ok. but what makes you happy?

Reason why I ask is because men see the women's list (such as the ones in the good guy thread). Is that a 'minimum' requirement to keep them happy? or if you hit 80% you're happy? Some might fall 'out of love' when suddenly the guy drops to 75%?
Did you read my post in that thread? Pretty much the whole list means someone who accepts the strangeness that is me and doesn't want to change me. In return I will accept them as they are and not try to change them.

Dump them gold-diggers and do not give them your chocolates.
Well, they might not even care since they're gold-diggers not chocolate diggers!

OK my mistake, I did not read the full list. I normally start getting mild seizures after reading point 6 out of 20 and by list number 10 I feel like I'm a size of a thumb. I will look at the thread again.

I have another question Jo....if you say you'll accept them as they are (or women in general) and will not change them...my question would be why would you? He has fulfilled your list. Why would you change that? My question was that some women's list are too long, that mortal earthlings wouldn't be able to meet 10% of them. This is what prompted my original question. If you were to have a list of a 100...and an average Joe out there happened to hit 80% mark (which supposedly pretty decent). Will most women think that they're settling with him or they're holding out for 99%?

Maybe I should create a dark beer thread instead

I have seen people meet and marry people and then even though they fit the criteria at the time start a "perfection". A relationship is give and take. I don't know how else to explain it. Read the list...http://advice.eharmony.com/boards/da...tml#post785841 (ladies: what kind of a man are you looking for?)
