Does anyone out there have an interest in female-led relationships?
When I say 'female-led' I suppose I mean 'negotiated'. My own experience in relationships has often been a sliding scale of affection and attention. By agreeing 'rules' - particularly around intimacy - I've found more lasting and satisfying relationships. And I suppose these relationships are built on honesty, rather than trying to 'fool' the other person and manipulate them.
As one person commented, she would like to see more female politicians. I think females pay more attention to relationships, and if they are in a commanding position with agreed rules, they can maintain that relationship because there's no backsliding by the man.
The man, on the other hand, knows what he's getting into, so if he isn't honest about his intentions at the start, then there's no point, because the 'rules'.
I'm interested in what you all think...
I'm interested in a equal partnership, or a living separate lives situation. Not trying to "be the boss."
Because you are home schooling an “amazing” little boy, I would have to say that you are amazing yourself. And that makes me wonder why you would want a separate life type of relationship. Your son should learn about committed relationships in a wholesome way.
@ezwryder Well, thanks! I like to think I'm amazing, but it's nice to hear from someone else
That's exactly the point, if it's not an equal partnership, it's not going to be part of my son's life. The only type of committed/romantic relationship he's going to see me in, is the type I want to model for him. Which means, if it's not good enough to model for the boy, it has to be completely separate. Which also means, it probably won't last long term.
