You never truly know a man... until you see him fight. - Part 1

This is a topic that has crossed my mind in various versions over the years. I finally feel inspired to give it a bit of the exploration time it deserves.

Some of this idea comes because I feel like I have a difficult attracting the girls I am attracted to and it seems to me that some of it is simply because they didn't give me enough of a chance to get to know me very well. I am sure I am not the only guy who feels this way so I thought I might describe a little about how a guy operates and how his character, and some of his personality, are found in the way he goes through his trials.

One easily visible example would be seen in the athletic man's experiences. It is the game he plays the hardest, with the greatest intensity, which usually reveals a very specific part of his character which you will not likely see in any other part of his life without very specific digging or circumstances. There is something about the competitive nature among a man's peers which reflects a certain element of character definition. His sportsmanship, his temperament, his focus, his dedication, his teamwork, his practice ethic, his loyalty, and in a team setting where he may have a coach(or with some sort of officiating present) you can see how obedient and respectful he is to authority.

I know I have overlooked even more elements to my sports analogy which are quite telling and insightful about the inner self of a man, but I am satisfied with my meager dabblings on this topic so far.  I have other ideas I would like to explore on the topic and will do so in the next part I write about at some point in the future.
