Originally posted by anileve I fail to understand this. How is a woman looking for all those attrubutes looking for a loser? What is wrong with looking for the desired qualities in a partner, except for 60% of men not being able to match them?
We live in a society now where we want everything and we want it now. We are told through the media and through pop culture that there exists perfection ... we see it in movies, we see it in pictures, we see it in glamour shots, and we read about it in books. But many simply refuse to see the reality ... that for example the majority of the relationships in holywood, i.e. those same people that portray perfections on screen, end in disasters. We fail to see that real relationships take compromise, sacrifice, and a lot of effort as well as realistic goals as opposed to just stiving for perfection.
People often start to list qualities like this and this and this and this that they want in a partner ... when in the end, a relationship is much more dynamic and it is much more "two way". It's the whole dymanics, the whole "symbiosis" that is important. Those who simply list qualities that they want in their partner, will almost surely end up being unhappy in my opinion.this post = teh win.

This is why I don't like this woman......
It’s a rare woman who is interested more in the man than in what the man can do for her.
I'm interested in the man.
She's interested in what he can do for her that she can't do for herself.
Other than that, I think her wanting an ambitious man is not a problem at all.Last edited by ckBejug; 03-31-2004, 06:44 PM.The test of a first-rate intelligence is the ability to hold two opposing ideas in mind at the same time and still retain the ability to function. -- F. Scott Fitzgerald

Originally posted by Seapahn If a woman is looking for perfection, then 100% of men will not be able to match that. All I am saying is "striving for perfection" is too stringent of a requirement. Someone who is intelligent enough to realize that perfection is unattainable and thus, striving for it is pointless.
I don't agree that you shouldn't chase the "unobtainable". We will never know the meaning/purpose/point to life. Does that mean we should stop trying? Within any never ending pursuit in one's life comes a sort of subconscious purpose to it. That objective has unintentionally formed your personal purpose. What happens when you're complacent with where you're at? Complacency equals death, not much to distinguish you from a rotting corpse.
On the other hand, I agree that the term "perfect" is pretty weak and pathetic in itself. First of all, it's a pretty subjective word. Secondly, her idea of perfection seems to be based on the rules of society as I said earlier. That's why I have a problem with this "intelligent woman who has it together".
More on this after some Chili's (part of my striving for "dinning out" perfection....)
