It's all about the sneeze. If I'm talking to a hot and interesting girl, and she sneezes like an 83-year old smoker, I'm out of there. The perfect feminine sneeze should be a quiet 'apitchoo'.

"I dislike anyone who posts on this board."

Would this mean that you dislike yourself, along with the rest of us??

pessimism
sarcasm
cynicism
fat chicks

also, I left my home country because I'm sick of people who don't know anything outside their own home city, who think their way of life is the only way of life, and who have no curiosity about the world... i'm not looking for that kind of girl... and here I am in KOREA

Guys that turn ME off are those that assume that if a lot of girls like them,then EVERY girl is OBLIGATED to like them.This is the type of guy who will like a girl,but not give her any indication because he assumes arrogantly that she HAS to make the first move.If she doesn't,then she's a bitch with no inner beauty!

Yes, that's a complete turn off. I dont often meet guys who assume that I should like them. However, I do often meet guys who are afraid to make the first move. There is nothing that impresses me about that kind of guy. I like in your face kind of courage, even if he gets turned down... what's there to lose? A bit of pride? I never make the first move, and I always advise other girls against it. You don't want to remember it that way when you're old and married, and that kind of passive man ends up being pretty dull anyways.

You're absolutely right,Pollyplummer,this type of passive guy usually does end up either dull,or just not a "go-getter"! A guy like that was interested in me once.I found out that he liked me from my sister,because he just was too proud to make the first move.At that time I was too busy,stressed out and preoccupied to be interested in anyone.Whenever we talked,his expression would turn blase and blank the second I'd become thoughtful or lose interest. I didn't feel any warmth from him,which did not at all pique my interest.It just didn't appear like he liked me! And he was like that in other ways:not a hard worker or serious about any hobbies,except chasing girls! And it's true with regard to 1st moves from girls---if a guy doesn't like you,it will simply not work out!

Ah, the traditional 'man must make first move' thing. . .what happened to feminism, ladies? Why don't you take a chance at rejection sometime? Another example of wanting your cake and eating it too: we want to be equal, but you men should do all the hard work.

My wife asked me to marry her, albeit I made it quite clear I was interested. She asked me to marry her because I'm an educated literate man, active, hard working, and fairly handsome. It's true I've gained a few pounds since marriage, but I'm working on that. I also quit smoking. I put in 65 hours a week. My hobbies these days are playing with my kid, studying things Korean, and finding the best camping spots in Korea. I can't respect a woman who expects the man to initiate all emotional or physical relations, who won't take a chance on expressing themselves and their feelings, and that's how my wife (and I) won.

But then in your mind, I'm probably just being egotistical and arrogant.

This reminds me of a recent conversation I had with a forum member, about someone in the same city as me. I "made a first move", came right out and told someone I liked her and cared for her...and she ran for the hills.

Guess I was ugly. Crying or Very sad Laughing

Weird, because I had been getting very positive vibes from her for several weeks. As a guy, I was not impressed. I want a woman who respects honesty and openness from a man, not runs from it.

Quite frankly, when I saw her reaction, she dropped several notches in my esteem meter, and I lost all interest in her. Now she's dropping hints she wants to hang out again.

There are, however, plenty of fish in the sea. Very Happy

So the lesson, boys and girls, is...if someone has the courage to come right out and tell you they care for you...appreciate it. Even if you don't reciprocate the feelings.

Who knows, the shoe might be on the other foot some day. Do onto others as you would have them do onto you.

What do you mean "What about feminism?" Feminists spout a load of bullsh*t and for the most part, their agenda is not equality but rather superiority and special treatment. Their platform is also used as a vehicle for a host of other extremist issues. If a man has interest in a girl, he is a coward to hint around about it and not come forth and say something. I hate it when guys hint around that they'd like to hang out or whatever and then wait for the girl to ask him. I don't care what people say, I want leadership from him. He's stronger, he's built differently, he was made to lead. If he's not those things, then he's not getting any interest from me.

BS-spouting feminists whose main agenda is superiority & special treatment...

Wow. Daechidong Waygookin couldn't have said it better. Or louder. Forget my own views on the subject, I'm just amazed I'm reading this from a girl on Dave's. (unless it's one hell of a troll job, which I seriously doubt)

Now I think I'll just sit back and see if the girl-gang responds to your post as they would were it from DW, or whether they'll extend you a little of that "special treatment" you mention.

You are totally proving my point, thank you. By sitting back and demanding that the man 'be the man', you are demanding special treatment. Oh, I'm just a girl, you be all manly and leaderlike and tell me what to do. . .Get off your ass and show some initiative. Don't be afraid to be a woman. Don't be afraid to love and show it. Grow up.

At least we've all come to expect that kind of crap from DW and most of us know better than to bother trying to change his mind ... It sounds like Pollyplummer and Manner of Speaking want to hold up rapists and sexual harassers as male role models. Anyone over 15 (male or female) should know that unwanted advances are not OK, they are boundary violations, and they are part of a continuum that includes criminal acts at one end.

Oh, that must have been me. It's OK, you weren't my type either.
