Hes right though, men go for personality traits, women go for looks.

I disagree. If youve ever browsed on sites such as Hot or Not - youll see even the average-looking men will have marks of 7, 8 or even sometimes 9. Of two or three pictures I have ever put up on there, I have been a 1, a 3 and once a 6-ish (that required a bikini shot).

Yes I know men browsing on HotOrNot are generally not looking for a wife, but its indicative. Women will go for character - which might manifest itself in humour, the face, the mannerisms, the romance - whatever. Men will pften have a "list" for their ideal woman. The more ticks on that list the better - and will she have him? Yes? Sorted, shes the one!

If it was me and youd posted that proper job piccy itd have been an 8, but thats cus im happily taken and not in the look at the tats on that mindset..... bloke will always give higher numbers if theyre pictures they can get their rocks off to, but get a guy to seriously rate women and its very different....... examples can come if you need em!

Actually thats fairly close to the truth there lol

And ahhh crap.. im a cuddle-bitch.

OK, lets get down to the nitty-gritty:

Basically, men and women are all incredibly different - to the opposite sex, and to each other - and both sexes seems to have the wrong idea about the other side. Just the way it is, I suppose.

I do think the cat and dog thing still holds, mind you.

i agree, you can look after a man great, but like with a dog, dont throw the ball to much or we might take it for granted. (how many times have you seen a dog just leave the ball miles away for you to pick up :mrgreen: )

i think also part of the trouble is that in general its MUCH easier for a woman to find a sexual partner, because us men are dogs

p.s. were talking real relationships here, not short ones

whats short?

2 weeks is a LTR for me :shock:  :mrgreen:

Or you could be her outlaw biker.

mmm, I think most guys want a loyal wife they can look after and be proud to be with.... where as a girl is looking for someone to look after her..... and shell keep an open eye for anyone who could do a better job of it than her man

(it sounds oldfassioned... but i think it still applies)

just thought about this, and Ive decided maybe I just think that because thats what I want to think ?

the last serious g/f I had ran off with some other guy because he had "pretty hair" (bitch)

Ive always seen my position in a relationship as provider/protector, so maybe Im assuming this is what girls are looking for ?

Im afraid Im such a tomboy that I have difficulty listening to other peoples problems myself without trying to offer solutions! Theres a reason why my best mates tend to be male or equally tomboyish

It is true though, when we spill our guts, we dont want to be offered solutions, because we know what they are really. We just want some reassurance, someone to tell us well get through, itll go right eventually, Im here for you.
