Perhaps just after few dates. Could you make a video about this topic? I was seeing a guy who played hot and cold on me, and my friends explained that it is because he knew from the beginning that I am not girlfriend material. Thanks a lot. XX.”

    Its a vibe. Its written all over your face, in your words, and what you choose to wear. The vibe cannot be faked, and its not something that can be worked on in a weekend. Character takes years to build. Having said that, I'm assuming that "girlfriend material" means long term, potential life partner. That's all i've ever looked for.

    Me being a guy who knows he has a lot to offer the opposite sex, I can tell you that there are cues I pick up from women which tell me whether or not they are relationship material. To me, trust, loyalty, and maturity are the greatest qualities that a woman can possess. Everything else is a bonus. When I see a woman who can’t stay off of social media for a day, who can’t drink without getting drunk, who seems really insecure, and who constantly needs validation of men in her life, these are all red flags, which tell me there can be no long road with her. A woman who surrounds herself with men (those “he’s just a friend” types), a woman who is quick to anger, if she has double standards, and even something small like putting her phone facedown every time I’m around, these things tell me that I need to not take her so serious. The woman who respects herself, who carries herself well, who isn’t starved for attention, who knows how to communicate like an adult, and who doesn’t show hot and cold behavior, that is a woman worth investing in. Many women just don’t want to hear the reality of how they appear to men. They think that the pool is drying up, that there are no good men out there, and that a good guy it’s hard to find. We are out there, we just want the women who are quality, those are the ones worth having a long life and building a family with. If you’re a girl who would rather get blackout drunk and play around on Snapchat every day, you just have to accept what you get. And yes, I understand that there are things that men do which turn women off too.

The fact that I work and market Fitness has me wearing Fitness wear a lot... I also wear formal clothes, but I don’t see the difference in how a quality man perceives me. I think that it all comes down to “are we a match?”

      Hi Monica, I actually deleted it recently, out of respect for my ex. I do realize that it seemed a bit crass of me, and I didn't want to portray the relationship as only having a potential equal to what I stated.
      Having said that, the basic scope of it was that I had only come to know my likes and dislikes better, because of the experience. Hope it helps :)

    In my personal experience, it takes me a long while (give or take 2-3 months) to realise that the person I'm attracted to is the person i want to move forward and invest in. There have been several occasions where I initially judged someone as not being right for me where later I fell in love.

      Having sex is not direspectfull.
      Having sex on a 1st date is an unrespectfull wish from a man.
      Having sex for a man is having sex.
      Having sex for a woman is more life changing and with more serious consequences. Is it not?
      Men, who are frustrated, when women refuse sex is a little freaky. When they not even know you and not even knowing your character, intentions and so on.

      And the children have to suffer from it.
      Sex=putting life in a womans womb basically.
      Why would or should she give in like it is an only supperficial fun act?
      In the old days and in other countries...
      Sex is a serious act.
      Not just for fun at all.
      Be more consious and think deeper on that one.
      Mayme for you, sex is just having FUN.
      If you search that, you need to consider other options and pay for it in special places.

I do not want a fixer upper, that does not mean she has to be perfect, but she has to prove she is ready for a deep, meaningful relationship and she has the skills to make it happen.

      It is true.
      And a lot of men need 29 years or more to figure things out.
      Women can not wait 50 years eiter or even 3 years.
      Life goes on and life shortens every day. For every one.
      So, women need to realize time is money. But time flies. And it does not come back. Time is the most underrated topic for some.
      But the fun part is...
      If a man would work and the boss would wait 3 years to pay him, suddenly this kind of men would say...
      Ooo no..., my time is valuable, so i want to know if you pay me accordingly in time and so on.
      We spend to much our time with men, not knowing what they are suposed to do with you.
      Give yourself 5 months max. And figure out if you want him for long term. Having kids with...Marry.
      Do not give sex.
      Why? Many reasons!
      Knowing someone is better.
      And see the dangers and red flags too.

