Are men really lazy in relationships?

Men are lazy.

That seems to be the crux of the argument that the opposite sex has against many men these days. But is it an entirely fair assumption?

My answer is going to be no. It isn’t. See the problem is that we are in an age where women are more independent now and they are often achieving more than many of their male counterparts.

The problem is, women who are in this position still hold fast to, or at least subscribe to the notion that their significant other should be able to obtain just as much, if not more than she has.

In other words, these men are being judged by standards far higher than what they have personally achieved. The chance to organically grow into these goals as a couple has been tremendously diminished because women are doing more with their opportunities to achieve success. Men for whatever reason are falling behind.

Here is the sad reality, men are often in a position of playing catch up, and that’s hurting relationships.
