Haha, that's right; you heard me correctly there...fellow C-D guys out there: what do you want, or would find most desirable, in a potential wife? Lol.

Seriously, I want to know what, if anything, changes in terms of expectations or goals, when you switch gears from wanting to have just a girlfriend, to wanting the whole-nine-yards deal in terms of having a married relationship, to a dear wife? Or does nothing change much at all?

Thoughts / comments please?

I don't want to have a wife--but if I did I would want the same sort thing out of her as I would out of a girlfriend. Domestic goddess, lives with me, is comfortable with who I am and the way I live my life.

Also, just because I don't want a legal commitment, it doesn't mean I wouldn't be exclusive or expect the same from her.

For me, most important is girl who is "sweet", which for me is a combination of optimism, youthfulness, happiness, cuteness, affection, and kindness. Hard to describe, but I'll take that over money, education, or sex appeal anyday.

Lol, really? But don't the guys here ever get lonely though at all, and dream of sweet wedded domestic bliss, to the one most special, treasured girl in their hearts, and to raise a loving family with and to grow old together with? I know I do -- I literally dream of almost exactly that, every day -- very much! (I know, I know; guilty as charged...I readily confess, to being a hopeless romantic at heart )

I don't know about marriage, but I don't want a family.

The "IT" factor. When you can't describe it, that is when you know you've found a "wife" candidate. It's either rare, or I'm picky. Who knows.

The question will only lead to the same place as if your wife just asked you if she's fat..

But i'll agree with what union federal said.

I think they're too busy guarding their precious money from all us gold diggers to care.

I hope you find what you're looking for!
