| Do they say it at the same time as they run, or do they say it, and run later, if so what happens inbetween is probably your answer.
If they say it at the same time, just trying not to be blunt or mean

| Relationships are made from a connection between two individuals. Sure there are some qualities that some people are looking for, but that doesn't make for a perfect match. You can't force a relationship nor would I want to.

| This is such an interesting question. This has happened to me. My husband loved the fact that I was and then later on he wanted to know why I was. Go figure. Someone once told me that men are little boys in men's bodies and really haven't grown up. So they probably don't know what they really want.

| I am passionate, strong and presently indendent...I can't say I have had a man run from me....perhaps it is not that in which he runs from. Sometimes you need to consider his views of life and see if there might be something there in which his own snactuary was a great value to him and he felt he would loose that, of course people respecting one another no one looses that sort of thing. The other possiblity that night bot be comfortable to face is your views may have been something that he felt it was more easy to retreat than to face the conversation with you to address the issue. Please remember that often it is the case that men have women baggage with them, often some controll freakazoid tramples their hearts and if it happens enough time they often think all women handle themselves a particular way. Many women are poor comunicators when a man has to find courage and share her uglies with her, women dont usually take it too well so this is very uncomfortable for them and they learn to shut up, retreat, or rebell...or....go fishin!!
Good luck sorting thru what is fiction and what is not.....many times if there are issues but they care they will tell a woman she is wonderful somehow so she wont get all down on herself. and of course the first place women like to think of a retreat situation his he was falling in love with her and was scared..but you know i have found that to be real bullshit...I think some women with an ego inflation problem worked that one up in her head...so examine him and yourself is the only way to sort this one out...none of us know yiour conversatins, each of your tines of voices, if there as been any issues...the list goes on but yo get the pic..this ones on your shoulders to sort threu,...dont kill yourself thinking thru it to awefully hard, it is what it is and move on...

| Hello i could not help but respond to your question. This is how I feel when a man or woman meet one another if they have not committed to finding common ground to make a relatiopnship work I don't think that being independent, passionate or strong is the reason. Wether we want to admitt it or not a relationship is a 24 hr job, you must respect the individual. Be willing to except everything about them and communicate with each other. The more independent,passionate and stronger you are should only make your goals that much easier to accomplish. Then add comittment and enjoy.

| Interesting question.....If you asked a 100 man at a bar what they are looking for in a woman 80% would answer an independent,strong woman who is passionate....The problem is when they find them they don't kno in most cases how to handle that !!!A man has to be pretty confident within himself in order to let this strong woman in.....It does really seperate the boys from the men...they are out there ..the ones who embrace your strenghth will beable to allow you to be all that you are !!!

| the only way i would run from a woman like that is if she has some emotional issues that need the assistance of professional help. because, no matter how strong, independant, and passionate she may b, any serious emotional issues will at some point, ruin the relationship. sometimes, it's better to pull the chute earlier, than later.

| Instincts?
Instinctivly is it supposed to be the man who is the man? (not sure too much testosterone like behavior in a woman is attractive, or even a man for that matter)
I haven't thought this one out.. but tossed it out there anyway.
I wonder too if a man with low self esteem would have problems. I guess they would... probably problems with anyone.
Maybe she comes on too strong too fast? instead of establishing a comfort zone.. she invades one.. pushing him away?
assumptions. Maybe what she thinks the guy wants.. is not what the guy wants.
reverse the roles.. ask yourself what makes a woman run from.. etc.. It's probably the same reasons a woman would run.
Why they say your the awesome woman of their dreams.. then run.. well that part is confusing. I cant answer that one. It's like falling up.. it just dosn't make sense. Are they caught up in the passion of the moment? and say what they dream of? Or are they speaking from the heart/mind in a quiet moment of reflection? If it's a belief a conviction.. i dont think it would just go away. If it was just an illusion a dream where they were fooling themselves as much as you.. well i think that can be shattered pretty quickly. I think when you involve sex everything gets fuzzy.. so i can see it happening in a sexual relationship.

| Men don't run from independent, strong, passionate women.
Most women realize when they become independent, strong and passionate. When they take things too far they become a biotch.
That's when the line is drawn and men run.

| the thing is these type of women very often forget to show a softer careing side yes i see that big word passionate but look where it is in your header second to last word try and not only place passion first but also live it with ture meaning
i like a strong woman who knows how to go out and get what she wants but id love a compassionate not to indepent woman more
theres an old saying walk beside me as my equal and youll be my equal walk behind me and youll be forgotten walk in front of me and youll block my view

| Because they are afraid, that she can stand on her own two feet and doesnt need a man.... but the truth be known, she does have a softer side and softer heart.....They know they dont need a man, but would want a man in their life for the right reasons....
