Dominant? Submissive? A good balance of both? Do you want to be with someone who is independent, or someone who is codependent? Do you want to take care of someone, or be taken care of? Should EVERY aspect of a relationship be 50/50, or certain things one way, others things another?
I personally, being extremely independent, tend to be more dominant in most aspects, but by the same token, I want a woman that knows who she is and what she wants and works for it, rather than expecting it to be handed to her. |

I have a very strong independent personality and need any guy I am with to be understanding of this and also very strong and independent on his own. I want to be a part of someone's life, not their whole life. Which is why I am not sure that marriage will ever be right for me.

I have always had trouble losing "me" in the "we". |

I simply do not want a woman who is shoved up my butt 24/7. So I love independent women who can also take time to mesh their life with mine (and vice versa). We don't have to do everything together. So maybe it can be 75 % we do things together, and then 25% we do our own things. Now, if we have alot of the same common interests, then that is a bonus.
I believe that a relationship is not 50/50, but it is more 100/100. Both parties have to work at it with the same amount of energy. If one puts in more than the other, then (IMO) it won't work. You shouldn't lose yourself in a relationship. You should become a better person from it. I believe that a great relationship comes from when two people can harmonically mesh their lives with each other. But that's just me. |

Balanced in everything. I don't want someone so independent as to be wondering why we are together nor so needy as to be driving me nuts because he's in the way.
Smart and sexy. |

Being as independent as I am, a man is going to have be able to coexist in that environment.
Men who think there is a "boss" in the relationship will not do well with me. Our power in the relationship is equal and neither of us should abuse it. |

I believe that a great relationship comes from when two people can harmonically mesh their lives with each other. But that's just me. yes u r right, I was married for 17 years, and really over the long run both have to give 100%, but it won't always be 100% each and everyday. Somedays, weeks, months even, it may be u giving 110% and her 90% because of stuff she's going thru. Supporting each other when ur partner can't do their 100% is important to, and if u love thwm u will know that - this is of course when usually you do both give 100%, but something comes up once in awhile where u can't - like one of you goes back to school or has a death in the family, or loses a job etc and such |

I am still finding a balance.... I am a very adaptable person. I am independent, but still am willing to be flexible about gender and relationship roles. I would hope in my current relationship and any future relationships that personal identity is never lost and both people in the relationship support each others goals and ambitions.

i'm all for a woman who is independent, but not so independent that we don't do things together. i have no desire to be around ANYBODY 24/7. so, if she's got people to hang with other than me, i have no problem with that.
in the bedroom, i don't mind having to put forth a little effort to get some, but i don't want to feel like i have to force a girl into giving it up. i'm not sure what was going on in the mind of the last girl i was dating, but when it came to the bedroom she always acted like she wasn't willing and i wasn't about to force myself on her. so, IT never happened. like i said, i don't mind working for it (a little), but i'm not going to take. eventually, just tell me to come and get it. . . . |

Dominant? Submissive? A good balance of both? Do you want to be with someone who is independent, or someone who is codependent? Do you want to take care of someone, or be taken care of? Should EVERY aspect of a relationship be 50/50, or certain things one way, others things another? I personally, being extremely independent, tend to be more dominant in most aspects, but by the same token, I want a woman that knows who she is and what she wants and works for it, rather than expecting it to be handed to her. Balance is better especially when two dominate personalities are concerned. Wolves only pack hunt once in a while. There are times the female will leave the pack to litter or to enjoy some quality alone time. That is why wolves are so much more different than dogs. Wolves have moments of wanting to be alone. For instance, the Garage is MY ground! Period. The living room is hers and maybe most of the house for all I care but I must have MY ground for me to feel comfortable in a relationship. As for competition in the relationship... On the game board or video game yes but in the home proper besides these two places? NO! Finding balance really is the best policy. 50/50 only carries so far. |

I want to be a part of someone's life, not their whole life. Which is why I am not sure that marriage will ever be right for me. I don't agree that marriage wouldn't work for you. Theoretically a marriage between two strong, independent people would work. You can be part of someone's life without being the entire thing. Any woman I am with understands that she is important to me and if ever required I would die for her but, my life also includes work, children (someday), school and friends which are also important to me. |

Balance is good, changes in the bedroom make it more interesting and fun.
As for relationship, women work as hard as Men so 50/50. I like the woman to be independent, but I still like her to act as a female not as a male, feminism is the best quality in a woman, well, maybe after breast and butt |

In a relationship, it has to be 50/50. I hate dominating and chauvanistic men that think they should have to do things for me because I am a woman. Its insulting to be treated like I am weak or dependent. |
