Ok so can someone give me advice on how a relationship/marriage is supposed to work? Your views?

I was always taught the man was the head of the house hold and what he says go. How do you feel about that? A man and womna is equal right? But I believe and was taught man was man after God and woman was made after man so through the chain man is over woman. Anyway, I know a lot of people's feathers are going to be fuffled by what I just said but a man is supposed to be the dominant one and the one is supposed to sumbit herself. Am I right? So nowadays women seem to want to be dominant and the man wants to be dominant because it's his nature. So how are the two supposed to get along?

Just from what I've seen and heard people don't know loyalty anymore.

A husband has to be a man his wife can respect and trust, not someone that is going to be bossy. My cousin would be an example of what not to be. When they would go shopping for groceries, he would get whatever he felt like getting and wouldn't let his wife get anything she wanted.



"No! That's too expensive! But I can get all these deserts that I like!"



"Why don't you eat something else?! This is my favorite!!"



Sounds like a "little kid that doesn't like to share" instead of a "husband". That's a mildly extreme example, but you get the point.



:peace::peace:

So you plan on having multiple partners? Or are you the one and only exception to everybody?

No!! Absolutely under no circumstance do I want multiple partners. My wife cheating on me is my biggest fear. I'd never cheat on her because I know how it feels and I'd never do that to her. I just want one good christian woman to love and spend my life with. I just need someone who I know will be loyal to me and love and respect me for the rest of our lives. Someone who will truely love me from the bottom of their heart and even after I'm gone they will still think about me and love me, because that's how I will feel about her. She will be my only love ever.

So what makes you'll be so different if you're convinced that everybody else will cheat? And how can you think your wife won't cheat either, since everyone cheats but you?

You've made some pretty bold claims here...

I said..."there's so much disrespect for men now that you won't find many women willing to follow a man, unless that man is a movie star."



She said..."I completely disagree with that. Yes, there are women like that... but not ALL women are like that! Just as men don't want to be lumped into generalities, neither do women.



I am perfectly willing to follow a man that has proven himself worthy of being a leader. Unfortunately, I'm not having any luck finding that."



Oh vey. I said "many", not "all"! Maybe you're not looking for a literal movie star, but you're demanding that a guy prove himself -- which translates into the same astronomically-high standards.



The demand that a guy "prove himself" belies the default assumption that he is a worthless individual. No thanks. Jesus says that I'm of infinite worth. I don't need to demonstrate my worth to anyone -- I am inherently worthy in Him.

Yeah, my wife cheating on me is a biggie here, as well. There's a great song about it, though -- "Bad Diary Days" by Pedro the Lion, the once-upon-a-time kings of sadcore.

Nope... not all men are worth following and submitting to. Many men are actually boys... and are nothing like Jesus or are not truly walking with Jesus. In other words, they talk the talk but don't really walk the walk.



When a woman marries a man, she is literally trusting that man with the rest of her life. She is trusting that man to guide and lead them as a couple with both their interests at heart while serving God at the same time.



Yes... a man should prove that he is worth the woman's trust of her life in his hands.

Hmm.. "Prove" myself to be worthy of dating you? Well, I don't necessarily agree that I need to prove myself to a woman, but I do think that it naturally happens in the course of courting a woman. We're dating each other to see how compatible and equally-yoked we are, not whether or not you deserve me, and vice versa.

Does a woman not have to prove herself worth you pursuing a relationship with, or do you have to time to pursue every single female who crosses your path?
