I saw Steve Harvey say that there are three ways a man shows his love, He provides, profess, and protect.That got me thinkiing. I only need one of the three, I need him to profess his love Without words. I would support myself unless he is rich enough to marry me but then that would change everything. And I don't need him to protect me either. how about your. If you are male, do you agree with the statement .? If not please tell me why. And if you want or have a relationship with men , what do you really need out of the three p's?

There is more to support then monatary. The support that I think he is refering to is emotional based. Of the most common problems I hear about in relationshiops is the lack of support. Support is believing in someone, giving them your vote of confidence they can soar high in the sky.
As for protect, think again of protect your heart. He is keeping it safe, never will he be the one that hurts it nor will he allow another to. Protection doesnt have to be just physical just as provides doesnt have to be monatry.

I am doomed.I wouldn't look to a guy I am with to support me in that way.I wouldn't expect it. It would be the biggest surprise if it happened. It isn't his fault, I just never looked at men in that way.I guess that is why I chose the profess than any other P.I guess I would give my heart and just wait for it to be broken.That's what I get for being a pessimist.Thanks for your response. So you agree with the three P's. do you do all three for your steady?

Live life under the ultimate P .... Passion. Passion for every breath, passion for those around you. I dont limit those three P's to just the one im with, but to family friends and try to believe in all people their is the potential, that they are capabliblity to do anything, that they are the most important person in the world, and their life is the most valuble thing there is. I think you will find all three P's in there.
remember life is about passion, its the hub that all other runs on. allow yourself to be passionate and you will find your self willing to trust, to believe to be part of. as long as you hold the passion back you will also hold yourself back and never feel the full connection to another person

Since I have been my sole provider for many years....I can do that on my own....since I have protected myself and my kids for over 30 years....guess I can do that too! Profess.....that would be nice. Basically I would love to find someone who loves me....that would be something that would totally round out my life.

I agree about professing one's love. Protection? Screw that, I can protect myself! I have for enough years, and if I allow a man to do that, I am only becoming dependent on him. Same if I allow him to constantly provide for me. Yeah there have been times when I have asked for a few bucks from Hubby who brings in more than I do, but he knows it would be the same if I were the one to make more than him, not because he's a man.

When I first wrote this post,I hadn't felt my heart melt the way it does when you hear "I Love You".Now I will take a "I Love You" over providing or protecting.
