11 Differences Between Dating A Girl And A Woman by Tofax: 7:35am On Nov 01, 2013
boy is attracted to girls. A man is attracted to
women. Now, this has nothing to do with the actual
age of a person. I'm referring to maturity, life vision
and stage of life. In fact, some people regardless of
their age, will never really grow up. Also, this isn't
to say that a woman won't ever have "girlish" or
immature tendencies or vice versa. This post refers
to one's maturity and most points would also apply
if you switch the genders as well.
If you are a boy, then expect that you will attract
only girls. However, if you are a man (independent,
knows your worth and value, has a strong moral
compass, is considerate and an able communicator
and doesn't let insecurity dominate your psyche),
then you should be dating a woman. And if you
can't spot the difference just yet, here are some
pointers:
1. A girl throws tantrums. When displeased, upset
or angry, she reacts just as she did as a child when
she didn't get her way with her parents. This often
consists of screaming, pouting, giving the silent
treatment, being passive aggressive and/or
punishing. A woman still feels the emotions of being
upset/displeased, but has cultivated the skill of
responding versus reacting. She comes to the table
as an adult, and communicates clearly what is
bothering her.
2. A girl perceives herself as a princess and
believes people should treat her like so. She is
entitled and feels that she is owed and therefore
expects more than she appreciates. A woman, has
standards (what she holds herself to) not
expectations (what she projects on to others).
3. A girl uses her physical beauty as her currency
and basis of value. A girl may be so used to feeling
validated through her looks and sexuality, that she
uses this as her primary tool to get what she wants
in life. A woman, knows her worth is beyond her
physicality. A woman bases her value on her
intelligence, her strength, her integrity, her values,
her contributions, her humanity.
4. A girl banks on a man to be her financial
strategy. A woman plans to be financially
independent -- she banks on... herself. And if she so
happens to enter a relationship dynamic where it
makes sense for her partner to be the primary
breadwinner, it's considered a bonus, not the
expected life line.
5. A girl sees the world from a place of lack and
scarcity. She competes and will even tear down
another in order to secure resources or a mate. A
woman helps other women. She knows that there's
plenty enough to go around and takes the high road
of integrity to get what she wants.
6. A girl cannot be bothered with anything
domestic and is proud of the fact that she cannot
cook or clean. A woman understands that being
domestic is not a duty, but understands that it is
one way of taking care of herself and others. She
also understands that in the event she wants to
create a family, having a person in the household
who can contribute domestically is important.
7. "A girl wants attention, a woman wants
respect. A girl wants to be adored by many. A
woman wants to be adored by one." -anonymous
8. A girl does not respect her body. She has not
yet understood that her body and heart are sacred,
and that it's important to be mindful of how she
treats it and who she shares it with.
"A girl cherishes handbags, diamonds and
her shoe collection as her prize possessions.
A woman cherishes her health, her sense of
self, and her talents as her greatest assets." -
N. Mah
9. A woman takes the time to reflect on the type
of human she wants to be, the example she wants
to leave and the vision for her life. She has put
thought into her values and what she stands for. A
girl has not established her moral compass or values
and consequently, is often inconsistent.
"After spending time with a girl, you feel
exhausted because she takes more than she
gives. After spending time with a woman,
you feel invigorated, because she empowers
you with possibility, and a passion for life." -
N. Mah
10. A girl has a checklist that prioritizes
superficial qualities above anything else. Here is
an example of how this checklist may look: Hot,
popular, wears skinny jeans, over six feet tall, rich..
This is the checklist of what a woman may look for:
High integrity, intelligent, kind, good communicator,
emotionally available...
Now, a lot of these differences require taking the
time to know someone to figure out if the apple of
your eye is indeed a mature woman, or someone
with an immature mindset. However, one of the
quickest filters that you can notice from the
beginning is this:
11. A girl plays games. A woman doesn't.
