My question is why do most women only look for guys that are great in every way when they themselves aren't that great. How can women expect a guy that is perfect when they can't be perfect in return?
I know that women want a guy that has a good job (makes the money), helps clean around, helps with the laundry, makes meals sometimes, takes the trash out, etc...So what I'm also wondering is what do you expect to give in return (that we aren't giving)?
My problem: My dad has a girlfriend (mom passed away long ago) and they are getting pretty serious. Right off the bat I can say that as a person, he's 10 times better than she is (even he knows this). She says that she wants a guy that is nice, interesting, respectful, a gentleman, etc, which is why she likes him - but she herself is nothing great. She also expects my dad to pay for everything (she doesn't work), take out the trash, help her out with the cleaning, laundry, etc. So I'm going absolutely nuts!!! I keep thinking of what she is giving my dad in return, that he himself isn't giving.
Before my mom passed away, my dad was the one making the money (10am-4pm as a dentist), and she was the one taking care of me, my brother and the house. It was fair, all the workload was split 50/50. My mom wouldn't even let him cook because she felt that it was unfair for him to have do so, and my dad wouldn't let my mom take a part time job because he didn't like her having to work, especially since we didn't need the extra income.
Now when I notice my dads girl friend, all she does is do what she wants; shop, watch tv (and buys new tvs), talk on the phone, etc, while my dad does ALL of the work (house and job). My dad says he doesn't mind, but I DO! Oh yeah and guess what, she's also a feminist that believes that women have to work harder than men. Ain't that a joke.
Anyway, sorry about the bashing. But I'm wondering, if women expect so much, why don't you expect to give the same in return?
