Women With High Standards

from THINK BEFORE YOU SLEEP · host THINK BEFORE YOU SLEEP

She wants a man who is tall, rich, handsome, and emotionally available. She wants him to open doors, plan dates, and text back immediately. She wants him to be ambitious but never too busy for her. She wants him to be confident but never arrogant. She wants him to be vulnerable but never weak.In this episode, I examine the phenomenon of women with high standards. The standards are not the problem. The problem is that many of these women do not meet their own standards. They want a man who is fit but do not exercise. They want a man who is financially secure but spend beyond their means. They want a man who is emotionally intelligent but have not done their own therapy.The episode explores the disconnect between what women demand and what they offer. The high standards are not a sign of self-worth. They are a sign of entitlement. The women who complain that there are no good men are often the same women who have rejected good men for not being good enough. The good men have stopped trying. They have moved on to women who appreciate them.Turn down the lights, put on your headphones, and press play because women with high standards are not the problem. Women with high standards and nothing to offer are.
