Put The Horse Before The Cart

There is a saying "you don't put the cart before the horse..". In other words do things orderly. Or try and do things the right way.

A girl meets a man. They have sex a few times. He keeps visiting her at her home.

No marriage talks.

She calls and wants money for down payment on a house. The man has not seen the house as yet. So he asks a question about the property. Her response, "you will have to take my word for it. You will have to trust my judgment."

Man gets upset.

He decides relationships need to cool off.

Next.

Telephone rings.

Woman on the line. She wants money. More money. Western Union the funds. send it quickly.

Man gets more upset. Claims woman has no interest in him. She failed to ask how he was doing. If he needs any thing.

Man believes woman only interested in material things. She has no interest in him as a human being. She was out to get his money. Had she shown any interest in him as a person, she would have gotten all the money she needed.

Put the man first and everything else will follow. In other words put the horse before the cart and things will run in the right dimension.
