how does this contradict the points we are bringing up? I think we are all going to be good husbands and follow the virtues you have just listed there.

the difference is, we want to be serving a woman that is worth our love/respect for - thus, standards

yes, agreed

the mistake is thinking that by finding the mental checklist woman of your dreams will make you happy.

You determine your happiness, it is of your control. A woman who is drop dead gorgeous or average will NOT determine your happiness.
Click to expand...

I think that's a little bit ignorant. And you are trying to tell me my dad is wrong, my dad is not wrong.

A very attractive women will raise confidence in yourself. Will make you want to take care of her and love her a lot. Will give you attractive kids and will make you proud of your kids, plus will make life a lot easier for your kids.

Having a woman who is drop dead gorgeous has a lot of pros and doesn't necessarily have any cons unless of course she is lacking in other areas and every woman has areas of lacking and has strong areas. But my happiness can depend on how attractive my wife is. When I get older my love for my wife will have aged and matured and changed and looks will not matter as much as loyalty and the fact that we've lived together for 20 years etc.

mannnn i wish i was in on this thread earlier, this is the juiciest stuff thus far!

sad im not with my gf anymore though (or at least for the time being...) single and ready to mingle 😉

i just want to point out that with my experiences with women its not always about playing games or being hard to get, so i dont know if i can agree with all the stuff you guys were just saying....you need to be able to get a woman interested in you, but know your boundaries and be able to quickly understand hers ive been rejected far too many times for being to blunt, or playing too hard to get or being too much of an @ss
Click to expand...

I agree and I stated this earlier that you don't necessarily have to play games, but it is situation dependent. If I just met a girl and got her number then there is somewhat of game playing/feeling each other out. Some girls play the game just to make sure you're not pathetic or desperate.

yeah, i got out of an overdue relationship a few months ago. its great to get back to me. and yeah, game is part of it and figuring out each others boundaries is what the game is about. if it works, then it works. the game does it's job by letting you know if the timing is there for something to happen. timing is everything.
 
By drop dead gorgeous I mean a women who you find attractive. You should never ever ever settle, because you will always regret the decision you made, that is what I am trying to say!

I'm 6'2" and 197 right now. Not sure on % bf but probably pretty high 20%ish. AT the very least, higher than I'd prefer. I want to be able to see my abs with some definition by end of summer, which is all just cutting body fat.

Give give give is the best attitude you could possibly have.

that is some co-dependant stuff right there. A woman will quickly lose interest in you if you don't allow her the opportunity to please you (and I'm not just talking about sex).

that's such an easy conclusion to come to though. it only works if you have a positive relationship with your mom though. if so, of course you'd want your SO to carry the same positive characteristics that your mom has.

You know, I love my mom, but I would hate to marry a woman like her. I think this is common for a lot of people who were brought up by ultra-religious parents but turn out to be rather un-religious.

Thanks man, I'm 6' 2" as well, but I'm 230, but again, most is muscle. I can't see my abs either though. I have the body of a NFL linebacker but maybe a little less muscle and a little more fat. I definitely wanna lean down though, lose fat and muscle.

any woman will tell you what I say is accurate BUT this doesn't mean they will not go for a selfish guy.

Again, I point to the divorce rate. Women do not go for what they know is best for them, but some do. I would say most don't.

How said:
If your dad is saying a woman's attractiveness or lack there of determines your happiness, your dad is DEAD wrong. So wrong that he couldn't be more wrong.


Wow. So wrong again. You guys say I'm dealing in ideals, but my ideals are about service. The statement above is a fantasy.

How someone looks will not make you more confident. Nor will it make you want to care more for her. This is a very childish understanding of life. How you take care of people has to do with a code that you live by. It has to do with what type of person you are NOT your circumstances.

I'm sure life will be easier for your kids if they are good looking. I could also name people living amazing lives who aren't models.



There are so many problems with this philosophy.
Click to expand...


Studies show that parents choose a favorite kid and the favorite kid is the more attractive child. I don't have any sources, but I remember reading about it.

If I used to date Adrianna Lima, and now I date Rosie O'Donnel I don't expect myself to treat them the same. I will feel as though I could do better and probably wouldn't end up staying with Rosie. Someone else might find Rosie more attractive than Adrianna and they end up staying with Rosie, but me personally, would not be able to stay with Rosie because I do not find her attractive and would feel as though I have let myself down.

depending on the girl, they can actually be the best way for you to get in the head of women and learn what they want/need

everything ive learned has either been through experience or through other girls telling me

i think some women like the idea of knowing a guy has expections, and wanting to fulfill those expections - or at least, i've heard this sentiment from friends

It's tough to do it as a pre-med. Working out 6 days a week, plus the diet.

The workouts aren't that bad though, Insanity has harder workouts.

Then again, it all depends on your level of fitness.
 
How said:
Its funny that those that are disagree with me are somehow implying that I think you should be with an unattractive woman. I am not.

It is very likely you will be attracted to the woman you marry.

see you are full of it... you change your stance on things and then try to spin it like you agree with the give and take, without actually agreeing. It is impossible to discuss things with a person who can't stick to what they said earlier in the conversation. 🙄

I generally don't like getting dating advice from women. But, I know a girl who is a freaking man-eater. Me and her are "just-friends" and she is a very attractive girl, but not the type of girl I would ever date, so she knows I'm not going for her and has given me some of the best advice ever. She spits mad game, like I don't think I would ever be able to keep up with her.

On the other hand, I've tried getting advice from girls who don't hit the dating scene as hard and most of their advice has bit me in the a*$ in some way or the other.

Honestly though, being yourself is the best advice. You don't want a girl who is going to date you thinking you are something you're not. I want a girl who wants me for me. I just have to keep her interested, so you can't always be the one to start texting her and you can't always answer her calls etc. It really is simple. I feel like pre-meds try to make it into a science or into a formula, it's more of an art.
 
are you sure you arent pre law?
 
How said:
Your shallowness is coming through slowly here buddy.

I don't need to look at a study to understand that people gravitate towards attractive people, it is obvious. Being attractive gives you more authority and persuasive ability, it is a fact. I've studied persuasion in a lot of depth.

What I'm saying that your weakness as a human being is on display. If you change who you are as a human being based upon how good looking or not the person you are with is, then you are shallow.

You are letting something outside of you change your character. You bend and break like a reed in the wind based upon your circumstances.
Click to expand...

You can call it shallow, I call it instinct.

Studies have also shown men choose attractive women instinctively to have attractive kids. Not for their own pleasure. Again, just because society tells me Adrianna Lima is sexy doesn't mean she's my type. I have my own type of girl that I am looking for, what I look for in a woman has nothing to do with what you think. If I bend and break for society, isn't it the same as me bending and breaking to try to not be shallow?
