The three things that a man wants in a mate...
Posted: 7/23/2009 5:12:22 PM
Do you remember the good ole days when there were only books written by women for women about men detailing what it takes to get a man and keep him? Well now there are books written by men for women telling them what they need to know to get inside a man's head to keep him happy!

Spare me all this garbage ..It becomes a game and then once the ring is on the finger .. the worm turns so to speak. Both sexes get exactly what they deserve. Each and everyone of us is an individual and what works for you may not work for me. I believe I can send a fairly clear message to someone I am interested in what I like and don't like without hitting him on the head with it and if he choses to ignore what makes me tic ... well then not meant to be.

"slim waste"

Are you talking about those modern contraptions that compact your garbage into slim little squares?

Wow, I never really knew that that was a guy magnet, but I guess, men and their gadgets ;-)

waste and hefer? He needs to learn how to spell. I hear women who have slim waists, small feet and pretty faces only like stellar spellers who are not rude to large women.

you are just speaking for yourself right? because if it's true that ALL men want onlykindness, a good sense of humor and honesty, why in the world is everybody asking for a picture here on pof and then ignore a woman after knowing that she doesn'thave the looks they're looking for. please explain.

Face it guys, we're beat. Enough of our part of the species have tried lying, misrepresenting, and in general bu11$hittin' for so long that the womenfolk are on to us ... they know the code of the man-cave.

We say: "kindness ... sense of humor ... honesty"
Their interpretation: "big boobs ... owns a bar on a golf course ... deaf/mute"

We say: "sincerity ... fun loving ... not into drama"
Their interpretation: "big boobs ... owns a bar on a golf course ... deaf/mute"

We say: "big boobs ... owns a bar on a golf course ... deaf/mute"
Their interpretation: "run"

Ladies, you have my sympathies.
(Yes, yes ... I know ... "big boobs ... owns a bar ... ...")

No offense tahquamenon but if we were playing cards, now's about the time you'd hear me yell "BULLSH*T!" Show me a man who doesn't care about looks and I'll remind you that he's blind.

I agree with all of these things and believe it or not these are qualities women want as well. Looks have never been a real big thing with me as I have dated all types of men from short and balding to tall and handsome and they all had the above listed things in common which is why I was attracted to them in the first place. That and they all have great eyes, I love great eyes on a guy.

Duh...I just got it. He didn't say that's what a man wants in a woman.

He said, that's what a man wants in a 'mate'.

Now, that makes more sense. Don't most guys want their buddies to have a sense of humor as well as being hones. The kindness part may not be so usual, but it also explains the absence of looks. ;-)

Here's my list of what a man looks for in a mate.

1) Sex (and looks is part of that because she at least has to be attractive enough physically to give him a woody, which is necessary for sex).

2) Companionship (a woman to keep him company when he's eating out, going to the movies, and anything else that takes him out of his home except for work).

3) A maid (someone to cook for him and clean up after him).

Better hope that the thing a mate wants in a man isn't good counting skills.

OMG, I am seriously LMAO at this thread. *looks for emoticons to use judiciously javascript:smilie('')javascript:smilie('')javascript:smilie('')javascript:smilie('')* There!!

Msg 30 literally made me laugh out loud! I think he might have something there.

Rock and Commonsens crack me the hell up!! (Except obedience, Rock, bad boy!!)

Here's what I always thought men wanted:

1. Great smile, great kisser, great P BJ's. (gotta get the sammiches in there)

2. Always willing....to learn. (you're on your own here, folks)

3. Real Mayo. Seriously.

On the other hand, if the game is on, your a*s better be "sinches up" get me a beer!!

Hmm, three for men, one for me. Who knew?

1.) Self-validation. Frankly, most guys rush into relationships simply to defeat their single status. Having a trophy sex-partner ensures that all your buddies won't call you a loser.

2.) Unrelenting mutual obsession. Men are conditioned not to put their emotions up for display, so when they finally do come to surface, you're automatically consigned to a contract which explicitly forbids you to leave, compromise the feelings of, or otherwise dishonor your man.

3.) Sex; unless he's a eunuch.




Ah, number 1 is so very, very true. (That's why I am taking it slow with someone new....to make sure I'm not just a "rebound".)

Number 2 is something that took me a few years to learn.

Number 3 is important to me too, so we're good there.

How about brilliance, a scathing wit and low tolerance for incompetant leaders? Don't those count for anythig?
