● Essentially, men remember facts and figures, but women record not only the facts but also every detail of the
               emotion that they're feeling. So, when Maria recalled a fight with Joe, she'd not only remember the facts, but she'd
                                                             15
               re-experience her sadness, anger, and fear all over again.
               ● Human females also can feel an attraction to the protection and security that a mature male offers. And for this
               reason, when it comes to choosing a mate, many younger women see the benefits of a well-established older man.

               ● I said to Diane, “If you want Tom to hold hands with you and be more romantic, you have to be nice to him. And
                       nice doesn't just mean sex.”

               ● The best way to learn a man's wiring is to ask.
               ● What to do for your man: love him in the way he needs it, get involved – have fun, make sex a priority, and be
               aware of your “love signals.”

               ●   The truth about taking care of yourself: What is on the outside matters to him on the inside. When they see the
               effort to take care of ourselves physically, they feel loved. Effort does not mean having to be perfect, or a bikini
               model.

               A Woman’s Beauty

               Very few will argue the power of a woman. Looking beyond our physical beauty, we have the ability to build up or
               tear down. We can either use our beauty as a life-flourishing instrument or as a lethal weapon. I have found the heart
               of the woman will reveal which one you get. However, before we go any further, let's define what true beauty is. In
               their compelling book Captivating: Unveiling the Mystery of a Woman’s Soul, John, and Stasi Eldredge do a
               wonderful job describing beauty:

               ● Points to eternity and says, “All shall be well.”
               ● Brings true peace, a sense of calmness unparalleled to anything else
               ● Invites
               ● Commands your attention
               ● Makes you desire to get back to it, to spend time with it
               ● Nourishes
               ● Makes you crave to be united with it, to be one with it
               ● Comforts
               ● Is transcendent: "It is our most immediate experience of the eternal."
               ● Is life-offering
               ● Is life-saving
               ● Is a relational specialist
               ● Is tender
               ● Is merciful
               ● Bears hope
               ● Is alluring
               ● Captivates

               All those sound amazing, don't they? If you're a man, I bet you're thinking, Too bad they aren't all like that! If you're
               a woman, you're probably thinking, Wow, I want to be like that. Gentlemen, what if I told you that you have a role in
               your woman becoming all those things? Ladies, what if I told you that you already have all that you need to get
                                                                              21
               there? Here's how: "A woman becomes beautiful when she knows she's loved.  But how do we know we are loved?
               Can you take a guess?
