is she spoilt?

I think women claim to like the 'thoughtful' (wimpy) type of man who will allow themselves to be walked all over but in my experience its not true.

Three good sets of friends of ours divorced, 2 in the past year. All of them had men who provided everything their wives could have wished for, in fact everything that BI described in his post at the top of this thread. Where did it get them? They end up with the wives 'bored'.

In the two most recent divorces, the women are now in 'relationships' with men who treat them like dirt, treatment they would never have accepted from their former husbands.

I've been married for 27 years and although I don't treat my wife like that I also don't allow myself to be walked over. There should be some equality in all relationships otherwise it won't work.

Forget what women tell you they want, the reality is different.

Good post.

thats good news mate.

remember the hormones will never get back to pre baby levels and they will spend the rest of their lives worrying and stressed to a degree.

Plenty of brilliant stuff to enjoy together though.

Depressingly familiar. All too true.

In my youth I used to be a "nice guy" and I can tell you now it doesn't work. Women will use you for what they can get out of you and then throw you onto the scrapheap.

Whilst I was still a bit tender from one ex, I was treating anything that came close to me like carp. It's shocking how well this works. It was the opposite of logical to me (at the time), but thats what women seem to want.

Women like strong men who are unpredicable, not weedy push-overs. If you're still a "nice guy" buying them things, you are doomed to failure.

Schools should teach boys this stuff from an early age.

Not politically correct, my boy.

Plus most primary schools have female heads and all female staff.

Whatever schools do teach boys from an early age, it certainly isn't what you suggest. Probably the opposite.

Sweet. Sounds like sockpuppet is the catch of the day.

Essentially women are like dogs. They love it when you rough them up a bit.

If you do it the courtesy of banging it, and the honour of allowing it to be seen in public with you, Why go to the unnecessary expense of buying it presents.
