And more often than not you are the one not wanting to make things work, even with the girl does.
I believe this is where it went wrong, except for our character incompatibility. A successful relationship is very much like a dance - the man leads, the woman follows. In my case, she wasn't willing to do any work to follow my lead. Sure, she probably wanted to make things work, but the problem was she thought she doesn't have to invest or sacrifice anything in order to make it work.
I often ponder about it, as before Mrs. Marriage Material I had a brief fling with a girl who was anything but marriage material. However, with her I had both great chemistry and character compatibility. She was actually the complete opposite. Life sometimes truly works in mysterious ways.
I disagree that it's the man leads and the woman follows. And I think that this is where men often go wrong with women. They think of what they want, their way, and the woman's flaws etc etc.
A relationship is an equal dance.
When we reach a world where people treat each other with respect, pride and dignity, both genders will benefit.
