Make your SO happy

[Romance]

Just came across this...very likely that has been posted before, but I thought it doesn't hurt to hear the truth more than once...

It's really not that difficult to make a woman happy.

A man only needs to be:

1. a friend
2. a companion
3. a lover
4. a brother
5. a father
6. a master
7. a chef
8. an electrician
9. a carpenter
10. a plumber
11. a mechanic
12. a decorator
13. a stylist
14. a sexologist
15. a gynecologist
16. a psychologist
17. a pest exterminator
18. a psychiatrist
19. a healer
20. a good listener
21. an organizer
22. a good father
23. very clean
24. sympathetic
25. athletic
26. warm
27. attentive
28. gallant
29. intelligent
30. funny
31. creative
32. tender
33. strong
34. understanding
35. tolerant
36. prudent
37. ambitious
38. capable
39. courageous
40. determined
41. true
42. dependable
43. passionate
44. compassionate

WITHOUT FORGETTING TO:

45. give her compliments regularly
46. love shopping
47. be honest
48. be very rich
49. not stress her out
50. not look at other girls

AND AT THE SAME TIME, YOU MUST ALSO:

51. give her lots of attention, but expect little yourself
52. give her lots of time, especially time for herself
53. give her lots of space, never worrying about where she goes

IT IS VERY IMPORTANT:

54. Never to forget:
* birthdays
* anniversaries
* arrangements she makes

HOW TO MAKE A MAN HAPPY

True, very true!!!!

 

[Zachy]

wow that is a long list. Who wrote that list? Princess Diana?

 

[Art Mann]

Too long? No problem

Too long? No problem

wow that is a long list. Who wrote that list? Princess Diana?

I'll bring the alchohol.

Now all she has to do is show up naked.

 

[Cycleguy007]

I'll bring the alchohol.

Now all she has to do is show up naked.

And bring a cute sexy friend?

(Hey its a way shorter list than hers... :tongue

 

[tboy]

I've known a couple of women who don't need all of those, but for the most part, that list is true....(unfortunately)....

One thing that IS missing though is;

16B) Mindreader

I was talking with a customer of mine the other day and he was talking about the current spat he and his gf were having and a lightbulb went on in my head. He was talking about how his GF was upset with him because he wasn't overjoyed to be going to her family's at christmas or Xmas Eve or something like that but he was still going.

It dawned on me that I've run into this SO many times with women where they ask you to do something, and even if you're not happy about doing it, you do it because you love them yet that isn't good enough. They want, no expect, you to be thrilled to death to do it. For eg: I had one that was all pissy at me because I wasn't happy about having to help her move, yet again! (twice in 3 months), and another time about taking her to watch a chick flick, etc.

See, the difference between men and women is: if you say you'll help your buddy move, he doesn't give a rat's ass if you're happy about it, he's just thankful that you're helping. He's just happy to get his shit out of the one place and into the other with minimal damage. Same as just about anything else a buddy asks you to do. Like being a wingman. We may not want to do it but we'll do it.

Too bad (some) women can't be satisfied by the simple fact that we're doing what they asked without all the drama?

 

[RAWD]

So true, tboy.

But we love them anyways in spite of all that. And we'd happily spend our lives trying to make them happy. Right?

 

[IFUSEEKAMY]

Hahaha so why do I get the feeling especially from the other posts on this board that to make a man truly happy a woman needs to do more than just be naked? :tongue: Oh and serve alcohol.

 

[RAWD]

Not much more. Cook, golf and maybe be slightly bisexual?

btw, thanks for the GIF, Amy. A pervy smile on an otherwise crappy weekend. :he:

 

[tboy]

So true, tboy.

Actually, all my adult life I tried and more often than not, failed miserably. Therefore no, I no longer would happily spend my life trying to make them happy. Instead I'm spending the rest of my life making ME happy......I realized long ago that a great relationship is formed by two people who can and do make themselves happy and then they share that happiness with each other.....I stay away, no, RUN away from women who openly state: looking for someone to make me happy (this means that the second they're unhappy, it's my fault....)

For eg: I was dating this woman. She lived in Quebec so we'd see each other about once a month. She calls me up one day (after a couple of months) and says she doesn't want to see me anymore because she's unhappy. I said "wait, I thought everything was good? you seemed really happy the last time we were together"? No, it was me and she's done. Ok..whatever.

She calls me up about 6 weeks later and said "I was still unhappy after we broke up, I just quit my job and THAT was what was making me unhappy, do you want to get together next weekend"??? Ummm no thanks.......I said. "why NOT"??? I said "because the next time you're unhappy, or angry, or whatever, you'll just blame it on me again and I want no part of THAT thank you very much. I wish you the best" and hung up.....

 

[RAWD]

True. I've learned that the best relationships work because each person desires to make the other happy.

Now where's my scotch......

Hahah damn, does minigolf count?
and you're most welcome. I think a lot of people are gonna be upset when I change it next week

Very very true. If each person in the relationship puts the other person's dreams, needs, and desires ahead of their own, then both people are taken care of.

 

[Romance]

I think a lot of people are gonna be upset when I change it next week

you bet; unless you put 3 girls up...:bad:

 

[RAWD]

Hahah damn, does minigolf count?

Close enough. Bring a friend.

Sorry dear, but that sounds a LOT like co-dependency........so, not to pervert what you're saying, but the gist of this should be, say at christmas when your S.O. buys you a rolex watch, you should take it back and get her a rolex? Then she'd take it back and get you your rolex back...and so on and so on and so on....

Yeah, that'll work.....NOT lol.....

Edit: I just want to add (thought of this while I was waiting for my system to reboot) what IME happens in the above described situation is your SO soon comes to expect you to be this way, always. Then the second, the VERY second you miss something, this could be due to illness, work load, other things on your mind, WWIII happens and she won't return your calls, and when you do finally get together you get 2 weeks of irritating little sighs, noises and you can forget about sex......you might as well donate your dick to science because you certainly won't be needing it for the next few months/years......

BTW: this something that you miss could be: the second month anniversary of when you first went to timmie's for coffee, could be you bought a C cup instead of a B, could be the 10th anniversary of when your GF's second cousin twice removed bought their puppy....whatever.

 

[RAWD]

Co-dependence is brutal. I've lived it and it nearly killed me.

Melody Beattie's book, Co-Dependent No More, is a godsend. Alas, I'm a work-in-progress.

I yearn for a healthy balance of mutual respect and desire for happiness. I know it exists.

(OK, tboy, burst my bubble.)

 

[tboy]

You're yearning for a healthy balance between making yourself, and your SO happy is I think what we all desire......and that is pretty hard to find (which is why so many are single these days!)

I seriously think people have unreasonable expectations in a partner.....

 

[RAWD]

Yeah, but I won't quit either. I guess I'm doomed to a life of pursuit.

 

[Cycleguy007]

Co-dependency? LOL :???:

Really, what's wrong with doing favours for each other just for the sake of being nice?

Someone burned you but good tboy... (perhaps more than one...) :shock:

 

[RAWD]

It's a fine line between love and co-dependancy, my two-wheeled friend.

It always takes more than one person. Someone to take advantage of you, and for you to cede control of your own life.
