........and what would u rather see?

@Eleven there is no points for men. It's this type of articles http://www.snopes.com/language/document/goodwife.asp lol

Men need to have some marriage material standards too, they don't solely choose us anymore, we choose them as well.

@creative bee I feel you on that but this site is 90% women. Why would we talk to men on here?

Comment by Creative Bee on August 5, 2011 at 1:01pm

Maybe talk about what to look in a man who is marriage material, what standards to set for him? I feel like a lot of articles put blame on women when relationship doesn't work, and there is some truth to it because they chose wrong men. Didn't we just had a discussion that no matter how beautiful, successful, skillful and smart you are they still going to cheat on you? So whats the point for a woman to go out of her ways to please him if she chose the wrong one in the first place?

oh and i forgot to add many women on this site do not possess all the negative qualities listed above.  There are some hopeless individuals though but they are not listening any advice anyways lol

@ Creative Bee true...BUT a lot of the posts where roles are reversed no one offers any feedback on so I figure thats not the stuff you want to read about. And I definitely didn't say that anyone here possesses all of those traits because that poor individual is going to have a hard life. But i can name at least one that i have and i'm sure others can identify with one of these traits, whether they'd like to meet it or not

I agree with this. NO man wants a bum b****.

This article has some good points, but I must say that I share the same line of thinking as Creative Bee. Also, I think one aspect that may have been missing from the article is that not all of us are rushing to to get married or carrying a feeling of envy because we see our sister-friends getting married, secretly wishing to be next in line. I know that I dont fall into the category of any of the above listed traits but I certainly do some females who do. Ive been engaged and proposed to, so I know what that feels like---but I also know what standards I expect any future husband to meet. I just feel like in today's society people (and especially other woman) make us feel as though youre not sh*t unless you have a ring on your finger, and these kinds of articles do somewhat place the blame solely on women for not being enough etc. It's easy to get a ring on your finger, but not as easy to pick the best potential long-term mate. I think there should be more emphasis on women building up who they are and gaining more confidence instead of saying "this is what youre doing wrong", so to speak.There are way too many low self-esteem type females all too happy when they get proposed to and say yes, just because it's offered. I know that when I marry, I expect it to be the first, last and only time I do it. Marriage can be a beautiful thing, but it's a shame how many people do it, just to say they have a husband.
