It is possible that some women have been burned so badly when they took the risk in the past to believe a man or believe in love and now feel they can't, or that taking the risk again is not worth the pain. Learned behavior that is hard to shake.
And since there are no longer dragons to slay, what proof can a woman ask of a man? what actions rather than just words can a woman believe? we are told conflicting things by countless magazines and books advising how to handle, maneuvre and manipulate a budding relationship into what we think we need and want, only to have everyting turned upside down, the man lies or leaves or is unfaithful or we realize too late that we are unhappy.
We are as confused as you are. Our instincts are blunt and worn down by cynicism, and we think we want what movies and faded memories of fairy tales tell us to want from love, from a man, from a relationship.
Be patient and slay the dragons as they arise in our minds.
