Dependent on Being Independent (Closer)

So, I seriously thought I was done with this topic & avoiding this one, but I was wrong. It seems to stick to strong to me based on observing the previous loves of my life along with the multiple stories I have with many of my female friends. I’m gonna throw it out there in one sting…WHAT DOES IT TAKE TO BREACH/BREAK THE WALL. Ladies & gentlemen, there is nothing wrong w/ being able & willing to do for yourself. Men really love a woman who can do for herself, but the problem that occurs is when pride is so stuck up your ass that asking or receiving help is gonna diminish your independent barrier. One word that a woman NEVER wants to be associated with is WEAK, but there’s never anything wrong with asking for or receiving help. Men, we need to improve on this too. We sometimes have a tendency to feel like because we’re men we don’t need no help from nobody, because we can do it. Well, I’m sad to say that there are some things we just can’t do. Now, for those of you who are gonna cross-reference me and say that some men can do women’s tasks & vice versa…YES that’s true. I know quite a few men who can clean ten times better than a woman & I also know some women who can change a tire with their eyes close. I state all that to say this…we all have things that we’re good at and there are things that we sometimes need help with. That’s why in the end, we have each other. To those who feel like they can do it all on their, then try to have sex with yourself. Now, yeah, I know a lot of you are gonna throw the infamous “I can ‘please’ myself”, but ain’t nothin’ like the real thing. Also, here’s another way of looking at it. Think about those nights when you lay in bed ALONE because you have no one to come chill & cuddle. That’s where that companion and affection comes into play. I don’t care what any independent or strong-willed person tells you, they have feelings and they’re affectionate. So now, next I gotta handle the hardball crew that is as tough as nails & can take on anything life brings their way. Yeah, they probably can, but when you think about it, all it takes it to think of something or be reminded of someone who means a lot to them that either isn’t here or isn’t a part of their lives for whatever reason. Just like Sade says, “have you ever seen a man break down”. If you have, then this means that he’s a REAL man who’s willing to show you his feelings. The same applies to women who let their layers of independent-like tendencies down. Whew…did I miss anything? I know if I did, my readers are gonna tell me as usual. You know I’m working my hardest to improve on everything life has to offer. I hope that this trifecta of blogging ties in everything that needs to be said about how tough it is being independent while being dependent on someone. I know that a lot of my readers will either say “what about…” or “what if…” & my personal favorite…”but you didn’t mention…”. Well, if there’s more you’d like addressed, then you know what to do. Mad Blogga doing what he does best…signing out.
