Good List…  Many I agree with.  But you really do wonder if any one guy can fit all or even most of those qualities…

101.  Will not criticize my body parts.

I had a boyfriend who looked at me while I was standing there in a skirt and said, “Wow!  You look great, but your knees have all kinds of argle-bargle on them.” 
First of all, my knees?
Second, what’s “argle-bargle?”  Needless to say, I never wore a skirt with him again….

KellyJean - My last boyfriend poked the fat on my sides…  Drove me nuts…  One of his friends pointed out that he did it and that it annoyed me, and he kept doing it!!  :o)

I think that trying to make a list like this and look for a guy who has all of these qualities will leave you depressed and alone forever. No girl, let alone guy fits all 100 of these things. Id be surprised if I even did half of the things on this list.

Oh no, it’s not that the guy has to possess everything on this list. It’s that he should possess the qualities on this list that are important to you.

Some of those don’t apply to me or I don’t agree with some of them, but number 40 is adorable . “40. …will wear plaid well. ” That really should be a must because I love plaid.

Kelly Jean and Fluffy - I can identify with your comments. My ex said to me (immediately after sex, mind you) “It would have been nice if you had a body like a model.” (While I wasn’t overweight, I guess I just wasn’t emaciated enough for him.) We broke up soon after, but it scarred me for a long time.

Personally, I’d be a little uncomfortable comparing a man to a fantasy list. While I do agree that some of the things on the list are essential for a successful relationship, there are a few items that seem born out of insecurity. I try to have to have enough confidence in myself that I don’t need a man to reassure me of my worth. That said, it does feel great to know that there is someone rooting for you during the good times and the bad times.

Ya Katia,

That’s just horrible.  But ya, this guy would poke my fat, but after sex he’d keep repeating how much he loved my curves…  Oh well, on to the next one I guess. 

P.S. Love the comment about Brad Pitt’s face Lea!!

If “Won’t cheat on me” is Number 1, then they’re looking in the wrong place to start with. And if “Will be Tall” is on their list at all, they don’t deserve any companionship whatsoever.

John K—> That’s not fair, I dated a guy that was quite a bit shorter than myself and it didn’t work out because he was very insecure about his height.  Height may be a preference for some women…

e—> The list is a guideline, no one will be able to meet every standard on this list, it is a **wish** list.  It is in no way bitchy, would you yourself settle for someone you felt was less than “worthy” for you?  Would you expect your sister (if you have one) to settle for anything less than she deserves?

Fluffy—> I think John is completely right!  How many on the list have to do with him appreciating you for who you are and how you look, but HE has to be tall?  some ladies may prefer a man who is taller then them, but is that really necessary for a list?  I am shorter man (5’6”), and not at all insecure about my height… I too expect to be loved for who I am, and long ago realized there is nothing i can do about height.  But I have had girls tell me “sorry, your too short” when I asked them out.  Between that and things like number 13, well it is no wonder a lot of short men are insecure…

Katia
wrote on November 9 2008 @ 11:09 pm: [report]

I have to agree with the men about the tall issue. It is insulting. I’m 5’10” and a man’s height has never been an issue with me, but a lot of men don’t like tall women. When I was in high school I was told that I should be looking at colleges that have a good basketball team because how else was I going to find a husband of an “acceptable” height difference. I remember feeling so insulted by 1.) the assumption that the only reason for a female to attend college was to find a husband and 2.) that I had to be limited to taller men when a guy’s height was something I never considered before. I recently had a crush on a guy who was 5’6. Sadly, he is really hung up on his (lack of) height and would never give me a chance because I’m taller than him. It’s made him quite bitter where women are concerned.

I am a man and I fit the list completely except for #13 and #40. I’m only 5’8” tall and there is no way I look good in plaid, but at least I know it and don’t try to pull it off. I don’t meet many quality people and if I had a list like that for women I’d probably meet even less. All I ask is for someone who takes care of themselves, has at least some intelligence and confidence, and who doesn’t smoke or do drugs since I would like to have children with them some day. How about writing an article on how to meet decent people?

I’m pretty open when it comes to men but the list was fun to read.  i have one prerequisite that because of past experience would never budge on and that is height.  I’m 5’11 and it is just to awkward to date a guy less than 6’0 tall. i mean what girl doesn’t want to wear heels sometimes?

