StayFrosty Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 An interesting link was sent to me recently, it was about unbalanced expectations of men from women, throwing light on a number of indiscrepancies and unfair demands. I have been following a few connected links since, a convoluted journey and pretty much flogging an over flogged dead horse, but I note it does seem to be an ongoing issue...and though people are sick of it, it doesn't seem to be any closer to resolution....And now has made me curious about men's take on my 'title' issue... What is it men want women to want them for?...Not what you believe women want you for, but what do you want to be wanted for?
( ͡° ͜ʖ ͡°) Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 For me, I'd prefer to be wanted for company and friendship. My charm and wit. Not wealth/finances, not status, not power, not looks.
osmondheart Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 I'd personally want to be wanted for my exemplary taste in lesbian porn. Aside from that, it'd be nice to know she enjoys my presence and personality, and that we share interests. c:
Chaos63 Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 My smoldering good looks, of course. I don't work out for nothing.
Angrybird Posted June 20, 2014 Posted June 20, 2014 Both genders expect the other to be like them when in reality men and women have nothing to with each other.
garbert Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Wouldn't the most honest answer be for who you are? I'd like it if a woman was with me for who I am as a person. As cliché as it sounds, it is the inside that counts, yet it is the outside we usually fall for. Exteriors in this case can usually change for better or for worse, hopefully for the better depending on the persons situation, but fixing the interior is much harder.

Shadowhawk827 Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 OK, I'll jump in on this one. I"ve done alot of reading of similar material as well as analysis of past relationships and partners. I think for a 46 year old dumbass I have a fairly good grip on this. I think the typical guy simply wants to be appreciated for their efforts and achievements. Not butt kissing, just a simple good job. Likewise also not having their shortcomings or failures rubbed in their faces. That doesn't mean you can't fuss occasionally or encourage us to do better in a positive manner. Just don't browbeat us or treat us like we're idiots constantly. I for one see enough of that "all guys are idiots" crap on nearly every TV show (esp SitComs) out there. Likewise, I think any decent guy would agree women are entitled to expect that same treatment from us. Treat others as you'd like to be treated after all. But this "I'm a Princess" mentality that alot of women have nowadays is way out of bounds though. Princesses are spoiled, sheltered, clueless and self-entitled. No (self respecting) guy wants to be with one.
azazil Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 while there no single penny left mutual respect,friendship, equality and love are bullshit the words of my uncle told to me after his marriage no matter hot your aunt she will become a monster when she ask for new car (@@) when the whore love a man that's what is called the true love because she want you not your property “Beware that, when fighting monsters, you yourself do not become a monster... for when you gaze long into the abyss. The abyss gazes also into you.” ― Friedrich Nietzsche
...0... Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 Nietzsche loved his own sister. You have very strange and negative view of world and men women relationships. Its not all monster or foulplay money or materials on this planet there also fairytale storys somewhere i know rare but they excist. I understand the negative in you quoting nietzsche hehe. Many philosphers had it also very wrong in many ways don't always believe what they are saying. Make your own truth.
Yami X Posted June 21, 2014 Posted June 21, 2014 I never thought about this but I would hope being humble,being a good listener,being positive and having a strong will are good qualities to have.

Make your own truth. i based on fact “The best friend will probably acquire the best wife, because a good marriage is founded on the talent for friendship” maybe Prince William is the luckiest man on earth like his ancestor King Edward VIII as ambassador of love leave his throne just for love without border :'-) unlike http://bryanforbes.github.io/kardashian-calc/ “It is not a lack of love, but a lack of friendship that makes unhappy marriages.”
