What do girls mean when they say "I want a man who can handle them"? and what does it mean when a man can or can't handle them?

I agree with everything that has been said here. I want a guy who can take me on, put up with me, let me be free to say and do things, but who is not afraid to say no to me. A rational man who will listen to my side, but also know how put his foot down. Not an indecisive person. I am quiet and kinda shy in some cases so I want a man who is strong and talkative. I want you to know what we are going to do, what you want and how we are going to get there. I think this makes me feel secure. I a strong woman and I want my man to be strong also. Sometimes I just want to not have to make a decision, not think about anything, but since you know me so well I am willing to let you take the reigns and "handle" it.

"i want someone who can handle me" means I want someone in my league, or I'm out of his league. If a man can't handle them, they probably don't know how to come at her. They're clueless on how to intrigue her. Most girls like for a guy to be the strong one in the relationship. For example, I hate it when I've been on a couple of dates with a guy and he's like "so...what do you want to do? I prefer for the guy to take the reigns and say hey, I'm gonna take you here, you'll love it! If a guy doesn't understand how to intrigue a girl and keep her interest, he can't handles her.

I would interpret that as a girl wanting a man that can handle their mood swings, their need for attention, and be able to understand how they are feeling and help them out. That is what I would mean if I said that I needed a man that could handle me.

Us girls like a man who knows how to please us when it's the right moment. Know what we want in a sort of way, be there for us and treat us like we're your everything. We want a guy who can handle our personality our likes and dislikes, our beliefs and etc even maybe in sex way to...What does it mean????? Basically your not good enough for them or you don't fit in there "I want a man who cam handle me"....

I think the saying actually goes "I want a man who can handle me"
And Handle could mean a gazillion things..
Take care of her and be a gentleman, able to deal with her tantrums and pms, hold her and cuddle, have passionate sex sessions.. the list goes on..

A man who isn't going to walk away when she gets moody. Everyone has bad days, but they don't always handle them the same. In my opinion, someone who says that is likely kinda crazy acting when they have a bad day.

Actually the words "I want a guy who can handle me" thing is my dialogue.

What do I mean by that? I NEED a guy who has a strong sense of direction, stonger personality than I am and most of all, not easily persuaded by my decisions and would let me see the other side of view/point clearly and would respect my side of thought.

- The guy who can't handle that is not qualified.

They want someone who likes there the way they are and can put up with them while dealing and knowing how they are while making them a better person.

What a girl means is can you handle their actions. Because girls who say that, are usually party animals like me and controling them and not being able to let them go and when to keep them in.
