Is it just me? ( Archived) (15)

May 15, 2010 12:16 AM CST Is it just me?
Or does anyone else find that with womens profiles they are much more specific about what they want in a partner, (i.e Must be a certain height, must like children and or animals, must smell nice and not be a couch potato etc....)

Its not bad thing at all to put these things in a profile, i just found it interesting that women tend be more specific about these things than men are.

Also, for those of you women who go on dates through this or any other site, how rigid are you in accordance to your wish list in terms of a potential partner?
Would you pull the plug on a potential partner because he misses one of your specifications? or would you let it slide?

Comments please?

i think women are by definition pickier, more concrete or shallow in what they're looking for than men otherwise all the women that are simply looking for a "nice guy" would have found them by now. laugh grin cheers dunno

i'd be willing to bet there is flexability and varibles, the same way we look at girls.

the good thing,
is if there isn't some flex, she has already checked me off her list, and i don't have to run away. grin

To what point are you flexible? do you have a cut off point? for example, he has half the qualities you are looking for but not the other half? would this be a showstopper for you?

applause they are guidlines to what we would like to have, but as I say in my profile NOT cast in stone...of course we dont expect men to have ALL these things, but one or two would be nice....smitten

Its all about meeting face to face and spending time together and seeing what transpires....love may bloom where we least expect it toheart wings

Yes you are absolutely righ and the older we get the "absolutum" of all terms get a little softer. The being to gethere close for a while. That is the real test.

Then it becomes a question of love. Lust, decire and want ? Are we prone to mix these emotions into the search of love. Perhaps lesser with age I think.

It amazes me how picky some women can be. Some of these ladies think too well of themselves and should be glad if a guy with only a pulse looks their way.

Then there are a tiny few who are plain, but so sweet as to make a man pine with instant palpitations of amore.heart beating

men have their wish list too. i like to say what i want so i don't waste anyones time. i see no reason for anyone to be offended. if everyone had a good idea of what they want and what they don't want life would be less complicatedsigh peace
