Re:No answers!!!!!!!!!! CONFUSED PETE: we even had been looking for homes to buy and she was excited, we had out vacation planned for the end of july, i will not ever understand this
!± helplessness: in my world men come in two species
1. The committment phob
2. The settling down type
Type one goes over the top until the day they get bored - no consideration for the other party and closes the relationship quick
Type two is very steady and you probably will never know the depth of the relationship with you and takes a age if ever to finish the relationship
Type one makes you feel like your sat way up high, type two make you sometime look around for type one.
Cynical maybe, but I'm sure theres a lot of men and women like both these types
Re:No answers!!!!!!!!!! turning leaf: Amen to that, helplessness! I'd rather sit and wait around for type # 2 than be swept off my pedicured feet by type 1. I've been burnt a lot by the type 1's of the universe and it stings real hard when reminded. OMG it's so accurate how you say type 2 makes you look around for type 1. True to form.

Im alittle confused, are you two saying nothing will make women happy ;D....inlightlen me please :)
Re:No answers!!!!!!!!!! gumby55555: I'm just as confused as you, Reck! ;) Ya know, I'm not sure how comprehensive this bi-type classification scheme is but, if I were forced to make a choice, I'd quite easily classify myself as a Type 2 guy. BUT, after getting burned in my last relationship by a girl that couldn't figure out which type she classified herself as, I'm beginning to feel myself start to lean towards Type 1. You start to think that, in the end, all women are going to start doing the "look around for a Type 1 guy" so why bother investing so much of yourself and your life in them? Jaded, you say? Probably... throw in some trust issues for good measure and you have a great recipe for turning a guy from Type 2 to Type 1. Makes me wonder if most of the Type 1 guys out there didn't originate from similar circumstances...
VERY interesting thread, though! I've been very concerned in my present relationship about just this sort of thing... if I'm giving the girl I'm seeing similar impressions. I've tried to be very clear every time she brings it up because I pride myself on being honest... but I'm hardly inclined to disclose my doubts to her up front, so maybe that's a little bit of a lie of ommission. I do know that if I'm questioned, I tell her everything I think and feel openly... but it's so easy to hold back things they do or say that rub you the wrong way instead of talking to them about it at the early stages of a relationship, mainly because you're unsure if you want to continue with them and you're weighing the pros and cons... thinking they do some things well, other things great, and a few that just are completely at odds with you.
But when the heck is it appropriate to start voicing these concerns or doubts in a budding relationship, where (you think, at least) that each is evaluating the other to see if they match someone special for them? Hope I didn't hijack this thread because I'm *VERY* interested in the other (female) perspective on all these matters! :)
