What men and women want from dating
Women want cuddles & conversation after sex. Men only want
pepperoni pizza.

Men and women excel at messing up their love lives. This is why romantic songs and movies and greeting cards are so popular. They bring us a world of Fabio and Julio and Romeo, instead of the world of your unshaven husband asleep on the couch, in his underwear, snoring, drool dangling from his lips, a half-eaten bag of Cheetos spilled out onto the floor he's never vacuumed. But don't despair. There is hope. Here, then, in partial fulfillment of the conditions of my community service sentence, are the Major Romantic Mistakes Made By Men And Women.
On dates, women like to be taken to fine restaurants, and sophisticated evenings of theater, and then directly home, with perhaps some casual flirting at the door, before saying good night.
If men had their way, the date would consist of a triple Wham-Bam Burger
at Hooters restaurant, the latest war movie, and then having at each other like wild monkeys at the Sin-Sational Motor Lodge, featuring heated, revolving water beds, complimentary day-glo love gels, and overhead mirrors. Or so I've heard.
Men use cologne when they start dating. This gives women the mistaken impression that their man naturally smells like an exotic rain forrest, and will always smell that way. Is it any wonder, then, that problems arise later in life, when the man feels he's got the woman and no longer needs the cologne?
These days, his natural aroma is a mixture of beer, tobacco, three day old underwear, the dog, last night's pork 'n garlic burrito, really funky sweat, and something that died an agonizing death months ago.
Women expect compliments. And are upset when the compliments don't come. But how can you realistically expect compliments from a gender that believes once they pick up their socks from the floor, they've completed their house cleaning chores for the week?
At best, men might offer an occasional, "Hey, nice drive" to their golf partner. But the emotional sensitivity required to go from "Hey, nice drive," to "Where you walk, flowers grow," is just not present in the adult male.
Men are always looking at other women. If an attractive woman appears, male radar activates, and they immediately think, "Gee, I wonder what it would be like to have uninhibited sex with that woman, without having to be sensitive to her needs." Somehow, this irritates women.
Women expect men to cuddle and talk after having sex. Cuddling and talking is bearable for maybe the first minute and a half afterwards. Beyond that, centuries of male genetics kick in, so that even while the woman may be talking about her feelings that you are different from any other men she's ever known, the man's brain is filled only with images of having a pepperoni pizza while watching the Playboy Channel. And the Playboy Channel has no cuddling and talking after sex. They just cut to another couple having sex and not cuddling or talking afterwards.
Men believe that God wouldn't have given them the ability to make gross noises with their various body parts, if He didn't want them to do so. Okay, let's, just for the sake of argument, say this is true. Nonetheless, it nauseates women. Yes, even if you say "Excuse me" afterwards. Or pretend the dog did it.
Women feel they don't have to inform their men why they're upset; men should just know. The odds are really against this one working, simply because men make so many mistakes all day long, that to have to guess which of them is ticking their woman off, would be not only time-consuming, but sheer luck.
Men expect women to make dinner, take care of the house, and be eager for sex every night. And what do men do in return? Once every three weeks, they're asked to open the lid of a jar. After doing so, they get this look on their faces, as if to say, "What would you do without me, babe?"
Women expect men to say, "I love you." This one is not a mistake. Women need to hear it. And men need to say it a lot more often. In fact, I'd like to take this opportunity now to say it to my girlfriend. "Ruth, I love you. And I'll be right in, honey. I'm just finishing my pizza."
