I think I expected men to be strong when I was very young. I began to understnad that I am the person with whom my partner can be whoever he is, and can feel his feelings with. If he needs to cry, it's ok.When we have probelms is when each of us needs the other to be strong at the same time. Otherwise, I try to be strong for him when he needs it and he is strong for me when I need.
I'm sure there are as many dynamics as there are couples, but I do believe that there are women like me, others like me, who accept men as they are.
