...in terms of a girl?

(take 2 - this thread was accidentally deleted yesterday by a moderator and they failed to restore it, *grumble*...lol)

So, once again, in response to the 'what do women want' thread. This is a chance for all you guys to break the sad stereotyping that says all you care about is t&a. What qualities are you really looking for (or been lucky enough to find)? And if you replied yesterday, feel free to respond again today, lol!

    I've already commented that I want "you", but since that's not enough lol

    I want someone who will accept me for me, allow me my quirks that make me who I am, I want someone who is as concerned about being healthy as I am, I'd like someone with skills in two specific rooms in the house (bedroom and kitchen), someone who realizes I'm not psychic, and that I will change if you want me to, don't just expect me to know you want me to, but I will not change enough to compromise myself or my morals, also I want them to be caring, loving, giving, but not to the point they feel taken advantage of, I want it to be as close to 50/50 as possible, a love of animals, and a desire to spawn some chillens... I think that covers most of it.

    And yes, unfortunately I'm single, and I would bring flowers on the second date... maybe even the first (per another thread).

    :huh: A guy WANTS a woman to try "too" hard? I'm confused...not trying to be rude, just asking for clarification.

    Loyalty, integrity, kindness, generosity, shared interests and goals, sexual compatibility, roses on the second date...

    Someone with a sense of humor and is fun to be with..... t&a is great but boring is a mood killer no matter how hot she is.

    Vapid is not sexy.

    I don't think a guy knows what he wants. We just figure it out as we go along. That's called "settling down."

    I don't think women know what they want either. But when they finally decide. That's called "settling."

    lol

    I don't think bringing flowers on the second date is trying too hard. I personally am not a huge fan of flowers, but if my husband had brought flowers on our second date (or even the first), I wouldn't have dumped him over that.

    proves my point before too... girls want ANYTHING that they cant have... they will sit there telling their gf's they wish they had a guy that was romantic and bring her flowers etc... finds a guy that bring flowers to a date trying to be romantic n she tells her gf's they laugh bout it n she doesnt talk to him anymore...

    i know i got HUGE hate out for woman!!! all i see is shallow, selfish, self centered, money hungry, greedy, *****ty, disrepectful things that dont even know what they want but they are always right?... i know im going to get alot of b*tching and whining... but honestly... i will see a girl.. she'll start talking.. n i just want to shoot myself in the face because she is exactly what i just described within the first 2min into a conversation...

    had to add-also they are NEVER! wrong NEVER EVER will they admit their fault! they will rather jump off a bridge or look stupid than admit they are wrong! their princesses.... for some reason their always in denial....

    First, I would say that guys are hardwired with regards to the whole t&a issue. Genetic, biology or what ever you want to call it. The "need" to reproduce drives the "desire" to mate in pretty much every mammal. So in effect, the "stereotype" has a certain degree of truth and validity.

    Now with regards to the question: I cannot speak for anyone else but me, and what I want is: someone to share with. Yes, I desire a certain degree of what I find as physically attractiveness and I desire a certain level of intelligence along with a sense of humor. But what I "need" is a person to share the trials, tribulations, successes and failures of life with. A person who helps me as much as I would help her. A friend whom I can depend on no matter what!

    Lucky for me, I have been married to this woman for 21 years as of last Nov 10th.

    And, as a bonus, she is an awesome Mom to our two children.
