I won't generalize and say ALL women are like that, but once again, I do agree with what Spats is saying, that is very common.

so do men have mommy issues?

Anx said:

They have mommy and daddy issues.

I would like to find a woman who complements my own personality, who counter-balances my more extreme characteristics and who at the same time loves and understands me for who I am, just as I would love and understand her for who she is. I would like us to be on the same fundemental wavelength, and to feel like we would not stop liking each other even during a fight (few things are worse than feeling like you're complete strangers as soon as a disagreement arises).

I would want her to have her priorities straight, to be intelligent and warm-hearted, adventurous and funny, happy yet critical and skeptical when needed. I would want to feel like she's my main ally in the world and someone I can trust to see through facades and shells.

I sometimes wish that I didn't think she existed because that might set me free in a certain sense, but since I do think she's out there somewhere I'll probably keep looking until I'm too old to tie my own shoelaces.

so why don't women have mommy issues?

As far as the physical:

I'm ALWAYS attracted to dark haired men. I'm not attracted to blondes, except for Daniel Craig, who I just saw yesterday in Casino Royale, and holy shit, he is HOT HOT HOT!!

Has to be at least an inch taller than me.
He can't be younger than me.

With that said:

Intelligence is #1
Sharp wit
Dry sense of humor
Caring
Protective
Loyal
Insightful
Globally conscious
Practical
Self reliant

Mama's boys, psychopaths, or anyone who has served time FOR ANY REASON need not apply.

And all those women who want to mother men have mommy issues.

Sounds like DexMSR just needs to move to Indiana.

JustErin said:

True. And there are tons of women who mommy their men. Like that woman here who wanted her boyfriend home by a certain time every night.

Spats said:

It' killing me, but he's right!!

JustErin said:

ok, i don't have mommy issues after all.

jerseykrs said:

Pretty much everyone has issues because of their parents. We are all a product of our upbringing. The good and the bad.

Anx said:

but there's all kinds of mommy issues. there's mommy issues for EVERYONE!

(i swear, everyone i know can be found somewhere in the "mother archetype" chapter of jung's "archetypes and the collective unconscious.")

FlyAway said:

oh, seriously, i know i have mommy issues. did you ever see that short woody allen film 'oedipus wrecks', from the 'new york stories' movie? where his mother makes him insane and a magician makes her head appear in the sky over manhattan so he can't escape her? that could be about me.

i wonder if my sister has ever seen it... that sounds kind of like her life.

I've never dated anyone like my father and he sooooo wouldn't be my type.

I'm afraid of turning into my father. I'm waaaaay more like him than my mom.

a girl i used to work with once said "you're attracted to guys who are a little bit SMEARED, aren't you?"

i never thought about it till then, but it's true - i like a guy who's a little rough and tumble looking, who kinda looks like he just fell out of bed (without TRYING to look like he just fell out of bed), and who has some threadbare patches here and there.

super glossy, high-maintained, uber-stylish guys make me nervous. why would i want to touch them? i'd mess something up. they should put slipcovers over themselves in case someone spills kool-aid around them. they look pretty, but then again, i think origami looks pretty sometimes but i know better than to handle it.

so yeah. smeared. love it.

Guess my mommie issue is date that I only had relationships with big breasted women...

Women without big breasts are a big turnoff for me

how long did you nurse?

s'kinna hard to have any sorta mom issues if you were in my situation, and didn't even get to know her that well to begin with.

FlyAway said:

Well I grew up among women that had big breasts. So seeing women with feature was normal for me.

My mom nursed me the normal time...

I also don't like skinny women...
