Falling in love with a stubborn girl means that she’s stubborn about you.
By Thought Catalog — Written on Jan 10, 2018
Stubborn. Most people associate that adjective negatively. It means that someone is not going to let up on their thoughts, beliefs, or grudges for quite some time. This can be quite annoying and off-putting to some.
But stubborn also means persistent, tenacious, and never wanting to give up. Stubbornness can be very trying but it is also an amazing attribute.
A stubborn woman is not one to mess with. She has her own rules, set of boundaries and ways about her that just do not falter. But having her on your side means that she will never falter when helping you out as well. Women who are stubborn have this power about them that just cannot be beaten.
If you end up loving a stubborn woman, it certainly will not be breezy when it comes to disagreements. But her strength for your love will ultimately outweigh everything else. If you are lucky enough to find one, there are some things you should realize.
Why stubborn women make the best wives:
1. She knows what she wants.
A stubborn girl knows what she wants and has no problem going after it. She is fierce with her feelings and when it comes to things and people she loves, she’s all in.
Loving a stubborn woman means that she’s stubborn about you. She’ll love you, no matter what craziness happens between the two of you.
2. She’s in-tune with her emotions.
Women are emotional creatures. This is beautiful. But the best part about a stubborn girl is that she’s in-tune with those emotions. She knows what gets her fired up and what she will fight to the death about.
To be stubborn means you have a lot of feelings, and a stubborn girl is highly emotional, in a good way.
3. She will push you to be better.
Let’s face it: sometimes she’ll know you better than you know yourself. She will fight against you when she knows what’s good for you, and she will be relentless when it comes to your health, safety, or happiness.
She’s not going to be the girl that stands off to the side and lets you destroy yourself; instead, she’ll be the one who’s continually finding ways to love you better, and get you to love yourself more.
4. She's driven.
She’s stubborn for a reason. Maybe because she had to fight for something she deserved, or maybe because things didn’t come easy for her. Whatever the reason, she’s stubborn with a purpose.
She is strong and she is driven for the things she wants. This will not only inspire you, but will make her an amazing partner.
5. She’s real.
She’s not a pushover. She’s not the type to just agree with you out of fear, pity, or weakness. This girl has a backbone and she’s going to keep it real with you.
When she doesn’t agree with you, she’ll tell you. And this will give you an honest, down-to-earth relationship.

6. She’ll make things interesting.
She’s hard-headed, which makes for some conflict. But who wants to fall in love with someone that always agrees? (Ew. That’s no fun.) Sure, dating a stubborn girl means that things will be difficult sometimes, but that’s the beauty of it — she’s going to keep things passionate, complicated, real.
7. She can empathize.
You’re going to argue at times — that’s a given. But the thing about a stubborn girl is that she’s actually good in arguments. Because of her stubbornness, she will know how to see other sides.
Sure, she has her own strong feelings, but that doesn’t mean she won’t consider your perspectives. She might not always agree with you (this is a good thing, trust me) but she sticks to what she believes. And in this crazy, flip-floppy world, that’s important.
8. She’s confident.
To be stubborn means to have confidence in what you believe or stand for. And girls that are confident are incredibly sexy.
9. She's passionate.
She’s stubborn. She’s emotional. This means she has her own wants and desires, her own things that she’s into, and her own passionate feelings for you. She’s not the type of girl to be even-keel, ho-hum about everything. She’ll light a fire in you and will give your relationship a wonderful, exciting spark.
10. She cares, so deeply.
She’s stubborn, but stubborn about you. She will be stubborn when it comes to how others treat you and especially how she treats you. She will make you her equal, or even put you first.
She’ll keep on loving you, even when she’s angry or when you’re frustrated with her. And because she’s stubborn, she won’t give up on you. Ever.
11. She’ll drive you crazy, in a good way.
A stubborn girl is going to push your buttons. She’s going to disagree and make it known that you aren’t on the same page. But this girl will love you to the death. And we’re all a little crazy, right?
There’s absolutely nothing wrong with finding someone who makes you crazy. And crazy in love.
