1. Sehrysh - I never used the word unreasonable. I used the word unrealistic. And I additionally stated that women will not accept an 8 out of 10. Or even a 9 out of 10 of any list created. As discussed previously in this thread and others, there is not a list of 2 or 3 things that are core and the rest can be managed. Its a list of 10 to 20 qualities of which none can be compromised. Now riddle me this batgirl, do you know any guy who fulfills all the qualities you mentioned. No your brothers in law don’t count.

So on one hand you’re acknowledging that I’m reasonable, yet my reasonable expectations are impractical - now that’s truly unfortunate :hinna:

We’re going back and forth in the two threads you opened but the list of requirements you’ve written is not as rigid as you present because of how each individual perceives those requirements. For example, settled could be: 1) owns his own home and car and has savings in the bank OR 2) it could mean holds down a job and is able to support a family without worrying about how to pay the bills at the end of the month.

The way I see it, it’s not a matter of not being able to meet all 10 out 10 of the requirements - the compromise is not in excluding those qualities in your partner, but in but how each of us qualifies or understands those requirements as practically applicable.

And, Joker (or is it Riddler), as for whether or not there are guys who meet all those requirements - sure there are guys other than my BILs who are like that - I’m good friends with a few of them.
