This same change commonly takes place In men and women as they mature. In her younger
years, a woman is much more willing to sacrifice and mold herself to fulfill her partner's needs.
In a man's younger years, he is much more self-absorbed and unaware of the needs of others.
As a woman matures she realizes how she may have been giving up herself in order to please
her partner. As a man matures he realizes how he can bet-ter serve and respect others.
As a man matures he also learns that he may be giving up himself, but his major change is
becoming more aware of how he can succeed in giving. Likewise, as a woman matures she also
learns new strategies for giving, but her major change tends to be learning to set limits in order
to receive what she wants.
