What are the pitfalls of dating a woman who is the middle child in the family?
I suppose it is an unfair generalization but what comes to my mind is High Maintenance. Someone who needs constant reassurance and attention, or someone who will be manipulative in order to get attention.
The problem might be too that even once they get the attention, it might never be enough because they are geared for being unnoticed and under appreciated. So whatever the partner would do to prove his love, it would never satisfy the person.
Am I close?
Right on target, women who are middle children were often overlooked in their families and as a result, NEED constant attention. Think of Madonna, she THRIVES upon attention and she is ANYTHING but low-key!
The high maintenance thing might be correct in a few situations (though as duffsmom says, it is a gross generalization), dating really needs to be done on a person to person basis. You may find that in certain circumstances, a certain trait is present in certain people, but you must be careful not to generalize.
