La donna é mobile Qual piuma al vento, Muto d’accento - e di pensiero. Sempre un'amabile Leggiadro viso, In pianto o in riso - e menzogner. Esempre misero Chi a lei s’affida, Chi le confida - mal cauto il cor! Pur mai non sentesi Felice appieno Chi su quel seno - Non liba amor!
Dang it, droxford. That's my wife too... the image thing... From MEN, they want as follows: Single Women: Don't be possessive. Buy them things. Don't think you're the only male they talk to. Don't ask to whom they're talking on the phone. Don't ask when they're going to come back from the mall. Married Women: Take out the trash. Mow the lawn. Don't leave the dirty clothes on the floor. Wash the dishes at least once in our married life. Care for the kids. Pay attention during arguments. Go with [them] to their mom's house. Provide shelter (pay the bills). Shower often.
Q:What do women want? A: (Note: the following are my opinions and are a generalization of the entire female gender on planet Earth.) At the core, women want securty and protection. This is instinctive to them. This bleeds over into all aspects of life and frequently is manifested as deep-rooted fear. examples: Women are attracted to the alpha-male. She feels that he is the best at providing protection and security for her. Some women find this in a man who has physical prowess (muscles, height, etc.). Some women find this in a man who has financial security. The man who has neither financial security nor muscles usually has fewer women attracted to him. This is also why women find confidence so attractive in men. Women interpret this as a sign that a man has all the answers and is therefore secure in himself. Ergo, she can be secure with him. Women are frequenly more nervous or anxious than men. Why? Because they have a core fear that actions will bring instabilty and insecurity to them (possibly on a permanent basis). Women will obsess with this until they feel their anxieties are put to rest and they will not be subjected to long-term negativity. Women remember everything - especially if it's negative. This is because they are afraid that it may happen again, bringing instability and insecurity into their lives. If they remember it, they can learn from it to prevent further negativity. It's a defense mechanism. So, if you reverse this, a pattern is quite clear. what if you were a guy who demonstrated an exceptionally strong ability to provide protection (both physical and monetary)? What if you were a large, physically strong guy with lots of big muscles? You were a confident and cocky guy and on top of that, you had a nice, paid-off home, you had money in the bank, a strong, stable job, an affluent car... IF you had all those things, would you have a hard time attracting women? No.
Mine too. If it comes from another source - ooooo. But from your own husband - yea right. But I still think that the occational commit is wanted/needed even though they state otherwise - as long as they aren't meant as foreplay.
she probably feels you're just being biased. alot of times, people care more what strangers have to say than those close to them. i know this is totally contradictory to what rubytuesday and Elle have said, but then again, we're talking about women. They're emotionally driven creatures. Throwing logic into the equation only results in an undefined function.
OK, well, fine, maybe some women want shopping and shoes. Maybe some women think confidence is essential. Maybe some women want alpha males above all... BUT I DON'T. I can just speak for me, and I probably ought to turn in my woman card... I'm just different, and you guys probably don't want us to be that different. But I don't want people generalizing that those things apply to me, because they don't. Really. (I'm the type who would go after the nice guys... or at least be available for them in a psychological sense... and then have them not care anyway, because who wants what they can actually get?) And I won't generalize about what other women want either. I don't understand them either.
Yeah, I was generalizing the entire female gender. There are certainly many women who don't fit into the mold that I described (and honestly, that's a good thing!)
"Irrational and emotionally fragile by nature, female coworkers are a peculiar animal. They are very insecure about their appearance. Be sure to tell them how good they look every day - even if they're homely and unkempt. And remember, nothing says "Good job." like a firm, open-palm smack on the behind."
All we can do is understand ourselves, male or female I don't care, just understand yourself. Someone mentioned earlier that if you have your sh*t together and work on yourself then you're more likely to attract someone along the lines of what you may want or a re looking for. Life is wayyyy to short to generalize about what people want or worry about what makes you so different or unique from other women, who cares! Be happy with yourself. And who cares if some women want, like, love shopping and shoes and all kinds of girly stuff, what works for one of will not work for another. Me I LOVE shoes and purses, they are my crack BUT I hate shopping, go figure!
I think women want a connection. They want that attraction, that spark, that indefinable thing that can hit you like an electric shock, from just looking at someone. That's what I wanted, and I'm a guy. My wife and I connected like that. She had moved in front of my garage apartment, and was bringing in groceries with her roommates. I was sitting under a bush, with my pet owl on my shoulder, digging up worms for him. I called out, "Hi!" She looked around and spotted me under the bush, grinned and said, "Hi!" ...right back at me. That's all it took.
Wow, Deckard you're dreamy! No but seriously, that is very awesome! I know I felt the same way when I met my husband and I still do after all these years.
LOL! It's true. I'm a computer geek. I'm the manager of an internal software development department for one of the largest law firms in Houston.
