    1. For a retired Marine, I seldom get pissed off, actually totally mellow.
    2. I do most the house chores, I spoil my wife, she takes care of me in other ways.
    3. Every time I watch "It's a Wonderful Life", I cry at the end when Harry Bailey says" to my big brother George, the richest man in Bedford Falls", both of my brothers are dead, still dealing with 7 sisters.
    4. When my kids were little I would wash them and change their diapers, along with my wife.

    I might be 41, single, never married and no kids. It doesn't mean I'm a player, not kid friendly and selfish

    Love sports, hate pink.
  • I don't want kids.
    I really admire six packs on women.
    I can't iron.
    I hate wearing socks.
    I think the cinema is a pants idea for a date or day out with friends. I can watch films at home for cheaper, quicker, more convenient and with better access to snacks - without the hassle of uncontrollable volume, strange people and how it is socially unacceptable to sit like a slob and not get judged in public...
    I wear make up, but not on my eyes.
    Holding hands makes me cringe, even if I'm not the one doing it.
    Babies aren't cute to me. In fact, they're actually pretty creepy. I've never held/touched/associated with one on top of that.
    I love clutter.
    My ideal date: Chinese - with prawn crackers obviously, the couch, my pyjamas and a games console. Bliss!
    Also, I wear pyjamas. Pants and baggy tops. None of these frilly nighties or silk dress kind of things.
    I can't understand paranoid girlfriends.
    I LOVE my personal space and "me time".
    I don't, and never have, wanted a beach wedding.
    I've idolized and dreamt of being Uma Thurman in Kill Bill more than a Kardashian or whatever else is supposedly hot nowadays.

    There's probably loads more, but that'll do for now. :')
  • Oh God, there's loads actually.

    I'd love a Doberman.
    I want to own a carvery.
    I absolutely love Sci-Fi.
    I believe in magic and ghosts.
    I believe in Hell more than Heaven.
    Tea is boring.
    My sandwiches are rubbish.
    I'd rather spend a day in an amusement park instead of the beach.
    I hate having gifts bought for me.
    The cheaper date, the better.

    And now I'll stop. :blushing:

    GET OUT OF MY HEAD!
    ..and into your? ;)
    I forgot to mention that SAW 1 through SAW 7 are my all time favorite movies and I watch them over and over. P.S. Never seen the Notebook and you couldn't pay me in Ducati motorcycles to watch that or Brokeback Mountain either. Ok well, you would HAVE to pay me in Ducati motorcycles to watch any of that kind of film. I can't stand chick flicks either or anything that has to do with the "girl getting the guy" at the end and her waiting there like a sissy and the cheesy music playing while she's standing their hoping he shows up, and you know the F'er's gonna show up, and then Whoop, there he is, then they fall madly in love even though they know they're not meant to be together. Can we let it go and stop being so predictable in movies? For once cant the movie industry throw people a curve and have the guy stand her up and when she goes to walk across the street to go home crying and sobbing she gets hit by a bus? I HATE those kinds of love stories. I am not against love, cause love is good, but cheesy love is not. I think I'll stick with Jigsaw and watch him decapitate people for not "getting the picture" instead lol. And if you've ever watched the SAW movies than you know there is a story line behind it and a really good message. **** SAW 4 made me forgive my ex bf for all the ****ty things he did while we were together lol.

    I love sports. Especially hockey (Pittsburgh Penguins!!) and football (Here we go, Steelers, here we go!!); I have just gotten into baseball this year and no I am not a Pirates fan but a Cincinnati Reds fans....I live near Cincinnati!!! Sorry Pirates!

    I love Sci-Fi and action/adventure/ war movies. I can quote Star Wars movies and LOTR.

    I don't mind spiders and snakes and I would own a snake but then nobody would come visit me at all. Hmmmmm.....now maybe that isn't such a bad thing.

    My ideal date would be pizza and beer at a hockey game!!

    1) I despise shopping for clothes, shoes, and makeup.
    2) When my husband and I are in the car, I always drive.
    3) I have a *much* better sense of direction than my husband.
    4) I'm more competitive than most men.
    5) I drink whiskey.
    6) I enjoy math, programming, and other technical activities.
    7) I point out hot women to my husband.
    8) I am better educated than my husband, and I am the bread-winner. Even once he's done with school, I will probably always make more money than he does.
    9) I'd rather have a root canal than a manicure.

    i find professional sports boring, and i would rather watch anything else. if i could trade every single sports channel for HBO, i would do so without a second thought. i only watch the superbowl so that i can have an excuse to order pizza once a year, and i generally only make it about five minutes in. however, that five minutes of viewing and the beer that i drink with the two slices of pizza are apparently enough to prevent them from knocking on my door to revoke my guy card.

    5. I love getting super sweaty

    I, too, am not a shoe girl.
    I will watch football by myself on a Sunday and fight with Dad, who's not an Eagles fan, for the TV on Sundays lol
    I rarely wear makeup and prolly only spend $25 a YEAR on makeup!

    I'd rather lift weights than do cardio...
  • Posts: 2,555 Member
    I don't like jewelry - other than my wedding band, I don't wear it. Even my diamond engagement ring is in a box in my dresser.

    I don't like to shop.

    I'm not into shoes -- except for trail runners and hiking boots.

    Most of my female friends really like jewelry, shopping and shoes - I don't understand it. :laugh:
