First off this telegram that you mentioned was from a man that loved his wife dearly. She was probably his first love. Which means his wife must have stayed with him through thick and thin. She stayed with him and allowed love to develop. She didn’t go to the next guy because he didn’t have a better car or a better paying income as seen in todays’s modern “independent” woman that is always on the lookout for a higher earning guy. Love does not happen instantly as today’s modern woman demands. She wants instant love and instant security in the form of status and earnings while she pesters him for the “commitment”. The woman in this telegram earned his love with kindness and care.
Her Royal Highness Dr. Wendy Osefo PhD (https://ift.tt/3EytXuV) has all the sheepskin she could muster from student loans but has no idea that she is a little whining baby that demands way too much. She said that women evolved and men have to “Rise to the occasion to meet where we are”. Which means, “Rise to my ever increasing level, the level that is based on my ever increasing, overinflated sense of her self, misperceived worth”.
Today’s woman wants a man to buy her gifts, pay her way, wine, dine and entertain her under the understanding that if you don’t, she will divorce you and take it all. She wants you to spend, spend, spend on her all the while she is saving her money for the jerk she will love over you. She knows way too well that a man’s innate abilities are to help and provide for his woman, except she thinks that is every man’s job.
I wonder if she would tell her sons to rise to the levels of their girlfriends? Good luck.
By the way, holding a door open is not exclusively for men holding doors for women only. Holding a door open is, what used to be called, “politeness” and it means that the first one to the door holds it for the next. Men hold the door open for women and for men all the time and that is a sign of self respect and honor. Make no mistake, many times women will go through a door with no regard for anyone behind her, man or women.
