Sometimes she concedes an issue, sometimes I do. I'd rather not always get my way than have a push over for a wife. And a lot of times her ideas are better than mine so listening to her results in a better outcome anyway.

As for arguing over every little thing...to hell with that. Been there once already and it is exhausting.
You sound just like my husband.

I've been described more often than not as "sassy", which I think is just a nice way of saying "biotch"..lol

Most of the men I've ended up with genuinely enjoy a woman who has a backbone. Not necessarily someone argumentative, but someone who has opinions (and will argue them), and who basically won't take any cr@p.

My husband cannot stand passive mates, heck he'll argue a stance just to rile me up.

I think there is something alluring (to keep it PG13) in some back and forth tension at times. Challenging each other views and kinda keeping each other on our toes.

I could never date a passive man, or one without strong principles, passions and opinions. I would unintentionally walk all over them, and I don't think I would respect that, and subsequently would lose interest physically.

There is a huge caveat with all of that. My husband and I genuinely care about each other's happiness, so the arguments tend to be more intellectual and not emotional. Plus, we don't argue about things like kids, finances, and other base principles. Any emotional or important arguments are NOT fun.

Like I was saying earlier it isn't about being challenged all the time. Who wants to deal with that ****?

It's more about a woman that sticks to her beliefs and doesn't bend her views for me. I really hate when women do that it is so unattractive to me. I feel like they are being disingenuous to me and are just trying to make me happy or sell themselves to me.
Lmao didn't mean to do that at all. I prefer somewhere in the middle of the road is what I'm trying to say, I like when a woman can stand up to me and won't fold because my opinion differs on something that's important to her. I don't like it if she purposely finding things to argue with me about though lol, that's an entirely different thing.

As long as she agrees to have plenty of sex, we're good.
