How does the mind of a man work? They say they want one thing then when they get it they don't want it. For example, they say they want to do them and you do you. You grant their wishes then they no longer want it.

Scenario: Lets say you have been in a relationship with a girl for a number of years. About 4 years in you start treating her like crap, always criticize her, yet expect her to be pleasant when she is around you. She loses all interest in you so you say you want to take a break. The girl agrees to the break then you no longer want the break. You say you are all for her and want to make it work but your actions show otherwise. Why not just be free and save everyone the drama?

Question for the men? Would you prefer a woman that has a good job, makes good money, goes to school, keep up appearances, has a good personality, goals, and spoils you or a woman who has an average job, struggles to make ends meet, does not go to school, keeps up appearances which is what causes her to struggle, has an okay personality, has no goals, and never provides you with surprises? What is the reasoning behind your choice.

Hmmmm...????

Well, no matter how successful you become make him feel needed.

There is the saying, "The broken wing syndrome."

If you are fun, easy going & like football and drink beer, you're in.

Let me ask you this. Would you automatically be offended if a woman makes more money than you?

We all have different preferences and types. Why does it matter what we prefer? The main thing is to be the person you want to be, because you will be happier that way, and that will make a better relationship.

...Anyways I personally do not treat women like crap, but I do know fellows who do.

They live on planet earth, man. If you spent some time getting to know women, you'll find out that successful women exist. They may not be single at the time of approach, but they exist.

I am not a man but I think a lot of the attributes you mention are second to how the woman makes him feel when he is with her. If you make him feel like Superman, he will be hooked.

My theory from experience is men desire you more when you give them a chase. If you act as though you are not interested they want you, if you are interested they don't want you. It is like a cat and mouse game. The man has to feel as though they are chasing a woman or competing to get her to be interested. When they have something good they do not cherish it until she gets away. There may be a few men out there who are not like that but majority fall into the above mentioned category.

Keep in mind that if the mouse actually runs away, the cat will look for other mice instead.

I think it depends on the woman. If the woman is just a pretty face with no other qualities then yes. However, if she is the ideal woman the man is going to keep trying.
