Men and women are wired different i can not remember where i heard it but according to some research i read somewhere women have on average twice as much connective tissue between the right and left hemispheres of the brain. It is why women seen to be crazy when in fact they are having several conversations at the same time and seem to get frustrated because all those conversations are bleeding over on each other. I get this everyonce in awhile from my wife, i have to remind her i am a guy one thing at a time, lets solve one problem and move on the the next. Men are in a way more linear, we focus on one task finish it, and move on the the next, women have a tendancy to focus on several and harry themselves finishing them all. To use an analogy i heard once; men's minds are composed of boxes and we have a place for everything, we take one box down rifle through it and then put it away, keeping everything seperate. Women on the other hand thier minds are like a ball of yarn where everything is touching and connected to everything else.
To of my favorite adages are;
Men never worry about the future until they have a wife, women never worry about the future once they have a husband.
Men marry women hoping they won't change, women marry men hoping they will.
I realy think that's over simplified. Not all women are wired the same and not all men are wired the same. I'm female, but I have a one-track mind, and the two sides of my brain tend to work seperately. Multitasking is a nightmare to me, and I, too, find myself telling people to tell me one thing at a time, otherwise I too am left wondering why I was just told to put the paper towels in the fridge, and what on earth work had to do with that.
And women never worying about the future once they have a man just sounds sexist to me. And for gods' sake, I would not marry a man I thought needed 'changing'.
I think you've watched one too many Disney Princess movies, my friend. Shame the tales of our childhood teach us that unhealthy relationship habits like helplesness and relying on men will lead to hapily ever after.
Leliana is my all time favorite DAO character, because she is crazy, everybody is insane it is just the measure of the degree to which that insanity manifests itself. Leliana seems like the type of woman who would be content cooking cleaning carting the kids around, and then at night run the freak flag up the pole for her S/O. While she is not innocent, very few people are, i think she is aware of that and wants the same sort of acceptance that she gives. Her issues do not seem to be the typical boring parental issues that Allister and Morrigan have, Leliana's issues are so much more interesting because of her struggle to overcome what is a self created problem, the desire to change and the struggle to stay on the path makes her deeper than the rest. Yea yea yea Leliana fanboy here, if you had to kiss ass i can not think of a sweeter one pucker up for. Plus she has the sexiest accent, dripping with innocent sexuality she knows what she is doing, you know what she is doing, but you can not help yourself. It is like oxygen, once you take that first hit you are hooked.

See, to me it doesn't seem like Leliana is trying to over come a self created problem. She's just playing pretty pretty princess and letting others whom she puts in charge of her life and soul make her hard decisions for her. Her path ends up being wichever path YOU choose for her. I guess if you want a girlfriend who acts as a subordinate and can't think for herself, she's it.

Once I got Alister to the point where when i click on him he says: "Yes my love?"
I get a little weak in the knees....... which is a little disturbing, since I'm a guy....
You are adorable. Got to love a man who's honest. Al definetly grew on me, though I found him whiney at first. Now he's kind of adorable like a awkward puppy... I'll romance him eventualy, though he's not my type, overall. Zev... oh... he will surprise you.

I couldn't carry Morrigan's romance all the way through, but I will eventualy. I was surprised how fast and hard I fell for her. But her worldview does make me as uneasy as the Chantries. *sigh* Lel doesn't seem to have a thought in her head from what I experienced... I should try to do the romance, but I can't... I just can't... I'd sooner romance Wynne if it were an option! And she pisses me off sometimes! lol But at least she thinks, even if incorectly!
