A woman's eye's will only wander if she feels like she isn't getting something she requires emotionally from a man.
Men should be doing the same thing (not cheating, but breaking off relationships because they are not getting everything from the woman) but they don't for some strange reason.
I find that MANY people are stuck in less than ideal relationships because they are AFRAID to be single, they don't know where to meet people, and they would rather be with someone less than what they need then no-one at all.
A girl that gets hit on all the time does not have this fear, so when she feels she is getting slighted...she is GONE!
We need to take her example and spread out our social contacts. This goes back to the whole EGO thing. People think that they should choose who they want BEFORE initiating anything sexual (number/date/kiss/whatever). I think this is wrong, if we are really searching, we should do all this initiating by habit, and then end up with many people to choose from, with variable levels of interest.

You go on to say you want a man with a good heart, but you expect him to have a good heart even though YOU don't care for men who are too sensitive. How is it reasonable to expect both?
It is not unreasonable to expect both. Having a good heart (altruism, honesty, integrity, etc.) is different from sensitivity (weakness, vunerability, etc.)

When long term investment is at stake men are as choosy as women. Men have ABSOLUTELY as much power to accept or reject a relationship as women do. You THINK you hold the cards, when in fact you are as much a slave to the "find the best vehicle to propel my genes into the next generation" game as men are.
Yeah, isn’t that funny?
Women think they are SO hot and understand EVERYTHING! But they end up happier when they find a guy that defies all thier preconceptions about men, a REAL man that scoffs at all her egotistical bullsh*t. A man that they DON'T understand. A man around whom they feel like a child.
Sadly, these guys are rare. (And differ for each woman!)
Neither men or women can comprehend unattached sex. They project their emotions.
The man thinks that women fall in love with him, when she is just using him as a breathing dildo. She would never LOVE him. (She does not respect him! She already has him 'figured out'.)
The woman thinks that she is feminine enough to get the ambitious, handsome man, when he is just using her as an organic sperm rag. She would never CATCH him and marry him.
With these outlooks (and nothing to balance them out) both sexes have no reason to grow. The guy does not grow, because in his mind he can get any attractive women to love him. (“After all,” he thinks, “the hot girl DID let me poke her!”)
So, he remains a boy.
The woman does not grow, because in HER mind, she understands what men want, and is feminine enough to get the really good-looking, hot, smart, ambitious guy. (“After all,” she thinks, “the hot guy WAS overcome by me! I turned him in to a moaning love-donkey!”)
It all goes right back to "what does SHE have to offer ME".
As I was telling Deep Dish, the difference between the quality of women there and here is amazing. I mentioned how over there they have a special holiday to honor women, and how generally women are more respected and revered than here in the US. After meeting a few of them, I understand why. It's because THEY DESERVE IT! They know their role as WOMEN and play it. They don't pretend to be men. There is no such thing as a woman thinking she can buck the natural order of things by swearing off men, getting artificially inseminated and clawing her way into the biggest leather chair in a large corporation. Eastern Europe is as America was in the days of the wild west. The ease of survival in western society certainly doesn't help this whole role-reversal thing.

You guys find it hard to accept that women are becoming more and more selective. I call it a trade off since we are under such immense pressure to have the ideal look, and no there not as many good looking men are round or even rich men to compensate for this.
For all the b*tching that women do about how they have to have ‘the ideal look’, they just don’t get it. THEY PUT THAT PRESSURE ON THEMSELVES.
Women think that they should be super skinny, when males don’t quite reflect that view. The people that place these ‘skinny’ models on Cosmo are usually OLDER WOMEN!
Besides, ATTITUDE will do wonders for a person’s apparent ‘look’. By not trying to overcompensate for their natural female passiveness by trying to be overly dominating, these foreign girls usually are a HELL of a lot sexier!
I get so pissed when I see chicks (who aren’t much to look at) act all ****y and nasty, and then complain when they have problems with guys.
MANY of these women cut thier playing field in HALF by being outright NASTY to guys that they don't think are cute.
Some of these guys, if they didn't have to put up with treatment like this, would probably be able to fufill the womans needs.
One girl who I met up with last year after not seeing her for 3 years (who in high school would make comments on how 'ugly' I was) was ASTONISHED recently when she asked me out, and made advances, and I wanted NOTHING to do with her.
Almost as she was thinking,
"Well, you didn't pass my test before, but you pass now. What is the problem?"
(Some) women in America want BOTH to be pampered AND dominant. (Note: there are many that don’t, but I am focusing on the increasingly prevalent bottom to middle layer.) But that is a contradiction! Pampering is protecting. The male instinct is to provide for that which is in NEED.
Why else when we see a feminine female do we seem to have a natural urge to protect her, to hold her, etc.?
The word “cute” itself implies weakness. Babies are cute, they are helpless; small animals are cute, they are also helpless; children are cute, (so we don’t kill them, lol!).
Imagine if the baby grew horns, started to breath fire, while copping a b*tchy and condescending attitude?
Wouldn’t want to protect it anymore would you?
Women try to keep all the power that they can muster, submitting ONLY their p*ssy, and then wonder why they are not satisfied?
This is just like the nice guy, who is dominating ONLY with his d*ck. His whole personality is passive.

American women don't bring enough to the table. Life is SO EASY for them they don't feel the need to improve themselves beyond their hair, nails, and skin in order to land "the catch". Then they complain about there being no good men. It needs to start with you, ladies. If you maintain the attitude that YOU hold the key to eternal bliss for some lucky man, then work on being WOMEN and give us something worth putting some effort into.
You want to know what I find hilarious?
I doubt that there were many women that wanted to be men back in the day when a person had to WORK the land! NOW, after MEN have invented ways to make life simple, they want to USURP the power that men have rightfully produced!