Fluffy
wrote on November 9 2008 @ 11:42 pm: [report]

I’m totally not saying that there’s something wrong with shorter guys.  Myself I am 5’4”, if a guy shows interest that is shorter than I am, I would of course see where it went, that is what I did with my last (and only) boyfriend.  As many qualities that women have that they want their future boyfriend to possess, guys have just as many.  I’m not trying to sound insulting here, but when I’m 24 and I finally get my first boyfriend and I’m totally normal, there’s a problem.

I know that I have a really good personality, I am outgoing, friendly, and very good girlfriend “material”.  My only problem is that I am a little overweight.  Most guys can’t see past that issue to really get inside and see who I really am.  Like I tell my friends, just because I’m not the skinniest girl, does not mean I should be written off as a girlfriend…

It is hard to find a normal caring person.  I am on 4 different dating websites and I am yet to find a “decent” match.  Many matches that are provided to me close communication before I even speak with them…  Out of 120 guys, you’d think at least one of them would be giving me a chance…

wrote on November 9 2008 @ 11:48 pm: [report]

OK I scored about a D-, no big surprise there—but I gotta say, for almost every item I *could* put a check mark next to, I could think of an example of it falling totally flat with a woman.  It seems like the more you bend over backwards to be Mr. Nice Guy, the more women take you for granted.  So they lose respect for you, or all the good stuff becomes the new baseline so it counts for nothing and you’re expected to increase it, constantly, forever.  And forget about equality!

All I’m saying is, if you’re making a checklist to help you get the wonderful guy you just KNOW you deserve, make sure you actually do deserve him (ever wonder what’s on HIS checklist?  probably less than ten things, they’re easy and no they aren’t all about sex), and you really want what you say you want (let me assure you from long experience that you DON’T want guys to talk out problems, and the novelty of the “tall” thing wears off in a month and after that it’s just an inconvenience).

Personally, once I notice something good about a woman I’m primed to notice other good things about her.  It avoids all the negativity of rating them against a template (which is obviously based on the flaws of your exes), and it’s a wonderful feeling, loving someone for things you didn’t even know you cared about before you met them.

Lists like this make me bust out laughing when I hear all these stories of how hard it is to find a ‘good man’.

Only 15% of men are taller than 6’, so with that one requirement you just reduced your potential pool of applicants by a gigantic amount. Add in the requisite education requirements and a few personal peeves (example, 36% of the population over 18 does not drink AT ALL, wine lovers and beer swillers) and you’ve pretty much reduced your available pool to a statistically insignificant number.

Now, add the odds that *you* must also meet this person’s unrealistic bullet point list and the probabilities of running into this individual are non-existent.

Enjoy that loooooong six-sigma search…

Change your most statistically stringent deal breakers and you may actually have a shot at meeting someone.

Ladies (and guys, too!), I think the gist here is not to settle for “good enough”. Know what’s important to you, whether it’s just one or all 100 of these, be realistic and never settle. (And live up to these yourself!)

P.S. I’m dating a man who fits all but #40 (plaid — who cares) so they do exist. But hands off — he’s mine!

i sure do love this list. i was overcome with emotion when i realized that my current boyfriend possesses some of the most important qualities listed here, and i was happy to see that i could put a question mark next to some, as if it were something to either work on or just monitor and see how it progresses over time.

no man can possess all of these qualities, nor should he possess all of these qualities. imperfection* is key, remember? we’re still human here.

on the “tall” thing, i agree that the novelty wears off after a while.  i’m about 6’1”, and i’ve dated a few shorter girls in my time.  the last girl i dated would make me walk on the lower side of slightly sloped sidewalks so that we could be closer in height.  i thought it was cute, but still…

I’ve dated many short guys and I hated towering over them when I wore heels.  I’m not quite sure why, but I felt insecure about it. Then I had one boyfriend who was 6’1” and it made me never want to date a short guy again.

The tall guy hated my cat though.

And personally, I wouldn’t date a guy who wanted kids because I don’t want any myself!

My boyfriend doesn’t fit many of those supposedly perfect traits and you know what? I love him all the more for it. Sure, we all want a guy who doesn’t cheat and is open and honest, but here’s one girl who will never have this list on her fridge.

If that’s perfect, I’ll take screwed up any day of the week.

Good grief, get a life. Go screw someone you hardly know in the rest room. Have sex in the morning when your breath smells. Grow hair in your armpits. Run in a field of daffodils. Just do something different other than make inane lists that drive heterosexual men to celibacy. We don’t fit in a box. We don’t want a woman who fits their either. The spark in relationships won’t last - find yourself - you’ll be interesting - then you can have a relationship. Just don’t tell me what to f*ing do and I won’t tell you.

