What do you think?

I've met two men in the past year who always wanted to be married, but were in the 40's and never had been. One was extremely overweight so my guess is that hampered his social life a lot. The other says he doesn't know why he's single, he's "picky", "set in my ways" ... They are responsible and educated and have jobs and are decent people and all that good stuff, but my interaction with them was like talking to a 19 year old boy.
Proof an honest man = immature man.
See my topic about things men THINK, but never SAY.

Maturity is paying your bills on time, keeping credit in good order and pleasing your employer.

Everytime a woman does not get what she wants she hits the "IMMATURITY BUTTON"

FREEZE!

Stop trying to control us and just enjoy us.

Who is more mature a man with a corvette or the man with a bmw?

Who is more mature a man in a rural home or a man in a downtown condo?

If a man worked hard in school got a good job and wants to make up for lost time by sleeping with you and your sister is that being immature?

Women that hit the "immature button" are just mad some men cant be controled.

I have a few female friends that hit me with because I text them instead of talking on the phone....a lot of times I dont feel like talking, so I respond via text only to be told Men talk & lil boys text message......Control freaks

Or basically to give her his check and let her give him an allowance.[/quote]

I understand that in Korea and Estonia it is the wife who handles the money. Sometimes it's a cultural thing.

Cultural actually makes practical sense.

And the last kind is they really just don't want to make the sacrifices that one needs to make in a marriage (i.e. money, kids, family responsibilities, time constraints, etc), so basically selfishness. I think alot of them don't understand the true joys in life doesn't come from having sex with the hottest women, or making the most money, or attending the most exciting/prestigious events, but just from ordinary living and the happiness that results from the sacrifices you do make for the ones you love.
Boring.

The bold is the most important to the real mature single guys. If women aren't smart enough to see that who would want them anyway. Move on to someone who does!

HA is right. I have no doubt that I pay the salary for at least one of the employees at my local home depot. I splurge on tools. Heck, yesterday I borrowed a rench set from my job for this weekend to fix my car because I can't afford my own set right now. With all the tools I have, I can't believe I didn't buy a decent rench set.

I certainly use tools at my job, but I don't have to buy them. But, I can't imagine being a home owner and not having a plethora of tools.
