Girl vs Woman

I got this idea from another blog entry I read. I was raised by strong women and about to be married to one. I also grew up among girls, had my first girlfriend at the age 18. In the roughly ten years I spent in the dating world, I have dated girls and women alike. Here is some of the differences I have noticed over the years between the two. Now, being a girl is not a bad thing. All women were once girls, but at some point in life a girl must make the transition into womanhood. The ideal thing is for that point to come sometime in your 20s. If you are 30something and still have most of the attribute I will list below for girls, please kindly take this moment to slap yourself (I am just kidding, its never too late to change). But, seriously age doesn't matter a whole lot here, you can be 45 years old and still have that girl-mentality. In that case, only God can help you out. On the other side, I have seen several 20 year olds with strong woman-mentality. Like I said, age can be nothing but a number. Most of these can be applied to men vs boys also. A woman builds her home, a girl simply just doesn't care. A woman knows her man pretty well, she knows that he is very strong in some areas and she knows his area of weakness also, but she still trust him to lead his house. A girl, well she just has no clue in this matter. A woman knows herself and what she wants, and that does not change easily. A girl is still trying to figure all these out. A woman knows how to have good fun without compromising and disrespecting herself, A girl thinks that everything that is fun to good. A girl mopes around, waiting for her man to read her mind and figure out what her issue is. A woman just tells him what’s going on. A girl plays emotional games, testing a man’s feelings for her. A woman trusts her man’s feelings and is honest about her needs and wants. A woman loves you for through the good and the bad times. A girl has no clue what true love is. A girl is constantly worried about one thing or another. A woman is pretty self-assured A girl constantly compares her man to others. A woman reinforces her man’s manliness. A girl will date a guy just to avoid being alone. A woman spends her alone time working on herself to be the right woman. A woman uses constructive criticism to make her man better, A girl is not sure how that works. A girl’s outfit shows how sexy she is, A woman’s outfit is modest and commands respect. A girl orders a salad. A woman orders a steak, vegetables, AND the salad bar. To a girl, her appearance is the most important thing, but a woman realize that there are things that are more important. A girl has enemies and people she does not speak to, A woman.. just doesn't. A girl cares about herself and herself alone. A woman cares for herself and other people also. A girl calls another girl b**** and fight about petty things. A woman just has more class than that. A girl don't talk to some people who are ‘beneath’ her. A woman displays respect and kindness to everyone. Women do house works, girls don't Girls want to be like and adore celebrities, women don't
