Can you be an "alpha" woman and yet be submissive to a man in a relationship?
But my mother was very strong, too, but she was a silent strong. She was a quiet strong, right? And so she was very submissive to my father. My father led our household very well. We did not want for anything. He provided everything that we needed, spiritually, mentally or spiritually and physically. I wouldn't say emotionally, he didn't, but that's another swell

It's. And I know that in this society I just wanted to add this part. I know that in society now, people have taken submission to be a bad word. They've taken it and women, I'm not going to be submissive to no man. And if that's the way that you feel, by all means, feel the way that you feel. But please don't come on here trying to make me feel like I'm wrong for saying that, right?

So praise be to God. He has taught me Himself the right touch from a man by Him being the man in my life. He has taught me the right submission by me trusting Him, keeping my eyes on Him. Like Peter, when he got out of the boat, he had the faith to see Jesus and to trust Jesus saying, come to me. But it wasn't until he started looking at the storms around him that he sank

And yes, I had to learn that right after my first marriage failed, god showed me that I wasn't being submissive to Him. And so if I couldn't submit to Him, then I definitely wasn't going to submit to a husband, right? And so I had to learn what submission was and I had to learn how to be submissive and how to honor, right? And to obey. And so thank you so much for your response. I so appreciate it

Hey, SIS. Thank you so much for inviting me to this conversation. Personally, I do not subscribe to titles of alpha male and alpha female because that makes no sense to me. When God sees me, he doesn't call me an alpha female or whatever, and I wouldn't want to be labeled an alpha female. Yeah, I have no desire to be considered anything like that whatsoever. I want to be the one that God created me to be

You. I once had a young lady ask me who I was pursuing to date. Was I an alpha male? And I really didn't know how to answer the question because I personally do not identify as an alpha male. If anything, I'm a lone wolf. I don't want to be the Alpha of anything. I am just independent. But of course well, not of course, because maybe some don't know. I am a father and I know how to be that

But then I also say I would like for my husband to be on his healing journey, right? So that we both can go together and move through life together in a good place, right? So I do say those things to God, but at the end of the day, whoever God sends me, that's who it's going to be. And so I don't subscribe to those things. But in this forum and for the sake of dialogue, I'll use those terms

Just like a man can tell when a woman is confident in her womanhood and when she's not in her femininity or in his masculinity, right? You can tell when the other person is. And so for me, if I come across a man who's not as confident, it doesn't mesh well with me. And I can say that because I've been in a relationship before. And he wasn't he wasn't leading our home

Yeah. Andrea I guess for me, I'm attracted to confident women that are very intelligent and strong, but I never need to ask them, are you intelligent? Are you strong? Are you this are I know it's a certain look, it's a certain feel. You just know. And I think those that need to ask probably have trouble knowing, or maybe that's a part of the play

I can tell during their conversation that they're a gentleman. I can tell when we meet because they open the door for me and they're very chivalrous. I was going to say caring, but they're very chivalrous, right. When they're around me and their conversation is as of a gentleman. Right. But when I'm just talking to a guy, for the lack of a better term, just a guy, I can tell the difference. Right?

You. Thank you for your reply. Chat with show. Exactly. It's a vibe, it's a feeling, it's energy, it's the conversation, it's the connection, right? It's all of those things, and you can feel it, right? You can feel it. So thank you for your reply. I appreciate it
And depending on the Mercury is that thing that changes the percentage of Mars and Venus that you want to be that day, that you want to express depending on the situation, like you said. And I think when people stop doing these bipolar labels, people will just be happier. In general, for me personally, I'm not going to talk about relationships more social and work related. I've been told I look alpha female. I've been told I look really like strong female

I can also be a follower because you can't be a good leader if you can't follow. So I can follow as well as lead. So, yeah, it's not one thing. You can be multiple things. And my mother again, was very strong, but she was a quiet strong
