my husband told me men try to impress women when they first meet them to think they are great and when they get together they don't have to impress them anymore - and then women get upset at the man because he is not the same person they knew when they first met them and now they are really themselves what do you think?

I think a great many men do attempt to present themselves in the best possible light when they first meet. The same can be said with their feminine counterpart (just look at the multi-million collar industry that is cosmetics and push up bras). Part of this is lack of confidence and part of this is unreal expectations on both sides of the equation. Is this a good thing or a bad thing? No clue. How many women would go out with a man who admits to being a slob and addicted to midget wrestling? How many men would go out with a woman who admits to baby-talking their kitten/puppy or that they cry every time they get stressed? My thoughts are this, both sides are playing the game to some degree. The key is get passed the defenses before you start planning your wedding, dating is an important step most people rush. Find out if she can handle him leaving his whiskers in the sink and his underwear on the floor, and if he can handle the fact she desires to put 12 kinds of bubble bath in the bathroom and like lace frilly things on the bed skirt.

I think both genders are the same thing it is not just men. Women do it also. People do it to each other all the time. Don't you try to impress someone whether it be a women friend, co worker, etc..

Duhhhhhhhh!
How much interest would you have in a man who, when you met him for the first time, told you he was stupid, lazy and inconsiderate? Male peacocks spread their tail feathers, male elk bugle, male lions roar. Male humans talk about their high-class jobs, their fast automobiles, their extraordinary skill sets, their plans for the future and, sometimes, the expertise they can bring to the bedroom.
Women do it too. How much time would you spend on your clothes and makeup if you were single and going out on a Saturday night? How much if you were married and he was coming home to dinner on a Tuesday?

not completely true yes we go above and beyond when we first meet but what kills everything is complacency we get accustomed to being with that person everyday and it seems like family, we are always our selves we just get comfortable, shake stuff up a little make it a little diffrent and we will come back to what we started out to be real fast basically keep us on our toes and we won't get complaisant

Sure he's right, -- how many times have your gotten gussied up,
with that low-cut blouse, high-heels, and tight fitting jeans just to
"hang" around the house with the old man ? Did you ever let loose
of one of those silent but deadlies when you were dating ? -- how
about now ?

It's not a man thing. It's a people thing. We all try to show our best traits and hide our faults with people we are just meeting. When we are comfortable and develop trust in the relationship then some of our desire to guard ourselves and hide our insecurities goes away. Welcome to the world of humans.

of course they do. They try to be the best person they are and then after a while it wears off. They listen attentively to your conversation and complaints and cater to your every whim and they they stop..
