I thought I wanted a dominant man. But all I get is possessive, untrustworthy, jealous, controlling types. Maybe I need to stop using the word dominant. I don't want a man that sits back and let's the woman organise everything and make all the decisions. I want a man who is responsible but also adventurous. A man with goals or aspirations. A man who wants to work towards bettering himself and his life. Not just happy to wallow and be lazy. I want a man who is strong, protective and can take the lead. But also cares and considers me and is not afraid to show his emotions to me. Show me that he adores me as much as i him. Maybe I should say I want a confident man? Is that better? Cos if i say dominant I get men who then think I'm submissive and want to be controlled. And I don't.
It seems you think you need one word to describe the man you want, but that won't work because a man can be both confident and an asshole, or both dominant and insecure. It sounds to me like you want a man who is both dominant and confident, as well as kind, compassionate, and all those other things you mentioned.

That's the quandary many women find themselves in when they decide to pursue a relationship with a dominant guy. You never know exactly what you're going to get, but if he's open to compromise, he may be amenable to refining his repertoire to better suit your personal preferences.

I wish women would stop playing mind games and stop the practice of their outdated & flawed mate selection program coz clearly its not working out for them (Shooting aimlessly and randomly even at their own feet)
It depends. Do you really want a man who is going to support you, or one who will degrade you in a safe and consensual manner? Because either one will be like finding a needle in a social haystack.
"Who think I'm submissive" ? So you're not?
You honestly won't attract genuine dominant men without being submissive
Should not say that you want a dominant man if you not submissive or if you want a cuck.
You want a very confident man that's able to take control but still values your input and desires. Is loving and caring. What do you think?
sensitive and smart, truly confident..
experienced as wellI think you need an equal who is as assertive or as comprising as the situation requires.
Yeah, you want a man who knows who and what he is and what he wants. You also don't want orn who tries to appear unemotional to seem strong.
