You want the truth? We are actually a complex society of beings born from a small planet in the western section of Andromeda. Unfortunately, it's really boring there 'cause everyone's always right. So we picked a small, totally insignifacant planet to inhabit. Since men are almost always wrong and were always starting arguments (it's the sad truth...YES, it's true...WE were the ones who collected research for two thousand years prior to our arrival, not you!), we decided that this would be the perfect place. We stayed. Thus, the women weren't bored anymore.

And our main mission in life is to make sure you guys don't become as perfect as the immortal woman. {scattered applause} Thank you.

Well , like it's not that hard ,

like females just want a guy that is there for them when they need someone the most,
Someone that is there to listen to them.
someone that is true , faithful and romantic with a bit of a bad boy in them.

Like writing sweet poems or bringing flowers would help alot.
Looks wise really don't matter, But it would help alot if your cute and good looking.
attraction helps but if your like super super ugly then we have a problem
but otherwise if you are funny and have a sweet and caring nature with a great personality then your fine.
sometimes a person's inside and personality can shine through and make them the most beautiful person.

The key here is like to show affection and devotion
and be nice when we go shopping especially holding our shopping bags

I don't know what I'll go for, like Double D's way for dating a woman, charm and witty conversations, Eddy's way of impress a lady, cold hard cash, or Ed's way of impress a woman, buttered toast.


Maybe I'll go with.......

Ehhh. . .well, I guess we've all got our own opinions. I'd like a guy who can take care of himself and will trust me to do the same, somebody who knows what he wants and respects what I want at the same time. I think most girls just want to be appreciated once in a while, whether that means sappy romancy stuff or just a phone call after a bad day. There's no one way to act to impress every girl. If somebody read me poetry, I'd probably fall asleep.

:D

You know what! sweet talking to girls actually works! :p there's this girl who I said things like she was amazing and special and all that crap, :D lol and it worked she went out with me.
After we had sex and it wasn't that good I dumped her :D
:eek: Then there was this big argument and she hated my guts.
it's a good thing it's long past history! :D

Ah-ah....we said we'd KEEP you from doing that! :p


But seriously...I'd like a guy who's like a friend to me. I'd like to know that I can trust him, and that if he does do something wrong, he'd tell me the truth. Even if he would admit to kissing another girl...maybe I wouldn't still be a girlfriend with him, but if he told me the truth, I would still love him....kinda confusing, but my guy would understand. :D


Of course, I don't have a boyfriend, and the only one I'll ever have has to be my husband, or I'm in big trouble... ;)

In order, that's income, endowment, and height, Danielle.

As to the first, I'll be making the six figures, thank you very much.

As to the third, as long as the guy ain't six feet WIDE I'll be okay.

As to the second, well. . . ;)

You know, Danielle, it's not that women are always right and that men are always wrong, it's just that after a while a man just wants the woman to shut up...so he'll surrender in exchange for peace and quiet.

:D

In my experience women are your best friend and your worst adversary. They are affectionate and malicious, kind and cruel, thoughtful and callious. They know your weaknesses and how to exploit them. They'll be both a shoulder to cry on and a claw to tear into your insides. In the end, you'll both treasure your time together and rue the day you asked her out.

Such is women. But, as men, we can inflict the same amount of damage. Therein lies the tragedy.

:rolleyes:

I'm sorry...did I go off on a tangent? Seriously, I love women, but I wouldn't take my eye off one for a second (that's a double pun, of course).

Where I come from, all women I have met at school is interesting in sex, ghetto, and get their booty on (rap/thug talk *ugh). I like a woman with class and I could treat her right, by go see a chick flick, take her to a ballet, or maybe.....TO SEE A MOVIE WITH A LOTS OF EXPLOSIONS!! Just kidding on that last one. :)

Wow man. Did you ever think that maybe you're just dating the wrong type of women? Maybe time for some self-evaluation? ;)

Honestly, I've been through several relationships in my life, and I've never had these kinds of experiences. And I am currently in a relationship that has lasted almost 8 years now, and again, I just don't see women that way at all.

The problem is, they don't know what they want but they pretend that they do. Then they force us to gallop off on a quest that has no end.

