October 28th, 2012 - By Brooke Dean

Let’s face it, the pickings are slim out there. There is no such thing as a perfect man, and you’ve managed to find one who has about 75% of what you prefer in a perfect mate on your “check list.” But what about those irritating little things that make up the other 25% of what drives you crazy? You hate that you love him so much…so much that you overlook some things that other women might dismiss a man over. If you’re a stickler for the perfect guy, give him a break and turn a blind eye to these minor indiscretions that are totally forgivable.

    I dont see where in any situation a man in a relationship should be going to strip clubs. that is so disrespectful. I dont want my man looking at another woman for that kind of pleasure. if those are the kinds of things he enjoys, the guy needs to be single and casually dating, not committed to someone, unless his gf is a stripper.

    The one thing I can understand is the holiday thing…yea.

    I just told my guy that my family celebrates holidays. Period.

    Later in the relationship I realized his family didn’t do holidays…”OOOOH, thats why!”

    So we’re doing this step by step… *shrugs*

    I wont lie, I am a man and I am almost always late for dates. Not for pick ups, like taking a woman to work if her car is down or she needs assistance, or picking up from work, or lunch dates. Dropping off lunch, stuff like that I am good with but, when it comes to picking up for dates, I am just always like 10 mins late lol. I just let the woman meet me somewhere or come by me then we take my car. Funny thing though, this girl who I was really into stopped me in my tracks one day, told me that the only reason she still had her clothes on was because she was going to get some fast food when I showed up ad that if I ever came late again there wouldnt be anymore dates lol. I wasnt late anymore lol.

    I am not one of the people who is going to glorify stippers and strip clubs, if my man wants to unwind he can do that at a sports bar.Once a man is in a relationship I am pretty sure he doesn’t want all different kinds of d*ck and balls in his woman;s face. Let’s call a spade a spade
    Things that you do while single can involve a lot so it’s important to know what the other person expects of you.My boyfriend would be pissed if I looked at another man unless he was or waiter or something.That’s why it;s important to date before you are in a relationship.I knew my boyfriend for a year and dated a few months before we slept together and got in a relationship, and a few things on this list if they were in his nature I would have been turned off.I also knew what he considered disrespetful, or uncomfortable with so we don’t have awkward conversations about jealous vs insecurity vs not trusting the person,

    Women are ‘visual creatures’ too. But really, this article is nothing more than telling women how to cater to men.

      I think I’m the man in the relationship then haha because I never remember “holidays” haha oops thanks google calendar!

  • kb

    I don’t care about going to a strip club, as long I don’t get the deets. My ex told me he got a lap dance, I was like just stop right there! Keep it to yoself! I don’t need to visualize what happens at the strip club!

  • Nope

    In other words, contrary to your popular belief ladies, relationships don’t revolve around your appeasement.

      AND thats a two way street2!

    I pick and choose my battle,maybe that’s why my marriage is doing just fine right now (no one can predict the future),I feel like as a woman if you are always nagging and yelling and b!tching about the smallest things your man won’t take you seriously when you’re really mad and serious about something…

    • Tamz

      Yes!!

  • Reese

    This is just typical crap that men do. I want don’t want my man to get mad when I hang out with my girls, so I try to do the same in return.

  • lalatarea

    Honestly, if you’re getting really upset over any of these things (as long add its not over the top as the author noted) them your man should probably dump you!

    • JaneDoe

      That list was pretty weak especially the showing up late once in a while.. Who doesn’t do that?

      • Jaqueline

        Honestly, I hate it when people are late, because I make it a point to be on time and I hate waiting on people. I actually dated a guy who always left me waiting and I finally had to dump him. My time is precious, and if you’re the type of person who has no problem having people wait on YOU, then you’re selfish just like the author said. No time for it!
