Good night Jlw. I need to go to sleep as well.

Well I like to just break it down to two things like I say on my profile.
This goes both ways for both guys and girls

1. The person you're with, do you feel like you can be your true self anytime all the time and it's okay to make mistakes and they still adore you?

2. Do you feel like you are truely loved? Are you happy?

It all comes down to UNconditional love. Easy to say, yet hard to do for most I guess.

All I know is that I do not ask for anything more or less then what I am willing to give in return.

I loved someone like that once, I loved everything about her, and for a while everything was wonderful, honestly I will never understand why she ended the relationship, I guess it just wasn't meant to be, it's said that when one door closes another one opens.. however that other door may be years down the road...

haha yeah ^

One way to look at it I suppose is a couple ways. Anything worth while is worth waiting for right? Second, if you had this great of a relationship, even if it was for a brief spell, with someone that wasn't really "the one" for you, imagine how it will be when you finally do meet the one who is!

This lady is not only pretty, shes sincere and straight forward.

Well written profile btw and so true.

Thank you! I am only myself. That is all I can be and give to someone and I expect to get the same in return. I do not want any false presentations for they will slip away naturally on their own within time. No, I need something real. I will not settle for less and neither should anyone else.

Wise words... impressive I might add.. I'm sure it will be the most wonderful feeling for both of us, I at least know what she would get from me.. She would get a man that's hard working, dedicated, loyal, a one woman man, someone that will love her with all his strength, and would lay down his life if need be just so she could live another day..

Is that to much to give someone? Do women really want a man like that? I don't know..

Who knows man? Really, women have changed from the way things use to be. I think us guys are mixed up in what women want nowadays.

Let's get married then.

Well that's because what women want is an individual thing...just like what men want....it can't be lumped into one category...the key is to find someone where there is a mutual attraction who wants the same things I guess....

You need to go to the perfect thread.

I am not good....

<---he's BAD!!!

I can't tell you what all women want, we're all different. I think men and women get real confused about that, trying to figure out the opposite sex, when really all you should do is try to understand the individual.

What I want is a man who lets me be me, does not question or criticize what I am, who I am comfortable and happy with. I don't need or want someone to kiss my ass, tell me I'm beautiful all the time, run around trying to anticipate my every need, lay down their life for me. I do want someone who will share their life and their time with me, and above all make me laugh.

I don't want to be taken care of, I'm doing a dam fine better job of taking care of myself than any man ever did. I would want us to take care of each other, if it gets that far. But I will not take on the whole load, nor would I expect the man to. I will not be obligated to someone just because they pay the bills or whatever.

Sure things have changed, thank gawd! We don't have to stay in miserable relationships anymore just because it's next to impossible for a woman or a man to survive alone. We have choices now that the generations before us didn't have. And that does make it a little scary, but it's got to be better than not having the option of being happy.

Good Man ????

hmm nope not the usual always loving , caring , honest , truthful , well mannered and with a good temperment.

I believe , In a long term relation or even in a relation where the emotions are pretty strong .. one is BOUND to folly in one way or another. So expecting absolute sincerity in all ways always is not practical.

A good man in my view doesnt have malicious intent or actions , knows that when u get involved with someone at any level .. you both share the responsibility to not hurt the other and behave as responsibly as possible and would let you be yourself and be himself as well.

The rest ... it differs from person to person. Plus once you are in love ... a lot of definitions change.

Wow, how true! You're pretty smart you know that?

ermmm i realise people get fickle when emotional
