By my mid 20s, I grew tired of hearing women’s stories about cheating, abusive, and substance abusing boyfriends. Meanwhile, I saw in my life and my friends’ lives that their girlfriends and wives were cheating and leaving with the same excuse, “Not enough.”
Not enough attention.
Not enough love.
Not enough quality time.
Not enough sex.
Not enough money.
When I kept making the mistake of dating these women, because all women claim their last boyfriend was abusive, so I had no real choice, I found myself in the same position. I was never doing enough. As they sought their next partner under the protection and provision I provided, I was left behind.
But they were never at fault for cheating. Even other women blamed me for picking them or not providing enough. Nobody blamed the women for seeking another man.
My solution: I do not pick anymore. Buy me gifts, shower me with attention, provide for me, and I will tell you it’s still not enough.
