Women are just like cats!

When you stop investing time in a woman, or cease trying to hold on to her, she will begin to think you no longer care for her. She will conclude that your heart has turned away from her. She will come to believe that you no longer love her, no longer care.

A woman wants to see you investing time in her, making continuous effort to win or keep her. This is what she considers love. Look around you—there are precious few men who have spent time and effort pursuing a woman and failed to win her. Women's love is captive to the mobile phone, and men's to cunning words.

Whether you've been with her for two months or two years matters little. If you don't show her your effort, she will eventually suffer from insecurity and doubt, and will conclude on her own that she is trying to hold onto someone, or continuously investing time in someone, who no longer wants her. She alone desires the relationship to survive, while you couldn't care less.

A woman seeks attention, time, wants to see your effort for her sake. Deep down, she wants you to pursue her, so she can glimpse that longing for her in your eyes. She wants you to convince her that she is your everything. This doesn't mean you must perform grand gestures for her. Small joys and tender care are enough to win her heart.

If you don't make even this much effort, she will one day assume your feelings for her have faded, that you no longer wish to keep her, that she can no longer make you happy. She will think perhaps you no longer want her in your life at all, and this very thought will gradually build the conviction within her that there's truly no point in trying so hard for you anymore.

She might even assume that surely someone else has entered your life now, which is why you no longer care for her as before. Women can accept the death of their beloved, but they simply cannot tolerate the existence of another woman in that person's life.

Why does this happen? Perhaps while she continues trying her utmost to stay with you, you're making no comparable effort, or if you are, you're not showing it to her; perhaps you're not doing even half of what she does for you.

Women are somehow like cats—they constantly crave affection and attention, want time. They can tell who is making sincere effort for them and who isn't. This is how they judge someone, and if they don't find what satisfies them, they consider leaving.

This is why you'll notice unemployed men who can't secure jobs still manage to find girlfriends. They spend all their time on their girlfriends, don't study properly for employment; naturally, later they lose both girlfriend and job. To women, love means undivided attention—it hardly matters if the man is worthless.

Always remember: the effort required to keep someone is far less than what's needed to bring them back once they've left.

Let me end with a story. A man had a motorcycle accident and was hospitalized. From there, he calls his wife, shouting as he tells her what happened...

"Priti, I'm finished! Both my legs are shattered to pieces. Eight stitches in my head, pain all over my body—I can't move, two fingers on my left hand are broken. I'm finished... I'm finished! Come to the hospital quickly! Call this number—it's Sheila's; I've lost my mobile."

"Alright... but who is Sheila?"
