I think of a man and I take away reason and accountability.

Do you want to know a secret? Women. I don’t get you. I’ve had three major girlfriends in my life. I’ve had two wives. The first woman, I was just engaged.

All of them, used me. Two of them accept no responsibility for the demise of our relationship.

I used them too, but their use was pretty blatantly selfish. They got what they wanted from me. They gave only what they could. They didn’t have a servant heart.

All of them can’t be persuaded or find reason.

They all say I’m the problem. I know! So, whatever. I’ll work on other things.

Genesis 2:18

¹⁸ The Lord God said, “It is not good for the man to be alone. I will make a helper suitable for him.”

I tried to be a helper too. I did so much. Except for the first one when I was young and scared and had little to no resources or vision of the future. I didn’t do much for her. But I worked my ass off for the other two. I received little value from that work. It did not make them like me more.

I also have the fine experience of a month long relationship that keeps emailing me and telling me what a horrible person I am. So, that’s fun.

Women work from a perspective of how do they make me feel. How does he make them feel?

It could be sexual. It could be financially safe and morally safe and whatever. It’s late and I’m hungry.

Women. I don’t get you. I’m probably going to spend the rest of my life wandering and alone. With the exception of the two women that are my daughters. I will try to lead them as best I can.
