Puppy -

Found some of that confidence over the past few weeks. It's amazing the affect it has on others.

WANT don't NEED. Yup.

Confident

Professional

Educated

has a career

has good tires on her car

has a savings account (with money in it)

Versed in current events

Has her OWN opinion of things...even if they are 180 to mine

(with Puppy on this one) WANTS to be with me, not NEEDING to be with me

can manage her own affairs successfully

can go out in public without make-up

is just as content in staying home for movie and pizza night as she is in going out for $200 dinners and concerts.

Understands that there are down times in relationships and can co-exist through them.

Nice backside, eyes...(the Shallow Hal part of me!!) laugh

I think the important thing to remember is that many of us are dealing with individuals that may be attracted to what we can offer; but they are NOT attracted to us. Their warped realities prevent them from seeing us and the history between you and your spouse can also prevent them from seeing our good qualities.

Remember too, that ... beauty is in the eye of the beholder!!

Gee, MarriedCrazy! We should be married! LoL

(Workin' on the backside, though... LoL RUNNING!)

And, I get flat tires a lot, so they're always new! (Couldn't be my driving!)

Sorry, I just had a funny thought when I read your list...

""""beauty is in the eye of the beholder!!""""

I have a male best friend that says, "Beauty is in the eye of the Beer Holder!"

Just a little funny.






Seriously, guys, this is all very interesting. Thanks for taking the time!

seriously

wanting to be with me, not filling a need.

soft touches of reassuance for no reason.

knowing what she wants, no sitting on the fence.

a lady (manners of a lady no burping or farting...lol)

happy with what each day can be - not dwelling on what yesterday wasn't.

make the first move for romance once in a while (set the mood with dinner or candles or something)

love a smile (or as puppy said "teeth" - yes she needs to have teeth too i guess)

a woman who isn't afraid to accept compliments - self confident.

nice butt helps but not necessary....:P

omg, this thread is somewhat bogus already.

I have observed, ad nauseam, that men love to rescues damsels in distress. So much for "confident" women.

I think it was Candice Bergen who said that men say they want a confident, independent woman, but then they tear her down, brick by brick.

Oh, and men love long hair, no matter how sh!tty it looks.

Ok, let the name-calling begin...."bitter"....etc.

Hey..I resemble that remark...I'm trying to put it past me tho..the source of ALL my troubles..

let me see..all of my ex GF's (except one, I lost her...didn't know how to relate, she didn't need rescuing)...oh and my STBX needed rescuing.

So, probably most of the men on here are "rescuers." I know I'm guilty of that.

And in response to Candice Bergen - Woman want a man who is rock solid, but want to be able to control his every move.

so statements like that are bullocks.

no name calling from me - i don't see bogus crap, just people who are in different situations expressing what THEY would like.

there are sterotypes for both sexes, but they are just that sterotypes....not all inclusive.

and yes...even messy long hair is pretty attractive.
