i don't think it's definable beyond wanting someone who is essentially my best friend... but on a lifetime basis.

treated right jag? yes, of course all of us that are single cos we truly know what it means to be treated right. Thats why were single. were all single cos we all want to be treated like ****. *rolls eyes* if we knew how it was to be treated the way we want, then wed still be with the guy, well unless he left us cos HE wasnt happy.. thats never happened to me. People have DIED but i gave up the corpse sex with my ex (the british guy). Some people remain single, but have it figured out. They remain single only because they have yet to find it. so who this thread for? people who go from man to man with no breaks in between? I myself have taken breaks for as long as 4 years.. have YOU done that? |

There are an awful lot of women out there who say they are looking for a man who " treats them right ". But, there are times, I wonder how many of them know what that truly means. Or if there is even an actual definition. Now before you all start thinking this is another " nice guy " thread.... I am not referring to the " bow down and kiss you feet, cater to your every whim, put you on a pedestal " type of treatment. I am referring to the " you are my equal, but I will stand straight and take a stand when I need to " type of thing. How many ladies out there know what it's like to be treated as an equal partner in a relationship? How many feel that being treated " right " only means being treated a little better than the last time? J.A.G., I think this is just another one of those lines that ends up in profiles because people think it's supposed to be there. Much like "looks don't matter" and "it's what's on the inside that counts" and that sort of thing. In most cases, I'd guess these lines are put there entirely reflexively. |

well not everybody wants to write a really lengthy profile. that's sort of just a general catch-all.
we ALL want someone who treats us right - just each individual's concept of 'right' might be different. |

i know what it's like...had it once. Want that again, but it's a rare find

Ya know....
When I posted this question, I asked if women knew what they meant by " treated right ". But the thing is, a lot of men are just as guilty of it. It does apply both ways. |

Other than a couple of dates a few months ago, I haven't been with anyone in almost 5 years. Between my last two relationships, there was no break. That was a mistake on my part. Between the first of the two, and the one before that, there was three years. So yes. I have done that. |

i guess i didn't understand what the thread was asking. i thought you wanted definitions, or explanations, of what 'being treated right' entailed.

The word "right" is subjective per person so what that mean is each person needs to be addressing what it is to them. example: Human respect can be just courtesy given everyone on the streets, I would want a bit more than that in my relationship. |
