“A woman will always sacrifice herself if you give her the opportunity. It is her favorite form of self-indulgence.”- W. Somerset Maugham

If so, indulge us with an example. :)
 
What kind of example are you asking for? Personal experience or something that has happened in view of the public eye?
 
It's so true as to be axiomatic, in fact.

Think about it. Almost every woman who has children will buy her kids tons of clothes and such and not much of anything for herself. Also, they tend to give up their own identities the second they fall in love with a man. Everything becomes wrapped up around pleasing other people.

+1 for being a man :)

Not true of American broads in 2008.

I'm not sure if I am totally understanding the quote but...


I need to be needed and have my own personal fan club (my offspring and hubby)whom I will sacrifice myself for and love doing it...pretty much.

Most recently this means not going to a "girl's only weekend retreat" (through church)with about 20 friends at a mountain lodge. My husband really needs me around on that weekend because that is when he is putting deals together and I don't want him to have to be distracted from that by worrying about childcare, ect. So, I will stay home. Even the other ladies don't understand it.

In the Summer when we can afford to take a nice vacation somewhere as a family it will be worth the delayed gratification.

I could be misunderstanding the question so I'll go have some more coffee and be back.

Oh dang girl...right there you've got me wrapped up like a neat little package. BUT, I have changed so much and learned a lot about what really makes me happy!

It does not make me a happier mom and wife to look the part of a self-sacrificing woman. I've triend it and it sucked. I get so sick of those moms who do this! Looking like crap, therefor feeling like it too, for the sake of the family is not an effective way to cope! It's really a problem out there with moms i think.

So, to prove it I'm gonna go today and get a $50 haircut! LOL! I'll post pics later! :lmao:

Awesome girlie! I bought 3 DVD's for myself last week -- a pilates, a latin dance and a ballroom dancing one with Edyta from dancing with the stars. That was my step to getting back to being "me." Dang, I have a dance background and found the dancing with the stars video VERY COMPLEX. The latin dance had lots of complicated moves, too, but nothing like the jive and samba moves Edyta was throwing down...lol. Anyway, I got really into it and exercised over 2 hours last night just testing out my new videos...lol.

That is so cool! I get sweaty dancing with my 4 and 5 year old almost every day. I do NOT have a dance background though. DH and I want to take lessons though. We are so inspired by Dancing with the Stars. Great fun! Also, a really great way to get back to YOU.

I thank my daddy for showing me the light when I was younger in regards to this comment. He always told me never to lose myself NO MATTER what or who came into my life.

I must admit, it was hard finding a guy who did not mind that my career was going to be number 1 in many situations. It was even harder to find a guy who was able to allow me my freedoms while married too. I got the bestest hubby in the world. I really do!

Mommy gotta love herself first in order for her to love at all. :)

Now, I would give my life for Brianna if I had to make that choice.
 
girls will do crazy ass shit for a man they're in love with.

if the guy has the girl tripping.....they'll go to the ends of the earth for that person.

until the guy starts being nice :rolleyes:
it's why women stay in abusive/destructive relationships

personal experience talking here

Dancing with yourself or are you going to make Devin dance with you? :worried:

 
I'd say I've made more sacrifices for my family than anyone else. But I did "go to the ends of the earth" for my first love. I'd probably do the same for J, but he knows my tendencies there and encourages me to look after my own needs first.

The key to this entire statement is your "girl" comment. Empty headed girls are a dime a dozen it seems. If anyone has to put on some fake ass pony show to have someone love 'em, they need to stay single.

I think the father figure in these chicks lives must be lacking too.

Funny, most men can't deal with a strong woman either. She's called a bitch if she does NOT need a man in her life to "take care" of her. Go figure.

LOL you beat me to it. I had a bad image of little denny not being able to play with the other kids, because he has to go straight home and dance with his mommy.

i was too stupid to realize this until recently.

could have saved myself alot of grief


You learned younger than most guys I know. I know some who never learned, and was surprised everytime it happened.

He will be doing more than laughing when Uncle Jack and I take him to see some girls dancing.

CM is a nice lady. I would have told you," Unless your legs are broken, get your own damn coffee". :)

lol OT, sorta, but that reminds me of a meeting with a client senior VP at a Fortune 500 - as we enter the conference room he says "would anyone like some coffee?" and the freshly minted Ivy League MBA noob on my team says "I'll take mine black thanks" ...... everybody stops breathing and all eyes turn to him .... he says "oh, I guess i should get it myself right" oolloollo

Oh man! I would have loved to have seen the look on the Sr. VP's face.

I walked into a conference room to take a deposition of a defendant who I had subpoenaed to appear at out offices for deposition. I walked into the room, and the dude's attorney must have assumed I was the secretary and asked for coffee!!! I brought him and his client coffee and then said, "Now that you two are all comfy, are you ready for me to depose you?"

Same deer in headlights look you're describing!

But see? Service is a two way street :)

curvymommy is right again!
 
vixensghost said:
Can we call it something other than service? I detest the thought of either one of us "having" to service each other. ;)
Sorry, that's an outdated church word I suppose.

How about kindness? Being courteous? Being a good hostess?

I'm not talking about being someones's bitch, lol.

I guess the word service is not nice to most people. It goes in the same catagory with submissivness and that is icky to most women too.

Oh...I get it (slaps forhead) I think I know what kind of service you mean. Sorry, :verygood:

That one is good. I also like Rock the Cradle of Love. I still remember the chic in the video.

Crawling across the floor on her hands n knees... oh yeah! That vid's hot. :)

There is some lame commercial that has a guy lip-singing Rebel Yell at a BBQ. Almost ruined the song for me. :(

I didn't read the rest of the thread but yes, this was me back in my twenties and early 30's.

I got over that RIGHT QUICK.

Now tell me what YOU CAN DO FOR ME.

This new approach is working out much better for me. :)
