What do you look for in a woman you want to be your wife?

I read a lot of the comments in the other thread and posted a couple of times. (Some truths in there!!haha) made me wonder if men look for similar things? Or are you only after girls who drop their... you know. :)

Only serious replies pls

Taller than 5'8" with thin ankles and wrists. That's good enough to get a shot at an athletic kid whether she's athletic or not.

-Cup the pelotas. Get weird.

-Have interests...

-Leave me alone enough to spend time on mine.

Biggest: Not drag us down to the level of mutual co-dependent losers as we age.

Not too unicorn, eh? 🦄

Cake had it down in their song:

I want a girl with a mind like a diamond

I want a girl who knows what's best

I want a girl with shoes that cut

And eyes that burn like cigarettes

I want a girl with the right allocations

Who's fast and thorough

And sharp as a tack

She's playing with her jewelry

She's putting up her hair

She's touring the facility

And picking up slack

I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnng jacket......

I want a girl who gets up early

I want a girl who stays up late

I want a girl with uninterrupted prosperity

Who uses a machete to cut through red tape

With fingernails that shine like justice

And a voice that is dark like tinted glass

She is fast and thorough

And sharp as a tack

She's touring the facility

And picking up slack

I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnnng.... lonnng jacket

I want a girl with a smooth liquidation

I want a girl with good dividends

At Citibank we will meet accidentally

We'll start to talk when she borrows my pen

She wants a car with a cupholder arm rest

She wants a car that will get her there

She's changing her name from Kitty to Karen

She's trading her MG for a white Chrysler La Baron

I want a girl with a short skirt and a lonnnnggggggggg jacket

What do I want, or what do I have?

I have a woman who cooks, cleans and loves to please me. I make the cashola, fix things, build things and buy her any kitchen appliance she wants and even some she didn't know about. Sex is not often, but I get to watch whatever show I want, including football all day if I choose.

I'm the husband her sisters try to compare their husbands to, and always fail. I run in one or two marathons a year, and compete in at least 20 local road races per year. the brother in-laws a somewhat chunky, slow witted and will gladly watch while I set up or break down a picnic set up or a family event.

I got it made.

What guys look for in a wife: attractive (what this means can vary from guy to guy), smart, nice, similar interests, easy/relaxing to be around (if you nag a lot, you're annoying to be around), good job. Stuff like that.

The part that a lot of people miss is that things tend to be pretty binary. At a certain level it doesn't matter if you look like a Victoria Secret model or are just cute enough. You either get an erection when you look at her or you don't. Obviously we are talking long term her. Short term, looks can make up for just about anything for humans (and yes girls are just as superfical about looks as guys. For every guy going thin girl with big breasts, there is a girl going let him be 6'2 with an athletic physique).

A lot of details are very individualistic. Some people want a partner that they can hang out with 24/7 all week long. Others want to do 1 or 2 things together and spend the rest of the time doing their own hobbies. Neither is right or wrong.

This post nails it. Too many girls ignore #1, and those that don't usually ignore at least one of the other three...

You, June, Wally and the Beaver must all be very happy.

Understanding

Not controlling

These are two of the most underrated and rare qualities. Men want support and encouragement, not to be told what to do and how to change.

In case the OP is real, do not get serious with a guy if one of your thoughts is "I want to change XYZ about him."

Most of us don't want a wife. At least not one who's only real interest in us is for reproductive value.

I can't speak for all men. We are different and want different things. I wanted to meet a girl who would love me as I am, who would support my goals and dreams, a woman who would be a great mom, who I could share life's ups and downs. I found that girl 20 years ago and we haven't looked back. For the record everything I looked for in my wife were things I wanted to give to her- I've loved her, supported her goals and dreams, and been the best dad I could be to our children.

Marriage is about working together and looking forward in the same direction, not looking ahead alone for what you want.

Pics?

This is the MVP (Most Valuable Post).

Unfortunately, both threads on this topic are based off of an unfortunate presumption that is you find all these mystic properties in a partner, you'll be good to go.

In reality, you'll probably spend your whole life looking as they'll never live up to what YOU want.

Meanwhile the other sex might read a thread like this and wish to become what will make them "desirable."

Which-if they succeed in doing-will leave them ever more frustrated with the fact that they aren't themselves.

In reality, you will never sustainably be able to please someone by being someone you're not. That's not to say you can't change and improve. In fact, that's what this life is all about. But being a fake just to please others isn't healthy and will kill you in the long run, and others will see right through you over time-leading them to not trust you (that's the best case scenario.)

Your relationship must be predicated upon the simple desire to please your partner in any way possible. Once you do that, the relationship will be stable, no matter what. That's hard, but I'd argue divorce is harder.

I think there has to be a compromise, no need to please all the time but just be mindful of what a partner needs or want w/in reason. Always a give and take in a relationship. I think partners need time apart sometimes so they can miss each other and reflect on their self awareness so they can come back a better person.

Answer: Think of the opposite of Hillary Clinton. In every way.

I'm serous

You want someone who's stupid and uneducated? Nice

Cooking cleaning and not nagging or dramatic. She is not in relationship just for her best interests. Puts you ahead of herself. And I'll return the favor vice versa. Does not cheat on you or lie to you.

Easy going ,kind,caring, good looking, driven, athletic, likes dogs, enjoys sex but not so much every guy in town knows that.
