Awareness can be a good thing! Self-awareness can be a good thing… when used for such things as self-accountability, humility… But when they are used to inflame our egos or to stand in judgment over others… I notice that quite often in the little town I live in, people are very aware -and very self-aware… however, in many instances, these people are neither humble nor unselfish… They’re leery, and very quick to stereotype!*
*Having lived in this town for some 35 years I noticed a lot of hispanics are racist against their own race. I notice a lot of Hispanic women dating dating white men. I noticed a lot of Hispanic women dating white men. I even knew a Hispanic woman who flat out admitted she refused to date Hispanic men. I believe it had something to do with her father and her mother’s marriage -and his conduct? A lot of Hispanic men in this area are known for their infidelity and their tempers. A lot of women in this area who have been married and have and have children have given up on men altogether and gone to women 🤷‍♂️ Between the men in this town who are servicing multiple women (a by-product of “machismo”)* and the women in this town who have gone lesbian….. Let us just say I’ve been single for 4 1/2 years and that doesn’t seem to be changing any time soon.
*Women have a certain standard when it comes to men that only about 10% of the male population realistically live up to. And another 30% are pretenders….. And these are the men women have a tendency to gravitate towards. The 10% of course are legit, and honest – which is part of the reason they’re legit. That other 30%, the faker’s… they have a complex, and are out for whatever they can get, as often as they can get it -any way they can get it. So what you have are a bunch of women running around satisfied by men like this -running around, acting like they don’t need anything, or anyone… Then slowly coma as they come to find out in certain cases… they become bitter. But it’s our own fault for insisting on the type of guy… They don’t want a regular guy who in many cases happens to be honest and humble.They try to go for the cream of the crop -and get burned -whenever we place ourselves ahead of others… 🤔
Well anyways, what happens in a community such as this is you get an over abundance of women who perceive themselves as being satisfied and which develop an attitude of “I don’t need anything or anyone”. Or, you end up with an abundance of women who have been burned and with an attitude of “screw men”. I see both running around here all the time. Why do you think I’m single 🤷‍♂️ I make no effort whatsoever to compete with these men with their fancy perfume their fancy cars and their fancy clothes. And you know what, women hardly notice me! Oh well, just keep doing what you’re doing and you’ll keep getting what you’re getting!