    From my exeperience and other guys I know, girls who possess the opposite of the following qualities are usually dateable:
    1) High maintenance girls that demand a lot from a man
    2) Girls in high paying jobs who look down on others who work low paying jobs
    3) Girls who aren't good conversationalist
    4) Girls who are easily offended
    5) Girls who are unadventurous
    Those are some that come to mind. Obviously a man should expect to be the opposite of these qualities as well. If she has all of the following above.....RUN!

      Donnie R yeah but it's not that cut and dry. I know women (including myself) that possess all those qualities, opposite from what you listed of course, and there are still an ample number of men out there willing to use you for one night. Having those qualities doesn't even slightly guarantee a woman she'll land a relationship. It's much more complex I think

    • @AnonyMous-og3ct
      @AnonyMous-og3ct 6 років тому +4

      +kristie lee Possessing the opposite of those qualities just gets your foot in the door for the guys interested in having a girlfriend. It's not going to make a guy whose sole interest is sexual conquest want to stick around. If a guy just wants to sleep with as many women as possible, he's not going to care if you're girlfriend material or not.
      However, possessing the qualities Donnie R listed will tend to ward off guys who are actually interested in having a girlfriend. I don't know of any guy who likes the types of qualities he listed, so possessing those qualities (especially possessing all of them at once) is almost guaranteed to lead to a life devoid of long-term relationships.
      Another quality you'll need if you want something serious is to learn how to pick the guys who are genuinely open to a long-term relationship. After the sexual revolution, most guys have figured that they're better off just whispering sweet things into a girl's ear to open up her legs and then move on after they've had their fun.

What can disqualify, non stop talk of their ex. Talk of all the problems they have with their kids, noticing how they handle money- do they have a clue, last their social media- are they Bar Stars, or is it nothing but selfies of her! Run quickly! If she passes this then it is a question of will you pass her test as boyfriend material!

  • @ezgicetin5855
    @ezgicetin5855 6 років тому +40

    I think men not only know right away but try to do it. They love solving puzzles and when I'm on a date I sometimes get the idea I'm being asked questions not to get to know me but to fill a database in a guy's brain to fit a category. Not to mention the ones who already ran a social media background check before they showed up for a date. Offputting, to say the least. I don't know what triggers this in them but my guess is, it's men's obsession with their reputation. They want to score girls, but marry a "nice girl", whatever that means. How many dads are out there who protect their daughters like a hawk while simulteniously hitting on everyone that flies by? Too many. My grandmother who's been married for 50 years once told me she couldn't say that she knew my granddad. Because we are subject to change during the course of the relationship, as well. In my humble opinion, guys who adopt the lifestyle of "as much fun as I can until I find a nice girl to settle down with" end up in miserable marriages and are forced to stay in them for their children. Because guess what? Prim and proper people are pretty standard. That is not to say it's a bad thing, it's just that, it's the quirks and emotional mambo jambo in people that makes them unique, interesting and fun to be around. I don't want to offend anyone here but I've gotten drunk on multiple dates because conversation flew, it was a Saturday night, I was having fun and I felt like it. I only drink outside and not often at that but I'm simply not going to explain that to someone because they should summon the social intelligence, and if they can't, maybe be aware of this shortcoming and not categorize people. I'm also very open about my mental struggles in the past because I don't want people to find out once they started to get attached. It's not because I want to give a "crazy vibe" or overshare. And these mental struggles were caused by things outside my control, so what is my fault there exactly? I read in the comments antidepressants are offputting, apparently. At the end of the day, we all have our preferences and the liberty to pass on people who don't meet certain capacities for us. But to judge a woman, or any human being for that matter, is cruel and counterproductive. Like Susan said, the girl in the club with the slutware might be insecure about being boring and trying to prove to you she knows how to have fun. God knows I've been there and was too scared to say I would rather be snuggled in a blanket and watch a Dr Who marathon. Which is why I find Susan to be extremely helpful since she always advices to stay true to who you are. Luckily, in the era we live in people are more and more accepting and open to other people so this absurdity will be put to bed in a few generations. The only thing I know right now is , I am not going to prove to someone I'm girlfriend material just to get a boyfriend. There is nothing sad about being wined and dined or doing fun activities with a different hot guy every week. I'm prefectly fine being single and a guy has to cherish my quirks to be able to change that.

