DavidWolfe.comA strong woman can come off as intimidating. She knows what she wants in life and she’s on a mission to get it. She works hard, she’s independent, and she doesn’t need a relationship to define her. While she might not need a relationship to make her happy, don’t confuse that with not wanting one. A strong woman still craves a connection. She wants someone to love and spend time with. If you’re dating a strong woman, here are a few things to remember:
1. A strong woman is usually self-sufficient. Expect her to want to take control every once in a while and handle a situation on her own.
2. A strong woman is often creative. Have an open mind to new ideas or conversations. Dinner at the same restaurant for every date probably won’t interest her for long.
3. A strong woman does not want to waste her time on gossip or drama, so don’t waste your time bringing it up.
4. A strong woman is comfortable asking for what she needs or wants, so expect an open and often direct line of communication, with a little sugar-coating thrown in every once in a while.
5. A strong woman knows how to take care of herself. She’ll love having you around, but don’t get offended if she doesn’t need your help.
6. A strong woman knows what she wants, and she is most likely on a mission to get it. Her goals are important to her.

9. A strong woman has clear goals and dreams, and she’ll probably expect you to have them also. She’ll want to know what your ambitions are, and how you’re going to work to achieve them.
10. A strong woman has some fight in her, so don’t expect her to give up when things get a little tough. She’ll search for several solutions before throwing in the towel.
11. A strong woman will realize when things aren’t working. If something isn’t quite right, expect her to approach you about it and have a much-needed conversation about how to make things right.
12. A strong woman may have walls built up that take time to break down. She knows how to protect herself, so know that trust might be a longer process than you’d like.
