I agree with the notion that it all comes down to self-etseem. I just turned 35 this year (with no children) and I've found that because I have a healthy self esteem I find myself in a position where some women actually ask me what I am waiting for. I simply say: "Do you really wanna know the truth?". I inform these women that I am waiting for a husband because I was raised in 2-parent home and I want the same for my children. Even if I wasn't raised in a 2-parent home I have friends that still feel the same way as I do. I don't mean to toot my own horn (toot!-toot!) but I realized my stock has gone through the roof and men want me even more because I'm different and somehow was able to stand my ground and not fall victim to the pittfalls that many women fall for in life. Newsflash! women these days are bringing more to the table. Maybe some women don't feel worthy of obtaining the best that life has to offer from a mate or otherwise? To all of my sisters and "sista's" out there reading this. Work on your self-esteem/self-worth and you'll be surprised what happens and who you attract!

Low self esteem, maybe they feel time is running out, so they date what ever crawls up to them. I think of it this way, AND LADIES IN THIS SITUATION PAY ATTENTION. No matter how fat, ugly, how many pimples you have, how small your boobs are, if you only have 3 toes, a woman must put her self up on a pedestal. That only means this, you want to date a man who is going to want you and you will want him. How do you know he wants you? Dont give him sex too soon, talk to him, see how he interacts with people/family and always ALWAYS present you self with the honest truth of what you can offer a man (caring, hard working woman who loves children and would be the best mother for your future babies, whatever the case maybe). Let him work for it and you will see if the guy is up to par with you and your standards and also if your up to par with his.

i think women lower there standards for men because they would rather settle then wait it out and find the right person. because in all reality the dating scene is a waste of time and very disappointing so lowering standards is a cop out.

When human beings become intoxicated with the power of love they can become vulnerable and sometimes powerless over thier actions. Answered by ganeshaAge : 2 1 month ago Edit Delete Vote 0 Answered by ganesha 1 month ago
In all our lives we create expectations on what we want and expect in partner. In reality no one will every fully fulfill the criteria we have set. So do we really compromise and become more realistic in our selection process. The process is mutual and the other person is also making the same judgments about you. Do men have to also lower maybe not their standards but their expectations. I've heard mention of the 80/20 rule in selecting and staying with a partner. If your standard or expectation is 100% and you meet someone that fulfills 80% of your expectation then maybe that's as good as it will get. Do you continue to look for the perfect 10 or do you settle for an 8? It all depends on what makes you happy.
