cherrybrandy: whats so ridiculous Wall?



Well for one,you never BECOME one,you'll always be two seperate people in a relationship,and just the whole paragraph sounds a little too kissass-ish to me.


Sounds like something out of one of those romance novel 'fabio' books..


I mean...come on.

What about intimacy and getting to know your partner on an intimate level..I think it's a bit more realistic than a woman falling and moaning into a mans arms in a last gasp..

Lets get REAL HERE a bit.

its a womens job just to be there and give them all the love that you can.not many men these days are the breadwinners unfortunately.finances dictate both partners have to work.

Unfortunately it's not the case anymore.I think some men are scared to do these things anymore.I've wittnessed where some women have coped an attitude when men have opened a door,pulled out a chair for a lady, and not to many men are bread winners much anymore.At least not the sole bread winner anyhow.

I don't think it's a man or womans job to do anything inparticular. I say let love take over and see where you end up.

I know from some women responses,like for example " not very often men open the door for me",therefor you must be a lucky woman,to have met gentlemen towards you.-wave

In other words you are saying the OP had to name it "manners" instead of ""job"".

I'm not so sure about that. Its nice, but because roles have changed so much now, it cant be presumed anymore that every woman likes the door to held opened for her , etc. Its like the same discussion about "should a man pay for the first date" , its not black and white anymore. This can be confusing.
But it all boils down to individual people treating each other nice, rather than adhering to certain roles.
