I was reading a few of my books to get some ideas on some blogs to write. I was skimming through my book HE'S JUST NOT THAT INTO YOU and it had a chapter about Standards.
I believe that women's standards have most of these fools acting the way they do. Some women will accept just about anything. Some will play second fiddle..some with even live with a man and another woman. It's sad..
Anywho the book posted some "standard suggestions" more like affirmations. I'm going to forward these to a few friends.
Here are a few:
I will not go out with a man who hasn't asked me out first.
I will not go out with a man who keeps me waiting by the phone.
I will not date a man who isn't sure he wants to date me.
I will not date a man who makes me feel sexually undesirable.
I will not date a man who drinks or does drugs to an extent that makes me uncomfortable.
I will not be with a man who's afraid to talk about our future.
I will not, under any circumstances, spend my precious time with a man who has already rejected me.
I will not date a man who is married.
I will not be with a man who is not clearly a good, kind, loving person.

Most of tips in the above post apply to almost all human relationships. I feel for someone that doesn't know this yet especially if you are over 22 years old.They are great rules to live by. #1 and #6 are forgivable because girls heads are filled with "You sometimes have to make the first move" and "oh, he's just scared of commitment" talk that spewed in romantic comedies and tv shows.
I will not date a guy that boasts about his material things. He is insecure.
I will not date a man that doesn't clean.
I will not date a man that refuses to cook.
I will not date a man that is disrespectful to women.
I will not date a man that puts work before me or our (future) children.
I will not date a man that doesn't go down.
I will not date a man that loves me less than I love him.
I will not date a man that tried to sleep with any of my friends.
I will not date a man who owns nothing.
I will not date a man who has no interest in living a healthy lifestyle.
I will not date a man that does not have any goals.
