[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I think there are two kinds of men:

1.  Men who have a list;

2.  Men who meet a woman and decide she is everything on his list.

I think my husband was #2.  I can’t see the man making a list even if his life depended on it.  I think #2 might be easier to live with.[/quote]

How do you differentiate between having a list and just basic qualifications?  For example, I only dated women attending college like me.  I wanted someone that had basic sense about budgeting/financial responsibility.  I wouldn't say my requirements were long but it wasn't an open-ended thing either.  Surely even your DH had dealbreakers back then.[/quote]

I think he had a “list” in that there were just the most basic requirements- college educated, same religion as him, decent family.  I think that’s where DH’s list ended and he could have married another woman who was completely different than me if she had crossed his path.  Men here who are like: “must love sex and also the back door,” are reaching a level of specificity that I think might make them more difficult as partners.  A lot of men are easygoing and easier to keep happy.[/quote]

That's fair, thank you.  I agree a lengthy list of requirements probably does more harm than good.[/quote]
