The 5 Kinds of Women....Mama Mia!

You know her; she is always helpful,full of tips, advice on almost any issue and self sacrificing (sometimes to a fault). She is so confident, believes so much in herself, is very street smart and in some cases book smart plus one more thing; very passionate.

Mama Mia is not very particular about her looks; her fashion sense is based on her background and what appeals to her generally but you will never find her waving her beauty as a weapon or tool for getting ahead except in very extreme cases (but this is not usually her style).  She is very industrious and when faced with the option of going into business, she picks more than one; combining domestic ,feminine, talent based businesses (like catering, fashion, etc ) with trading (in any fast moving consumer good of her choice) and any other line of business plus MORE. This lady can actually have multiple streams of income because she has loads of passion and enough drive for more than one human being.

If she chooses to pursue a career, she is usually passionate about her job, very hardworking and committed to her employers but somehow she does not really get ahead too quickly because she is overly self  sacrificing and loses plenty of opportunities to shine.

This lady has the same desire for success and financial freedom as the cream doll but she takes so much pride in herself and her ability to get to the top by applying her self so when it comes to relationships, you find out that somehow she manages to pick or attract men who are just starting up in life. She picks guys who have “potential” so they search for the perfect job for him together, move into a rented apartment and pay for it together and she generally assists in every way she can especially financially because she usually brings in more money than he does due to her very industrious nature and usually has lots of helpful friends because of her self sacrificing ways.

Deep down, this lady cares a lot about her comfort level (and that of her family) and how outsiders perceive her (or them) and until her man can run the home to a satisfactory level, she continually pushes herself to do more and make more money. This sometimes leads her to become quite discontent when she pauses to compare herself with other women.

She is a very optimistic person and believes the best for the future but prefers to be in full control of her future home and circumstances so her choice in men is always based on the desire to grow together. Now, as to the issue of whether the man she chooses is worth her sacrificial and emotional investment will depend on loads of factors that do not concern us in this article for now.

If her car has a problem, she usually knows exactly what the problem is and sometimes can fix it herself. so at a busy junction, her car breaks down, she would either attack the issue herself or call the mechanic then tell her husband all about it when she gets home or even days later.

Relationship squabbles with her man arise from his misinterpreting her passionate nature, belief in him and  initial self sacrificing ways to mean she is blindly loving and submissive. He is then  later surprised  by her determined strong will to succeed with or without him and this with time strikes  him like a seeming lack of submission or regard for him. On her part, if he does not buckle up quickly from Mr. potential to Mr. productive, she becomes discontented because deep down she ties true leadership to financial provision and cannot keep respecting or pretend to be respecting him if he does not provide visionary leadership, financial muscle or both.

Mama Mia has loads of friends and people who are grateful to her for all her helpful advice, tips and assistance over time so she also gets gifts and favors from men and women alike. If you find her as a single mom, it will only be because the man with “potential” abandoned her for a “more submissive woman” most likely after she had helped him to the top or because she left him when she realized his “potential” will never mature into a product. 

To help mama mia avoid poor choices, she will need to deal with her self sacrificing ways and realize that she too deserves the best things life has to offer therefore giving herself a chance when the opportunities arise…. even in her choice of men.

If you are a man involved with mama mia, just learn to love her, encourage  her to be a woman and allow you care for her as she deserves. Provide leadership and make good financial decisions and you will surely get the best of her.
