And even if you find your "Knight in Shining Armor" will he be all he's cracked up to be?  Will love, romance last forever with the religious fervor of its consummation?  Will he be there when you need him, fill your needs for intimacy, help you raise those kids you create, be a good lover, provide your needs, satisfy your wants, delight your desires?  What if he doesn't rise to meet your expectations and fulfill  the dreams created throughout your life, designed by you, and what you read, saw and heard in movies, magazines and mass media marketing?

Who benefits from those images projected into your psyche from the masses?  Certainly not you.  You're alone, lonely, don't fit the "model", can't find him, and when you did, he didn't really "fit" so you settled for what you got, deluded yourself it would "work", gave away parts of yourself so it would, and low and behold, much to your surprise, it didn't, or isn't, and now what do you do?

In the final analysis the only person you really have is you.  How can you be happy with that?  After all, could that possibly be enough?

Even if you manage to create the relationship with "the one and only", can you be there, present, fully, and not compromise so much you lose any sense of self? And does it matter when you really didn't know who you were in the first place, socialized to be a Pleaser, give till it hurts and led to believe by doing so you were a "good person, good woman, good girl."  Oh come now, when will you, we, us women ever learn?  

We serve no one unless we empower ourselves, recover or discover our own self esteem, become the Goddess so our men can rise to meet us, and become the Gods we need to be a balanced world.  

We need a partnership society.  The patriarchy's dead, old hat, on the way out and no longer serves any of us when it repeatedly leads to war and perpetuates the battle of the sexes with it's sexist inequality that resonates in every country round the world.
