It disturbs that some men still can't respect a strong women. The guys that I am referring too are those that are demanding us women to express our emotions and feelings, or constantly showing men we care about them. A guy I was "talking" too told me I was like a dude because I had no emotion. Why do some men expect all women to go love crazy on them. I don't have time to constantly tell a guy how I feel . If you need to be reinforced so often then we don't need to be together. If we addressed the situation already then all we need to do is maintain our love by actions.
The signs of love speak more volumes then words for me because people can say anything and not mean anything. Going back to strong women I have realized these guys love weak women they can control. These guys build up confidence that were insecurities when they find girls that go crazy for them. I demand the dual participation; if you want me to show you affection and love then you must do the same at the same degree. I can't take the half ass type of relationships that these men give. Does anybody else share similar thoughts?

Sometimes it is not about your love for a person, sometimes it is their own insecurities and fear of losing the one that they hope loves them, because somewhere down the line they said they loved someone and they didn't love them as much as they had hope. Sometimes love can be like a bad relationship it makes it hard for the next person who comes along, because the person before you did some jacked up mess. Or maybe they both did some jacked up mess between the two of them.

I agree with you and more often I find myself in the same situations. I learned from my short years on this earth that real men can handle a strong woman. I believe that when you are confident in yourself, you should not fear the success of your spouse or partner. Think about it if they blow up so do you, I say take some of what their doing and add it to your own life and men can experience the same happiness. A guy friend told me that a man that has a problem with a strong woman is just insecure in what he is doing and you don't need to be with him. I say men stop comparing yourselves to what she has and enjoy the relationship for what it is.
