They say if you treat a man with respect,
He'll always respect you.
They say if you want a happy relationship,
You have to be willing to sacrifice.
They say if you establish a successful career,
He will admire your initiative.
They say if you praise your man,
He will feel loved.
They say if you ask his advice about things,
He will feel needed.

So, I listened to everything they said and
He said, "I need some space."

They say if you forgive a man,
He will truly be remorseful
They say if he apologizes,
A "nice" woman would understand.
They say if you believe in him,
He will prove himself trustworthy.
They say if you are patient,
He won't feel so pressured.
Therefore,
I waited.
And I listened to everything they had to say.

So, where is my man now ?
With someone else.

And when I asked what I should do next.
"They" didn't have a thing to say.