But the same thing is true of men. I don't think any human being, male or female, knows what they really want.

Nightflower
11-27-2001, 04:30 PM
Captain Caps, don't say things like that! I think you're awesome. Have faith in yourself. *breaks into song* I've got faaaaith in the heart-

*shoe flies at Nightflower's head*

All right, I'm getting to the point.

Kero, I would like to point out the majority of the board users who frequent here are guys, therefore it is safe to surmise that the majority of posts on this thread for women would be by guys. Me, I was just busy.

Maxie Zeus has got a point, I'll give him that. Smart dude, he is.

But you really got to remember that the "women" group is not a singular entity out to tear out your heart and feed it to its lapdog, armed with devious complex mind games and 9-inch stilleto heels. Women consist of *many different people*, that have different goals and interests and things that they're looking for ;)

Yeah, I'll admit that there are some girls who do analyze to death what guys say. That they like playing games with guys, and paradoxically, dress and wear make-up in a certain way to attract the attention of guys, or more specifically, buff guys. There are a lot of girls like this, and I don't like them any more than you do. But as I admit this, I think it's fair that I must also say that there are a lot of guys who care too much about what a girl looks like rather than their personality, and that they. really. want. sex. a lot!

Anyway, to the point. So I can't really say what women want, since I'm not a woman (not legally for another three months or so), I'm not plural, and I'm sure as hell too weird and immature to be taken seriously. But I think I can speak for girls who are like me, and those are the plain-looking ones who spend way too much time on the internet.

I like guys with a sense of humor. Raunchy, intelligent, it doesn't matter, as long as they can make me laugh. I really like a guy if he's witty and we can get into a quick dialogue. I also like a guy if I can have a long conversation with him over some subject that I'm interested in.

I don't know much about appearances. I know some girls who fall in love with pretty faces first, but if I think the guy has a nice personality, he becomes good-looking to me afterwards, do you know what I mean? If the guy is cute, that's a thrown in bonus, but admittedly, my last boyfriend wasn't that good-looking by standard terms (I think he's all right), and my clubbing friends would say that my current boyfriend is by no means "hot" (But I think he's still sexy ^_^).

To be completely honest, guys who are really buff and hot scare me, because they just look like they have the potential to be real *****holes. This is just my problem though, it's a negative stereotype. I'd rather go out with a scrawny guy, but my boyfriend is pretty nicely built :) (He's part of the reserves)

I think a lot of girls like guys to be good listeners, but lately I have trouble carrying conversations, so I'm not much of a talker. I like a little romance (I think my boyfriend is really sweet), but I'm smart enough to know that flowers and candies are really just fluff. Sadly, I have to admit I'm really naive, and I like hearing sweet talk. My bad.

I think confidence is really important, which I know is unfortunate for some people :P The thing is, when you're shy, you're liable to get passed over in a crowd. I wouldn't mind going out with a confident guy, because I sure as hell don't know what I'm doing.

Oh, and I hate chick flicks and ballet with a big ranty passion. :P

I'll watch cartoons till I die. I'm a poster at this board, aren't I? ;)

So those are my 2 cents.

Then again, what the hell do I know?

Kal-el
11-27-2001, 04:42 PM
Nightflower, it sounds like you know quite a bit. It also sounds like you have a good idea of what/who you want and what/who you are. Definitely a good thing.

Good point. I don't think I know any chicks who actually like Chick Flicks. hehe. Occasionally some of my female friends will watch a sappy movie, but the rest of the time it's action, comedy...stuff like that.

My girlfriend, for example, loves Horror movies. While she says she likes them for the "cuddle factor", I just know she loves seeing people get stabbed, & dead people jumping out of closets...
hmm...maybe that's not a good thing? :eek: :D ;) :cool:

Watch your girlfriend VERY carefully.... ;)


Actually, I'm very much like that. Sappy "chick flicks" are too boring for me. Comedy flicks are okay, but a lot of the humor goes way over my head (like the figures and endowment and height....if it has to do with boyfriend/girlfriend, don't bother explaining). I like the Horror factor in a movie, but the main reason why is because I STUDY them. I'm not kidding; I see how the murderer/axe-wielding person positions himself, how he hides himself, how he moves in for the kill. I study the reaction and how long it took for that reaction to come. Would he have reacted faster if the axe or whatever went in deeper? THAT'S what kind of stuff I look for in a movie.


