I...Thanks everyone for sharing your points of view. I know I am not "needy" for a husband. I do not "need" a man for his money or position, or for children. At this stage in my life I just think it'd still be nice to be able to love and be loved by a good man and to share what's left of my life with him. I have loved and been loved so I know what it's like and would love to have that again, even in old age. Whatever your viewpoint, I think we can all agree that love is precious and unfortunately in these days, rare.Leslie:https://www.blogger.com/profile/11964698251137788839noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14919964.post-30821803525135604222008-01-22T20:04:00.000-08:002008-01-22T20:04:00.000-08:00Most of the women here bring up great points....an...Most of the women here bring up great points....and have seen it all and I think that most women really know men better than they wish they did. Intelligent women are able to admit when enough is NOT enough- that they have souls and depth....and that Life is precious....and I think many of us are searching for a soul mate to share our path......<BR/><BR/>Some are lucky and have found Men of Substance...<BR/><BR/>And some of us realize that Men of Substance are a rare thing indeed....but worth waiting for, and that wasting time with "Lesser Men " is indeed a waste of prescious time.....<BR/><BR/>Why date so a man can that is self obsessed and narcissistic ? ( and believe me- over 40 they are a dime a dozen for some reason)....Real Men are rare....<BR/><BR/>And to any men that read this, Women like to be acknowledged as Intelligent, Wise and Beautiful.....they like to be told that and shown that.....They like nice meals, good conversation and men that look at them as real people.....and admire them as Intelligent and Articulate....<BR/><BR/>I know no "Needy " woman, I know women that are Strong, Wise, and Creative.....Neanderthals view women as "needy".....The women that blog know better.....always.enigma4everhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/06589997090173140019noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-14919964.post-27901828407621601592008-01-22T19:35:00.000-08:002008-01-22T19:35:00.000-08:00Josie said, "Okay, BBC, define needy."That's easy,...Josie said, "Okay, BBC, define needy."<BR/><BR/>That's easy, needy is wanting more than you have. If you have a roof over your head and food I think that you should be thankful. <BR/><BR/>I do and I am. All I have is all I need, so why do you women always want so much more? Do you really think it will make you 'more happy'? <BR/><BR/>The happiest woman I know (Helen) has about six lights and a transistor radio and some old furniture. Could you be happy with that? I don't think so, but she is.<BR/><BR/>Sure, come to my blog and debate it with me. But my blog isn't for anyone weak of heart and soul, and anyone with an IQ under a 120.<BR/><BR/>Sure, scoff at the bat shit crazy stuff on it. But those with the highest IQ's know that they are. <BR/><BR/>Everyone else thinks they are sane.
