What is wrong with a woman that wants a man that actually wants to accomplish something with himself? Do men not want women that are accomplished?... it's the same sort of principle. But I bet not, because then there won't be anyone at home to clean the house right?????
Nobody is saying u should want to date a bum or a man who doesnt want to work and has no ambition in life but theres a difference between that and a women who wont date a man who works hard but makes under x amount of dollars..

Is it really too much to ask of women? To be servile, attractive, accommodating and personality-less -- piece of cake. It's us chicks who are too demanding. [/end sarcasm]
Way too run with a comment

My point was if men have any checklists for a women especially shallow where looked at as dogs..WOmen can have a checklist of a thousand things a man needs to fit and are never caleld o na it as shallow or demanding..

As for what makes a good man -- lots of variety is permitted, so it's easier to just make a list of turn-offs. Presuming to know what we stupid women think in our little heads (a/k/a misogyny) would definitely be on it.
It wasn't right out of the blue and it wasn't exactly worded like that. I just took it like that.

What is the most important thing to you when you want to marry to a man?
Know who he is when no one is watching or what he does will never be found out.


a few places to observe:

what he does on the internet?
does he pay his bills?
how he treats watresses?
What he does when he's cut off in his car?

food for thought

Well, I'm a woman, and I think I know better than you what goes on in my head or in the heads of women I know. I doubt any woman has ever actually shown you a checklist, much less one with "thousand things" on it. Based on what I've observed, women like that exist only in the bitter imagination of men who refuse to date in their own league, yet never quit complaining about how shallow women are.

Well, for me, the most important thing would be that I'd be gay. Since I'm not, I have a feeling the relationship would just not work out.

Seriously though. Write down what you are looking for in a man...then figure out where you are most likely to find that type and go there.

ie) If you want to find a fitness oriented, respectful, christian guy...don't go to "All you can eat pork rinds night" at Shady's strip club.

Aha -- so you've quoted your ex out of context and you misrepresented her actual words. And then, you passed it off as a reflection on women in general. Nice.

Can I at least tell you what she said? And then you can tell me whether it was right or wrong and I wasn't talking about ALL women.

Yeha i mean no women are like that at all

I would say more women are like that the men because even medicore or ugly women will get hit on numerous times because theres guys who will sleep with anything so these ugly women have a inflated view of what level theyre really on..
