MEN WHO APPRECIATE THE ILLUSION ARE NOT COMMITTED TO WHO YOU REALLY ARE.
Ladies it’s time we queens get real with what we want in a man.
It’s time we stop hyper focusing on establishing attraction when what we really need and want is trust.
So often I work with beautiful women who keep drawing in crappy guys, however on the front side of the relationship the man appeared to have it all going on. The woman looked at him and said, “we have such chemistry,” when in fact what she thought was chemistry was actually attraction and because they never took a significant timeframe to actually get to know each other and see if they had true chemistry, mutual supportive beliefs, lifestyles and likes, but instead just got caught on the perception of each other they found themselves to not be compatible down the road.
90% of first dates today are with total strangers.
Why is that alarming? I mean after all our dating world is on apps, social media and dating sites. It’s how we meet people in this ocean of humans that are looking for love.
Today’s dating world breeds a hyper focus on the creation of attraction.
Attraction is what is sought after for both men and women alike.
We swipe left and right, heart the ones we consider a match and start up conversations of the superficial level to match our superficial ideals of what a match is to begin with.
Opening lines of , “How’s your day going?”
or, ” Got any plans for the weekend?”
Are meant to show interest and say, ” I am curious about you and your life, not just jumping into bed with you.”
The hope is that the party inquiring will be viewed as a conscious, present, attentive, empathetic, mature individual who has more to offer and desires more than just physical intimacy.
Even though the reality is what the reality is.
We date in today’s world to gain physical intimacy.
Thats why its called a “hookup society,” because we are into the quick get off and call it connection.
Dinner, drinks, movie, superficial chat and that should lead to sex.
Well as long as there is mutual attraction right?
Because that is what a rock solid connection is built on.
That is what relationships stand strong on.
That is what makes lifetime bonds and makes partners commit to the relationship.
Well, it certainly can get you a relationship.
It can get you married even.
The house.
The car.
The lifestyle.
Mutual attraction or at least enough attention and appreciation to the perception of how someone is showing up physically regardless of how they are attracted back to you or not, can land you these things.
But, it will not land you love and compatibility nor trust.
You see, so often we women are guilty of “making ourselves up, or putting our faces on, making ourselves beautiful.” however what we are saying is I don’t believe that you will love me, appreciate me, accept me in my raw authentic state. I know that you want to see me adorned like this so that you are proud of who you have on your arm and in return…
We women get the above lifestyle options.
The mere statement of “putting on my face,” should speak volumes.
I don’t want you to see me.
I am not comfortable in my own skin.
I feel like I am not good enough.
Now, don’t get me wrong, the act of putting on makeup or doing your hair and nails, changing dresses fifteen times because you can’t find the right one for that moment, wanting to be beautiful for the moment and for your date, your partner is not superficial or inauthentic. We women should want to look beautiful and feel beautiful in the relationship and for our partners. Loving someone makes us want to be our best and show our best.
But a long term, committed, real relationship that is based in love and truth never finds its foundation on physical attraction.
But instead it is based on trust.
The reason why so many marriages end in divorce is because trust was either never there to begin with or it was broken along the way and never focused on for repair. It requires emotional maturity to want to repair the trust or to have it to begin with. In today’s dating and relationship times, we find ourselves dating strangers, expecting that we should know who they are from a few hours a week face to face time and some texting or calls between. We go on dates that are surface level, where we entertain ourselves and never dig deep to reveal who this other person is nor ourselves to them.
That’s what we have to do these days.
We have to uncover who this other person is.
Just twenty years ago we spent more time getting to know each other, we dated people that were from our churches, social communities, gyms, school. We had some ideas about who they were.
Fifty years ago and further, when two people started to explore a relationship it was because they already had an awareness of each other. Chances are they had known or been around each other in lots of instances through family, friends and community.They were involved in similar lifestyles and beliefs. They shared community, friends and views most often. So they had certain compatibilities that they were aware of before the first date ever happened.
Today, often we don’t know what we are compatible with.
The catalog of possibilities is too vast.
We are detached from ourselves, not knowing who we are, what is socially acceptable or not, how our views will make us attractive or not and we are longing for the attraction factor because we believe that if we are attracted then we can figure out the rest as we go.
This simply is not healthy nor true and only sets us up for a run of one night stands with “pretty people” or what we find attractive.
Perhaps our attraction is to the holistic, crunchy, yoga minded, meditative, raw foodie personality. If someone presents this image and we find them physically attractive in it, then we are likely to “believe or think ” that they are compatible. If they say all the right woke statements then we believe that they are an elevated soul, empathetic, and we lay our trust in them prematurely.
Trust is established by getting down to the dirty details of someone.
By investing the time, energy and authentic deep inquiry with them to see how much you really align, outside of how attracted to their face, body, or comments you may be. Trust is only established from witnessing someone and seeing them in the real and raw, watching them cope with different things and engage in multiple relationships such as with their children, friends, the waitress at the restaurant, a work call, ther dog, etc. Trust is revealed over the course of hundreds of hours face to face with someone.
And from this trust is revealed the REAL PERSON.
Make up or not.
Their truth comes out and you see alignment with them which you can commit to and fall in love with or you see division.
The relationship that simply appreciates the illusions that we put forward to be perceived in some fashion typically is looking for superficial connection and relating and is not wanting commitment or to build a lifetime relationship of the heart.
Becoming aware of what we truly are looking for at any given time in our lives around relationships, and getting right with whatever that is and calling for what it is will help prevent pain in our dating and is a major step toward emotional maturity and acceptance of self.
Which is the foundation of trust.
To know thyself first so that you know what is truly compatible and in alignment or not.
