Very astute and sensitive Susan and goes a long way towards describing what men really want. Probably an impossibility for some women to either grasp this or be able to do anything about it if they do grasp it. But then, my experiences are the basis for the comment.. and not all men have suffered my fate(s). Not blaming women for my relationship problems as such...I'm sure I was not all I should have been either! I was certainly "expendable"
Best wishes.
