Speaking for myself, yes I like for a man to be sweet but not a pushover or doormat...big difference. It's the little things that do it for me like........if my guy comes over with a movie he knows I've wanted to see and then sits through it with me, even though it's not something he is into.....that's sweet or when I see an IM on my computer when I wake up in the morning that says "just wanted you to know I was thinking about you...."......that's sweet. For me, less is more. JMO

Of course I like sweet guys. I've had a bunch of bad apples, not too many of the sweet ones have said hello yet
I want a man that is going to treat me well and with respect. Other women can keep the bad boys...give me a sweet one any day....

To me, it all is about what girls have gone through to determine if they want a sweet guy.
Seems women need to go through some shitty ones before they want good ones.
What I don't understand is why women want a challenge type guy. Life is challenging enough, and the person you love should help you go through it not add to the challenge.

sure they like them. they like them to cry on their shoulder, compare to their a**hole boyfriend, to ask them to do all the favors that their a**hole boyfriend should be doing himself, to talk to for hours on end about boring shit because her a**hole boyfriend won't listen to a word she says, and to eventually marry and leach off of after she gets old and her a**hole boyfriend leaves her with their bastard children

It's just one of those questions that make us want to bang our heads on the walls.
If you ask a room full of women if they like nice men, most of them are going to say, yes, I'm tired of jerks, I want a nice man. What they do in practice may be a whole other thing.
I could just as easily post, "do men like sane women?" Because I've seen just as many men go running back to the cracked out bi-polar b*tch when the sweet girl at the office is just waiting on him to say the word.

No, in fact I'm so not-smart that I didn't finish college at all. I arrived at UT, discovered fraternity/sorority parties, and decided to major in them instead of pre-law. For some reason my dad didn't want to finance that.

It may happen sometimes, but not nearly as much as women do it. Women do it to the point where it's become almost cliche: 'Nice guys finish last.' That's where that came from. Women generally like bad boys, they like men they think they can mold and save. Then when they get older and they can't attract bad boys anymore, they want a nice guy that will marry them and provide security for them.

Katie hit the nail right on the head...
I guess girls just aren't attracted to nice guys who they know they can have, but rather go after the challenge, and end up with arsehole boyfriends...
Even as I'm sitting here writing this, I can tell u that i fall in2 that category. So I know this, yet i still continue to find myself attracted to the "bad boys", and ignoring the good ones. And the question is why? ...I'm completely sane, i know what i want from life and i know that "bad boys" cant give me that, yet i still act like this...
Go figure.

I would like to think that with age comes wisdom too. Generally with women, it doesn't, not when you're talking about relationships. They spend their younger years dating losers who treat them like crap and then when they get older, they want to marry a nice guy who will provide for them. When they can't find a guy who wants to marry them, they typically get bitter and angry and blame men for their relationship woes past and present when it's really themselves who are at fault.

Tas- It's the truth dear. This is generally what women do. They think they can mold, change, and save these bad boys, but it doesn't happen. It's the eternal delusion of the female species and it's their constant downfall and what keeps them from fulfillment and contentment in relationships. They always, always, always think they can change men. YOU CAN'T!!

Women who are younger seek out the 'bad boy' for his engendering DNA, the kind that offers the survival of the fittest type of genetics. A natural chemical attraction. Eventually the nurturing stage evolves within them and drives them to seek stability. If the bad boy does not seek to follow he will be left behind, because she will be gone. The women who stay with the bad boys either have no children, or have unlinked themselves from the want or need of offspring. Sadly this is how the human race has evilved and it is likely for the betterment of the entirety. The good guy finishes last is not such a bad thing in life as it indicates that he was present at the finish, whereas the bad boy has no ribbon or mention by that time. Kinda reminds you of the hare and the tortoise...? And we all know who won that one...
People think that their youth is forever and drive themselves crazy wanting everything to be perfect before they get 'old'. Well ask a 10-year old how old is old, and continue doing this to children in 5 year increments. Amazingly the age is always ahead of them. I am 40 and by no means am an old fart.
So no girls do not want the sweet guy, and we should thank them for it because it developed the genetic material within each of us to persevere against all the ills the world evolves, and to triumph against all odds.
But women on the other hand, well they see the bad 'boy' for what he is just a boy. They do not hate them by any means and remember fondly any adventures they had with them, but when it all comes down to the moment they seek out the sweet guy to share the rest of their wonderful lives with. Just be patient good things come to those who wait.
(The above is not intended to be absolute but a broad brushing generalization)

In terms of sweet guys - NO The term is a turnoff. No woman wants to think of their man of being sweet. Nice, but not sweet. Again women don't want to think of their men of being sweet lmao lmao.
Let me tell you what type of men women gravitate to:
1. Men who are pleasing to their eye
2. Men who are confident
3. Men who are a challenge
4. Men that have a spinal cord
5. Men who can acutally say no instead of yes all the time
6. Men who can make decisions instead of ones who cannot
7. Men who are agressive
8. Men who they can learn from (women don't want to do all the teaching and babying)
9. Men who know how to take control
10. Men who live on the edge sometimes (adventure)
Moral of this is that yes, woman like nice men but you better have balance in other strong attributes discussed above

Tas- The first thing you have to realize is that you cannot change anyone. They have to change themselves and it has to come from within. You trying to nag or cajole or trying to love him and be patient with him till he changes will not work. It rarely ever does. Not only that, if a woman is somehow successful in molding a man how she wants him, a lot of the time she will get bored and lose respect for him. Women want strong men and strong men don't let women mold them. They mold themselves. Hope that helps.

