27 Characteristics of Loving Men

Before you scroll down to read on about the 27 characteristics, let me tell you about how I came across this article in a re-post by a friend on Facebook. It said "Must Read"...I think it should be pegged "Must Get Back to Reality"! I re-posted it again but this time with a simple message for everyone out there not to hold their breathes. You will never find a "perfect" guy, maybe a guy with more than a few of the characteristics but not more. I dare anyone to show me a guy that has all or even 25/27 of whats listed here!!!

 

27 CHARACTERISTICS­ OF LOVING MEN (Must read)

1. Always calls you to find out how you day is going.
-Umm, NEVER! If you do get a call it probably because you have been quiet for awhile and he is wondering if you are alive. Or, he pissed you off earlier in the day and he is trying to be nice now!

2. Will feel terrible when he forgets your birthday or anniversary and will always make it up to you.
-To err is to be human, to forget occasions is to be men...its just the way nature intended. And of course a "make up is expected...the woman probably already threw a hissy!
 

3. Surprises you with gifts, even when the occasion is not special.

-Yes it can happen, once in awhile. But then, I'd be suspicious if I were you. If it didn't happen from the start and its happening now-Honey, give the gift back and start to eyeball him seriously!

4. Tells you regularly that he loves you.
-It's the least he can do!

5. Knows how to make love to you.
-To each his own. He may be skilled but teeny, he could be hung but boring, he could be...the list goes on.

6. Knows how to caress, hug, kiss and fulfill your heart’s romantic desires.
-No...men rarely have a touchy feely thing going! They like to be caressed, hugged and kissed but they will never do it on auto mode no?

7. Feels your pain when you go through hard times.
-Men will never understand what period cramps are about. Let me try illustrate: Imagine resting your balls on a sidewalk and having people walk up and down over it? Yeah, that happening in your tummy...Oh while your losing blood and sitting in a heatbox!

8. Loves to see you happy and rejoices with you.
-Of course when we're happy they are happy! It means their out of trouble and may get laid tonight!

9. Always makes quality time to spend with you.
-Ladies, DECIDE: $ or time? If he has too much time to spend with you, start worrying that he may not have enough $ to spend on you. Works vice versa too, unless you marry a rich retiree...

10. Will never physically or emotionally abuse you.
- Sometimes words cut deeper than any punch

11. Will marry you without waiting too long.
-This is where my stomach cramps from laughing so hard. Whats long and whats not? 6weeks/months/years? A wait is still a wait and if there is a rush, I'm going to wonder why!

12. Will forgive and forget when you apologize for hurting his feelings.
-Yes he probably expects the same from you but women NEVER FORGET!

13. Will not use your weaknesses or secrets against you.

-No but who are they going to tell anyways?

 

14. Will not air your dirty laundry.
-Will NOT air laundry!!! (Of any kind! Period!) 

15. Is patient and willing to work on your relationship problems.

-Do they have a choice then?

16. Knows that it is important for you to spend time with your friends and family members.
-It's a chance for them to enjoy some peace and quiet...trust me its important for the man too

  
17. Will not cheat on you.

18. Will not flirt with your girlfriends to the point of annoying you.

-If it gets to that point, then I don't know why your wasting your time!

19. Will not go out of his way to make you jealous.

20. Will always respect you in the presence of his friends and family members.
-Yes, because he expects the same from you!

21. Always helps you with chores around the house.
 -Always is not a good word to use...this should come after begging, throwing a tantrum and the silent treatment

 
22. Enjoys the company of your family and friends.
-You really want your man to sit through your girly gossip sessions and awkward "When you getting married?" family get togethers?

23. Supports your dreams and ambitions.
-Most important! Try to reciprocate?

24. Never puts you down when talking to you.
-They are men, aren't women just supposed to keep her opinions mostly to herself? Eye Candy...that's the word.

25. Cares a great deal about your thoughts, feelings and opinions.
-This sounds like another woman?

26. Is always available to help when you need him.
-To throw the trash, to fix something and only after a few reminders?

27. Knows that his way is not the only way.

Ok so before I sign off, I hope whoever reads this has a sense of humor and doesn't read into it too much. This is a PMS-y post and I had 2 hours to kill!!! That said, I'm lucky enough to have a guy with a few of the qualities...and maybe I also rule with an iron fist. (I know, no one is going to want to marry me...Heard it before!)
