If they want equality, then maybe they can spoil US sometimes too.

And when women do just that,when they work to take care of a man,they're gossiped about, laughed at and in general treated like dirt socially.

Everybody wants to feel special,even fat girls who sell movie tickets.

Don't give me props for what I said, there was 1000 more mature ways to handle it. I got lucky and something funny came out, usually when I try that I end up just saying something horribly offensive.

Having said that

In which case, she's still just a little college age baby

She's 27!! You need to dump your husband (who you clearly have your own huge set of problems with) and maybe get together with Descartes, you two can go to mind reading/detective school together.

Actually, I think you just proved my point.

Mind explaining how? Or are you just attempting to sound smart? (P.S. You failed)

Yeesh, believe it or not Geekbabe, I usually agree with you here on ATOT, but I feel that's way off base. Financially successful women with trophy husbands that they're a sugar mama for are not generally looked down on, any more than men who have "kept" women are. It's the sponge her(or him)self that's usually looked down on, and rightfully so.

I hate it when women think I'm a fricken ATM. Do you see a slot to stick a card? Don't even thinking about getting behind me :|.

I'm not talking about super wealthy people who regard partners as little more than accesories.


Your fat friend's thoughts about wanting to be treated like a princess are no worse than
a guy desiring a playboy playmate to ask him out and pay for the date

Heh, it is worse though. Sure, I'd love to have Isla Fisher ask me out to a nice restaurant and offer to cover the check, but I don't complain when it DOESN'T happen, or if I do it's clearly in a joking way.

This chick is all bent out of shape and annoyed that she's not getting exactly what she wants. It's not a random joke to her, she genuinely wants that out of a relationship and doesn't seem willing to accept reality. I guess you'd just have had to hear her tone of voice to understand. And again, if she was some statistical anomaly, it wouldn't have bugged me. She is NOT in the minority with that way of thinking, however. The only difference is that most girls of the girls who cop that attitude are attractive enough for it to work.

Your exactly right

I would imagine that life as an overweight movie ticket seller isn't the stuff that dreams are made of and some people have a harder time accepting their realties than others do I'd guess.

I don't think anybody is going to laugh at a good woman like that, or treat her like dirt. I'm proud to have a woman like that.

 

[thecoolnessrune]

Things I have observed.

1. Yeah, that woman is obviously worthless

2. All we have to go on is her face in that picture, and if the face is following body structure than we have

A. The wrong picture
B. She has an abnormal body structure
C. You must be one of those dudes who dig anorexic girls.

3. The OP's general behavior is fairly harsh for no reason. I suspect he won't be here long until a mod puts the hammer on him, especially after insulting an Elite with his, thus far, useless banter.

Eh, that's something a lot of women say. I think you took the immature chauvinist route. A lot of times they just want someone to "take care of them", but that often just means someone that makes them feel "special", etc.

I think you blew it.

bingo. most girls mean they want someone to treat them special-like, you see?

Oooh, how dare he insult an Elite Member. You can't do that 'round here, no!

 

[deerslayer]

If she bothers you that much, why are you friends with her?

 

[A Casual Fitz]

Agreed. I will never date any girl that thinks they deserve to be spoiled just because they're a girl. It's stupid.

 

[Zenmervolt]

The women that I know aren't talking about "things" when they say they want to be "spoiled". They're talking about being romanced. "Spoiled" by the little things, like flowers, or making them dinner, by picking them up a bar of chocolate randomly when you come home from the grocery store. Things that don't cost much but that mean you're thinking of them.

There is a huge difference between being treated like someone special and being spoiled. Someone says they're looking for someone that makes them feel special and I hope they find true love. Someone says they want to be spoiled, and I want nothing to do with them. Spoiled brings to mind Veruca Salt (of Charlie and the Chocolate Factory). Someone who only takes, expects to get everything they want immediately, screams if they don't get it, and gives nothing in return.

She's not unattractive. Not drop-dead gorgeous, but certainly not "fat", at least, not based on that photo.

She looks like any other average girl.

I've known too many women who mean more than that when they say "spoiled" to take that as its meaning.

I sure do the sorts of things you mention for my wife, and do not consider it spoiling her. I consider it showing that I love her.

Looks like many of these posts are just based on different interpretations of the word. Doesn't change the fact that if I hear someone say they want to be spoiled, my estimation of their character goes way down.

Translation: WAHHHHHHHHH :roll: I'm going to add a Platinum member to my list of insulted members and point out what is obvious: You are a worthless pansy. Seriously, that's probably the most pathetic thing I've ever seen written here. Go dig a ditch and bury yourself in it and do the world a favor

2. All we have to go on is her face in that picture, and if the face is following body structure than we have

She's fat. I know you'd know better than me, after all you're going by a picture where she's tilting her chin forward to look less big (I know, I know, impossible. I've never seen a fat person do that!) and I've only seen her in person about 40 times, but you'll just have to trust me. I don't dig anorexic girls, she's just plain fat. That doesn't really have anything to do with my original point, but the fact that you'd try to argue her weight having NOTHING to back it up with, is just indicative of how droolingly stupid you really are.

She's annoying, but I have plenty of annoying friends. Other than being a borderline gold digger she's not a bad person. And I do agree, I think most people who say they'd like to be "spoiled" are simply saying they'd like to be romanced. It's not the best word to use for it, however, which is why I put the real definition in the OP.

Anyways, as usual, it was fun seeing the range of opinions people have on this sort of thing. And as always, it's fun to see losers like thecoolnessrune embarrass themselves by posting whiney, mindless drivel. Thanks coolness!

i will have to agree with the OP in some degree. Dating has become a pain. Its no longer how we feel about each other and how we make each other feel, but it's more and more what I can buy for her that keeps her interested. I personally like girls that don't need a man to validate them, but want a man who loves them for who they are. I don't like the full on feminist types either, somewhere in the middle is what I want. A strong women thats happy with herself (both physically and emotionally) and willing to work for what she wants (not just marry the right guy or sponge of desperate guys) is the sexiest kind of women IMO.

You're right to an extent, but as I get older and the girls I tend to meet are more mature, I'm seeing this less and less. Yeah it's still a problem, which is why I post complaints about it, but your thread kinda seems to indicate that all women are like this. If you check most of the girl's responses to when I post this sort of thing, the types of girls I have a problem with are in the minority. It's a depressingly large minority sometimes, but there's still plenty of good ones out there. Screw the rest, they'll die off and the idiot men who enable them (who usually also post in these threads) will eventually wise up.

[jackace]

Sorry i didn't clarify my post too well. I was talking more about women you meet out in bars and partying and such. Seems most of those women are looking for a man that can buy them "stuff". There are lots of good women out there but they aren't looking for the guys that normally go to bars and parties so it makes finding these women very hard.