Oh, come on.....with me, what did you expect? I just wrote a 9-page suspense/horror story for school. My teacher read it, was silent for a minute of two, then looked up and said to me, "Danielle....you have a very twisted mind." See? The stuff in the movie DOES come in handy! :D


Meanwhile, some people thught that my second response wasn't serious. (SECOND, not first).Guess what, folks. I was serious.

I don't know what women want. I don't think all of them have finished making their Christmas lists yet. ;)

(weak rimshot noise)

But seriously, folks... I can't speak for all women, but what I want is a job I can be happy with, friends I can talk to, and the occasional block of time that I can just waste on the computer, the drawing board, the PlayStation, or the TV. And yes, I won't lie, a significant other would be nice too.

What kind of person would he be, you ask? Might as well be honest here too: I don't know. Sure, I've got a few things on my wish list - a sense of humor and confidence in himself are way up on that list, after dating a couple of guys who didn't have either. Also I've got to be able to trust him. If there's no trust in a relationship, I see little reason to continue it. An even temper would also be great - that way if we ever disagreed on anything, we could actually try to resolve that difference instead of just screaming at each other.

And that's the end of my little piece o'drivel. Make that 2 or 3 serious replies to the topic. :p

I for one dislike chick flicks....give me an action movie any ol' day.

So far all I want is an intelligent guy, one who likes some of the stuff I do, can cook :D, and can put up with a weirdo....and her weirdo friends...that of course coming from not that deep of thought.

WTH? Have you ever read anything written by Optimal? He definitely doesn't treat women like sex objects. Hell, he even says he wants to wait till marriage for sex.

Sorry to sound harsh, but take a little time before you start flinging around feminist cliches. It makes the rest of us look bad.

I sense bitterness here. I think what it bottles down to, sorry if this has been said about a hundred times, is that women want someone kind, funny, and share their interests. It's incredibly cliche, but its true.

Ok, maybe I should start a new thread, but I figure'd itd fit well under here. This is a question for the girls in here, but what would y'all think about some guy who you didnt know, randomly striking up small-talk with you. I'm not talking about pick-up lines, but more like a short, get to know you bit, while waiting for an elevator or something. Is that perceived as weird, confident, etc?

I wouldn't think any more of it than if it were a girl striking up a random conversation. I guess I wouldn't really care- makes an elevator ride less boring :)

Batgirl_2005
11-28-2001, 03:09 PM
Well, personally, I think it shows confidence, and I like that in a guy. If a guy did that to me, it might be a bit awkward at first, but it'd be cool.

looks - I don't really mind if the guy is not the hottest guy ever, as long as he's nice. I would go out with the most uncute (ummmm... i KNOW that's not a word... gimme a break...) guy in school, if he's nice. It doesn't hurt if he is pretty strong (Well stronger than I am)

personality - He has to be kind, thoughtful, confident, and maybe a little protective. But most of all he has to be nice.

common (why doesn't it look like that is spelled right...?) interests - OK... I want a guy who I can talk to about things. I don't mind if he has different opinions on things (such as who would win a fight between bats and flyboy... (it's batman just so you know...)) since it sparks some interesting conversations. But he has to at least enjoy some of the things I love. (Comic books, ballet, singing, acting, dancing in general (yes this includes break dancing) and reading... and anime...) But I have yet to find a guy who like even one of the things on my list (besides my drama friends, but they scare me).

obviously I think common interests are the most important thing along with personality. I really don't care how he looks.

heh... is that enough odd info?

Sorry to sound harsh, but take a little time before you start flinging around feminist cliches. It makes the rest of us look bad.

Thanks for the assist, Nightflower! The whole point of my last post was to point out that i did not view women as sex objects. I was saying that i seemed to fit most of the criteria of what women wanted. And that, although i can understand the opinion of my fellow men on Pam Anderson, i have little interest in watching her jugs bounce around.

