| | Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or GoddessPage 6 of 7 (1, 2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) | No man either online or in real life has ever claimed that he'd treat me as a Princess or a Goddess. I've read a lot of male profiles over the years (being a forum veteran), and I can honestly say I don't recall seeing that phrase in a single one.
Where are these guys? I guess my profile must be a chump - er, sorry, Princess/Goddess-seeker - repellant. Which is a good thing, because I'd be a terrible disapointment to the poor chump, er, guy. | |

I can't tell you how many times I've heard a guy say, "I treated her like a princess, I gave her EVERYTHING, gave up all I had, and I don't know what happened!" As if you spoiling the wench rotten was going to ensure she stays devoted to you for life? C'mon, stop fooling yourselves. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/17/2011 5:05:41 PM | Princess is a repellant, so is Diva, Queeny, Goddess, "Mistress' and 'Mother"
if you have to pidgeon hole your personality to a label like any of the above, we aint getting along; and in large doses. Remember the last 'Knight' of any note was trying to tip over windmills thinking they were dragons to be slayed. That fairy tale was dead over hundreds of years ago, let it rest already. Hell even the girls in Castles dont get the happy ending... or did you miss the whole Shania Twain fiasco ? | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/17/2011 5:49:46 PM | ^^^tell me about it. When I saw a profile where the man said he would treat you like a queen/princess yadda yadda yadda, I always clicked next.
People want to be treated nicely and to be made to feel special in that person's eyes. In the ideal situation, both partners are going to feel special.
This doesn't need to be put in profiles because if it's not a match, nobody's gonna be feeling like a princess.
Plus, I kinda worry about farting around these guys who want princesses.....  | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/17/2011 8:20:52 PM | | I avoid them like the plague. I don't care to even read any further. Go play fairytale somewhere else. Most the times these women are clingy, totally superficial, and have no realistic traits I would look for in a long term partner. Usually they got by on looks, add in wrinkles and age, well just a shell. Learned long ago... | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/17/2011 8:40:51 PM | ^^^ Ummm...the OP was talking about men who have that in their profiles, not women who claim to be princesses or goddesses in their profiles. However, if all the self-named princesses would hook up with the guys who say they're looking for princesses, wouldn't we all be better off?  | |

What do you do with those guys that claim they will treat you like A Princess? Or, A Goddess? I am very turned off by this. Think it is total BS. I think they are saying what they think you want to hear. Also, I don't want to be treated like a princess/queen or goddess. I want to be treated like a woman.
A man that treats a woman with respect and integrity ... That's what a man should do, what anyone should do to other people, treat you with respect and integrity. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/18/2011 12:50:45 AM | Sounds like losers to me. This is the 21st century, us "men" are not obliged to treat women like "princesses" or "goddesses". We treat each other equally.
If they do, they are either living in a fantasy/sci-fi world or they'll proceed to be walked on like a rug for the rest of their sad life. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/18/2011 7:42:51 PM | | If you think your going to find your "prince charming" via POF than I think your screwed anyways. The problem is people are not honest enough in general. Obviously that is what you are looking for and you state that most likley very clearly in your profile. Sooo what will a guy do? Umm Strategy sayysss be a gentlemen. Stop looking for the man that makes the world stop moving and announcing that is what you are looking for and you will find a guy who is down to Earth. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/19/2011 7:32:50 AM | With over 3 million Users on POF there is bound to be a prince charming somewhere on here. I believe that people just look on by. Mostly it is only the picture that attracts us first. From there than a person tries to talk and find out about the person. I agree with you about finding a guy that's down to earth.
POF isn't a bad website. Only thing is there is a lot of choices and we are selective.
So it is not about finding prince charming or having prince charming come to us. It is more like we may pass the guy by while we on the meet me feature, or the search function. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/19/2011 8:38:56 AM | | ^^^ That was an insightful post and your exactly right. To often people are put into the chattle position which in real life they would very much be the person for them. I can't tell ya the number of times I dated someone off this site that all the sudden turned cold, because a new prospect just simply emailed them. I wish they were honest in the first place that I wasn't what they were looking for. Gunna have some of that I guess, with all the choices why settle for one type mentality. At least they showed their true colors, and aren't worth 2 squirts... | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/19/2011 8:44:44 AM | My ex's POF profile claims he treats his gf's like "queens" ... I laughed when I read that. If that's how a queen is treated... its not good.
VS my boyfriend now, who treats me better than anyone ever has.. yet never said anything like that. | |

| Claiming To Treat You Like A Princess Or Goddess Posted: 6/19/2011 10:08:55 AM | It is also easier to do if one is so inclined. I can see where a guy, especially one who holds the attitude "it's only money" can be open handed in a material way and be very stingy when it comes to matters of importance.
So many women cop the attitude of "I want respect and I want it now". It doesn't occur to them that with some men it is not so cheaply won. He might be generous enough to give her something or do something for her but won't give her a character reference or actually consider her thoughts. Those things mean more to him. To get them, she has to mean more to him. To get there, she has to do more than show up.
I respect my father. How can some strange female feel herself entitled to the same level of esteem that the man who took care of me and tought me everything I know can rightfully claim? Yet people are trying to tell us that all they want is respect. They don't realize that that is a lot to ask ... way more than mere material items.
Why do some men claim to treat you like a princess? It might be nothing to part with a few baubles so long as he doesn't have to hold you in any regard. So he is comfortable saying so. | |

Very good point!
I myself am suspicious of guys like these. In my experience, the ones who have to say it aren't the ones who know how to DO it. | |

Being treated like a Goddess: you're untouchable and people leave offerings on your doorstep so you don't smite them.
Both sound like boring, abusive, lonely lives. | |
