It was meant to HELP guys who fail constantly in understanding women.
We want men to be...well, MEN not some nervous nelly who cant even suggest an appropriate venue despite saying he had a lot of old experience.
Where did he meet the rest of them? He never got ONE idea as to a nice, non threatening, non time specific venue?
No apparently he didn't.
what you posted would work for you, but not for all women. just like men, women are individuals, and should be treated as such. you dont like guys that are willing to acquiesce to what a woman wants, thats fine, but if you like to be frustrated all your life because you cant find someone who fits neatly into your vision of what you want a relationship to be, more power to you.
I peeked back in at my OLD the other day and got a guy who lives in the same suburb.
He seemed very nice and ticked all the boxes and asked me if I would like to meet for coffee.
We live in a very hip part of town with loads of restaurants, pubs, etc. He's born here, I've just moved in.
As I find OLD quite nerve wracking and don't drink a lot of coffee, I said sure but not a coffee joint.
So he says - lets just meet at the jetty (its beachside) and decide from there.
This simple sentence was enough to turn me off entirely and here's why:
I want a man to have the powers of DECIDING where to meet, to take charge if you like. He knows this area better than me, yet he can't even suggest a suitable venue to take a new female?!
I realize it may not be logical or even fair but it is what it is....!
(PS before you guys go getting mad, I WILL probably still meet him...but this did make me hesitate and gave a poor first impression).
I know this thread started about 2 months ago so I'm pretty late to the party and haven't read anything up to this point. The modern woman is putting men into no win situations. For some women when a man takes charge and decides everything she gets pissed because he didn't ask or take her input. Then you have this case where it was a complete turn off that he implied that they both decide what they want to do.
Women want to be equal and there are other women that do not want to be equal.
In my relationships I drive the bus and I wear the pants, always. I'm not controlling by any means, she can either follow me or get off. I don't like being told what to do or to be given orders, one of the reasons why I have a business and not a job. I'm also NOT controlling myself because I hate power trippers.

He can wishy wash around some other female.
I require a man to be a man not a big girls blouse who cant even take charge on the first date let alone the thirtieth.
It was DOOMED from the get go. I don't want to be the grownup in any relationship, taking care of someone else or making decisions for them.
This says so much, it is dazzling.
