I am not sure if this is evolutionary or biological instinct of just how we are built to be but it's the same for guys. I consider myself as a fairly nice guy, hard working, and respectful for woman. Naturally, you would think I would want to find a nice girl and live a wonderful life happily ever after... however as instinct suggests, I am rather attracted to people who logically do not deserve the respect that I give to them but this is the cruel reality of attraction. Gender attraction is opposite attracts. We are always seeking something we don't have versus something we already have. This is built into our biologically instinct and there's a reason why this is so because it increases the survivability of the gene pool for the next generation by increasing the chances of variability and recombination events at the DNA level. You might all think I am crazy but I myself have a pe

I agree. I am all of those things except for no addictions ( I smoke like a freight train) and no temper. I rage sometimes. Just depends on who it is that pisses me off, what makes me angry and how much I can tolerate before finally opening my mouth and saying something I might regret. Yes, very hard to find. Maybe even a fairy tale for some women. But keep looking. I am sure you will find someone who is at least close to everything you speak of. Bad temper really isnt all that bad unless the dude takes it to physical extremes and slaps you around and stuff. I dont do all that. But I will rant and rave about stuff. Some of it is stupid too. But I dont know, I can be a major ****** at times. Hope it helps!

i agree as a man
i consider myself a good man..just because i try to be a good human being, along with a unique and likable individual.
i find many, many, many men i know are terrible human beings with no respect and lack morals. some i can put up with, and even find entertaining, while others simply don't deserve my time (or anyone's time in my opinion). especially the super fake guys who try to charm everyone. it's easy to see.
this isn't to say all women are picture perfect either.
at the end of the day..what i've come to realize..is that both catholic men and women are among the best human beings you'll ever come across, and often have the most success from both a personal and financial level

YES! A good man is not a product of today's culture. He must be a man of patience, open-mindedness, compassionate, but not weak. He must be educated and understand he doesn't know it all. He must be goal oriented and not do others harm or be greedy or selfish. He must be a true American- through and through or abide by humanity and apply himself daily to do better- admit his wrongs and repair them and then keep moving on! Good men do not allow habits to overtake their lives, and good men care for their health and fitness- if they have no self-respect how can they give others genuine respect?
This is what good men do, good men wake up early and work, they provide for their family and they even care for strangers. Good men are hard to find...but then again...sometimes good women are hard to find. I am glad I found my sweet lady 6 years ago and she challenges me every day to better myself and to involve myself in introspection. So, when a good man and a good woman get together they can become an unstoppable force!

No, it's not hard to find a man like that.
the problem is that when we women find a guy like that we "just want to be friends"....it's pathetic really and makes me gag every time i see a good friend toss another GREAT catch back because he was "too nice" or he was "not manly enough"...wtf do these chicks want? a man to bop them over the head with a club and carry them off to their cave!?
I'm so glad that i found, and realized the amazing catch i found.
Men are simple creatures...they need 4 things to keep them happy- 1. food, 2. shelter, 3. someone in their corner to boost their egos, and 4. someone who knows how to ask, not nag.
:) easy as pie. now...don't go throwin' the good ones back...happy fishing.

No. I know plenty of guys who fit the description you described above, and are looking for a woman.
Myself included.
We're out there. Not under rocks or anything. Unfortunately, a lot of women don't know a good man when he's right in front of their faces, which is one of the causes the search continues.

Lots of guys I know are really nice. You shouldn't stereotype half the population just because you have bad run in with men. Good women are just as hard to find just like someone else said, finding a woman who isnt with you for ur money, status, to make someone else jealous, to buy her things who doesnt have some sort of addiction, who isnt too controlling or crazy insecurities. Good partners are hard to find in general, but the wait is worth it. :)

Yeah, a good man is hard to find. But I do think there are a good number of us out there who are trying to be good men. It helps if the woman is supportive though and has the exact same qualities that you listed above for a "good man." Good luck!
