get a break every once in a while. It would be nice to come home and know that things are taken care of and that he has been taken care of. Because right now I'm running around making sure he has everything he needs while I am gone. It makes it hard to relax sometimes. He's asking me about Nietzsche and Chinese agriculture economics, I'm like "Dude, I just wanna make sure we have paper plates and pancake syrup".lol
