.......things like:

-Men will only change for the worse after moving in together or getting married (and the woman will not change for the worse). Of course, she comes to the relationship much more civilized and responsible than the man.

-Women rule the world.

-It is man's job to be the major breadwinner, do 1/2 the chores, and fix/update the house, and still have the time/energy to be romantic.....because I bear his children.

-Let me always be right, and everything will be much easier

You are sounding pretty bitter mate! Sounds like you have been dealt a raw deal!
I dont think those statements are true...I think that both men and women become more difficult when they move in together because you are in a completely new situation with minimal privacy.
In this day and age do you really still believe that it is the mans job to be the primary breadwinner??? And I have yet to find a man who will do half the housework!!!!!! LOL
My man says there are pink jobs and blue jobs... unfortunately the blue jobs like watching footy and drinking are more fun than changing nappies and doing dishes!!! LOL


Things are easier when you let us believe we are right..... we do it for you all the time!!!!!

Hey I hope your views on women and relationships get a little better and hope you work through whatever has gotten you down and put you off relationships....
Forget about expectations and stereotypes just remember the importance of communication, honesty, and respect!!!

I don't know about other women, but I'll tell you what I think.

1.) men will only...: People change as they grow older and it doesn't have to be positive or negative. Sometimes one person in a relationship changes so much that the other person doesn't feel like they are with the same person they started dating or married, and that may be why it is thought people change in negative ways.
I don't necessarily think women come into a relationship more civilized and responsible. I've met some very responsible/civilized men, and some doozies of women.

2.) Of course women rule the world! hahaah just kidding.
I think nature rules the world. Think about all the natural disasters that happen and ruin lives. People, men and women, cope with nature.

3.) It's not the man's job to be the major breadwinner, necessarily, but I think both people should do 1/2 of the chores out of fairness. If a guy is good at fixing/updating the house, then heck yeah he should do it, if not, stay away!
Guys should always try to be romantic, and it has nothing to do with bearing children, it just makes for a better love life.

4.) Personally for me, it's always easier if I'm right, because I usually am, but when I'm wrong (which is rarely) I do admit it....

Here's my opinion on your statements:
1) Most men will not change for the worse after moving in or marriage. If anything, they only get better. And women do change over time (like everyone else), some for the better, some for the worse.
2) Women do not rule the world. I wish that was the case. Just kidding! :)
3) I'm old fashion, so I believe most of this one, except for the part where it's because I bear his children. I think it's because it's the stereotype of a husband.
4) If I'm wrong, then I'm wrong. I'll admit to it. Plus, what fun is a relationship if the man always agrees with the woman and does as she says. I like a man who'll speak his mind.

I think...

1) That people change period for the good or bad, and no it has nothing to do with being more civilized or responsible

2) No women don't rule the world (we make the world) lol if we did there would be no wars/poverty....they say behind every strong man there is a strong woman they need to let us take the lead. (Hillary Clinton)

3) No it is not the job of the man to be the major breadwinner (but it would be nice) I believe that i was born to be a wife and mother and that i shouldn't have to work out side of the home. I would rather that my job be to take care of the family and my HUSBAND bring home the bacon. (I would cook in clean hand my man a pen to write the check to pay all the bills WOO...WOO...WOO...LOL
When I'm happy we are all happy there will be no end to the the romance.

4) Yes i am always right...LOL No seriously there is always compromise in a relationship I always try to understand his side that is if it makes any sense and it usually doesn't LOL BUT THINGS WILL ALWAYS GO MUCH SMOOTHER WHEN I'M RIGHT!!

WHEN U TRULY LOVE SOMEONE IT ALL WORKS!! OUT!!

These statements do not work for me!

1. Yes people "change" when you live together or get married, but it's not changing you are showing your true colors. Not always a bad thing, men or women. It's equal! Also I disagree that if you get married you can then try to change the other person. NO, you need to accept them for who they are, that's why you married them. No one is perfect. And as life goes on, things change and as a couple you both have to adapt to lifes changes togther.

2. Women don't rule the world, they want equality. Compared to the 1950's women catered to the men's needs, now women are more independent.

3. It's BOTH partner's job to work and do 1/2 the chores. Of course unless they have an agreement. My husband cooks and I wash the dishes. He fixes the car and I fix the toilet other household items. My husband works and so do I and we both clean the house together. We have a nice mutual relationship.

4. I'm not always right. My husband and I make have different opinions. Instead of arguing who is right, we try to find a common ground and work on a compromise we can both live with, unless it violates our basic human rights.

Men don't change....and women who think they can conform a man to what they want are in fantasy land...
Women do not rule the world...if that were true, we would have had a female in the oval office by now
It is NOT a man's job to be the major breadwinner, do half the chores, etc......relationships are equal partnerships. Some days one will do more than the other but it eventually balances out
Being right isn't always the best way to go....compromise makes you think

-I think that both men and woman change after marriage. They both take each other for granted.

-I think to rule the rule you need both men and woman.

-If both help them alot of things get done alot faster and whocares who the bread winner is just as long as it is being won.

-men and woman get to the point were if you let them be right it would easier.

NOT....people are who they are...you accept them and love them for who they are
If the love is there it will always be both working together on everything

maybe after move in together you relax and let yerself be who you really are, but you should be that anyways


be cool...

UNFAIR.....


its unfair that ....
that i love you so madly ,
while you don`t know....
and to missed you so much,,,
while you didn`t feel that ...
and to tell all the world about you ,,
while you didn`t hear that ....
and to write all my poems to you ,,,
while you didn`t read them ....
and to be so jealous about you ,,,
while you didn`t realize that ....
and to wait you all the time,,,
while you didn`t come yet to me....
yes ,,,
unfair that what you do...
