All women can be difficult to handle; we know that and we embrace it. But free-willed women are a different breed. I'm not saying they don't care for anyone else the way they care for themselves, but I am saying that they take care of themselves first and foremost. Being in a relationship with a free-willed woman takes more work, especially if he himself is not similar to her. She likes to do what she wants, and not ask or let someone else know. For her, being in a relationship is a tough thing to do. She likes the thought of being in a relationship, but when it comes to the real thing, she doesn't like commitment.

• They usually have a lot of friends. Because generally everyone loves to be around them, their presence has something special to it. Not that this is difficult to deal with, but jealousy can become a factor.

• "Rules" essentially are meant to be broken. She can't be told what to do, because why should she listen to someone who doesn't know what's best for them?

• Free-willed or free-spirited women do not conform to social norms. They will do what they please, whether it is a trend or completely "weird."

• This might be the toughest one to handle while in a relationship with a free-willed woman: They simply love adventure. They like to come and go as they please. Whether it is a spur of the moment trip, concert, or simply going for a hike, the free-willed woman will go when she wants.

• She will be herself 100 percent of the time. She will speak her mind even if it's not her place.
• She is resilient. She can not be broken, regardless of the circumstances.

If you can handle dating a free-willed woman, then you're in for an exciting and wonderful life full of surprises. Once you get past their barrier, they are very loving and loyal.
