Do you believe everything we work for is to attract girls?

Weather it's going to school for a Master's in order to make lots of money or going to the gym everyday to get or maintain that 6 pack, does it all come down to impressing girls? Most people say they just do it for themselves and to feel accomplished. I feel that I need to find a good job with a good status to attract a cute girl who also has money so we can start a family. I feel that I need a descent looking car to drive in so I don't look like crap driving a piece of garbage. Is everything we work for in life just to find a special someone to get married to and have a family?

Yes. When my goal was to make a castle out of building blocks in kindergarten, it was to impress the ladies.DroidPhysX

Somehow I doubt any two-way ANOVAs I do will get me laid. So no, I'm not really doing them for the ladies.

I play Magic the Gathering. Thread debunked.

Ehh, not really. I got buff for me not for a girl, just don't let me in front of a mirror because ill start talking dirty to myself.

I'm also obtaining my PhD for me because I enjoy helping people when it comes to their health.

Yes, when I would get A's on my science test and everyone else would fail, it was because I was trying to attract the popular girls.

I worked on beating Oblivion just to attract girls.

No. I want to write, and to create, and to live comfortably. For myself. In fact, a lot of my interest in working out and dressing myself well isn't really directly related to impressing girls either.

Not everything I do is for the purpose of impressing girls, but I will admit that I do put a great portion of my effort into being worth having. As it is my desire to date a girl who loves Jesus does this not mean theologically from a Christian perspective that she would be a child of the living God and a princess to the king? As such, should I myself not put every effort that I am capable into making myself worthy of her affection? A princess deserves no beggar, no abuser, and no fornicator but one who treats her as the child of the king. Ephesians 5:25 states, "Husbands, love your wives, as Christ loved the church and gave himself up for her." If I seek to take the Bible seriously then does this not mean that I must prepare beforehand to make certain that she will be treated with absolute respect and dignity? Jesus gave his very life for the benefit of the church. I am of the belief that I, whether literally or metaphorically, must do the same for the one I am to marry. Now do not get me wrong here, I am not advocating that this must mean I must have a fancy car and the like but that I must be one of notable character, dignity, respect, and loyalty. If I am incapable of take care of my own self morally, physically, emotionally, and financially then I am even more incapable of fending for another. As is stated both in Ephesians 5 and Genesis, "Therefore a man shall leave his father and mother and hold fast to his wife, and the two shall become one flesh."mindstorm

I sure as hell don't play video games for the chicks.

Yeah man, when I got 100% on those science tests back in high school that everyone else got 60% on and hated me for it, I was totally trying to get all the hot girls.

That may be the case for a barnyard peacock whose only purpose is to strut its colorful feathers and get the attention of hens, but I would consider it a very sorry meaning for a man's life. Since some of my ambitions are actually counter-productive to attracting women, I can safely say that I do not fall into such a category.

Yes

No, I do this stuff because I want to. I feel like you are going to have a hard time finding love if you are counting on money and a six pack to get on for you. According to all of the girls I have ever talked to about this subject, they don't really care how rich or ripped you are in the end. I am the same way...I am more likely to initially get to know someone if they are attractive or rich, but I have never fell in love with a girl because she is hot, its because she is someone I really enjoy being around.

not me i do it for myself or my family

i dont try to impress girl im a man they need to impress me

I read a thought like that once in a book called 11 minutes It basically said that everything people did and worked for was ultimately to get those 11 minutes (sex). You go to school work your way through college become a professional just so one day one girl gets impressed by your status and you ultimately end up in bed. Girls dress up, talk to friends about guys, go shopping for new clothes so one day one guy meets her finds her pretty and at some later point in their relationship they end up in bed. A guy goes to the gym to look better so that one day a girl can see his body gets impressed and he gets those 11 minutes. I can see some truth behind that then again that was just a random thought on a girl's fictional diary on a book about love.Darthkaiser

Reading about this thread has made me disturbingly aware of how terribly I have neglected to design my life around the purpose of procreation and species propagation.

If it lasts 11 minutes they are doing it wrongEmpCom

Uhh... no. There are more things than cars and girls.

No. Thinking with my other head isn't usually my thing, but I wouldn't be surprised some guys live that way.

****y makes the world go round.

Nothing ever would have gotten done without it.

Absolutely not. I live for my own interests and to help others, and if my actions attract a girl, then that's cool. That's how it's always worked for me up to this point.

So true thats everything i live for a girl. I gotta have it its all or nothing.

My main general goal in life is satisfaction. And isn't heterosexual love the best resource for that feeling discovered by men? Please please prove me wrong.

I just do the first thing that pops into my head,

after thinking bout it 64 times :P

Not me. At times I wish I can stop attracting women.Mr_Cumberdale

No. While in its way it helps you, should you be looking for a partner, but its not WHY we do these things. If you live just to attract women, theres something wrong imo.

I do it to attract that stud I see in the mirror every morning.
