Guys, what do you expect in a relationship from your girlfriend?

[sephora]

I want serious answers. I don't want to hear that you want a sandwich and bj, because that is overused, and is not funny anymore.

[Frostie]

I've answered this question at least 4-5 times before. The question isn't what "We" want, its more so getting to know us individually and knowing what "we want". Most women don't know what THEY want, so don't worry about us, till you know about yourself. A lot of girls I've come across seem to mention "I'm not looking for a hook up, I'm looking for a man" and you know, that sh*t gets so old. If they COULD get a relationship, they wouldnt' be bitchin' about bein the hook ups or that their baby's daddy was a scum bag. Sad thing is, there is a reason for it. Something they're doing is, f***ing sh*t up. Other girls aren't constantly getting stuck with those types. With that said, they need to stop blaming men for it. Quit giving out like that to random strangers ffs. Don't try to tell me "women know what they want" If they knew that, they wouldn't be flip flopping half the time over trivial things and over the big things.. forget it. Understanding a woman's mind makes no sense. One minute they want guys to hit on them, the next they're tearing some poor guy down for talking to them because they wanted a certain guy to talk to them. Then they complain about being "objectified" while they're wearing booty shorts in public. I mean the bullsh*t has no ends. Seriously! Get your own sh*t together. I wish many women would stop stereotyping men,and claiming they know what they want when they clearly do NOT. They want respect, yet they dress as if they have no class and are cheaper than a ho. Sure there are those few who don't do this, but If I had a buck for every chick I saw in booty shorts, a bikini (walking down the side walk-which is basically like walking naked down the side walk in under wear/bra) I'd be f***ing rich. You want to make a guy happy? Give him a f***ing compliment on what he does RIGHT, quit bitching at him about what he does WRONG.. learn to appreciate us. I don't know a guy who doesn't like being admired. You want to talk sh*t on him, nag him, or tell him what to do, and take away the things that make him,him? go for it. Just don't expect anything to come of it. If you don't love him for him,and what makes him,him, then go get married to an emasculated p**** or someone of YOUR gender. I know what I want in a Girl, and my standards aren't unrealistic to meet, just many can't f***ing meet average. cause they either they're stuck up and look beautiful, or they're way way below average and have to be very nice because they don't have the power to give someone the bird and cut them down for no f'n reason.

I want a girl who compliments my attributes with her own. She's unique enough from me to always be interesting, but not so different that we don't share anything in common.

I want her to be full of energy, well mannered and friendly. She should be someone I can take places with me, and later people will ask me about her to know more.

She should be intricate. A puzzle to me that over time I slowly unlock; she shouldn't be a wall I can't get through.

She should be independent in matters of business and funds, but be dependent in the fact that she needs my love, like I need hers.

She should be strong when I am weak, and tame me when I am angry.

She should know that I expect the same of myself for her.

[luzianne555]

It really depends on the girl.

Some girls I'll expect to do late night Star Wars/Lord of The Rings/Harry Potter/Whatever marathons. The same girls, I usually expect to 'game' with me from time to time.

Others, I'll expect to go fishing with me from time to time, along with kayaking. The same ones usually go camping/hiking with me.



All of them however, need to be intellectuals and be able to have fairly deep conversations with me. They also need to read a fair amount, preferably fantasy books.

Sex is a definite bonus, but I certainly don't date women just for sex, nor do I not-date them because of lack of sex.

[elfmasta00]

Someone with a brain. Hard to find a girl who can actually debate things and back them self up with facts. Someone who isn't over bearing. One who doesn't follow the flock., and has their own interests, and opinions that aren't from MTV or Cosmo. Women who don't blow things out of proportion, and actually think things out instead of going off the first emotion they feel. Someone who is strait forward and doesn't say one thing and mean another. I hate those little games.

In other words, an individual, who isn't bipolar.

[dons220]

First off I think it's important to state that I've never had a girlfriend. That said I'm not ugly or socially awkward, just picky and unlucky I guess, though I haven't really been trying till now.

What I hope to find is someone who I can feel connected with in a way that I can't get with others in my life, be it friend, family, or what have you. Someone that I can be completely vulnerable with and have them be completely vulnerable with me. Eventually, once the relationship has been built enough, I want to be able to express my feelings for her without having to hold anything back. I want someone who can be my motivation to be better and who I can help push to be better, so that I can see them taking on life fully and revel in that sight.

Besides that, the basic stuff you know. Have fun doing activities together, and sh*t, whatever our interest are.

I could go on, but you get the gist.

[Prof_Don]

The main quality that I look for is companionship.

With a girlfriend, I truly see her as a partner in all of my life endeavors, someone to bounce ideas off of, someone to enjoy being with and having fun around, someone to help and assist me with my endeavors in life.

Oh yeah...and of COURSE I'll do the same for her.

There is no half-assing with me in a relationship. You have to be fully invested emotionally and physically with me; no wavering or wishy-washy nonsense that seems to be the basis of 2/3 of the questions on this site.

--------------

With companionship...then you pretty much got a FWB with a title (or just a friend if you're not being physically intimate at all).

[Prof_Don]

*without companionship

[Belgie]

Someone who'll inspire me, amuse me, challenge me. Laugh at my jokes. Travel with me. Be spontaneous with me. Love me while I'm there, speak well of me when I'm not.

[sephora]

does she have to laugh at your jokes even if they are not funny ;)

[Belgie]

As the Spock icon should show, my jokes are always funny. (/deadpan)

[normalice]

i can make my own sandwiches. As long as she keeps me sexually satisfied, doesn't complain about anything I can't do something about, knows to leave me alone sometimes, and doesn't ask for more of anything that offered her from the start of our relationship: as long as these conditions are met, I'll be very happy with her. Otherwise, I'll spend word she speaks trying to figure out how to be rid of her.

[wilbur12]

someone who will take the time to know me for me. with that she knows how to: defend me, please me, help me, and understand me in depressing moods. someone who genuinely cares about me and wants to be there no matter what

[wilbur12]

and for the person that thumbed me down; you are probably some fat ass sitting at home wondering why you don't have a relationship :)

[Lupianwolf]

We'd be two different people but just like I'd try to make her feel loved, happy or laugh

I'd want the same

Be interested in spending time with me and in my hobbies

[AllenShoutNever]

for her to love me like I love her, accept me, give me attention and affection, take me out on dates, for her to not expect me to pay for everything. someone who won't pick fights or battles with me and someone who will make me laugh

[Phoenix1991]

loyal, respect, maturity and understanding, that's really about it.

[anonymousbastard]

Someone who isn't a blood sucking money spending two timing leech.

[DS4L_]

owchhh, someone's ex is a b*tch :/

[anonymousbastard]

Oh no never a had a Girlfriend lol. That's what I wouldn't want lol.

[CasaNorba]

everything but... stress, drama and immaturity

[toleranger]

Honestry, sincerity, acceptance and good will.
