It seems like so many guys' profiles on here specify that they hate drama; are looking for a relationship without drama... etc! What does "drama" mean in that instance?

A woman asked the same question last night. Drama, as I see it usually refers to people who are "high maintenance", or people who are just plain volatile, over react to things etc etc. Drama also stems from those who become easily jealous.
In short, nobody admits to being a "drama queen". Everyone hates drama, but drama can stem from anywhere really.

mainly you don't have a psycho ex out there stalking you and making every guy that comes along life's miserable when they try to date you.

keeping the number of babies daddies to preferably 1.

and that most of the women in the workplace don't have a restraining order against you.

Drama simply means that they want “an easy headache free” relationship. Now isTHAT very realistic? I doubt it. So whenever you see that, you can just tell yourself that they simply want an “imaginary-pain free” realationship. Perhaps with time, they will earn how to cope with those types of situations.

I agree, everyone has DRAMA , Whats most important is how a person handles dramatic situations !
Some people freak out and blow things up making most of there days crazy
and
Some people deal with the issue and move on with class..

"hate drama" means that they'd like a relationship similar to driving on a go-cart track, without any dangers of going off the road. What a bunch think of as drama is just the normal developments establishing whether thing tick on a few levels. There's always going to be difficulties establishing something that works.

If your guy really wants no drama ask him to drop in on one of those church functions that arrange dates between seriously retarded adults. He can wear a big yellow plastic card around his neck and at 8:35 ride home with his caretaker.

If they state that they hate drama
it means they get pulled into a lot of drama
people who get pulled into a lot of drama
are usually drama-prone themselves.

So when you see "hate drama" keep in mind that it really means "drama drama drama".

Drama is not the presence of problems. Everyone has that in their life. Drama is habitual bad-decision making when problems arise, typically followed by a lack of responsibility.

For example:
Being poor/broke is not drama. Living way above your means is drama.
A crazy ex in your past is not drama. Sending mixed signals to your crazy ex and wondering why he still bothers you is drama.
Being someone who likes to have a good time is not drama. A bipolar alcoholic man-hater is the personification of drama.
Having a kid is not drama. Being an unfit mother and expecting a man who is not the father to pick up your slack, that's drama.


Make sense?

They don't want a girl that is going to be a **** for no reason. They don't want a girl that is going to be with other guys and make them jealous.

Drama stems from people who would rather make a big deal of a small grievance, never forget that time when you were 20 mins late, seems never to be happy with how you are but what you could be.
Drama Queens is someone who seeks conflict, easily offended, never wrong etc.

I think of drama as acting and over reacting to situations. Some people seem to draw drama energy to them they thrive on chaos and revel in the attention that also comes from it. I am a laid back, low stress, and very easygoing person that kind of energy is counterproductive in my world and is avoided at all costs. Don't get it twisted I love excitement in my lady just not the kind that requires 1. an audience 2. police involvement 3. threats of violence from neighbors,family, or friends.

The most ambiguous word on dating sites.

No Drama means. You have the following
No exes
No life
Awsome job
The perfect family
Live next door to the one your dating

Not only all this, but you must have plenty of friends.... Those too would also conform to the above rules.

Women yelling at you, "venting" their feelings, giving guys the "silent treatment", making every issue a big deal instead of just letting things naturally take their course.

Generally speaking guys like to have a woman's approval and admiration and feel TERRIBLE when they have criticism or disapproval of any kind from their partner.

I know it sounds stupid to a woman but believe me some of the things woman like sound stupid to us too.

So anything you can do to avoid showing disapproval and to be a force of peace, harmony and happiness in a relationship is a plus.

That doesn't mean you have to be happy and never disagree...but the more you do it in a low key respectful way and make it as painless and drama free as possible the more likely it is the guy is going to be happy to be with you.

"Drama" is a euphemism for trouble and anxiety.
