What do you think of women?

[firehill]

Do men really compare a woman of romantic interest to their mother? Is this true?

No

You are kidding me!!??

I heard this stated as fact on a tv program and it made me feel squeamish to the say the least!!

I'm with you! Where do they get these ideas from?

Again, I do not wish to hi-jack this thread.

What I heard is that men tend to treat their wife as they do their mother. Men. . . do you treat your wife the same way you treated your mother?

Men generally do not compare their wives to their mothers, nor do they marry women like their mother. Men do sometimes compare things their wives do to the way their mothers did the same things. For example, my mother couldn't cook to save her life, but my wife is one awesome cook, and I sometimes comment on that. My mother always doted on my father, my wife...well, let's say they aren't the same in this case either. I have learned not to comment on that.

Men do treat their wives the way they treat their mothers. I guess it depends on how they were raised and what kind of example their father's set for their sons.

With respect, yes.

The rest no. I kiss my mom with love, but I REALLY KISS my Love! If you get what i mean.

What may answer your question is that guys have no one else but their mothers to compare the traits they love in women. Thats why mothers should set a good example as well as fathers.

We (men and women) look to our mothers and fathers for the example of what to be. Yeah we might compare skills. But then we also have prov 31 to compare a woman to too.

That couldn't hurt either. (as long as you mean that figuratively, of course)

Mom didn't raise no dummy, here. I got that figured out, too! But, I hasten to add; it is an extreme pleasure to do, as I receive back from my wife so much more.

all women and girls are pretty in many different ways. You would be really surprised at how attractive someone can become the longer you know them and start to see them for who they really are. The flip side of course is how ugly some of those pretty girls who don't like nice guys really are when you see them on the inside.

Peace.

Don't I know it. They're still mysterious and have those womanly ways that I wish I could marry.

But they're all "just friends" and they marry jerks who order them around, then whine to me about it because they know I will listen. I cut most of them off because I just can't take it anymore.

Sorry guys, I just have to jump in here.

I read this and my heart drops. We're not all that way. I know myself, I long to have a man that lifts me up and plays the role of the knight in shining armour. The "jerks" have no draw for me at all. I found a man like you describe yourself as and I will cherish him always.

I really do not understand women these days. They seem to cut off their nose to spite their face. I have a friend that tells me the same thing you're telling me about women and I just cannot hardly comprehend it.

I am sorry that you feel this way, but please know, there are a few left that are not like as you have run into.

Mom - Yes Ma'am

Wife - Wahooooooooooooo!

"Therefore shall a man leave his father and his mother, and shall cleave unto his wife: and they shall be one flesh." Genesis 2:24)

Wahhhhhhh.....

"Let thy fountain be blessed: and rejoice with the wife of thy youth." (Proverbs 5:18)

Hoooooooooo!

"Let her be as the loving hind and pleasant roe; let her breasts satisfy thee at all times; and be thou ravished always with her love." (Proverbs 5:19)

Silly sister!

Love, Joe
