What do we want?


What matters most to men? Ambition, money and career. What matters most to women, love men and relationships. I’m not saying that it’s the only things that matter but I’m saying men and women give more importance to different aspects of their lives.

Women will ruminate over their knight in shining armor. Will he arrive in a carriage or a Mercedes, when does he make his presence known, how many lovely kids they would have, would they have undying love to each other towards the very end, does she get to wear a Vera Wang to the wedding….how whimsical.

Now, let’s take a look at the other species, men are structured and well planned animals. They know where they want to be in the next 5 years, a CEO to a multinational company by sleeping with the boss’s daughter, embezzling enough money to start a side business. Having stocks in multiple portfolios and facing fraud charges from various business partners.

Men deal with stress by calling up their buddies, downing loads of alcohol and having a one night stand to boost his ego. Women deal with stress by also getting drunk, having meaningless sex with a guy but regretting it later and calling all her girlfriends for a support group.

Women think with their hearts and logic is sometimes overcome with their emotions, maybe that’s why they can’t seem to know a loser when they are dating one. Men think mainly with their minds, everything has to be concise and precise and all facts laid out before they make their decision.

And perhaps that balances it in a relationship. While men crave for success in fame and money and women seek success in their family life, each of them equalize their need for a perfect home with each bringing something to the table.

Once again, the author wishes to express that it does not mean each sex has only one thing in mind but it is relatively dependant on priority

    Haha...scared of a backlash from fanatic readers of yours izzit?

    What do we actually really want? I think only 1 thing everyone seeks - just to be happy, both girls and boys. How or in what form it comes - dont know...all depends on themselves - money, love, relationship, career.....

    Sometimes we might have everything in life but still not satisfied.

    What do you seek for oracle?
