    (I know I posted something similar before,but this is a bit different)

    Is it really that un-commen to find a guy who is in relationships for more than sex and sexual things?...I Love to treat women with respect, and from what I hear, this is prety much unheard of by females...

    Yep. You must be a one in a million guy because every guy I've met has been a complete jerk.

    The sad, sad truth is yes...it is pretty rare to find a guy who is in it for more...who treats a woman with respect....and it's a damn shame. The hopeless romantics that are still out there are usually missed or foolishly tossed aside.....that's the world we live in today...... I love to hear there are some out there yet though.....there's two more, making my list about 4. *shrugs*

    I am a much too hopeless romantic...

    You do not have any idea...

    and will probably never have...

    All I dream of is to love, and be loved, and to live happily with my love...

    Everything else will be allright:)

    ""I love seeing the smile on a girls face when I treat her with respect.""

    I know exactly what you mean...there is nothing better than making a girl smile by saying something nice, or just by actually listening to what she has to say......and it is not even hard!..I do not know why some guys say it takes a lot of work being a good boyfriend...maybe it just comes natural to some...and the same way you wonder why all of the "good" ones live far awy, I wonder why all of the girls who actually respect guys back, do not live near me...

    Males are bastards, live up to the fact steve.

    Just by this post i can't help but think 'suck up' 'liar' 'womaniser'

    Even if you're far from it, that is the kind of doubt you'll face in life by being the apparent 'nice guy'

    Bleh, i'm sombre.

    well, in fact i AM far from those...I am not a liar, nor a womanizer...and I am hardly a suck up..... I am merely trying to get some feedback on my question...and, I might be a "nice guy" but it seems I am better off being that, than the bastard you put off to be...

    guys that care are not hard to find. just need to know where to look. to me, there is nothing greater to see then the girl i like smile, or laugh because of my efforts. that in itself is its own reward. sex has just become the predominat sign of a "good" relationship. the good old days of acually caring and loving are gone. so yeah, there are a few guys left that are caring, compassionate, w.e. but guys like that are out there, id consider myself one of them. the bottom line is our world has become corrupt...its hard to find the right person who loves you for who you are, and not what u can do for them

    Its Called the: Natural Selection; or the Survival of the Fittest... hopeless Romantics are a dying breed because they tend to be more predictable, shy, they tend to wait for love to happen rather then going and getting the girl. I am not talking about getting laid or one night stands, just making the move. Women like to be respected and to be equal, but they also like to be with someone when it comes to it, will protect them and bring home the bread instead of writing a love letter on how love will feed the hunger… Love and romance are great but it doesn’t feed the kids or the wife. The more independent women become the less room there is for hopeless romantics... I hear all the time why do women like bad boys, its not bad boys they like it’s the ones that are exciting and take risks. Don’t be a hopeless romantic be a gentleman there is a big difference... Lloyd Dobler (“Say anything” probably way before most of you guys time) despite contrary belief was not a hopeless romantic he was a gentleman. Gentleman always gets the girl!! Just my 2 cents on the subject. And on the last note no matter what a guy say, if it’s a choice between anything and sex, he will always choose sex, it’s in our nature

    hmmm...good point guy...I see where you make sense,and as for me,I prety much am shy...I do not really know how to respond to you, except that you are right...and although I am a hopeless romantic, I have yet to find a girl (at this age) who is looking for somone to feed their kids..ha ha ha... I only endulge in the romantic stuff because it is fun at this age..I am way more than sure that when I grow up, I will become more of a gentleman (in your terms) then just a romantic shy-guy...but seeing as how 17 year olds are prety much in it for some experience, rather than a life partner, I am fine where I stand...

    correct?

  • LAST RONIN
    19 years ago

    You are correct Steve.. but its never to early to be a Gentleman.. and one thing on the shy thing.. whats the worst thing that could happen my friend.. you get turned down.. over 51% of the population in the world is women so you have another good 2 billion girls you got left.. so chances are you will get shut down by a few here and there..

  • None
    19 years ago

    well, I have never been turned down...not to sound conceded,but the girls I have asked out, liked me too, so they said yes when I asked them...and it is not from being turned down that I became highly shy, it is from the lack of attention I have gotten form the "bad apples" I have dated...it makes me doubt a few things....1st being my looks...2nd being my personality....and the 3rd being how people in general view me as a person....I do nto really have the self esteem I would like, so I tend to be really shy...and I hate that...

  • LAST RONIN
    19 years ago

    a few things steve.. 1 women are not as much conerned as look as you think they are so don't worry about that one..2 personality... you write poetry so you an artistic person and chicks dig that, turst me on this one anything that has to do with art works great (Majored in photoraphy) trust me on this one. 3) don't worry about what everybody else think.. what matters is what you think of yourself forget eveyone else...

    Steeeeve, I know how shyness feels...try your hardest to not start doubting yourself....most esp if you didn't feel that way before (if you were fine with your looks and personality before). And how people in general view you...you just have to get your mind away from that because it does no good worrying about that stuff...it wastes time....just try to be happy with yourself the way you are (get that self-esteem back up) because from where I'm standing shyness sucks....I mean I wouldn't mind a shy guy, but in my personal experience shyness has not helped me one bit....I think girls want a guy who's more sure of himself (w/o getting cocky)..... remember like back when you were 4 years old and life was simple?? i don't.

    And LAST RONIN was right about that stuff for the most part at least....and I think an artistic guy would be great, but i guess deep down woman want a man who'll be dependable...and want to feel safe and have a strong, reliable man by there side....for the future....but you are only a teenager.....*shrugs*

    and what about shyness in the girl? how does that work? does annnny guy like shyness in a girl?

  • undying blusher
    19 years ago

    that ^ would make you think she's embarrassed of the guy or something...that would hurt....so some amount of self-esteem needed....darn.

    thanks Aaron.

    19 years ago

    well..I am sorry,I do not post as much as you guys do, so I miss out on some stuff you guys said, and I think it is a little too late to comment back, but....

    I think you guys mis-understood me when I said I was worried how people view me...I do not care HOW they view me, it is just that I want to know why they view me that way... get it?

    I remember someone above me asking is shy girls are okay?....well, to me, I would love one..seeing as how I am somewhat shy myself, but when the girl is shy, I get a wierd.....switch in personality....when I dated a shy girl, for some reason I was not shy anymore, and I neve got why that was...but I wasall of a sudden talkative and laughing out loud..it was wierd yet splendid...

    oh and back to how other people see me....that might be an issue, what if my "girlfriend...(hypothetically speaking) was to hear from her friends who did not know me well, that I was a psycho?....then that would not go so well would it?... so I sometimes get concerned on exactly how they view me...but other than that, I could care less on what people think of me...

    I hope I am making sense and not just rambling on.
