3 reasons men walk away from seemingly good women

3 reasons men walk away from seemingly good women

By Miss Kes 

Many women suffer from being the best they can be to their men, thinking they will share happily ever after, only to end up with broken and empty hearts.

Why do the men leave, often for women who do none of the above?  A few men we polled speak out.

He feels undermined and disrespected

Men are built on pride and ego and once they feel that their masculinity is under scrutiny or threatened, they will find someone else who will boost their egos and allow them to be in charge.

He feels like he is in a financial race

It is twice as hard for a successful woman to find and keep a man because with success comes an attitude of power and when that is wielded in a man’s face, he will feel cornered. If she starts talking about what she provides and how much she is worth financially, it’s even worse. It is not that a man doesn’t want his woman to be successful, but he will still need to be elevated as head of the household.

He feels socially depleted

If she is constantly coaching him about how to behave around her social circle, that man will start wondering if he made the right choice being with that woman. It is not to say that change is an awful street to navigate, but change needs to be gradual and not forced.
