3 Reasons Why Women Struggle To Trust Other Women

We know how the minds of our gender operate, and honestly, we're afraid of it.

Everything seems to be a game to the women of our generation. Love, emotions, and physique are ways that women can get ahead of other women or manipulate them.

It is terribly tragic that this immature mentality has plagued our generation, but it is not unrecognized. Women know how other women think. We know their motives, methods, and tricks. So, we know what actions from other women warrant suspicion. Here are 3 reasons why women struggle to trust other women.

1.) Promiscuity

Revealing attire is a red flag. It is hard to trust you when your social media profiles are covered in pictures of seductive poses and suggestive captions.

It is your body, and you can wear whatever you like. But, it does influence the way that you are perceived. It does cause other women to question your values (whether you like it or not).

It is suggestive, and that is enough to make any woman cautious of your motives.

2.) Competitive Nature

Some women desire to beat the rest of us at everything. They always try to over-dress, belittle us in conversation to make themselves look better, and go out of their way to make sure that every guy we are interested in knows who they are.

These girls want the confirmation that they are more desirable than the people around them. They make other women uneasy because we don't know what they are willing to do to "win".

Will they try to sabotage our relationship out of jealousy? Will they tell our secrets in order to make themselves look better in comparison? We don't know, and we usually aren't willing to find out.

3.) Men

Well, this is the big one. Women always have a hard time trusting other women when it comes to men. The reason is simple. We have all seen a woman shamelessly throw herself at a taken man. While we may trust our partner, we are inclined to be angry that another female is purposely trying to lead him into temptation. We have all witnessed a woman's lack of moral code when it comes to what (or who) she wants.

We know that some women will do anything to try and find happiness. If that means meddling in someone's relationship, they will.

If a woman is constantly trying to talk to another woman's man, we're suspicious of her. After all, we don't really believe the "Oh you have nothing to worry about, he's like my best friend" line (we weren't born yesterday).

If a woman always seems to have a crowd of men flocking her heels, we want to know why.

It may not be fair, but it's true. Women don't get along with women who have no boundaries. Women don't like women who have no self control. Women are skeptical of other women because that is the world we live in. Values are slowly diminishing and more people let their wishes dictate their lifestyle. Relationships and morally intellectual decisions are overshadowed by the need to improve one's own image and pursue selfish desires.

No woman is perfect, and not all women are untrustworthy. But, we do know how the minds of our gender operate, and honestly, we're afraid of it.

18 Things I Want To Do Now That I'm 18

I'm technically an adult, so I'm legally required to live a little, right?

For the entirety of my high school career, I was always seen as the goody-two-shoes. I never got in trouble with a teacher, I kept stellar grades, and when I wasn't doing extracurricular activities, I was at home studying. Even when I did go out, it was usually with a bunch of fellow band geeks. The night would end before 11:00 PM and the only controversial activity would be a fight based on who unfairly won a round of Apples-to-Apples when someone else clearly had a better card (I promise I'm not still holding a grudge).

Now that I'm officially an adult, I want to pursue some new things. I want to experience life in a way that I never allowed myself to do prior to entering college. These are the years that I'm supposed to embark on a journey of self-discovery, so what better way to do that than to create a bucket list?
