I don't know what other women are looking for, but as for me I want:
1. A man who is mature
2. A man who can get along with my family
3. A man who doesn't mind that I have a kid
4. A man who doesn't mind my HUGE ass and "B" cup breasts
5. Someone who can be himself and not be ashamed of it
6. But most of all a man who can show me a good time and make me want to come back for more.

This may have been touched on before but...

OP: if you write your e-mails in the same fashion as you wrote this post, the outcome you describe doesn't surprise me.

You don't have to be a perfect speller or grammarian, but geez, dude, my eyes almost fell outta my head trying to read and make sense of your post here.

Use paragraphs - and leave a space or two between the period and the first letter of the nest sentence!

Seriously, if you clean up your typing skills, you may just find women start typing back. Worth a try. ;-)

So, did you call her?
Yes! I called her the first time and got a text message about 10 minutes later. I waited a few days and called again. I got another text message. I called a third time about 3 days later and didn't hear a peep. I deleted her off my hotlist and deleted all the messages.

oh you seem to have been meeting the wrong kind of women for you. I personally want the best because I think I deserve the best so my wonderful man must be out there with the wrong women.
Just remember that one day you would meet the right one for you and you would understand why it never worked with the rest...cheer up buddy!

They are looking for men who, on a scale of one to ten, are twelves, and who can jump through rings of fire and come out unscathed, with dollar bills. Not my opinion. A woman actually emailed that to me

You know it's so rare and feels so good, when you can just be yourself with someone you feel comfortable with. You know, when you're with your best friend?
And you can just lay back, and be yourself? I lost my best friend when the last long term relationship I was in ended. And I really miss being able to just kick back and feel totally at ease… feel totally relaxed and comfortable with another person.
I mean, we're all together in this life. When you go inside and ask yourself who you are, you begin to realize that we all share the same basic hopes and dreams and fears and fantasies.
It can feel so good to drop your shell and just be yourself, with a person that you can be genuine with and feel good with. You ever just do that?
Now, with me, I find that lets me open up and really connect with someone on a deeper level. You ever feel that way with someone?
Can you remember how good and natural that feels?
What women want is just the same thing that men want...both just do not realize it yet or are going to the same place by different routes.
Make a list of values that you believe in, and live those values
Share it with someone of the other sex and compare their list with yours.

I'd have to say I am looking for someone who is an equal in most respects. I have posted what I prefer, but that's not saying I wont bend a little. I just want someone genuine, who can carry on a multi-faceted conversation that involves the many aspects of life, appreciates me for the person that I am.. etc., etc. I'm by NO means perfect, I'm just me - and I like me :)

I seem to find on here- though, that a lot of the men I have spoken to say they want one thing or don't mind other things - but really don't mean it. They mostly seem to want trophies, or someone who wants to watch sports, hike, camp, fish, etc. That stuff is all great, but hey, I have my interests too... (I'm not much into sports, hiking hurts, my idea of camping is a Motel 6, fishing is ok as long as I dont have to gut it.. hehe.) But I'll try most anything. I'm just not super physically active (physical problems prevent this...) and thats what I run into alot on here... gym fanatics, or HWP- which I must say, I know very FEW women who are.

I am totally put off by men who immediately start questioning my 'build', or venture into sexual conversation right away. Now - I'm not a prude by any means, but to me, that type of conversation is saved for once you get to know someone a little better, but inevitably it always comes up. Always. I saw someone in here say something about "Just because I don't want to have sex with you, does'nt mean I don't want to have sex" Thats very true. I'm just uncomfortable thinking that someone wants to talk about the bedroom before even knowing ME. When those bits start failing you in the years to come, what will you have to fall back on? A relationship is NOT based on it, at least not in my world. Sure, it's a part of it -- but let nature take it's course!

Hmm.. wow.. ok I got a little off course for my first post.. sorry y'all! Just in case someone wants to flame me for grammar/spelling - please check yours before you do.. hehe. I've seen that alot in here since I've been forum lurking hehe

I think it's important to realize that... no matter what the profile says, that anyone's 'interest level' is proportional to your looks. You can do some social experimentation if you want but I already have a good idea what you'll find.

Get a picture of some good looking guy or girl, make a profile that's very similar and see what you find. Then again, you could make some really boring profile and top it off with poor spelling and grammar.
Many of the women/men whom you felt were legit candidates looks-wise will probably view the new profile... they may even send a message to see if the person is interested in them... never mind the fact that this guy/gal is way out of their league looks-wise. You get the picture.

I think a lot of people (men and women) are not here so much for the fishing.. as they are for landing the impossible fish.

The right ones will eventually come along but it is a game for some, make no mistake about it.

Most women don't even really know what they want and so naturally, men are confused by the indecisiveness/confusion of women. For example; they've done studies at universities which confirm that most women go for guys who are manipulative and short-term material, despite the fact that many of them say that they just want a 'nice guy' who treats them right. It's normal to be confused by people who are themselves confused.

The surest way to make women want you is lots of money...the surest way to make women like you for who you are...there isn't one.

I still believe most women go for appearance, attitude, assertiveness, and a good line of smooth talking. As a lot of men base who they date off physical attractiveness. Like i said before, people need to be more realistic about who they are, and what they expect in someone else.
I have heard from some, but not all women think looks are very important. All i can say is, It is just as hard for men as it is for women.
Just think if someone was an amputee, disfigured, or had a serious handicap they might as well forget it.

there is no concrete answer to what women are looking for....the same way you cant tell me why im single and cant find "the one"....its either there or it isnt...i wouldnt take it personally...i do believe everyone should at least respond back whether its a yes or a no thank you....if they cant even do that then that should tell you they really arent worth talking to anyway. everyone has different likes as in physical appearance, height, weight, etc....but outside of that some people may not think that u guys would have much in common, maybe they have kids and u dont or vice versa....alot of times its also in what your profile sounds like...is it positive, is it the same ole same ole crap...did u just write 15 words or did you write a whole book...believe it or not you can tell alot about a person just by reading how they type, how they say things and what their talking about in their profile...be unique, be yourself, and never smother someone...if they respond great, if they dont, no love lost...good luck

Hugh Jackman. Har, har.

No, but seriously folks... we're looking for the same things men are. Love, patience, reliability, a best friend, lover, partner in crime, etc.

It's not rocket science.

That is very true. I know i shouldn't take it personally, but it does get old meeting people and it is the same garbage. We have nothing in common or your a lot of fun to hang out with, but your not my type. I do agree people should at least respond back and let that person know what is going on. All i can say is i am no expert by any means on all this stuff. Thanks for the words of confidence!

When it comes to the whole what women want , what men want question it's really up to the individual that poses that question: So it's probably better to focus on your wants and expectations in a ideal mate and think about all the best qualities you could find in someone to be the ideal mate for you and more likely than not if u focus on more of that you will probably meet that someone your looking for, whether it's honesty,trust ,dedication, intellect, etc.

It's just like if u look at even say ur closest and best of friends why do hang with them?, why do talk with them?, cus somewhere down the line you formed a bond with them based on relating with one another on some level and building on it ,the same is true with finding a good mate and having a good relationship.

Sometimes the best things happen to those who wait and it could happen when you least expect it to by then you come to appreciate , what you were searching for when you finally find or have it.
