Why cant a man be both??? - lots of women are - we all can go throught the three emotions! Just because someone is caring it doesny make them boring. I find caring kind of exciting actually!

It takes all sorts, as they say. And people are always changing, and have different sides to their personality. Also the same question could be asked disregarding gender. Anyway, is it the person that is boring or the situation.

Actually, i do like a man who's a good listener, caring but fun!!! You can have that, and i have met blokes like it.
However, I like someone with initiative, who don't need mothering though lol this i've yet to come across!!! lol

Also, if someone jokes around majority of their life, how are we supposed to know that they do take on a lot of aspects seriously. For one, a relationship?

A person who messes around all the time in a joking manner, so far, from what i've seen do not take relationships seriously. You can have fun in a relationship and make it exciting, but depends on if both parties are prepared too!!

It has to be both, with spontanious actions !! As many have said there is a time and a place . I like a sensitive man, but maybe im the only one who knows how careing he really is. has to be able to make me laugh in those real down moments but i dont want a joker as like the above poster has already stated they're not really taking the relationship seriousley, Just those US moments, you , me and no 1 ese..... ahhh i can dream cant i!

Over caring can be suffocating and can destroy respect for a person. I wouldnt say this unless I had first hand experience. I always thought I wanted someone who would love me so much that nothing I did would shake that love. Be careful what you wish for because I got it and at the risk of sounding selfish and uncaring, it made me very unhappy.

I think I've discovered the problem

But when you sit and chat and listen to them and try giving advice


It's the advice giving bit. NO NO NO NO NO When will some men realise that we don't want the advice we just want to let off steam.

I will give you an example

Me: Rant Rant Rant
Him: You finished now
Me : No, and what's more blah di blah di blah
Him: Got it all of your chest now?
Me: Yes
Him: Do you want a hug?
Me: No, piss off and leave me alone
Him: Goes and makes me a cup of tea, then gives me a hug. No words necessary.

See it's easy.

Have anyone of you ever thought that on both sides we are guessing at what the other side wants? If a person isn't giving you what you need but they have the quality's that you like do as GG has just jokingly done TELL THEM!
Its not rocket science, no one gives you a user manual on how to interact with people, most learn from interactions within the family as kids, however not everyone has a good role model of that and frequently don't get it at School either so they never learn.
It is a common thing said that us men will try to analyze the problems and offer fixes were as you girls only listen and commiserate perhaps that's part of the difference that makes a good couple work well.

Then end line of what you girls supposedly want is that the man doesn't bother listening because you don't want him to reply.

I agree with Eve.

There's a place for caring, and a place for exciting in ANYONE's personality.

I want both.

One is not exclusive of the other, surely?
(or perhaps it is, and that is whay I'm on this bloody site?!?!)

I think the question alone is utter ballcox!

itr asks a comparison between exciting (1 word) and overcaring & boring (2 words)..

WTF?.. since when did 'overcaring' and 'boring' go together? really bad comparison. the opposite of exciting IS boring not overf caring and boring.

and aren't people different things at different times?.. I'd hate to have someone on full spark alert all the time THAT would be boring!

lads, don't get a complex about this: it's a worthless comparison

women want someone, who will love them for what they are, that means accept them,women dont need an overpowering man. yes, someone who cares, not boring, a man who will listen when a woman wants to talk,not just grunt and say ok. and not also, who thinks they can own us. at the end of the day, we do have minds of our own.

As I presume caring means a man who can listen and talk and compromise I wouldn't have thought any of those attributes were in the slightest bit boring.

Where do I find a lass who can listen talk and compromise?

Oh, and be exciting

I have to agree with tizzywizzy (msg48), I want someone who will love me for who I am, except my faults, and I have a few of them lol, Someone who will understand that I am my own person, someone who doesn't put me down all the time, someone who will not smother me, and except that I have a life away from them, doing my own thing. Someone who doesn't get the a*** when i say I can do things for myself, like change a plug or something silly, someone who will not grunt or ignore me if i'm in the mood for an argument lol, Someone I can respect and who respects me, and someone who will have the balls to tell me if i'm being out of order, I don't want anyone I can walk over, nor do I want anyone who will try and walk over me.
And most of all someone who doesn't hog the TV remote
