How to love maturely without falling back into the mystical trap of illusion

  Sometimes the night greets me with a strange sensation — not so much pain as a question , one that slips into the periphery of my thoughts like a light unsure of whether it wishes to remain. After every disappointment there arrives this moment: the moment when you no longer ask “Why did it happen?” but begin to listen to a quieter, almost prayerful inner register: “How can it not happen again?” Not as self-blame. Not as fear of falling once more. But as the desire to learn to love without breaking apart, without turning love into a field where your own shadows outweigh the light. I write these lines as if in a diary, though I’m not entirely sure whether I’m speaking to myself, to time, or to that invisible presence I sometimes call soul , sometimes God , and sometimes simply my own inner ground .

The intersection point

 People of any gender can be intimidated or threatened by someone who they perceive as strong, confident, or assertive, regardless of the person's gender.

However, some women may be intimidated by strong men because they challenge traditional gender roles and expectations, which can be a threat to their sense of safety and power. For example, a strong, dominant man may make some women feel as though their opinions and decisions are not valued or heard.

It's important to note that this is a social and cultural issue, and not a universal truth or a trait inherent to all women. Many women respect and admire strong men and find their confidence and strength to be attractive and inspiring.

As with strong women, a man being strong doesn't necessarily mean he's aggressive or overbearing. Strength can take many forms, including emotional intelligence, assertiveness, and the ability to overcome challenges and adversity. Ultimately, it's up to each individual to determine their own definition of strength and what they find attractive in a partner or friend.

The intersection point where both strong men and strong women may be seen as intimidating or threatening to others is likely rooted in societal expectations and cultural norms around gender roles and power dynamics. When someone challenges these norms and defies traditional expectations, they may be perceived as a threat to the status quo, and this can lead to fear or intimidation.
