Alpha Female Romance Stories
If you are an alpha female, you may wonder why you don’t have many alpha female romance stories, especially if you are 50 years old or older. Or you may be wondering why they are many and short-lived.
“Alpha” designates “the first” and we first started designating this to the leaders of animal packs, such as wolves. Many wolf packs have both an alpha female and an alpha male. The alpha female or the alpha male is usually the strongest and the bravest, the leader of the pack. The human alpha female possesses such attributes as dominance, confidence, and a take-charge attitude. The alpha female has a high level of self-directedness, as she doggedly goes about her goals. The alpha female can be an aggressive, competitive high achiever, with a strong sense of mission. The alpha female can be a bold, creative innovative thinker. Often highly successful in the world, the alpha female’s traits of persistence, tenaciousness, determination and steadfastness help her to achieve her goals. The alpha female in the business setting will often do less damage than her alpha male counterpart, because one of her means of success is to tend and befriend other alphas, especially other alpha females. The alpha female often runs in packs with other alpha females, and the male who offends one member of the alpha female pack is going to have to deal with members of the alpha female pack.
The alpha female is also often blessed with high levels of charisma, which she can use to charm others into agreeing with her. The alpha female is often good at persuasion, sometimes arguing with others until they either agree with her or shut up. When persuasion doesn’t work, the alpha female also knows how to intimidate, subtly or directly.
If you are an alpha female fifty years or older, you may have had to hide your alpha traits. As a child, you may have been labeled “boyish” or “unladylike” or “aggressive” or “uppity” or “inappropriate”. As you got older, when you exercised the traits of the alpha female, you may have been labeled as a “bitch.” In some cases, it was socially, or even physically dangerous to show your competitive, powerful alpha female self. You may have had to develop slyer ways of meeting your goals, such as manipulating others, or withholding information. Or you may have learned to be mean, or actually be bitchy. Younger alpha women are now entering the executive, professional and political world, and don’t have to hide their alpha nature as much.
The alpha female is born with these traits because at our best, nature created us to protect and provide for our families and our communities. Genetically, our alpha female traits prepare us well for survival, for ourselves and for those we love.
If you are a younger alpha female, your alpha female romance stories may come from romantic liaisons that are strategically planned. One man is a good solid rock and companion for vacation getaways, another is good to compete with because competing with him keeps you sharp and on your toes, and another gives you good advice for climbing the corporate ladder or advancing in your profession.
At midlife, the alpha female may find herself unhappy, with a nagging sense that something is missing in her life. The alpha female may review her life and realize that they haven’t achieved what romance stories are aimed to achieve. She got so busy, she forgot to cultivate lasting intimate relationships or start a family. The alpha female may have considered relationships outside of work bothersome or impractical. Yet the alpha female misses something in her life. She may be overworking, or toying with overuse of alcohol or even drugs. She may feel a subtle or blatant emptiness when she slows down long enough from pursuing her goals. The alpha female may review a series of failed intimate relationships. She looks at other couples; she looks with new longing at babies. Some of the other couples look happy, and the alpha female wonders how they do it. Other couples look bored with each other but stay married for the convenience. The alpha female isn’t sure she wants that. The alpha female looks into the future, and considers the possibility that she might die lonely and alone, or perhaps surrounded by admirers, but still basically alone.