Holy Steve,

No one told you how to be.  This is just a **fake** list…  No guy will ever be able to fit all of this, just like IF guys had lists for women no one woman would ever fit that list.  This is compiled from several women’s wants in a relationship.  Personally my “list” consists of 3 things:
1) Treat me well.
2) Know how to make me laugh and smile when I’m down.
3) Have nice eyes and a nice smile.

That’s all I look for in a guy.  I don’t care if he can wear plaid well, kinda about the guy being tall, but it’s totally not necessary.  Loving someone’s flaws is part of being in a relationship…

I’m not a big fan of this list either, but sheesh! If I had a dollar for every time a guy told me his (irrational) fantasy list for what his ideal woman should be…I could bail out AIG. Both sexes have wish lists, the problem is when you adhere to them too rigidly and refuse to consider real people. I’d rather have a nice guy with faults who treated me well and made me laugh, than someone who wasn’t true to himself and trying to live up to an inane and impossible form of ‘perfection’. That said, I would also hope that he would not hold me up to a similar list.

Are we lost here? Everyone was being so nice. It’s not like that. I don’t believe guys make lists like this - at the beginning you’re either hot or not, can I get laid or not - it’s really simple, sorry, we’re animals - Schopenhauer called this out, it’s not much different with females - later on it’s a lot more complicated and based on friendship and that’s what counts - there’s only one list:

1. Are you someone who loves themselves
2. Are you someone I could spend time with
3. Are you someone I could have kids with
and finally
4. Are you someone I could grow old with

Anything else is just hormones

and Amelia, enjoy your celibacy too.

I agree that all those are important qualities. But so are other things—no one said a guy had to fit the entire list. it’s a compilation of the things women submitted.

Some of them do, not all of them. Just like some of the ones on our list make me cringe—these don’t apply to everyone. But why is it wrong to have a few things that you really desire in a partner—maturity, appreciation of your independence, hell, even height—and expressing that you want those things? No one is asking for perfection.

And isn’t it amazing how easily a guy can go from insulting a woman to flirting with her?

I just ended my 3 year relationship because I felt that I deserved better and overall I just wasn’t happy anymore. I just checked off all the qualities my ex had, and he scored aboit a 30%!
Before I broke up with him, I wrote out a list of Pros and Cons just so I can see that i’m not being unfair, and maybe i’m the one with the issues.
Sure enough, there weren’t enough Pro’s to even out the cons. I happily ended it, and ready to fulfill my goal and aspirations… This was fun to read BTW.

wow. The list IS kinda ridiculous, but not for the reasons some guys are raging on.

I’m a guy who’s 5’8” and not terribly bothered by that.
I’m also surprised how NOT THAT BAD the list actually is. Honestly I scoffed when I first saw that it was 100 items long, but it’s really not all that bad. Many items repeat previous ideas or are categorically similar.

Some simple grouping could knock that list in half, if not a quarter. You girls really AREN’T asking all that much on this list, and I was kinda surprised at how many I think I’m on top of.

But frankly, the list is very telling.

Half of the top ten outlines that he can’t be an unemployed, pothead, hateful, cheating alcoholic that thinks you’re ugly. that’s a lot of odd “must not” items.

Ah, but #13. Must be tall.

A lot of girls have obviously put up with a lot #&@$%, but at least they were tall #&@$%.
I get it, and I understand how wonderful girls find it to be, but I’ve always been baffled how many supposedly important traits girls would sacrifice for 6’4”.

I have a couple of tall friends I hang out with and when we go to the bar, I am invisible.
(note: I hope this doesn’t sound bitter because the ar is not a place I go to meet women. I go there to talk with local friends and I like to people watch. The “invisible” thing is a product of those observations).

My point being, like I said, this list really is NOT that demanding. Especially if you don’t go overboard and think that ANY girl is realistically looking for guys to score 101%. But seriously girls, If you’d stop looking so high (literally) there’s a lot of good guys just a few inches lower.

this list isnt about our men living up to it, its about the fact that we want our men to love us enough that they actually fit some of these qualities…

Hi. I fit this bill perfectly? ha-ha. I’m not even kidding. I actually enjoy a lot of what people consider the more “girlie” aspects of a relationship, So I’m generally happy with a lot of these things.
