we must, and we must take it on as a life project, if we want to get our life goals accomplished, for it affects the outcome of our work, so isn't it fair to say that the better prepared we are physically, which ties into mentally (with proper food) the better we are to take on these aims to change history for the better, any way we can?

Smile and confidence.

Personality, if you can make a woman laugh...........you're a shoe-in.

Dracula I'm sure you have tons of women in your casket. Do women really find you attractive or is it your personality? Can you give me some advise?

This girl rocks!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yep. A good sense of humor is a must.

I find confidence, motivation, and assertiveness attractive. A nice smile and eyes are good too.
Let's face it, it's hard to look at someone romantically if one of their eyes is looking in a different direction like one of those horned lizard thingies. No offense, I've known people who have had eyes like that and some of them are really ****ing cool, but, I would be way too distracted wondering if they were looking at me or not. Kinda like trying to talk to someone wearing sunglasses, it makes my skin crawl cause you can't read the eyes. Eyes are the gateway to the soul and express intent. :P

...who doesn't like a cute butt??
Also, I find a little bit of chest hair to be sexy.
Ruggedly handsome over pretty boy anyday!
Like long hair, great for headbanging and running fingers through.
Sense of humor goes a long way!
Love people who can shoot **** with me without worrying about whether i'll be offended.

And yea...I don't try to change men...I wouldn't want one to try to change me...so why do that to them? If you are unsatisfied enough with a person to try to change their behavior which is what should have drawn you to them in the first place....than you probably shouldn't be with that person.
Pisses me off when I see those snooty women come to my restaurant with their families and order food for there husbands and when the man tries to speak up, the woman argues with them over what they want claiming they know them better than they know themselves, some of those dudes tuck there tail between there legs and take it.
Tell you what, if a man did that to me, he would be knocked out cold on the floor and i would be out the door, lol.
I'm interested in a no assembly required package that thinks for himself and doesn't have mental problems. lol.

Exactly! But I always get the "I love everything about you!" speech for the first three months, after which they decide they need to CHANGE everything about me....

I suppose if I met someone now, she would try to get me to stop writing books....

this is candidly and beautifully said, and Mr. McCool, i'd say that this is an unbiased blog that you can take as a logical answer, bravo. (bows sincerely)

a really big .....







































































wallet !

Sadly true in many cases. I'm still hopeful though.

Someone who knows how to hold up there end of a conversation...I'm afraid to do the ims now because I feel like I have to ask all the questions sometimes

i don't give advice, but mere life experience, of myself and others observed through time, and as we go through time, we only begin to know ourselves, let alone anyone else,.....would you make the same decisions today that you made three years ago? no. i hope not. but maybe it only takes five minutes to realize how much you can learn in two days time. if you step back, there's always a bigger landscape to see, and something to cover the details, so look closely and far away , both, and you'll have a better understanding of where you go from here......and be who you are, and don't be afraid to ask questions, and be curious, ever.
p.s. i'm not dracula. he's been dead for 533 years.

Well, don't you know, that's because most women are life-sucking demons intent on the destruction of man. lol :P

I just find it insulting to try to change someone. That goes with the whole "conforming to titles" thing, trying to portray all the sterotypical bull**** people assume is customary in a relationship.
I like to throw the "rulebook" out the window and do what I want.
As I've said before, flowing naturally is the best way to live. Doing otherwise is a lie, lies cause doubt. Doubt is a form of fear, fear destroys the foundation of the mind.

Many things

Well put Shannon. Take people for who they are and don't try to change them. Thats true love.

The kinds of tool he has!

Get your mind out of the gutter!

Tools...carpenters or mechanics...both kind A + (plus)!

some are content to live life catering to the other, but what's the point in that? it should be best friends, fifty fifty, no "i'm the man, you're the woman" crap. that's a trump card played by the sexes to get what they desire, and it limits the friendship to only grow to certain limits before it's doomed. they say that relationships were stronger back aways, but in truth, they were regulated by one or more parties,(usually the man) and women were afraid to branch out on their own, and for good reason, but i don't need to get into that, for you understand it more than most could fathom, and your strength and wit is what men fear, for they can't get around their own barriers, no matter how intelligent they may be......their insecurities trump themselves into the greatest adventure that they could ever wish for, but the two edge sword is mighty yet.... i council many on here, and some will just never let it go, or let their guard down and show their true strength, and vulnerability, for they are one in the same, where the heart is concerned, reguardless of gender.
