Sometimes I think you live under a rock and read to much which brings you to false conclusions and broad brush strokes.
I mean in the sense that a man who looks like Donald Trump believes he deserves to get a woman who looks like Melania. Women are less concerned about the outer appearance.

It is the way of the world, though. Men are designed to be geared towards looks, women toward personalities.

Read the posts from men. Women are no cup of tea. Read your own. Imagine dating yourself.

Escaping to another kind doesn't rid one of complications.

Oh, I am very well aware that I am undateable.

I did not say escaping to another kind is a way to escape complications. I said life would be EASIER if I were a lesbian and did not want a man. Desire for the other kind is what makes complications.

I observe. Women who are hot and have the personalities of avocadoes have no trouble getting whatever men they want. Such is life.

Hummm... I'm suspecting that $$$ (security, possessions, position) figure into the equation a lot more than you might think. You can tell by body language when they are together, that Melania didn't marry Donald for his personality.

I'm not coming right out and saying many women prostitute themselves by marriage for what they figure the man will provide them..... but the dots are there to connect in many relationships and marriages. (Just as the man claims his trophy.)

This is very true. She often has a “closed” body language, as if she does not want him to touch her. I remember seeing the Inaugural Ball and the stark contrast between Mike Pence and his wife with Trump and Melania. Pence and his wife looked happy and in synch. Trump and Melania looked awkward and not on the same page.

Sure, I’ll come right out and say it, many women sell themselves in marriage just as much as a prostitute sells herself. A marriage for material reasons is a farce if there ever was one. I think women secretly despise the men who buy them, but that is my opinion.

I, likewise, have to admit that I probably would never even date, let alone marry, a woman I thought other men (maybe even women, too) saw as a slob or a loser. Call it wrong if you must, but I like being proud of the woman my wife is.

Understandeable- but if you are a 3 and think you deserve an 8, well, that is having higher standards for your wife than for yourself. We see it all the time on movies and television shows. A far below average looking (and behaving) man married to a woman who is gorgeous, smart, and witty. Even Marge outclasses Homer. We don’t see the reverse, though. If a far below average looking woman was married to an above average looking man, everyone would think it was too unrealistic. And they’d be correct.

This is true, it could be culture. Americans’ body language is more “open”. She still doesn’t seem like she enjoys being around her husband, and pushed his hand away from her. Since they have been married for a while, it seems like she would be less Eastern European in her body language and more American. She is Slovenian, I believe, not Russian.

In my opinion her relations are like “ behave yourself“ kinda behavior. Look where they threw flower pedals or had halloween. There she was all happy and all

I did not observe her at Halloween or when they threw flower petals. She seems uptight and unhappy to be in the spotlight, but that is my interpretation. I think she is a good mother. Her body language toward her son is more caring. Often, she seems to be trying to shield him.

Gelatea,

for one so young, you have good discernment concerning 'body=language' in this case,
I have noticed some similar things about them, as yourself...

I’m not that young, but thank you. I find body language fascinating. I’m pretty perceptive about it, I think it comes from being an observer all my life. Demi has a good point, Melania is Eastern European, so that has to be taken into account. Americans are more demonstrative than many other cultures.

I remember in high school, my Spanish teacher told us he would stand with one foot placed in front of another because in Paraguay where he grew up, people get within inches of each other to speak, and he needed his personal space. Although he only lived in the US until he was six, the concept of personal space was inculcated in him. Thinking about cultures and body language is fascinating, in my opinion.

Hi abing,

Here.. just saying i was not before, but found ive come to be more flexible and resilient, different from my youth days. I was never impulsive, wc i am still now i think=).

While some would say being ambitious is a strength, for me i do have dreams, but they are not very lofty! So in a way, i dont seem to strive very hard because my dreams are 'simple.'

I found an image in a website of 2 boys walking in the rain (a bit like me enjoying the rain, but is copyrighted. I cannot post it here, but the link: (All smiles despite the downpour)