I'm very clueless when it comes to this stuff, simply because I don't think about it much and dwell on it. If I see my friends or sisters acting funny, I can tell they're acting funny, but if the reason is over a guy, I wouldn't have figured that one out and it's so simple too. I've also told people if I ever go on a date, I probably won't even know I was on a date to begin with. :p

It's not that I never think about it though, and when I do it does seem nice to have a special someone. The very first thing I want from a guy is for him to be a friend. I would also want him to treat me like a person, not a girl, not a guy, but a person. I have to be able to trust him and there has to be an attraction too, which is personality for me. Looks don't matter, I'm really attracted to personality. He has to be someone I have some interests in common with and be able to hang out together and have fun together. Snuggling is cool, it's very reassuring and comforting, which I want sometimes when I'm feeling lonely or depressed.

To answer Failure's question, I don't mind strangers talking to me. It does happen occasionally, and they aren't pick up lines either. Like Nightflower, I would react the same way if a girl was talking to me. It's just talk, and depending on what they say I think they're either weird, insightful, stupid, or funny. Despite what I think they said, I get a fuzzy feeling by them speaking up, because they're all being friendly and I admire that people who can just talk to others whether they're comfortable with it or not and just being nice and friendly. Makes the world feel like a nicer place. :)

Ok I'm just curious but you say you want him to treat you like a person not a girl but then you say snuggling is cool but I don't think very many guys would snuggle another guy too often (unless that is their sexual preference) so snuggling would mean they are treating you as the opposite sex thus isn't these 2 in conflict with each other?

Boy, this is going to be hard to explain. Yeah, I see what you're saying. I guess when I say girl, I mean all the stereotypes with it, like I'm the weaker sex and fragile. The snuggling is about affection. If anything, I would think it means they care about me and think of me as a special person. I guess it's a type of comfort that girls can express and ask for, from guys and from girls. There have been times when I felt bad and I went to my girl friends for comfort and they'll put their arm around me, give me a hug. When they need somebody I'd do the same, even hold their hands.

Now I don't speak for all guys but it was just the treat you like a person part was confusing since if a guy is intrested in you he will treat you diffently. That is not to say he will treat you in a stereotype way but diffent then he would a normal freind.

Well, women are not so complicated...well especially this lady :D
All a woman is looking for is for a man to treat her with respect, be a friend, understand her as an individual, be loving , caring, comforting at bad times and sensitive when the situation recals to be. She must also feel secure around him and comfortable. If I had someone like that I would treat him just the same. :) Maybe even better :o

ok I know some women are complicated and complex. It depends also of her maturity level. But guys are also as confusing as women. YES you are guys. most of you anyways ;)

Even if I did understand women, my biggest problem is still being shy about asking a women out. How do I stop being shy?

Ok, maybe I should start a new thread, but I figure'd itd fit well under here. This is a question for the girls in here, but what would y'all think about some guy who you didnt know, randomly striking up small-talk with you. I'm not talking about pick-up lines, but more like a short, get to know you bit, while waiting for an elevator or something. Is that perceived as weird, confident, etc?

To tell you the truth I love when a guy asks me out. I think it shows a lot of confidents. Of course I talk to everybody. See, I was raised being told that you have to wait for the guy to make the first move because it's not the women's place. Needless to say that I never real waited (much to my mother's dismay). I asked the guy I took to my senior prom. Anyway what women want cannot be answered in a small paragraph or a long paper. Every woman is different.
Take me for example. I love a man that likes RPG's, comic books, loud music, good books, and my sick love affair for Batman. Other then that I like to do things that get along with the other person. That's relationships are all about getting to expand you horizons and meet new people and do interesting things. One time I started to date an adult Boy Scout and because of his interested became a HAM radio operator. That's crazy I never in a million years would have actively gone out to obtain that knowledge, but I was dating him and that's what he liked. So its not a manner of what women want --it's a manner of is she going to mesh well with your personality. There is a woman for everyone you just have to find her. In closing I would like to say if you feel that the women in your area are not your cup of tea--move. Because the best thing I ever did to find a man was go to another area in my state.

I hope this shed some light. Sorry I couldn't post earlier my computer is very ill.
