  Do you wish somebody would've just told you how to identify the characteristics of a man who would be a protector and a provider, so you wouldn't have wasted your time with a bunch of those other dudes?
• 0:43
  Well, in this video I'm gonna be talking about how to identify a provider man.
• 0:48
  And some of these may surprise you because everybody thinks it's just money.
• 0:52
  And the truth is it's not just.
• 0:55
  Money.
• 0:56
  So, hi, my name is Amanda Oya.
• 0:58
  Welcome to this channel where we teach you how to manifest what it is you want in life without all the extra stress, chaos, and drama that most people are accustomed to.
• 1:06
  Lately we're talking a lot about relationships.

• 1:27
  Okay.
• 1:28
  So, first of all, I, my apologies.
• 1:30
  Let's do some housekeeping for a second now that we're starting to build community here.
• 1:34
  My apologies for not being as active, uh, as I was because a lot of exciting things have been happening over on my end.
• 1:44
  Uh, the landlady who owns the house where we're living in Mexico has offered to sell it to us.
• 1:49
  Uh, we've also had a lot of really.
• 1:52
  Expansive, prosperous opportunities happening here in Mexico.
• 1:57
  In case you don't know, I wrote, my husband and I run a whole other YouTube channel together, all about being expats and investment opportunities available in other countries and moving to other countries and international lifestyle and so on and so forth.
• 2:12
  And just with all the craziness that's going on in the world right now, it's kind of exploded and we have people every single day.
• 2:19
  Are contacting both of us, uh, trying to find real estate here in Mexico, citizen, uh, citizenship.
• 2:25
  They're trying to get residencies, so on and so forth.
• 2:27
  So that's why you haven't seen that much of me, uh, because we've been a little busy trying to help people move abroad.
• 2:34
  But I'm here now answering this one question that has been coming up over and over again.
• 2:40
  So let's talk about it, right, because when I did the videos about, um, why women need provider men.
• 2:47
  A lot of you are asking, okay, well how do I actually identify it?
• 2:51
  So if you go online, right, and you look at most of the things, the number one thing that comes up is money, right?
• 2:56
  It's the idea of provision.
• 2:59
  And then because of that, you'll see a lot of content about how to get a rich guy.
• 3:03
  The thing is right, that not every dude is rich.
• 3:07
  Most dudes are not rich, actually, and I'm not talking about, um, like men who just don't want to provide at all.
• 3:14
  I'm talking about.
• 3:15
  Just men around the world in general, they, they're not all millionaires.
• 3:19
  Okay.
• 3:19
  So a lot of the content about, oh, let's go get a millionaire, and that's a provider guy, is a little bit dangerous, uh, because number one, it's a very surface level understanding of what it is to be a provider.
• 3:33
  Number one, uh, and number two, it has all these women going after like a very small percentage of men.
• 3:40
  And then, uh, they also end up, ignoring lots of other red flags because they're only focused on the money that a guy has.
• 3:51
  Uh, in which, and then in addition to that, um.
• 3:55
  You have a lot of women going after the same men, right?
• 3:58
  So it does become a math problem at some point.
• 4:02
  So let's talk about all the different ways in which a man can be provider.
• 4:06
  Yes.
• 4:07
  Finances is a part of it.
• 4:09
  Um, you know, a lot of you get stuck in relationships where you're either going 50 50 with men or you're paying all a grown man's bills, and that's obviously very exhausting and taxing.
• 4:19
  On you.
• 4:19
  Now, I understand with the way math is adding up, especially in the United States and Canada and Western Europe right now, based on what we're seeing on the other YouTube channel that we have that, uh, the math ain't math in, in a lot of situations, and perhaps you do need two incomes.
• 4:35
  There's also a lot of situations where a woman.
• 4:38
  Is a breadwinner, for example.
• 4:40
  Or you have situations like me and my husband where we both ran businesses before we even met each other, you know, and we have these very complimentary skillsets that can make everybody a whole lot more money.
• 4:51
  So it's, it's more nuanced than, you know, he's, he's.
• 4:56
  A millionaire is what I'm trying to say.
• 4:59
  But however, right, even if a man perhaps maybe at this very moment does not have the means with which to, for example, uh, pay all the bills.
• 5:10
  'cause again, I understand that things are a little difficult.
• 5:13
  North of the border where I am right now, there's two main things that you wanna be looking for.
• 5:19
  And number one, that is the desire to want to be a provider.
• 5:25
  If he has the desire, he's gonna work his butt off to do it.
• 5:29
  Uh, so that's the main thing that you're looking for.
• 5:31
  And number two, that whatever money he does have at this moment, he's very generous, uh, with that money.
• 5:38
  So.
• 5:40
  He, he's not stingy.
• 5:41
  Right.
• 5:41
  And he's not demanding that you go 50 50 and he's not sitting at home doing nothing.
• 5:47
  He's actually going out into the workforce and doing stuff.
• 5:52
  Right, because there's a lot of you also in the comments who are like, oh yeah, you know, I was married to men who did nothing and I was the one paying all the bills.
• 5:59
  No, no, no, no, no, no.
• 6:00
  That is not a provider, right?
• 6:01
  So it's not just about money.
• 6:03
  It's a lot more nuanced.
• 6:05
  Uh, and again, with the way all the bills and things are all set up right now in, in north of the border, like I said, I know that it can be a lot more challenging.
• 6:12
  So we're looking for the characteristics of a provider man.
• 6:15
  Now, obviously, right?
• 6:16
  If you run into a man and he's like, baby, I'll take care of all the bills.
• 6:19
  Great.
• 6:20
  Right.
