Standards!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Posted By: Richard Johnson on July 27, 2005 Are some peoples' standards too high? Do some people want what they know they can't have, probably don't deserve. Are women expecting too much from men? Women what do you expect, and fellas what should be expected from us? Should we pay for everything or is dutch cool?

I think there are plenty of people out here who act like they are to good for people and need to look at their self before they can judge anybody. I dont think that it is ffair that you think because you got on some shoes for a hundred and something dollars and 2 or 3 hundred dolla outit you are not betta than a soul. And for sme women yes their expectations are tooooooooooooo high for men. DONT ASK SOMEBODY TO PROVIDE AND DO FOR YOU THAT YOU CANNOT DO FOR YOURSELF!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Mr. Richard, its been a long time since I've replied to one of your blogs. However, some people standards are set too high. . But the standards are not too high because they are impossible to meet, but too high because the person that is setting these standards isn't mature enough to receive what they are asking for. Many times, individuals see what is going on in the next realationship and begins to admire that. However, we don't know what that couple had to endure in order to get to the level that they are now displaying. I expect for any guy that approaches me good enough to take home to my mommy even if it wasn't serious. Like swantasha said, we all must look at ourselves before writing down what we ask of the opposite s*x. I'm assuming dutch means, you pay for you and I pay for me? Am I correct? Anyhow, guys shouldn't pay for everything, I think whoever ask the person out should pay, unless something else is agreed upon. Sometimes, both s*xes can be stupid and immature.

Everybody should have standards. Standards provide a set of guidelines for yourself. Why settle for someone who is not on the same level as you. Yeah there are girls who have standards to high, but that is their problem. At our age we should not be looking for someone to provide what our parents are able to give us but you do want someone who is not always falling on bad times and needs to borrow a dollar from you. My friends call me stuck up because I feel this way but I am not going to just deal with any Tom, **** and Harry hanging on the street. Sometimes I know I take it to far but who has the right to tell someone what they should want in their life.
