If you were happily married you wouldn't be here.

"Happily married" is an oxymoron.
So sad that there are so many angry guys on here. Going through life being lonely sucks. Glad I don't have to deal with that.
There is a dangerous line between passion and obsession. Ive experienced that with women and its not a fun time.

A woman here. I would love to date a guy who is passionate about something and is also okay with me doing the things I am passionate about (it is possible we may overlap). I've run into this problem in the opposite, where guys I've dated have needled me about some of the things I'm passionate about, like running, and have tried to get me to run less.

So sad that there are so many guys on here that take anything posted here seriously. Going through life without a clue as to what is going on around you must suck. Glad I don't have to deal with that.
Yea right as long as it makes money.

Or trust fund baby, or Bank of Mom and Dad, or....
OP is imagining more than 24 hours in a day and boundless attentional energy and no scarcity all at once. There is no such thing.
Maybe OP can post a story about a date where the other person couldn't connect because they were too busy being "passionate" about some topic.
Let's imagine OP has an SO and is exclusive. What happens when SO is busy being passionate about something that isn't them?
At the end of the day, solving the scarcity problem, and basic human biology are major parts of a LTR.

Therefore, the above post is not to be taken seriously. Or cereally. Badda-bing.

Because you doofus, they want to TEST you! This is their "game"... here's how it works... they are attracted first to passionate action dude, but then, their reptilian brains begin to work. Sadly, women are just as controlled by their reptilian brains as men, however, they are less honest about this. Anyway, this is where her ego makes it into a contest and she will find ways, all kinds of ways to make it hobbies/passions vs. her. Emotional blackmail and manipulation will follow, constantly setting up loyalty tests...running vs. "her"/"our time"/ etc. In spite of the fact, she has her own timesinks and will never accept your effort to make similar tradeoffs... girls night out vs. cuddle time on the football viewing couch, for example...
The irony as you point to is that, if a woman succeeds in this asinine endeavor, she will LOSE RESPECT for you. This characteristic is self-defeating and infernal. It does contradict the general principle that women are smarter than men, yes, but that principle doesn't hold in all cases.
It takes a strong woman not to yield to this instinct, someone who has her own passions and interests and doesn't want them squashed by a dude in her life.
This is the correct answer.

You are clearly a woman who is intrigued by the idea of cleaning your man's unit after plumbing the depths of your back door. Don't worry. Every man gets off on the idea of butt sex, the real men ask for it, and when they get close, the real women beg to eat it all up.
Wet wipes are a good thing. Get used to cleaning up with them and stop being so inhibited. Go with your desires.
Yum.

Have you also been posting lately about getting "pegged" by your, ahem, "girlfriend?"
No, I am a man. Sorry that was unclear to you, but your response bolsters my assertion that you are feces-brained, and continues to call into question everything you write.

Why do guys seem to find it surprising that many women are attracted to people who are passionate about something and have drive?
It would only be surprising if the passionate guy were underconfident, timid, or deferential. Drive is an alpha trait but it's not the only one, and it's the alpha traits that are attractive... Just like with guys it's mostly looks that attract. Not necessarily sufficient, but necessary.

Haha. I love how you men on here go on about alpha and beta men, all speaking as if you're alpha males.
'Drive is an alpha trait'... where do you boneheads get such stupid ideas.... Those of you who act as if women are this crazy mysterious thing, I'm guessing don't have much luck in the real world interacting with them.
I have never noticed that at all about women. They care little for your passions and hobbies and mostly think of them as a waste of time and money. Money and time that could be spent on them.

I find it sexy when a man loves animals. Screw diamonds, give me a man who loves his dog or kitty.
I find it repulsive that some people like than animals more than people!
WTF are you talking about? People ARE animals, and animals are exactly as worthwhile in a universal sense as are people. We are ALL creatures on this earth. Someone who has no compassion for animals is unworthy of love.