It was her energy, communication style, she was fun, just full of life. Unfortunately, a few months later she ended it after appearing to be thinking long-term, too.

Most men are very impulsive including myself we know what we want when we see it and the potential it has no man is playing hot and cold if he’s head over heels, unless it’s instinct or he feels like he can’t get you otherwise.

    As a woman I think a few things come into play. First what is the man looking for? Then, on both sides, you know pretty quick if the person isn't a fit and then there are the ones who may have potential but you don't have enough information yet. My current issue on the other side of the fence as a woman is finding one who is compatible, there is chemistry, connection and is interesting to me. Good communication is essential in discovering these things. Being open to discovering, being able to honor who the other person is and let go if they aren't for me. I have met some really good men who aren't for me but am happy to have met them.

    "Do men know right away if you're 'girlfriend material?'" - No. I certainly don't. I don't think that any man really does. However some men will act decisively in making a choice of pursuing a particular woman. That doesn't mean that he actually knows. That means he is decisive. Did he 'just know' with three other women previously? 'Knowing' doesn't mean you are right. Being decisive doesn't mean that he is a good man. It might mean that he is optimized for acquiring resources but that doesn't necessarily translate into good relationship material.
    For me personally I am not at all decisive by nature. I overthink a lot of things. When women play 'hard to get' I can find a million reasons why I am mis-reading the situation and won't approach. For me I need to have conversations at a higher level in order to know what is going on. For most of the women I have dated they went pretty far in initiating the relationship. Once I was in the relationship and knew their likes and dislikes I was very accommodating but until then any move I make has the potential of offending them so I take little action at all. What is interesting about this is that in my work I am extremely assertive and decisive. It is only with women that I am reticent. Personally I believe I am right in being stern in my vocation and meek in my relations. That is the chivalric standard. This video describes this perfectly using the words of CS Lewis: ua-cam.com/video/GBT9LasyC3E/v-deo.html

    Susan absolutely beautiful video and yes you are correct men know within the first date if this woman could potentially be his girlfriend or future wife especially after being single for a little while and you actually discover yourself and you as a man are ready to settle down we know we know what works for us and what doesnt I've been on so many dates with women that are literally interviewing me they're not trying to get to know me they're literally running down like interview questions and to me it's such a turn-off because the essence of somebody is their heart it has nothing to do with anything else one thing I am going to add to help women out men are very very basic but you have to find a man at the right stage in his life you can't turn a man into something he does not want to be or he's not ready to if you meet a man and he just wants to be single and date multiple women that's not boyfriend material he's showing you the stage of his life at that moment a lot of people take things personal but you are right this woman that you speak of might have been girlfriend material but because the man at the stage of his life he does not want to commit and settle down because let's be honest there's not a whole lot of incentive for us to do that he ran away but everything you said in your video Miss Susan your spot on I was trying to find something wrong but no men know right away not multiple dates they know within the first date if this woman could be their partner.....

      Unfortunately this is true.
      But sometimes it takes a while, to understand we women need to do this. Otherwise you lose your years and chances.
      I found out sadly...
      In most cultures...
      When you as a woman, are 25 your chances that a man wants you for marriage/starting a family is drastically reduced. After 27 it is more to 0.
      That opened my eyes.
      But my eyes are totally opened to late.

    We know quickly on if you’re relationship material, however I wonder how many have blown possible relationships because they presented what they think we want to see instead of just being themselves. In my experience I see way too many who are not “real”
    If everything you say and do is calculated and presented, how can I know I like who you really are? I acknowledge this behaviour works both ways.

    Most of the time the answer is yes. But when you deal with women that are going into it with the intentions of being deceitful, then no. But in a few weeks, the truth comes out. I'm an attractive man and I keep running into women that want my attention and company, but not a relationship. I tell them from day one I want a relationship.

