It means we want a girl that will give us attention, along with focus on her career. We don't want a girl that is always working. I myself am also an attention hog.

not a lot of guy friends-- does this mean that you wouldnt have a lot of girl friends?
Guy friends for girls are a d1ck in a glass case, ready to be used in case of emergency. We don't like that. And guys don't have girl friends, just friends that are girls we haven't slept with yet.

submissive as in they have a problem they'll just be casual about it and let it slide
I would love my girl to death and beyond if she could do that for me. Especially if it is a stupid little problem.

so then is it okay if guys arent always working and also give girl attention. Because most guys are very career oriented to the fact that they live for work.

so then you are saying your a dick in a glass case for your friend that is a girl that will whip you out whenever she wants some? because that isn't cool. If you expect it from a girl, the same should be said about you.

stupid problems, I agree, but it takes a passive guy to bring passivity out in a girl.

submissive as in they have a problem they'll just be casual about it and let it slide, or you don't want a woman that isn't afraid to stand up for themselves. Youll probably answer no to that last question, but please clarify number 7
- In the past i have always butted heads with women with overly-strong personalities. You know the types, the ones who insist on wearing the pants. Even though they are traditionally better in bed, it is not worth it

- Yes, I don't have alot of girl friends and never did. Every girl that said we were just friends turned out to want more. Co-ed friendships rarely work, something intimate always happens at some point and then one person is always out of luck.

- relatively submissive means I don't want an argument over everything a woman doesn't like. As men, our lives are a broken record of doing things we DONT want to do and we shut up and do them anyways. I expect a woman to trust her man's judgement, actions, and decisions. If I respect a woman, I expect her to respect me as well.

Guys do that because it is expected from us. What does a girl always dream of? Marrying a guy that has money and power. Working up the career ladder can bring both.

I always help out a friend in need, unless I'm with somebody.

Agreed. But some girls like a guy that is assertive. Like my ex used to always ask me why I am not jealous when she hugs her guy friends, or when her guy friends called her in front of me. I responded that I trusted her, to which she responded "you don't care about me enough to be jealous" (or something to that manner)

Im on my way to being a Pharmacist, so unless I marry a doctor or succesfull business owner, Im probably going to be the bread winner. So that comment is a stereotype that isn't true in all cases. I want whats expected of me to be expected of him.

So then you ditch your friends that are girls when you start dating someone?? I doubt your friends that are girls appreciate that.

You are right about the assertive thing, I like an assertive guy, but my last boyfriend had both qualities, maybe more passive than assertive, but nobody is 100 percent one or the other.

Would you think less of your man if you were the breadwinner?

In my recent case, I did. She was so jealous that she would get mad when any of them called. I regret doing that.

I would be pissed off if my gf said that to me. That's some whack shit. After hearing that I'm 100% positive that you're better off. Hopefully she gets some security with herself.

This is how women test you my friend, if you call the bluff she will know you are the real deal. If a girl pulled that sh1t on me I wouldnt say a thing, the first thing I would do is go out that night (without her) and meet two new girls for every guy she talked to on the phone. After this, I would continue talking to these girls and just assume everything was casual. This is a game some woman play and it is extremely disrespectful in my opinion. Behavior like this is a red flag and typically not long-term material so just treat her casually and treat her exactly the same way. Oddly, women are drawn to this behavior so she will probably be all over you after the fact.

I mostly agree with you gotrice02. The difference is, I'd just flat out ice the girl that tests me. As you implied, there are plenty of other women out there.

And what's more, like gotrice02 said, she'll call back.

Yep, don't act like you are bothered though because when women test men like that they are looking for a reaction. Just stop calling and cut off all communication for 6-7 days and then make up a BS excuse about being out of town or busy when she tries to contact you again. During that time she will wonder what you are thinking, what she did wrong, and why you dont like her. This drives women crazy...you gotta fight fire with fire.
