Lately, I am seeing a lot of my male friends getting into relationships.
I am writing this very short blog post for them.
This post is for you, guys.
Kawan-kawan,
Navigating a relationship is not easy. It takes a lot of work.
But of all the works needed to be done, there is one thing a guy must do.
If you only do this, the rest of the relationship takes care by itself.
I call it The Most Minimalist Role for A Guy in A Relationship.
It is only eight words, yet very powerful.
The most minimalist role for a guy in a relationship is to………
……..understand the girl more than she understands herself.
Everything else comes second to this.
Everything else should flow from this.
Because……..
……….if you understand the girl more than she understands herself, you know that she needs a man.
And you be that man.
You also know that she needs emotional pampering to feel loved.
And you make her feel loved.
You also know that she needs sex to feel a deep connection with you.
And you give her sex.
In return, she gives you Female Affection.
“When love beckons to you follow him,
Though his ways are hard and steep.
And when his wings enfold you yield to him,
Though the sword hidden among his pinions may wound you.
And when he speaks to you believe in him,
Though his voice may shatter your dreams as the north wind lays waste the garden.”
–Kahlil Gibran–
