Please, we don't bite (unless you want us to). Talk to us - we can handle reality. We can handle deep conversations, even if they ramble every which way. We're not stupid. There's no need to go moaning to your friends about us or to ask people people we have in common as friends about us - just talk to US.

Yeah that, but not in the middle of the Cup Final.

That we love boobies! We don't care if you don't like your own, we love them, regardless!

When we look at another woman, honestly, we can't help it! It happens inadvertently... doesn't mean we don't like you!

Games and "tests" of our character are not as subtle as you may think. Nor are they as acceptabale. You may find us passable afterward, but we will resent you and quite possibly hate you afterward.

We are just as sensative about our appearance as you are yours. Be careful about being offended if we remark on anothers beauty only to turn around and talk about how hot some paragon of manhood is.

Had to split this up as my phone likes to eat posts...

Not all of us are into a specifically sized woman. Most of us see beauty all around us.

When we say you are beautiful, especially when it is unprompted, you should believe it. Most of us are sincere in that sentiment

All women are beautiful to someone. If I did not think you were I would be elsewhere. When I say your are sexy, believe it.

What kind of games or tests of character are you referring to? And why would that make you hate someone?

If someone trys to test my character... I say bring it on. I don't have any fear regarding things like that. I certainly wouldn't resent someone for them wanting to make sure they are with a good person, especially if there was a possibility of having children.

I'm thinking here, but it seems to be a trust issue. Some people have to keep dragging up stupid stuff others did, no matter how many years ago. I'm one who has made a few blunders, got passed them, and want them buried in the past. I want to move on and keep doing better. Every time something is brought up, for any reason at all, I feel like I'm having to start all over again and it gets discouraging as hell.

This is definitely something that both genders do. My BF has a crazy good memory, and it tends to cause him to hold on to things long after my goldfish-brain has forgotten them. It gets tiresome in a fight, that's for sure.

LOL! Yeah, I know EXACTLY what you are talking about here. My wife is the same with her ability to remember and then HOLD onto things that happened a while ago that I had totally had forgotten about. Which probably suggests that to me, it was no big deal but to her, it was important enough to remember.

There are really two directions I can think of with this. The first one if we have never, ever talked about a particular topic that upsets/angers/etc you (for whatever reason) and you see that I am about to engage in that activity or situation, please stop me or talk to me about it. Give me the chance to make a choice about what I know about you... not what I don't. Don't sit back and watch what I do, then hold it against me. (had several past girlfriends punish me for things I had no clue were... annoyances).

The other more obvious one. Saying something is OK for me to do. For example if you don't want to go out but I do, If you say I should go out, don't hold it against me later. We won't see it for a challenge (despite the internet meme that floats around warning us).

I understand what you mean about accepting tests of your character. In many ways I do not believe I have been tested (not in any meaningful way). I like others have stumbled in my past, but we try to be the best we can be. That best is only attainable if our partners, hell even our friends help us along the way.

Forgot to say, the resentment and hate comes from those challenges where the woman in question is expecting failure.

Why is it you can't remember your cell phone number but you remember the woman who gave me a hug 35 years ago?When I tell you I love you why do you question it after all these years?
