Things Women Should Know About Men(For Men & Women)

Hello readers, I do not have enough words to describe how much I've missed you guys. Plus I want to say happy new month again to all those I haven't reached out to.
I've been reading all of your comments and I'm so glad that you guys are keeping up with all my posts. I also have seen your requests of me writing something that will be more directed to the men, so I figured I might as well write for both sexes. So today guys I'm going to be writing on the topic;“Things Women Should Know About Men” so we'll be dealing with the general qualities that make up a man in this post.
Last month I shared so much about women and their attributes, so now let's get some info. on the masculine perspective of life.
Now, there are boys and their are men, in this context I'll mostly be referring to ‘men' and not boys, you might be wondering why, well let's just say there's a big difference between them both, so here are some of the qualities a real man possesses;

INDEPENDENT: Now, notice I used the phrase ‘real man' this is because there has been so much deviation from true masculinity as well as diverse misconceptions. A man is independent, yep! that's right, and I don't necessarily mean independent in the sense that he must have a house of his own or a job (well, that counts too, especially if you want to be walking down the isle with that man anytime soon), rather, I'm referring to having an independent mind, that is, a mind of his own and not being tossed around by family, friends, acquaintances and all that. A real man is one who is capable of making decisions for himself, he doesn't rely on others to do that for him, he takes action, driven by his self motivation, dreams and goals, this is not to say that he doesn't seek the opinion of others but on the contrary, even when he does, his decision to act is not merely hinged on people's opinion but on his.
The opposite of this trait is what we see amongst the ‘boys,' a boy would act out what his fellas are asking of him. He is dependent on a whole bunch of people starting mainly with friends to act, he rarely makes a decision which is not influenced by other people's opinion.

RESPONSIBLE: Responsibilty cannot be simply over looked, its one major characteristic which singles out men. A man is some one who would take all the responsibility for his decisions, his actions. If things don't go as planned he owns up to it and if they do he takes credit for it. Simple! Also a man is responsible both for his dreams and for those he claims to love. He provides for and protects those he loves because he is responsible to them.

HUMBLE: Humility is something that comes with growth, as a man's goes through the struggles of life, he should imbibe a good sense of humility and this is mostly the case of men who are genuinely pursuing their dreams. Nevertheless, this is not to say that men are without flaws, on the contrary each man has his flaws which he should try to deal with.

MATURE: Age they say is not a criterion for measuring maturity, nevertheless, we are not talking about 14 and 16 year olds here. True that we still have full grown men acting like babies. But for a man to be a man he has to be mature age wise and also in attitude or character. I mean, ladies, you wouldn't go dating a 16 year old just because you feel he's matured in his character, he is still very much a boy and he needs to grow up!

SELF-CONTROL: This is one trait that distinguishes men from boys, while boys may lack self control, a real man should not. Self-control is one trait that a man shouldn't do without; it is this quality in him that helps him avoid fights, helps him keep his relationship and most importantly helps him prevent indiscriminate sexual activities. So ladies, if you want to be with a man, at least be with one that has self-control.

Okay, I think I'll wrap it up here for now, here's some food for thought for the ladies,

Food for thought: the reason why many of us women are suffering in relationships is because we have mistaken boys for men. Boys have no business being in serious relationships, they ought to be left to grow as well as gain maturity, being in relationships can hinder them from growth as well as destroy the lives of the women to whom they are attached to.
