| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 3/24/2008 7:54:08 PM | Don't think I have ever heard of a woman telling a man she will treat him like a king or a prince.
It's funny how people think they treat others and how they really treat them. My father says he put my mother on a pedestal ( long sense divorced ) I remember how he said horrible things to her, put her down and she sat and took it.
If he had her on a pedestal, he was chopping at it with an ax. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 3/24/2008 9:18:34 PM | I don't want to be treated like a princess or a goddess....I want to be with a man who is a good match for me, not one who follows me around like a lovesick puppy and feels he needs to buy my affections (either with gifts or through deeds). There is very little as unattractive to me as a man who thinks I'm too good for him and never stops pointing it out to me. Challenge me, be my approximate equal on various levels, show respect but also expect respect, and we'll be juuuuuust fine.

You're right most men and women alike use that statement as a sales gimmick for the most part. There are those that mean it as well though. Dating is like anything in life, you can buy a brand new car right off the showroom floor and it can be an absolute lemon. If what you find doesn't live up to the advertisement, recite the lemon law and trade them in. | |

I disagree entirely. A profile is like a calling card - a bio that tells ppl what they can expect from you. They should be honest and straightforward - questioning their content when that person has contacted you is just sensible.
Suppose for instance I write that I am a serial killer and into bondage...would that interest you in a first date? | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 5/12/2008 11:55:26 AM | | You can only be treated as you want to be if you present yourself in thatfashion. If you have to throw all those sexy pics on for everyone to see - well what the hell are they going to think about you? I amnot saying it is a horrible thing to do but to some men it might be taken the wrong way. Respect requires respect. No I am not sticking up for the guys either. You know think with something else than their brain but if you are speaking with someone and you don't think they are being honest or respectful cut them off right there and move on. Only you can prevent this happening to yourself. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 5/12/2008 3:36:40 PM | | it's definitely possible to find a guy who will treat you like a princess, or at least remember to bring you a drink too when he goes to the kitchen during the movie....remember, love is wanting to make day to day life with someone an enjoyable thing and not just ............... | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 5/12/2008 3:56:16 PM | Next time a man says or writes that to you, ask him to elaborate on that thought. Chances are he will fumble his words or not have a clue what to say to you. Seriously, try it, it can be very entertaining. All that glitters is not gold. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 5/12/2008 6:27:24 PM | | I just want to be treated with respect by my equal. As soon as I buy myself a castle, I'll hire subjects to treat me like a princess or godess. It's stupid, right up there with " I treat women with the respect they deserve". Huh? how about you just treat people with respect, period! | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 5/12/2008 7:53:04 PM | I had this on my profile once..
If you're looking for a princess or a queen, as far as I know we don't have a royal family in the United States so you won't find one here...but hey Disneyworld has a few along with some princes; but remember a few of them were evil  | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 5/12/2008 8:08:12 PM | If someone wants to be a “princess” or “goddess,” I’ll just laugh and walk away because that tells me that she has too many unrealistic expectations to be a good friend. - dbndon > Exactly. Very astute and right on the mark. > There are too many would-be goddesses and the like stalking these pages, expecting to be fanned with palms and treated as if their you-know-what doesn't smell like the rest of us mortals, as if the men have to 'win' them over, buy their love (what about his love? isn't it worth anything?) and win their approval. > I see headlines like, "Treat me like the queen I am," etc, and I shiver to my timbers. I avoid these people like the plague. Give me a down-to-earth woman any day, a woman who seeks an equal, not some egotist with her nose in the air. > And thanks for the history lesson, Don. I could listen to this all day. > Best wishes - Soul Union. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 5/12/2008 8:16:54 PM | | Generally when someone feels the need to make such an announcement, it is quite likely that exactly the opposite is true, particularly if something is a factoid that should be a given like men and women should share the housework. If this needs to be announced as if it is a new prime number, the person is trying way too hard to convince himself and is not likely to convince me. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 7/12/2008 5:00:33 PM | Princess/Queen - you'll be on a pedestal, but be careful... its lonely up there, and its a hard fall when you slip and come crashing down! 
(FYI, guys who "proclaim" this are probably self-proclaimed "nice guys" too, who rarely are such in real life - the ones who really are have no need to "proclaim" such to the world, its just who they are).
Goddess - umm... watch your pets, or the neighbors - I believe that blood sacrifice might be involved!  | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 7/12/2008 9:34:39 PM | i like attention and affection as much as the next girl, but i don't like those excessive showy or syrupy displays. a guy who would serenade me at my balcony or leave a trail of rose petals leading to the bedroom or who calls me his "princess" and puts me on a pedestal would seem almost nauseatingly sweet. that stuff is for melodramatic chick flicks, not for real life relationships.
sure bring me flowers *just because* occasionally, send me little text messages to say you miss me, or give me a little hug and squeeze then tell me you love me...but don't put on a big act or a big show, because i won't believe it's sincere. the big spectacles usually aren't. i may even begin to wonder if you've done something stupid that you're feeling guilty for. i don't like or trust things that seem fake and forced like that. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 7/13/2008 11:44:57 AM | | Yeah, insightful point. I had a date treat me fairly disrespectfully once. So after I moved on, he came up with the 'trip out of town invitation' and his exact words were 'I promise to treat you like a queen and me the pauper/servant" . My response? I told him I'd be a fool to believe he would treat me like a queen and I didnt need a servant, and have a good trip-WITHOUT ME! | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 7/13/2008 11:54:45 AM | I am guessing when they say such things it is to grab attention or stress that he likes to pamper his lady? Most women would like to be pampered or spoiled occassionally but must also realize it's a two way street and if you would like your man to treat you a certain way you should do the same in return!
Personally I would prefer a man who is honest, that will treat you with respect and trust, someone who treats you as a partner rather than as a possession! No one is perfect but I think the guys who make all those claims of treating a woman like a princess or goddess would like for us to think that they are perfect!? | |
