What do men want anyway?

Shit......not all men just want to have sex in realationships...believe me!

 

______________________
It has to be something else. Everyone isn't that into sex. Some men may feel that way be a lot of them just want someone to share stuff with. (Not their penis lynsey, some other stuff) I know that my parents just like spending time together and now that they are into the church heavily that they devote alot of time to living live like Jesus. (They really love church. lol it's kind of cute.)

 

Some space, and some free time would be nice.

 

Now here's an honest man. Saw some relationship "experts" on the morning news and they boiled it down to the following:

Women want to be cherished. (Edit: That was the word they used)

Men want some distance.

 

i do believe that your on the right track here. it's not about what men want or what women want, more about what this person who i feel strongly about should be receiving. becuase i mean i don't think that relationships are healthy when both partners need something, it's healthier to give and receive things.

 

i suppose men are just as changeable as women in regards to what they want of their partners. what a person thinks they want isn't always they really want. and since people change, their desires change.

 

Men want the same thing wemon want and you know what that is?

 

I can only speak for myself.I don't seem to have a lot in common with the "Common Man"

I have been married for 18 years now ,and I think about what makes us tick.Partly it's what we have in common,our basic outlook on finances,child rearing style,religion,etc. part of it is our differences...I'm more laid back and forgiving..shes more a driving force and a good manager.I'm more solid and fearless,she's more in need of reassurance and guidance. But the most important thing has been respect.I respect her intelligence and her integrity,she respects my strength and groundedness.

When you wake up each morning and see someone that you can still admire,it makes it worthwhile working through the day to be together again.

So,if there's any advice in all this I would say work to your strengths.Keep yourself interested and interesting..be yourself in a good way, and work on being a better yourself everyday. Accept a partner that helps you be yourself,and one that you like when his guard is down,and he is just being himself.

 

I think its the same for guys, like they think we women don't make any sense either! I think we all have bad experiences with partners, whether they're male or female, and its all about learning from your mistakes, moving on and maybe taking a different attitude to future boyfriends/girlfriends as then you may attract people who aren't so shallow, or rude, or whatever.
I've never had any major problems with boyfriends/girlfriends, not sure why, I guess its because I won't change for anyone, unless I'm harming someone, I won't change so they know what they're getting from the start lol!
I hate it when people think that I'm just the same as some girls they've met in the past when I'm not, like loads of guys won't come up to me because they're worried about me rejecting them, which just isn't true. I never treat anyone like crap and if things don't work out, then I'm not the type to get my friends to dump them, I'm a pretty decent person and I just try to treat others the way I'd want to be treated whether they're my girlfriend or boyfriend.

 

Yup. First she keeps her toothbrush in yer medicine cabinet, and then it's you keeping all your toiletries on the toilet tank cause the medicine cabinet is overflowing with tampons and moisturizers.

First you share the bills, then she wants your paycheque, all of it.

First you are pretty chilled with each other, and then she decides she doesn't like your friends, your hobbies, etc. and you having personal space. And if you ask for it you obviously don't love her.

 

Well, the thing is that different men want different things. And even more frustrating, people's needs and wants change all the time. And sometimes they even have trouble expressing them or even knowing what they are. It's extreamly rare for two people to have needs that actually match up, and it's wonderfull when it happens.

 

I know. Suggest that there's commonality in femininity and it'll be "we're all different" but then they ask questions like "what do men want" as if men are all the same.

Truth is, we all are the same, just as how all women are the same. Men tend to be cheating, aggressive, emotionally distant bastards and women conniving, backstabbing and emotionally manipulative witches.

 

well that's just complete bullshit

 

Well, you're entitled to your opinion.

 

As for me, I'm in a stirring mood, so....

Paraphrasing from Bill Hicks

Once upon a time, the first man and the first woman were in a beautiful garden. There was no pain, no death. Nothing but happiness and bliss. And God spoke to the man and the woman and said "here you go, my beautiful creations. All I ask is that you don't eat from that tree over there. Here you will live forever, without death, without pain, without sadness, all your needs cared for - food, water, air, everything you need - in peace and harmony and tranquility. For ever.

And the woman said ennnnhhhh, that's not enough."

 

Men are not all the same and they all don't want the same things. Nuff said!

 

According to the 3rd edition of Augie's Weekly Gazette most American males are in the perpetual process of a slow agonizing downhill slide into the bottomless pit of human excrement and used rubbers where there, they usually meet their spouses.

Most women seek acceptance of their own personal psychosis and when that acceptance is not given on a purely disfuntional level they will quite often act out in peculiar and at times subversive ways in accordance to the alignment of the planets and their own personal menstrual cycles.

In reality there is very little hope for the future and that remains of male/female relationships is an occasional bang in the ass when the stress level rises to the point of delirium.

Everyone aboard ship well!

 

I like some kinds of pie. But I refuse to eat pork pie. I like cheesecake but I rarely eat it. I much prefer yoghurt.

Is this a thread about food?
