So that's the problem...I forgot to post the instruction manual and warning label on my profile!!! Darn...I knew there was an easy fix...lol

Wedding Bells??? Wait a minute...hold the fort...who said I wanted wedding bells?
No way am I giving up my half of the ex's pension....yeah yeah whatever...throw it at me, I can take it. I say oh hush...I earned every bit of it and more!
Now about long term relationships...I'm all for that, just don't push a license at me, not playing that game again. In my experience men change when they get married. I know the old cliche that women do but I found my ex wasn't even the same man I met so forget that!
Live with me if you want but don't try to make the wedding bells ring please. I don't trust enough for that anymore!

Reminds me of an episode of The Closer. The Assistant Police Chief wanted ta Detective to retire. At the end of the show he asks the Detective why he won’t retire and he says if he does his ex will get half his pension and he would rather die at his desk then give her any more money.

Not me!

Sometimes I need to be put in my place! I don't want a woman that's going to put up with any undue crap because, lets be honest here, us men don't always know when we're being jerks and need to be told off sometimes.

I want a woman that will stand up for herself, not keep things inside and just put up with whatever because she thinks she has to and then one day decides she's going to break it off because I was upsetting her and didn't realize it.

I'm not going to lie, us men are dense as bricks sometimes and upset women without realizing it. TELL US! Don't bury it and then blow up one day out of nowhere!

Howie! Wanna get married?

You guys HATE to hear the truth! Seriously!
Last guy I dated was unhappy because I HAD to point out that every time we exited the car.....he would be off and running, leaving me behind.
Is there any REASON men can't wait a few extra seconds for us to gather our purse, etc., and then walk to our destination TOGETHER? Petty point, perhaps....but it really BOTHERED me......, sooo...........

God forbid if we TELL men that their behavior upsets us! If we DO stand up for ourselves.....we are tooo much trouble......!
We are upsetting the 'status quo'.....and male egos!

How refreshing to hear a man SAY (at least) that he wouldn't MIND some honesty about what turns us on.....or OFF! WOW!

I don't want a woman to act anything. I just want her to be herself and then let the chips fall where they may. If you act a way your not use to and feel uncomfortable. Will a woman feel comfortable making a change. Not for long. I act myself all the time. Alot of people may not like it. I just want that special someone to like it. I am honest, caring, fun, not rich and very easy going. I may not be the life of the party, but after, i can be. Did i just say that? All i want is to take my time enjoying the rest of my life. Married or not. If she is right. I will marry again. Not rushing into anything. I made a couple of mistakes and it cost me alot of years.
As far as not being able to handle the truth. Some of us guys don't have a problem sitting down and having a discussion. Talk things threw. Communication is a BIG part of a relationship. Women have to be able to take it as well as dish it out. I was talking to a woman and told her she was over reacting to something. She said that is the biggest crook of sh*t. That was my cue.
Hey Linda. Are you bringing that book to the party. I sure hope it has pictures. Will it be rapped in plastic wrap. Just teasing you dear. I hope you will save a dance for me.

Oh doc, I have no expectations when dating a guy other than to be treated as I treat him. Respect and thoughtfulness is all I want, no ring or wedding. Woman are open minded chatters, sometimes us just working things out verbally is just that, not a clue for you guys to think we are asking for more than you can give. Just because I talk about how much fun it would be to retire in the keys and be a beach bum doesn't mean I'm going to do it or do it anytime soon lol.
I'm less emotional and more analytical, so I don't fall so fast and easy. I don't give words much weight, the truth is in the actions. I haven't believed in Prince Charming or happy ever after for a long time. But I do believe in honesty, accountability, the comfort of a deep freindship, and cherishing one another.

I am not saying wedding bells are for everyone. I do think i will marry again. I did have on my profile long term. I changed it to dating for a reason. To see what one gets more response. I don't want to be on here for 5 years looking. If it takes that long then i guess it wasn't meant to be. So for now i am just taking it slow and see where that will go. I want to find my soulmate and live happily ever after. I do have alot of good qualities that i want to share. She will have the same good qualities. For now i am just window shopping.

OMG.. actions DO speak louder than words..

And doc..
"letting the chips fall where they may" is also what we women want to do. But.. i cant understand why its soooo hard for men to just be a boyfriend..it doesnt mean permanent ownership.. it means.. dating monogamy.. thats it. Marriage is reserved for that forever partner.. whom we have given a test of time. hell.. i can wait for 10 yrs for a wedding ring.. :)).. If a man shows me im soooo important to him in action.. the contract that the government provides us means very little.

*disclaimer.. I dont mean all women.. i dont mean all men.. but in my past.. dating monogamy was an issue with men.. they didnt want a b/f label.. but they wanted to "get it on".. Im like, if i want a hump and dump.. i can get a better physical specimen to do it.. so.. why? So, i got dumped ALOT for not putting out..

~*" Actions Speak Louder Than Words"*~ Oh yeahhhhhh baby! How many times have I needed to remember that and forgotten?
Words are just pretty things that mean nothing so many times. I've heard them but forgot to watch for the actions that back them up with all my excitement over those sweet lips spilling out lies!
Next time I hear "you're the only one" ....I'm going to say show me with your actions!
I'm not looking for Prince Charming anymore...I had him and it didn't do me any good.
Prince Charming tells lies too did you know that?

Well , as usual, I think this is another concept that is fine on its own, but we humans have managed to mess up. Let me explain,

In a relationship/marriage, and the OP specified he meant that and not sexually-thats for another thread, there is nothing wrong with a woman being considered submissive and the man dominant. Men by nature are more dominant, women more submissive. Of course there are exceptions, but as a rule thats pretty much our natures. Blame God, Darwin, whatever. Within that, a man can be strong, protective, and lead, but not be abusive or selfish. A woman can be feminine and nurturing, but still be intelligent and worthy of the utmost respect. If there is a conflict that cant be resolved, the man should get to try his way. Not so much his right as it is his responsibility as "head of household". All about love and respect.

Is this easy, no. Does our (at times) anti-male modern culture help, no. Do I have it all figured out personally, heck no. I just grow tired of people trashing the whole concept due to their ind. bad experience. My two cents, feel free to flame me now.

My bad, that's not exactly what I wanted...maybe anti-traditional marriage (i.e. male-led) culture, thats the best I can do, sorry.

i really don't care for the word submissive...to me it implies a concept just short of slavery...any intelligent woman should trust her natural instincts and know the limits of her problem solving/fixing capabilities...chivalry has been on a decline for years...females have taken on many responsibilities that diminishes femininity, hard to feel sexy after a day at work, and a day at housework too...but then a pair of strong arms, dang can't beat em'

No submissive for me ladies I just love a lady that speaks her mind it makes it more challenging just as long as they are not down right rude and emotionally abusive.

But their is also a time for a lady to be a lady and a man to be a man/gentlemen and for each other to respect and honor each others opinon and step back and let each other do their own thing and or work together as 1.

JUST SAYIN

Im somewhat easy going.. (*submissive?) But.. if i have to tell someone what they are doing wrong.. its too much hard work. I take responsibility for my actions.. and i usually know im doing wrong when i do it.. :))

If women were not generally sensitive to so many minor things then I'd agree with you, but the fact of the later is if we don't notice you parted your hair on the opposite side one day a year you'll get pissed. Then next year it happens again and you hold it against us.

Last date I went on I got the girl to submit in 14 seconds. She went to shake my hand and I applied an armbar. She tapped in 14 seconds, new record for me.