  • @devon1994barnes
    @devon1994barnes 4 роки тому +6

    As men we are the pursuers so my first impression of you happens before you know we are looking at you. While your first impression of me happens when I introduce myself more so. Even if you saw me prior to that moment.
    To lower risk we are not going to engage with someone that doesn't look like what we want, in this case girlfriend material. As old school as it sounds if I look at you and I think you are currently presentable enough to meet my parents(or friends or whoever's opinion I value) that is a good sign. So ask yourself that. Beyond the look(while keeping that same principle in mind) when you speak do you sound like you would be presentable enough to meet my loved ones. Are you in a place in life? What were you actually doing when I approached you? Shaking your a** somewhere or drinking coffee or reading(just some random and blatantly different examples)
    Those things we look at to make this judgement.

  • @matthewlapish1107

    I like your videos Susan. Men posture a lot even in their words, men may lie before or even while telling the truth (ponder that).
    Men do for the most part know because we usually assign a certain status. The status is malleable depending on what the woman is giving off. The status is mostly hers to lose as men assume the women is perfect when of course no one is. I'm sure women assume things about men too at times.

      I knew I could live with my wife before we even talked (strangely) and when we finally dated for a mere 2 weeks (due to distance), I didn't think the romantic chemistry was there and was ready to move on. But a miraculous vision showed me something about her, which I wanted immediately. Still without that chemistry, we soon married and were very VERY happy (two easy going people). Six months into our marriage she got into a car rollover, broke her neck and became quadriplegic from the neck down. I gave up my career and goals to be her personal caregiver for over 30+ years until 22 months ago when breast cancer took her.
      Although, we couldn't have fun like other couples, we had each other and I miss and love her more than life itself.
      So, you never know what can happen, even if there's no real butterflies at first.

  • @segurelhaazul9817
    @segurelhaazul9817 2 роки тому

    Answer is yes and we can be wrong too. In first meeting/date I can say if said girl is at least short term girlfriend material or only a fling. And as Susan said, we can make a misjudgement too. It takes me several meetings to know if they can actually be a longer term girlfriend material. But even a few months might not be enough to know if someone is to live with or have children with. It depends in how much wisdom and clarity of perception we have.

  • @tannd8476

    Susan, this relates back to the woman who stated so many men she meets are interested in taking her to bed. I honesty think women take that as a compliment instead of realizing he has already determined he is not interested in her for a long term relationship. I think most men would agree with that and most women don't get that! We all subconsciously emit ourselves and men can read us like a book.

Mind you I barely knew her and she is a beautiful person but she’s loud. And she came in all exciting saying my brother likes you my brother likes you. For me that kind of turned me off because it I was scared I have asked myself the question am I ready yet? Anyway I ended up connecting with this guy for a little bit. I feel he could be potential husband material because he’s good with kids and he and that’s what he wants to as he wants to settle down and he wants away so it’s just difficult because we both decided to not date right now because I’m finishing up with a big project and he’s doing his thing. We both just broke upWas someone as well. He was in a two year relationship I want to say maybe a little more but I just came out of a seven-year relationship. I guess what I’m trying to say is I wish I didn’t know why because I feel he’s a really good guy and I feel like I just gave him the wrong signals not knowing it at the time. Because I’ve never been treated well by a man but he definitely made things click into place for me.

    To be frank ... no. ... Even just looking at the stats we know that most BF-GFs break up at some point. About 70 to 80 percent of cohabitators break up. About 50 percent of marriages end in divorce. Good communication skills aren't going to help much because it's not what people say that's important -- it's what they do (or eventually do). The whole thing is a gamble. You'd have better luck picking horses. Horse-players always remember the one that came in -- but conveniently forget the ones that lost. I think that's what's happening here when guys "claim" they actually know.

      very true. if we perceive ourselves as girlfriend material and not succumb to mere hook up demands we become girlfriend material. and any girl can be either. if they feel like a one off hook up with a really hot guy (safely), its ok as well. and when the time comes to become serious and look for only long term commitment we become girl friend material because we wont accept anything less. so it does eventually depend on what we offer to the guys actually. they don't choose, we offer.
