Is it normal that men shouldn't give all their care to their girlfriends

When I make my girlfriend feels like she is everything to me and I care about her a lot I feel like I shouldn't do this with her!
Is it normal or what do you think ?

    Lol, it's a grey-area question. If I say yes, it'll make me "pathetic" in her eyes, because then I have no aspirations and ambitions. But in truth it's a no and yes.

    I love her, that's that. I practically worship her (she really is sexy and unique). See, she's pretty much my future wife in my eyes, but she isn't my boss, neither is she my life. Just my happiness.

    I've ambitions, most revolving around our future together, but some solely for myself. Say, work, expanding my knowledge, for examples.

    My girlfriend may mean a whole lot to me, but she never was my everything. Before I met her, I already had goals for myself. A dude should have a life outside the romance circle, but not indulge himself like he's single once he has a lady (other words: don't cheat and screw things up). So yeah.

      I like your last paragraph, completely right .. when a dude have a life outside the romance circle then he will not give all his care and attention to his gf, so yes :D

    Yes it's normal. Every other guy feels this way mostly because we don't want to feel like we have a soft spot.

    Normal. Maybe you are restraining to give it all because you are trying to guard your "tough guy" image or you had a traumatic experience with a past relationship?

        That's why my comment is "maybe" with a question that you must answer.

    Why not?

    Does it make you feel vulnerable or are you lying?

    If you don't make her feel like this, she will think you don't care and move on so she can find someone who does!

      I don't know, but some times I feel like because she knows she is everything to me so she do whatever and doesn't make a consideration for me !!

        Well my son means everything to me but I wouldn't accept any bad manners or disrespect from him. It doesn't mean you have to be a doormat or put up with any crap. Both of you should treat each other as if you are best friends.
