Isolde Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I love the way some married men are capable of showing they care, in a brotherly way, and without crossing any boundaries.
marlena Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 The way they awaken my senses... all of them...
sb129 Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I love the way my H still thinks I am sexy even though I think I currently look like a hippopotamus. I love the way he is so excited about meeting our baby and talks to her through my stomach. I also love the way that even though he tries to cover it up with jokes and bravado, he is more nervous about the birth than I am....
freestyle Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 ,,,,,,,,,,,they can open jars that I can't.................
bluewolf17 Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I love how men can get you excited about "man-ish things". Like Baseball, fishing, and freesbee golf. I love how they like to teach women what they know.
Cora Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I love how they usually leave the toilet seat up. I mean it's not all bad right? You fall in and have a little chuckle......they always know how to make you laugh right?
georgia girl Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 Things I love about men... or my man in particular: 1) How they are always willing to do something - go hiking, running, boating, etc. Men are usually more up for activity than the women I know. 2) How they always haul the heavy stuff! 3) When they try to be really thoughtful and insightful and it comes off soooooo cheessssssy but warms your heart (even though it emasculated them) because they tried! 4) Because he's kind, thoughtful, energetic, warm, funny and good to kids and small animals!
Rollercoasterr Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I love how they usually leave the toilet seat up. I mean it's not all bad right? You fall in and have a little chuckle......they always know how to make you laugh right? At first Mathew always put it down, but since he got this ring on my finger he's just completely stopped! lol. I can't even begin to count the times that I've went to the bathroom in the middle of the night and fell in because of him. I don't like to open my eyes or turn on lights because I wont be able to go back to sleep, so I guess that's partly my fault.
Trialbyfire Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I suck, suck, suck at parallel parking. He parks with no effort, even in my car, which he's unfamiliar with. He has this effortless confidence with things that matter, calm when things get hairy, and yet, has these sweet insecurities over minor issues. He's helpless in the kitchen but is the master of his BBQ. Can grill the best steak I've ever tasted but is helpless and little boyish, about making a vinaigrette. He can make any three-pointer throw 9/10 times, but once every so often, trips for no reason. He makes quick decisions in general but when given an impossible task, will ponder it until he comes up with the best case scenario. Win-win. Even though his main thought patterns are win-win, don't poke him too much because he's capable of ripping you to shreds, when you stir the need to win side. Relentless. I love this man.
Star Gazer Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 It's really hard to talk about men in general without focusing in on my BF. I love how chivalrous he is. BF and I went grocery shopping over the weekend, and split up when we got inside to be expedient in our shopping efforts. When I went to go find him, I saw him in an aisle, voluntarily helping a little petite old lady get a styrofoam cooler off a high shelf. He also carries all of my bags for me, without asking - whether grocery, shopping, or luggage.
sweetjasmine Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 When I'm visiting, I love how happy it makes him when he comes home from work and smells the dinner I'm cooking. I love how he gets excited about cooking for me in exchange. I love how excited he gets over the things that interest him and how he'll talk and talk and talk about it. I love how smart he is. I love how talented he is at fixing and making things with his hands.
littlewhiterose Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I love it when they go waaay out of their way to do something nice for you. Something that is sometimes more of an inconvenience for them but they do it anyway, just because they want to see you smile. When they get all defensive/territorial over you when they catch another guy checking you out. (MINE!!!) How they have the tough exterior but evvvvery once in a while, you get a glimpse of their 'cute' side. You know where you catch yourself looking at them with gooey eyes... (Great thread, NewAgain!)
silverfish Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 I love how men take the píss out of you to your face about stuff you did, and not snicker behind your back like some women do. I love how you can be upfront with men and they take you at face value without analysing your every word and motive. I love it when men invent 'in jokes' at work without being mean. I like the napes of their necks too, and their manly smell
Author New Again Posted September 23, 2009 Author Posted September 23, 2009 I like the napes of their necks too, and their manly smell ME TOO!! I think the nape of my bf's neck is wicked sexy. This thread has helped cheer me up!
eiithan Posted September 23, 2009 Posted September 23, 2009 It is hard to generalise but I like: men whom I have never met before come to help my switching tires during the hottest time of the day without a word of complaint. men (guy friends) take my relationship advices seriously due to their being completely mystified and clueless about the womenfolks (*giggle*). their voices. some of them even make my brain melt like a butter and...perhaps it is rather a narrow scope, on the field playing sports they do look magnificent. with rugby jersey and matching colourful socks more so than ever. the cutest things (whatsoever size they come in - forwards or backs I don't care - bring it on!) on the earth.
