Thanks. An amazing number of men are intimidated by a strong woman (strong
in any sense); the ones I've met seem to want weak, needy women. I dated a
man who got mad if I didn't sit in the car and wait for him to come around
and open my door, no matter how inconvenient it was. He said that opening my
car door made him "feel like a man". Not the kind of man I'm looking for.
Another guy I dated told me that he was afraid of me (I sure hope he was
kidding!)...he told me that I was "too capable" and didn't need anything
from him. My ex was just the opposite; he took full advantage of my
strengths; he always needed something from me, but didn't help much. There
must be a man somewhere not afraid of my competence but just as competent
himself.
