In this month's Cosmo there's an amazing article called 'Why do men have to do the chasing?' by Stuart Heritage, which I believe is just pure genius- if you have time, you should definitely check it out- and really got me thinking! It explains that some men hate the chase and that it leaves you in a complete ball of nerves a.k.a not the most attractive look ever! So why can't girls bite the bullet and do the chasing themselves?
...Why don't we?
Traditionally, it's the guy that does the serious stuff! The first date, the will he/won't he call me, the ditching the plans! And us girls? We simply do the flirting and get to play the games of receiving the desperate phone call to only leave it two more weeks just so we don't look needy! But, is this fair? In this day and age, women are on the climb. We're the head of companies, the trousers in the relationships and the ever so reliant agony aunts. So why aren't we in charge of the chase?
My conclusion is that girls seem to think that they have enough troubles! 'Body image' is something that can knock a girls confidence so far down that it may never be seen again. So how is any self- respecting woman meant to walk up to a guy and take the first step, when really her mind is worrying if you can see her bingo wings in that top? The fact is that men may be a complete ball of nerves, but women would be to the point of breaking; since when was that attractive? We wouldn't want to put ourselves out after all. And anyway, what's wrong with a little tradition? xoxo
