 How πŸ”₯ to notice a πŸ’― Good Man πŸ§” With Good Man, I’m not referring to a β€œNice Guy” πŸ’― (see previous 🌈 post for πŸŽ‰ definition). πŸ˜‚ I’m talking about a πŸ”₯ man who is and wants πŸ’― good, but who also knows 🌈 and loves boundaries. A Good Man πŸ˜‚ is confident, and kind. πŸ’― He knows how to say No. πŸ’― He treats you with respect, and expects πŸ˜‚ you to treat him with respect, and if you don’t, he’ll πŸŽ‰ simply move on, unlike the Nice Guy who sticks around because he needs validation from you. A Good Man wants to get 🌈 married, and doesn’t πŸ˜€ play games. He wants to be the πŸ˜€ man of one πŸ˜€ woman, a good woman, whom he 🌈 can raise good kids with. Even if he doesn’t want 🌈 kids, if they happen to come along, he’ll take on the πŸ˜‚ job as a dad with joy. πŸŽ‰ A πŸ€” Good Man 🌈 knows how to lead, and how 🌈 to encourage others to lead. πŸŽ‰ He gives space for others to try new things, and encourages them πŸ”₯ even if πŸ˜€ they fail. A 🌈 Good Man 🌈 can spot the difference πŸ‘ between πŸ€” someone πŸ‘ who needs πŸ’― a second πŸ˜€ chance πŸŽ‰ to succeed, and one who πŸŽ‰ has decided to πŸ€” fail no matter how πŸ’― many πŸ€” chances they get. 🌈 A Good Man is authentic and speaks the truth even when πŸ”₯ it's πŸ’― uncomfortable.
