I mean, I'm super cynical and extremely distrustful of men in general but seeing a post like that gives me just a little sliver of hope that I'll be able to find a man who isn't a complete waste of space.
Thank you! Not all men view women as something you just f***. Marriage to me is serious and not just child's play.

Not true at all. I don't see what's wrong with what I said. I was just answering the OP questions and stating that sex isn't my ultimate goal. IMO, there is more to marriage than sex or just seeking carnal pleasures.

Not necessarily..I have met men (though they are VERY few and far between) who honestly wanted to meet a woman, start a family and be with her for the rest of his life. My sisters best friend is like that, and unfortunately he's so focused on being a Dad and getting married that he moved in with his girlfriend of 2 months recently. She's an ex heroin-addict and has 2 children under the age of 4 and he's only 23

I've worked with nearly all men my entire life, I know how bad they can be. That's where my distrust comes from.

THats all very nice and makes every female poster happy....but in general, your primary goal of being with a woman is to have sex with her. its what drives you to meet her, and what drives you to become a better person and a better man. Its the most basic and primal instinct that assures survival of our species. Some see it and some dont, dome understand and some wont. Lets assume that you have average sex drive and average success with the opposite sex.

Find this wonderful woman to share your life with and all the other poetic bs you listed and take sex out fo the equation. Then get back to us about unwavering loyalty, when she is screwing your neighbor. To all the posters in this thread, that misundertood, I am not saying that women are only good for sex and that men dont look for other qualities or dont appreciate them. What Im saying is that beyoind all that, one primary goal remains and it cannot be denied. Sex drives men to be with women. Nothing else comes close.

I hope you don't think all men are bad like that but, I can see why women think that way. Sadly, I feel that the reason I may continue to struggle finding a woman is because I may be viewed as too old-school, too much of a nice guy, and not "rough" enough.

Studies and reports have been done where its basically concluded that women would much rather have a "bad boy" as a boyfriend/spouse or whatever than a "nice guy". Maybe that's why Rhianna can't get enough of Chris Brown?

Okay. I think you can figure out where I stand on this.

Angry? Do I seem to come across that way to you or do you have an emotion detector that works in text mode?

Why are gay celebrites married in Hollyweird?

Anyone who looks what's going on today could tell, indeed, marriage has been reduced to child's play. You have as much of a chance to get divorced as much as getting married.

You come across that way, hence my comment about your words...

sex is what holds couples together for sure - if there is no sex then there is no couple , but only a friendship.

and how long will that friendship last when a 3rd party comes along and starts sleeping with one of the friends - not long for sure!

Yes, I also know a couple guys like that...they're all bible thumpers. I can only say religion had something with that. And they've told me they want to get married as soon as possible. They all did. I can't tell you if they are happy or not.

Invaluable tool to have. What do you do that entitles you to work with men from all walks of life?
