dating and relationships...one man's opinion

Am I the only single male who thinks that women all seem to want either:

a. Someone whom they can change...but will leave if they actually CAN change him.

b. a Thug with a ghost of a sensitive side that only THEY can see.

c. A complete wuss whom they can push and bully

d. An ATM that looks good in a suit whom they can show off at parties.

        Perhaps I'm getting jaded in my old age.  Maybe I've received the "You're a really sweet guy and everything.." speech that all females must commit to memory at 13 or when they develop breasts. Perhaps I've been cheated on too many times or have had too many women tell me that I didn't make enough money, but I've grown cynical.

       This is NOT to say that we men don't have unrealistic expectations of women or that we always treat them fairly, but why the hell is it so difficult for the sexes to simply enjoy being around one another without imposing stupid guidelines on one another?

Hey I'm just venting...so please don't take offense to any of this.

I'm sort of surprised by this post Dread. You're easy on the eyes and seem to have good values and enjoy life. I'd think you'd be a good catch!

Come on Dread we are not all like that. My hubby had nada when we met and I broke up with a guy that had it ALL for the man that had nothing. I met my hubby and I new everything would be great in this mans arms.
Don't get me wrong we have had our days but at the end of the day I know that everythin we have we built together.
I know your queen is out there she is just waiting on the right momnet to jump on you.

Dread: A suggestion? I'm not trying to presume to know what your life is like, but this is just my personal experience and if you can use some of this, great, and if not, just ignore. I discovered that I was choosing the wrong men because of things in my past. Because of my dysfunctional past, I could choose the people who were unavailable to me --emotionally unavailable, abusive, abusers, etc. I started doing a lot of reading and found out that the chemical reaction I was feeling was me choosing the wrong people. When I met Jeff, there was no chemistry at first. I was intrigued that he could hold an intelligent conversation, was polite, etc. We met on July 4, 1990, got married Oct 24, 1992 and not that we haven't had our rough spots, we've moved into the mature love of our growth. Maybe you are just choosing the wrong women??? I mean no disrespect, but from your blogs, I agree with WW -- you seem like an excellent catch.

Thanks for tolerating me people I wasn't trying to work anyone's nerves, I just had a woman (whom I've had feelings for for years) proposition ME and then change her mind at the last minute. That doesn't bug me, because a man has the right to change her mind, but after she changed it she told me that she just didn't find me attractive. But when telling me about the guy she WAS into now mentioned how great a job he had and how he was a great prospective husband and could provide for her and some kids. While I know security is important she made it seem as if the type of person a man is counts for nothing. Oh well.

TYPO ALERT "A woman has the right to change her mind." BTW I jokingly flirt with Pattie, but I KNOW she's happily married and I just do so for fun. She's my favorite newscaster because she strikes me as that next door neighbor who you would always welcome into your home. No offense to the rest of the newsteam, but she seems to be more accessable...although if she were the friendly neighbor Lanny would be the guy on the other side of you. Sabila would be the bikini clad (frequently sunbathing) hottie a couple of doors down who always asked you to mow her lawn/paint her house and Iscovitz would be Kramer-esque but without the racial slurs...and he wouldn't be a DOLPHIN FAN!

Dread-Head,

Don't worry about what women want.

Concentrate on doing the right thing, being sensitive, compassionate and a good conversationalist.

Then find a lady who enjoys doing what you like doing and just maybe, you'll have someone who shares a lot in common with you.

Dread, I'm on my third marriage, and let me tell you, it's just as bad from my side.

I never planned on being 43 with 3 divorces under my belt, but that looks like where its headed. It seems that most of the guys I favor are just as sweet and supportive..until you marry them. Then, they turn into a big kid, not even that, a TEENAGER, who lays around, does nothing, are sloppy and dirty and then gripe about you being a nag when you ask them to contribute more than a paycheck.
Trust me..by the time the dust settles on this one, I'm getting an apartment, and I'll be like you..no more romance.
My taste in men only gets me in trouble, and since I have a daughter now who has a lot to lose emotionally when I get in a relationship, dating won't even be an option until she's in college.
I figure that's okay. I dated plenty, loved a few, was loved in return. Can't really complain, but I know when it's time to give up.

I have always been amazed at "REALLY attractive, people" who cannot maintain a relationship, while some fat, skinny, ugly, obnoxious people have all the luck!!
I finally gathered that these people have problems, (are boring, demanding, devious, or some like problem) which others find obnoxious.
You are a attractive guy, very nice, but SOMETHING may be wrong.
You may search for it, ask someone to be honest--may help-??
Good luck!

I love movies, football (go Texans!) cooking, reading, anime and getting my "news Jones" on. I read Associated Press, Reuters, UPI and the BBC when I get a chance and have been watching Fox news since Fran Fawcett (Farah's sister) was an anchor. I love the morning news and Pattie is just too cuddly-sexy-cute not to be my favorite.
