No one has ever given me a satisfactory answer as why relationships are more desirable than being single. They talk about love but, can't explain what it is.

I don't hate women. But, I do hate some of the things many women do.

I keep asking because I want to learn and understand. What am I missing out on? Or am I missing out on anything at all? So far, it's seems like I'm not.

It sounds like you're looking for something you're going to agree with. As long as you don't agree, the answers are not going to be satisfactory to you.

im glad you ask yes an yes but really no for the long haul as in the one you feel at home with i dont know about other men but for me attitude is everything in a female it overrides alot of bad things for him an for her in a comfortable relationship .these are hard to find but i do look forward to meeting one i click well with in beliefs as well as habbits an likes an dislikes yes i know there is always some difference in all of these but being able to trust the one your with while she is with anyone whether im there or not an knowing that she feels this way about you an you feel it the same way about her.
ok so just miss having real in life home is where your free to be you an relax when alone .

I don't always want sex.
A BJ every once in a while will suffice.

Oral sex isn't sex?

I'm just going by Bill C's definition of what's not sex.
We Rednecks have ta' stick together.

"IS SEX ALL THAT MEN THINK ABOUT" ?

Not when we are Hungry ...

I laughed my a$$ off when I heard the broadcast of Bill saying he didn't have sex with Monica. It was only a BJ.

God, I still bust a gut.

There's also sports.

Any sport with nekkid, I'm all up in dat!!

Sex is just one thing I want, but I happen to be a fan.

Women want sex, too.

YAY !
And we are GLAD you do !

Well, this part of your argument isn't absurd at least. It's gene machine Darwinism and the philosopher Schopenhauer saw the sex drive (or "will to life") as you do. The bit that is absurd is to assume that because you are supposedly happy with your life as it is and have all of the friends and companions that you need the same must be the case with everybody else. The other bit that's silly is where you seem to not understand why some people would prefer to have sex within a "meaningful relationship", rather than just sowing their wild oats all over the place. You said elsewhere that you aren't telling us not to fall in love. Well, people do fall in love all the time and even if it is sexual love there is more to a relationship than just having sex. I personally don't have many friends or much of a social life and I don't actually care about that because I am happy enough if I have my family and a woman that I care about that cares about me. I don't actually want to be with someone that's having sex with other men. I don't want a casual relationship with someone that's going to walk out my door because she has a boyfriend that she would rather be with even if she's coming to me for the sex and going to him for the relationship and I don't want someone that plays one guy off against another. I don't want sloppy seconds and I don't want to get a sexually transmitted disease.

I kinda agree with Tex. I am not taking a woman out a dozen times and not be getting any. If im getting some I might stick around just as long as we get along ok.

You Scoundrel = that's deep and I agree! Apologies for the tangent, but I have pondered this for many moons. Men & women are equal, right? Then why... I digress.

Everyone have a quick read of Why Men Want Sex and Women Need Love by Barbera & Allan Pease. You won't agree with every word, but it'll make you think! I agree with most of the concepts and apologize if I think of you bent over when I first see you. Only after this crappy marriage do I look for more than window-dressing or the promise of of some good, wet lovin. I am a tad-bit wiser now, and do NOT think with the little head too much...

not just sex.we want a woman to cook for us too!

Right on time! It was starting to get all tense up in here. I too would love more insight into the minds of folks. Generally speaking, I am relatively happy, but some good sex and the occasional thrilling conversation would make life near perfect.

I think that people like Tex basically don't want to get emotionally involved and it's as simple as that. He thinks that the sex is the good bit and everything else is just a hassle. Well, it can be a hassle and you can get hurt but even when your girlfriend is giving you grief and being a massive pain that's real passion.

You say that you don't go with hookers because what gets you off is giving women pleasure. Well, you can please a woman in many ways apart from just satisfying her in bed. That doesn't mean that relationships should be all about pandering to them and being a doormat that they can walk all over.
