We had such a great response from our last dating segment, I thought we’d do it again. So back to the phones we go. “Ladies, what’s are looking for in a man?” And for the record, if it is Loyal and faithful, you best stick with a pet!!!
And then there is the whole, “What are men looking for in a woman?” If you answer someone to care and look after you, you need to move back in with your mommy!! (Or in some cases just stay with your mommy.) Ladies, am I right or not?
After reading Venus and Mars, Venus and Mars in the Bedroom, and Venus and Mars Dating I have come to the conclusion we will never truly understand the opposite sex. (Men want sex, most women want the opposite, but I digress.)
Men do not listen, period. We roll our eyes, yawn and keep watching the football game. The only signals we get are when women want sex. We somehow miss the signals of she wants to just talk, just be held, or just be listened too. (there’s that men do not listen thing again).
Here’s the deal. It is acceptable to ask someone out on a date via messenger or text but to break up with one, DO IT IN PERSON! (Unless of course, they are mentally unstable)
We have lost the human touch. Guys, stop acting like you are God’s gift to women. Women, for God’s sake act like women! True gentlemen want true Ladies. Don’t sell yourself cheap. And if he won’t open your door, pull your chair out and help you with your coat—DITCH HIM. Don’t’ think you can change him after your married.....
So folks what say you?

I always wondered about the older men who wanted a woman to be able to travel with them, but then only looked for women who needed to work to survive. It seemed like the men of all ages were looking for women 10-20 years younger than them. Except for the teenage boys who wanted an older woman. I did tell one young boy that I would be delighted to go on a date with him, but only if we could double date with his parents.

BaaHaa...that is too funny, wrong in so many ways but still too funny! Rule number 1, all men are liars, rule number two, refer to rule number one! We will tell you what we think you want to hear just to get a date or sex. It's who we are and we make no apologies.

I tell this story too much. But once more. Years ago on Northern Exposure, at the bar in the Brick, discussion by men or what women want - youngish nativeish guy said - "Same things as men but in prettier colors."
I tend to believe we all want the same things - security, communication, care, money, food, kind touch, orgasms, occasional privacy, walks in the rain, puppy dogs, roses, hot chocolate with whipped cream - well maybe not all of us want that, not all the time anyway.
