One thing

 They only want one thing. They (men) are only after one thing from you a female girl woman. Grandma Sarah repeated this to me for many years 10 15 50 years and I was in denial of her words refusing to believe what she said was true. Defiant, I tried to prove her wrong and I failed completely. 

And if they dont want your sex they are there for the money. The goodies. The food. Something they can get out of you, something they can get you to do like jobs and tasks they dont want to do so they can spend their time doing what they want and getting more money for themselves.

They will take it all. Sex and the money material things and work. They will take what you give whatever they can get.

If I say that took me 2 hours or 6 hours to do he they will say its no big deal its nothing.

And the more things I you do for him or them the more worthless I become in his eyes and in his mind. His opinion of me lowers with each thing I do for free. As if I should be charging him money for every task I perform and each gesture which shows I was prepared and thinking ahead. 

A real man wants to do and buy for the woman he loves. He doesnt keep track of every penny he spends every gift he gives and remind her of all of it forcing her to state the many things she does and how much money it would cost if he had to pay for her services.

A person man or woman who doesnt love is resentful of doing anything and views the other person as a pain in their ass obligation and duty.