Jersey Shortie Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 I like when they put their hand on the small of your back to guide you. When they carry heavy things for you. When they don't look at porn because they enjoy real women so much more.
ReturnToSender Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 Its hard to be general! But one thing I guess Ive noticed of men, that I like...is if Im having a really hard/horrible day, and trying to hide it...they notice the tone of my voice and instantly melt, and become protective asking whats wrong and wanting to make it all better. Most of what Im thinking about is my SO though: the way he pulls me closer to him, even when hes sound asleep knowing how tough he is all day towards people he works with, and how he divide himself between that and being sweet to me, even when something I say or do tries his patience the way he tells me he really likes "that little flippy thing you do with your hair" whenever I do..that little flippy thing I do with my hair... hah! Umm...I could think of more, but Im not happy with him right now Ask me again tomorrow..hah!
Island Girl Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 The way they melt when you look into their eyes and tell them you love them. (All guys do that right? ) The way they smell. The way their hands feel so incredibly capable and strong. The way they see themselves as caretakers and move things, kill insects, or attempt to fix whatever problem you find. The way their face lights up when you are pleased with something they did for you -- like wiggle puppies with their tail wagging -- they ooze happiness just because YOU'RE happy. The way they get amused when they witness one of our "hissy fit"s. The way they ALWAYS forgive and forget hormones and the havoc they wreak.
Trialbyfire Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 The way their face lights up when you are pleased with something they did for you -- like wiggle puppies with their tail wagging -- they ooze happiness just because YOU'RE happy.Yes he...beams! It's adorable.

Els Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 I love lots of things about guys in general, not just my bf! I love how easy-going they tend to be. How they seldom take offense at stuff or try to read between the lines for meanings that aren't even THERE. I love how they don't give a damn about being polite to one another, too. I think there's just something cool about being able to call each other every dirty name in the book and then put your arms around each other and head off for a drink. I love how they take such a good short time to get ready to go out! I take 5 minutes, myself, so I'm damn glad that I'm not a lesbian. I love how they dislike shopping. It's bad enough being dragged along by my godsister. If I was a guy I think I'd make my gf very, very unhappy by constantly protesting about going shopping with her. I know it's been said, but I love how they always look out for you at least SOMEWHAT! I have guy friends whom I'm really just buddies with, I join them for all their cybercafe excursions and I'm just as good to have on a team as any of them. But they still look out for me as a girl -- they stand back and make sure that I can make it when we have to cross difficult terrain, they give me the front seat in a car even though it means four of them need to squash in the small backseat... stuff like that. And about the smells; God I love my bf's smell. Sometimes I sniff very obviously at him just for fun. Thinking about it makes me sad, now.
Author New Again Posted September 24, 2009 Author Posted September 24, 2009 The way their face lights up when you are pleased with something they did for you -- like wiggle puppies with their tail wagging -- they ooze happiness just because YOU'RE happy. This one. And I'm going to throw in a couple specific ones since other people did. How he was so happy and excited that I ate everything on my plate when he cooked for me, and months later he still tells people about it, and he gets the happiest, proudest look on his face. How he can't resist waking me up in the morning before he gets up for work, just because he wants to talk and cuddle and spend as much time with me as possible. I love that even more than when he kisses my cheek, strokes my hair and says "Go back to sleep baby."
Leia Posted September 24, 2009 Posted September 24, 2009 I like that men love sports. Nothing is sexier than seeing them rooting, screaming, shouting profanities. I'd only allow that during games.