Well. Understandably each person comes in to a relationship with their own ideals, set of beliefs blah blah etc. But being part of a relationship also inevitably leads to a sharing of these ideals, so don't you think that in this way it is possible to...not so much "mould" the other person, but to at least influence them?

I've already proven that i am the exception to that rule Katie. when my ex with issues left, i told her that she made her choice and it wasn't me. in other words, don't come back. sure enough she came back, but i held my ground and told her she had to take responsibility for her actions. we all make mistakes, and we all pay the price.

Only brain surgeons can change someone else . . . we can only change ourselves.
I like a nice man . . . nice to me and nice to others . . . but
I don't want a guy who lets others walk all over him
Sweet to me, yes, absolutely, "honey, let me do that for you" is foreplay in my book.
I also want a man who I feel is able to handle himself -- no yellow streak. I absolutely do not want to feel like the tougher of the two and I am pretty independent and able to handle things so he has to be a man's man type of guy.

I can't speak for every woman...but can relate to some of the posts here...I've been with both the 'challenging' and 'nice' guys. Now that I'm older, wiser, and less naive, I can honestly say....I'm looking for a "good" guy, not a nice guy.
Relating specifically with Kate...I thought I had a 'nice' guy...claimed to love me...only want to be with me...blah blah...however, once I openly gave him my heart...he threw it away. Perhaps he was only interested in me as long as I was not willing to commit.
More recently...I met with a guy (nice) and things were going well. We talked for weeks before meeting. He stated he was smitten with me, and then out of the blue, stopped calling and texting. When confronted he said he didn't think he was up to my standards???? He always made the comments that I was too hot for him...but wanted me to be 'his girl'....and yet, he completely shut down.
So...right back at ya....how come all the self proposed nice guys seem to have a mental wall when it comes to relationships? Ever heard of the theory "Self-confidence is a turn-on"?
So...I'm still looking...but not waiting. I'll know him when I meet him.

DUH...
The answer is in YOU guys... pay attention here! I'm sure all you guys have heard that expression:
"I want a LADY on the streets but a FREAK in the bed?"
Well... it should come as no surprise to you that we want the same thing!
We want a BAD A** in public and a SWEET guy in the house!
No girl wants to be with a man that she feels will not be able to protect her if push comes to shove, and sorry nice guys... when it comes to 'protector types' if I had my choice between "THE ROCK" and that guy off of "American Pie"... well... I'm sure you can guess who most girls would pick!!! It's a basic animal instinct. Look around at nature and you'll find your answer. Most male animals spend all their time trying to coax the females into a 'receptive state' and FENDING off other potential males.
But that is not the question you should be asking! The question you should be asking is are you a sweet guy cause you think that's what girls want (cause most girls have their "he was suck an a**hole" stories), or are you a sweet guy because you are not CAPABLE of being a bit of a bad ass? If its the later, I suggest you take notes from nature and work on your inner animal! :0)
Good luck guys and gals!

Tas.
If they're treating you badly and are abusive, why would you want to be in a relationship like that? Sure, you might be able to influence them a little, but at what cost to you? Meanwhile, he might be beating you up, cheating on you, being verbally abusive, you name it. The thing is, any woman who stays with a guy like that has issues herself, self-esteem issues. She needs to stop trying to change the guy she's with and start taking a look at herself and finding out why she thinks so little of herself that she's constantly attracted to men who treat her like crap. The reason is because she has no or very little self-esteem and deep down that's what she thinks she deserves.

Drummaster777, you hit the nail on the head there. I was married to the only man I ever dated or slept with, for 18 years. A month ago he left me for another woman. Our whole marriage he has physically hit me (first 5 yrs), verbally abused me ( next 10 yrs), and cheated and lied (last 3 yrs). I couldn't stop myself from forgiving him and taking him back - it was like he had some sort of power over me. It's like an addiction and you go through withdrawal symptoms and it's so much easier to forgive them then go through life alone.
I would love to meet a sweet guy that would treat me like a princess for a change, but on the other hand, there has to be some attraction there or it doesn't work.
My advice to the men who are having trouble finding women, take a good look at yourself in the mirror and find a quality you think is good about you and work that angle! Believe it or not, everyone is shallow to some degree. Work on becoming more attractive to the opposite sex and believe in yourself! If you come across with confidence in you, ladies will pick up on that and want to be near you.

Wow, the million dollar question. Of course, women would ask the same thing I'm sure - my question is WHY, if so many of us are here (and everywhere!) looking for the same thing, so FEW of us find it? I have theories...but with internet dating/personals, I think 99% of it comes down to a photo...if you don't like it, you're not going to know that person is sweet or anything else.
