Love that lol That is great and thanks for sharing!

Although I do not believe in perfection. No one is perfect no matter what you think. Everyone has faults and has done mistakes one way or another and I think that with faults and those mistakes it is a way for us to learn from them and it teaches us experience for the next round coming our way whatever it may be.

I have no intentions and expectations of someone but I won't settle for less either!

Actually, that isn't asking a whole lot.

Who doesn't want those things out of a partner?

actually this thread isn't about love...you turned it around. This thread was about being perfect. I still say it try for perfection is to set yourself up to fail. Strive to be the best you can be...and if you attain that, you are successful. Perfect or not


Well i have read threw everyones opinion and ship i have to say i agree with you.... my late mother used to say " you can ask no more of someone than to do their best" and to strive for perfection is setting yourself up 4 a fall.... to strive to be the best you can be and achieve it.. is perfect.... to you... to set out to do something to the best of your ability and actually succeed at it... u can ask for no more perfection than that... well i wouldnt anyway.........

If you look deeper into that post, what do we see the woman saying?

And what, pray tell, is SHE willing to offer HIM?

laugh laugh Seriously though I find that all really artificial. Gawd knows the day I become perfect myself I'll look for perfection in a partner then. That day won't come though no-one is perfect and I really wouldn't want it that way. Sometimes its the differences that can be a funny positive thing also.wave

Good Lord!!!!!.....We agree on something!!!!!!!!!


oh more than you think, but, as I love to debate, (because it brings out views of both sides and thats healthy me thinks) it only 'looks like we have opposing views .. giggle


you said something in a thread a few days ago, maybe this one confused about physical contact being a need (while others argued its a 'want'). I wanted (but not needed laugh) to post and cheer then too.


Becuase there are two very basic communication needs in humans. Verbal and Physical. While women 'tend' to be more verbal and men tend to be more physical, its not an absolute. I laugh when women say ... "all men want is sex", or when men say, "all she ever wants to do is talk". And they repeat this stupid mantra with bitterness in their heart! Its been going on since mankind began and yet very few have used this power for good grasshopper. Its how we feel loved! Complaining about it is counter-productive.

This is perhaps the most valueable information in relationships, yet people treat it like its some curse. Use it for good, as you would, knowing that your partner needs a simple phone call, or anything else to feel ackowledged and loved.

but be on the watch I may choose the opposing view (on any subject) just to see what thats like too... cheers

She said, " I am looking for someone who is striving for perfection mentally because I need conversation and mental stimulation. I don't need a simple-minded man." I am looking for someone who is striving for perfection spiritually because I don't need to be unequally yoked...
believers mixed with unbelievers is a recipe for disaster. I need a man who is striving for perfection financially because I don't need a financial
burden. I am looking for someone who is sensitive enough to understand what I go through as a woman , but strong enough to keep me grounded. I am looking for someone who I can respect. In order to be submissive, I must respect him. I cannot be submissive to a man who isn't taking care of his business. I have no problem being submissive...he just has to be worthy. God made woman to be a helpmate for man. I can't help a man if he can't help himself.


OMG, I can't believe I'm saying this, but I agree with ship! (Not the first time, but the first time I've admitted it.grin )

I don't want perfection in a man, or even striving for perfection, cause that person would never be satisfied with himself or me. Would drive me insane.

I ain't being submissive to any man, I don't care how perfect he is! And I'm grounded quite well enough thank you very much! I just might need someone to help me fly! heart wings

No one twist your arms!! You buy make-up...that men make...BUT you buy it, v creating a basis for more manufacture. Supply and demand. I still say that women have a higher ego problem than men.

I for one, try and buy make-up made by women as they make a better product.

Do I look fat in this?? You won't hear a man say that

I have never asked this, I have asked my late husband and more recently my ex-fiance if I looked ok or if they were comfortable with my outfit, but most of the time, I did not have to as we always complimented each other.

I have to go and powder my nose...you won't hear men say the are going to primp.

I have also never said this. What I have said is,"Excuse me, I will be right back." Invariably, it led to being grilled ie. "Why?", 'Where are you going?" "What are you doing?" Then I said "I'm going to the ladies room" I always expected that is where you guys were goin when you said "Excuse me, I'll be right back"




I believe that for the most part women are more vain than men...metro-sexuals excluded

????? I have no clue as to what a metro-sexual is??????

Also, I have been out with guys that constant ly look into a reflective surface and comb or brush their hair.[/color]

Women want to be complimented and stroked. As a whole!

And Men Don't?????? Could've fooled me!

Other peoples opinion matter more to them than most men. They even strive for the approval of other women.

This is probably the only part I can agree with here. However, remember, most of us were taught to put others' opinions first.


Men, I think, are not as vain as women are.

Whoa! Down Boy! read the above in Chocolate

Hence this fits into a "perfection" thread. Women frequently see themselves as perfect which is why many say "I am worth it"

I think many of us say we are worth it b/c we have been abandonded after helping our mate finish his schooling, (while ours was put on hold), stood by him as he was deathly ill, only to have him cheat or replace us with a younger girl when he got his health back.

At least, that is why I tell myself, I am worth it in some areas of life.

Just my opinion, of course

It seems pretty easy to fall back on "we were schooled". You are a big girl...do what you feel is right. Not what you were 'schooled'. I was schooled to hate blacks...and catholics..and Puerto Ricans, but made a conscience decision that what I was taught was wrong. I made choices for myself. If you let the opinions of others control your life....that is your conscience decision. NO again NO. I do not want to be complimented nor stroked, by any one. I go out of my way to avoid compliments.

You have taken my post w-a-y to personal. Your reply keeps alluding to yourself, my post was about women in general. I I think I said...in general or most!!

Enjoy the rest of your day!cheers
