Hello mylotters, haven't you ever heard this? Do you think that this statement is really true ? In my personal experience it is true to some extent, and in some other cases it is not at all.
One of my family member say so about his wife. He said that he is very glad and lucky to have such a woman as his wife.
And I have heard that one of my friends life has gone mad because of his girl friend.
What is you opinion ?

hello wonder,
This will justify your username then (hahahaa)
That depends of course.
History tells a lot.
Woman causes downfalls- not only with men- but a whole kingdom!

Hi wonderboy,
Well I do think not every man or every woman became successful because of their partner. One man may fall down when he has a woman who is self-centered and a big spender. While a man who has a supportive wife/girlfriend might possibly become successful.
So it always depends on what character a woman or a man has. Hence I think... Love, support/respect in each other must go hand in hand.

Yes Of course, there is a woman behind every successful man. By the way may be that woman Helps her husband to work hard and get him reach to his Goal, Or another woman Make up the problems in his life, and get him escape to success Elsewhere.
My best regards for every women.

Hi wonderboy! You left out something from the saying.."for every successful man there is a GOOD woman." I would like to think that the saying is true...since I am a woman..lol. There are good and bad experiences where relationships are concerned for everyone..I guess it is the quality of the relationship one has with their partner as to if the saying rings true.

People use this expression when they want to say that there are women smart and dynamic and these women give advice to their husbands who might be very succesful and famous.History has some examples. You can search over the internet and learn more about it.

I read a bit of one response where it was said "behind every successful man there is a woman" and that usually applies but not always. Your whole question though, I believe there is a woman for every man just as there is a man for every woman. I did not find who I am deeply in love with till almost a year ago.

Good day!
I think that firstly we must define the word - succes, in my opinion, every single person in the world is always (in every single situation) succesful and only that how you react in certain situations really matters and nothing else.
Many people uses word succes for their excuses : "Ohh. This is a bad luck. I'm not succesful. What to do ?" and they can't accomplish their goals anymore. They should keep in mind my previuos statement.
So, I think that for every men/women there are a woman/men with whom he can have perfect relationships, but he/she need to JUST LET IT HAPPEN and open their HEART to such amazing possibilities.
That's onlu my opinion. I appreciate others too.
Have a nice day! Love and light to you all! Defluxe

I think it's the woman that inspires a man to be successful so I believe that in every successful man, there is a woman who inspires him.

I totally agree with that statement.It is know that behind every successful man there is woman.It is definitely true.But we should remember that if there is a man who is successful,then there is a woman who is very successful behind him.if the woman is not successful,the man is never successful of he will absolutely fail.I mean every man needs to be praised.In this way they are inspired to manage what they wish to do.On the contrary if there is a woman who is very successful in her job or carrier,it means that she has got a boyfriend or husband who is so successful.So all people need to have is to be inspired.I mean if someone or something inspires you ,you manage to do your job.So just find someone you love you ....

Yes i believe this, every man can have support of his mother upto 70% of his life and remaining by his. This is true that every one know this. But most of the person don't realize this and search others for their support. I like my mom and dad very much and she has done for me a lot. I don't know how can i pay for it. i have to do something better for them and make them honour. Going ahead for that situation.

Not necessarily. Remember Samson and Delilah :-) Anyway, women have this kind of power to make a difference in men's lives. Either success or downfall. So everyone should not be dependent also to others but should be, primarily, to themselves.

if you will just focus on the statement, then it can be true. all of the people i know who have been successful in life always have a woman behind them. this woman can be his wife, mother, sister, daughter, friend. actually this is also true the other way around. every successful woman also has a man behind her. as what you have said, one of your friends had a not so successful life because of his girlfriend. this is a totally different scenario from your statement above. because a success of a man always has a woman behind it but a man's failure is not always caused by a woman.

I think the quote you are referring to is "Behind every successful man there is a woman." The behind is a very important word to overlook in this case. The statement seems to say that to be successful a man must have a woman behind him. This may be mostly true when you consider, Moms, Sisters, Teachers, Wifes all can influence a man. But this can also be true of a woman. I think first you must have a person who has success as a goal, then that person will attract others who will help and stand behind them.

Hey savyapat,
SO you mean that women can't do the magic at all the time ?
What is your experience ?

I think it just depends on the individual person. Some people can have a huge effect on another person's life, but it doesn't always mean that it's in the form of encouragement. If you have a mate/spouse that is always putting you down or always trying to discourage you from doing something you really want to do then that person might start to think that the other person is right. They will get discouraged & often times depressed. But if you have a mate/spouse that encourages you & says things like, "There isn't anything you can't do once you put your mind to it" then that person will feel that if someone believes in them then there really isn't anything they can't do. My husband & I are like this. We always try to encourage each other & not just because we are supposed to, but because we really believe in each other. When you love someone that really isn't hard to do & comes as easily as breathing itself.

Yes,it could be true but not all the time. I also believe that in "every fall of a man there's a woman behind". It started at the beginning of time when Eve fooled Adam by eating the forbidden fruit. As of now,female species play a vital role in every men's being.