• 6:21
  Uh, but some of you might be in a situation because of the situ economic situation going on in the world right now, where maybe that's not feasible, in which case he needs to have the desire to do it.
• 6:32
  He has, he needs to have the desire to actually want to be that provider for you, and he needs to be putting in the action.
• 6:39
  To actually do it.
• 6:41
  Uh, not like some of the dudes that have been showing up in the comment section on this video, fighting with a woman, which is already pretty feminine on their part and saying things like, oh yeah, if it was reversed, then, um, you know, that would sound ridiculous.
• 6:55
  Like, I, women need to pay the bills, blah, blah, blah, blah, blah.
• 6:57
  We're trying to avoid all of that.
• 6:59
  I actually showed those comments to my husband and he was shocked, this person was basically arguing, right?
• 7:05
  That, uh, women like us are, um, psycho because we're asking, uh, men.
• 7:12
  To pay all the bills.
• 7:13
  And if it was like reversed, it would sound absolutely crazy.
• 7:16
  And we're like, yeah, it does sound absolutely crazy Reversed, but not because of a double standard, but because men and women have different roles.
• 7:23
  So anyway, I showed my husband those comments and he's like, oh my God, is this what women are dealing with?
• 7:29
  I was like, yes.
• 7:30
  So anyway, the good news is that when they comment below, then you know, not to date those guys.
• 7:35
  So see, there you go.
• 7:36
  Um, okay, so now let's talk about other things that make a.
• 7:40
  Provider, man.
• 7:41
  So number one, problem solving.
• 7:44
  Okay, this is huge.
• 7:45
  You wanna go find a man who solves problems, not a man that you have to baby to go solve problems.
• 7:52
  So for example, my husband's actually a very good example of this, and literally everybody in our neighborhood.
• 7:56
  Notices this where like he, our landlady was actually visiting us last night to tell us that she wants us to buy the house.
• 8:02
  And she was like, do you see how, what a good job he does fixing everything in this house?
• 8:06
  I'm like, yeah, I don't even know what's broken.
• 8:08
  Like, he, he just goes to fix it.
• 8:09
  I have no idea.
• 8:11
  I don't even know what's happening.
• 8:13
  Um, or for example, let's say, um, I'm trying to film something or I'm stuck with a tech thing or something, he's like immediately here, uh, trying to solve that problem.
• 8:22
  That is also an indicator of a man who is a provider.
• 8:26
  Another indicator of a man who is a provider is a man who provides a lot of structure.
• 8:31
  So especially for those of you who like work with spouses, right?
• 8:35
  Or you run businesses together, even if you run households together because you know, a household is essentially a business in a lot of ways.
• 8:42
  Um.
• 8:43
  You know, oftentimes the, the feminine is more of like the creative, right?
• 8:47
  So that's why you'll see me doing a lot of videos and stuff like that.
• 8:50
  And I'm the one who has all these crazy ideas and I'm just like constantly expressing, in other words.
• 8:55
  And then the masculine provides a lot more of like structure, uh, traditionally.
• 8:59
  So if he's providing structure for you, uh, in business and in life, that is also pretty good indicator of a man with a provider mindset.
• 9:10
  And then, uh, finally.
• 9:12
  One of the things that you are going to want to find is, Forward planning and forward thinking, that is usually also a, uh, sign of a provider, right?
• 9:23
  So a lot of you get strung along in relationships, uh, particularly those of you who've been in relationships for a very long time and you wanna get married and you're still not married.
• 9:33
  You know who you are.
• 9:34
  Um, if a man is not.
• 9:36
  Sharing the future plans with you.
• 9:38
  That is not a provider.
• 9:39
  Man.
• 9:40
  Provider men know very quickly what it is that they want, uh, and they will share those plans with you, right?
• 9:47
  They will start making plans and they will start sharing those plans, uh, with you.
• 9:53
  So ultimately, at the end of the day, what we're looking for is the characteristics of a man who is a provider, and really understanding that this is a far more nuanced topic than perhaps sound bites on the internet.
• 10:06
  Make it seem like.
• 10:07
  And in addition to that, um, understanding that, you know, if you learn how to identify the characteristics of a provider man, then many of you won't feel forced into making a ton of money in order to avoid men, because that used to be me, many of us.
• 10:22
  Um.
• 10:23
  We're raised that we need to make our own money and so on and so forth as a way to protect ourselves from men.
• 10:29
  And I saw a colleague of mine and and friend post this the other day, and she talks a lot about these topics as well.
• 10:36
  And she's like, what if you just learned how to, um.
• 10:39
  Recognize the good character instead of having to feel like you protect yourself with money.
• 10:46
  So that's an interesting, uh, food for thought because those of you who are very high achieving especially perhaps have some sort of, uh, idea in your mind that the way to protect yourself from men is to make a lot of money.
• 11:01
  And what I'm proposing is learn how to identify a good man and then you won't have to worry.
• 11:07
  About making so much money.
• 11:08
  And I say that as a recovering achievement addict, and obviously I'm still very ambitious.
• 11:12
  We've got two YouTube channels going, uh, right now or that I'm managing, uh, that started for fun and then turned into businesses, right?
• 11:22
  And I allow that prosperity, uh, into my life.
• 11:26
  But, um, you know, so I understand it's not that easy, but once you learn how to, um, identify the characteristics.
• 11:34
  Then it's a lot more easy to chill out.
• 11:37
  And then we're having another conversation.
• 11:39
  Those of you who are have to heal from that like I did, which is like, oh, okay, so now what does this dynamic look like in a relationship?
• 11:46
  But that is a video for another time.
• 11:49
