The Personality of Men Today
Have you ever heard of the song “Grow Old with You” by Adam Sandler? It tells how a man could devote himself to a woman he loves and also how a woman would like to be treated by a man.
Though every woman has a vision of what a perfect man should be, it would still come to the conclusion that they want someone who’s responsible, caring, honest, loyal, respectful, patient,
understanding and would accept them for who and what they are.
Nowadays, that vision of the so-called “perfect man” could only be seen on tv’s, the silver screen and on the pages of story books and novels I’ve read.
During time, men had evolved into this being that no one can understand the totality of him.
Men in general are most likely the most insensitive beings on this planet. Insensitivity happens by choice because all humans have feelings. It’s just that men pretend not to feel and acts so blindly so they won’ see. They become unaware of the feelings of the people
around them. They don’t realize that they are causing pain. It’s as if emotions are irrelevant and that it can be brushed off and forgotten.
Men have animalistic behaviors which tend to come out when they see women in sexy clothing. Like a mad dog, they can’t contain their drools. Their eyes grow bigger that its usual size. They gawk at the sight of these women. It’s like their brains are located in their groins. And based on my friends who are men, mostly, they are only after sex.
Men nowadays are egoistic beings. They don’t like their egos being stepped on. For them, it would be like being degraded as a man. Their machismo would be lost once their ego is targeted.
In the aspect of courtship, men can be the meekest of all people. They show off by treating the girl that they are courting with utmost respect, care and supposedly express their undying “love”
towards her. Buys her chocolates and roses, text her very now and then, goes out with her and watch movie together. But when the courtship ends, and the woman oh so willingly says “YES” and that she loves him too, all those things would turn into crap. Eventually, the “real” he slowly surfaces, which is devastatingly the total opposite of the person who had courted her. The roses
and chocolates no longer came, lesser text messages, no more going out, and definitely no more movies together. Totally snubbing the woman and takes her for granted.
Another thing is that what men term as friendship is merely a partnership with a collection of reciprocal interests and an exchange of favors – in fact, it is but a trade in which self-love
always expects to gain something.
Most men don’t know how to keep their word. Just like what Swift said. “Promises and pie-crust are made to be broken.” Men make promises to their women only to find out in the end that it’s not going to happen. And with this, men become liars in every way. They will make the women believe in everything they say, but then again, all were just lies formulated in order to capture the women’s attention, interest and sympathy.
All of these things are unbelievably true. And sometimes, it just makes me wish that I could go back.. Back to when the only guy in my life was my father, my only best friend is my mother, and anything could be healed with a band-aid and lollipop. But those days no longer exists. What’s real is here and now.
With all of these things, I perceive men today as TOTAL JERKS.
The point here is that men have dark sides, but they also have a good side. It only depends on which side you choose to look into and embrace. Now you may realize that there is no such thing as the perfect man. He simply doesn’t exist in this world. What can only be seen here is the right guy who’s meant for a woman out there.
The things that I’ve written here are the majority of what men are like in this day and age. Still there are a few good men walking around this planet. Though the chances of finding one are 1 in
a billion, you must not lose hope. You just have to wait for him to come your way. That someone might be “the one” whom you can grow old with despite the odds of facing the personality of men today. So if you ever find that “someone”, who’s the opposite of my statements here, don’t let him slip away. I know I won’t, coz I’ve already have one of the best.
