We hope you loved above independent hard working woman quotes. For many, even today, an independent hard working woman is some sort of unicorn, who exists only in stories. Even though we have thousands of successful women worldwide, society still remains blindfolded by not acknowledging their existence.

So how would you define strong independent women?

Is it someone who is always happy and never faced any challenges in life?

Is it someone who doesn't care about anyone but herself?

 

Quite contrary, when you find a strong woman, you will see she feels deeply and love fiercely. She can cry as easily as she laughs and giggles. She is both powerful and soft. An independent and powerful woman in all essence is the gift to the world.

Let us move ahead with the clarity that, when we say strong independent women, we are not confining ourselves to the popular names. We also include those millions of nameless and fearless ladies who managed to become role models for their friends and families. Any woman who thinks their gender does not define what they can or cannot achieve is a strong woman for us.

Independent Strong Women Quotes

Have you ever wondered how it would be to date a strong independent woman? What do they look like to their partner? And what excites them about relationships?

Strong women are intimidating, and there is no doubt about it. But man, they also make one of the best partners in a relationship. This is primarily because they know who they are and what they want.

2. She wants you but doesn't need you
There is a very fine line between both wants and needs. Once Cher famously said, “Men are luxury, not a necessity. I love men, but I don't need them.”

If you are looking to date independent women, understand that they are with you not because they are dependent on you emotionally or financially, but because THEY LOVE YOU.

3. She is not insecure
Be sure that they will not call you every hour to check on you or go through your stuff to check for infidelity every once in a while. Insecurity and desperation are ugly traits of humans, which brings nothing but toxicity in a relationship. That does not mean you are free to cheat and fool around. If they love you passionately, be sure they will hate you fiercely too.

6. She loves her career
Life is all about choices we make. When it comes to choosing between your career and love, women are always on a crossroads. Independent women fight to balance the two, but eventually, they might give up on love. Their career and dreams are some of the critical factors which define them. It gives them the freedom to choose and gives financial stability. If you are someone who forces your partner to choose among the two, you are not worth it.
