i see what you are saying, but the whole wishlist concept is creepy to begin with. why would i fill this out? so my friends on here know what to get me for my birfday? or so online guys i've never met will spend their money on me and then have the mistaken impression that we're in some sort of relationship? i just find it weird.

It is a bit but I do understand that many of the girls here are in no position to acquire certain things beyond basic necessities, hence they offer their list in the hopes that some unknown admirer may at least choose something for them. I really doubt they publish for friends and family to use for holiday gift giving.

And yes, there are those who would think they were "entitiled" and have established a "connection" that may not be particularly healthy, or safe.

All of you girls be extremely careful. Im happy to give anyone of you on my friends list my name number and place of employment for your safety but... im just a regular guy, as Im sure there are some other great guys here but.. some others, maybe not so much..

I, as a man, could never allow strangers or for that matter, any other to fulfill my sweetheart's wish list. Totally emasculating and completely humiliating, speaking as a man.

If I couldn't, by damned, I would find a way. Have some ambition boys -

That is fine and I understand your attitude, to a point. However, nothing will make me understand the men involved. Even in college, one can find a way. Second job/enterprising ideas.. ambition to do more, to be more.
All the best.

Well you already know that I dont ever expect anybody to buy me anything from my wishlist..
But i agree with you. Sadly my boyfriend cannot provide everything I ever wanted for me. We are both in college right now, so we are both really money tight. I don't expect it to change until after we graduate from college.
Not everybody is blessed with money, even after working really really hard for it.
Thats just how it is for a lot of people!

Because we are men and I am a firm believer in chivalry. Men take care of their women so they do not have to ask strangers for gifts. If you disagree, then stop asking for things and get them yourself.

Now I clearly understand why many many list their politics as bleeding heart liberal. Gimme gimme gimme -... no thanks. Get it yourself.

Tell me college students. If you work your butt off and study all night and make A's.

How would you like it if your professor said to you, "now this isnt fair, old Joe over here is making F's so I tell you what, im giving Joe part of your credits so you both can have a C". Get it?

This nonsense is making me weary.

thanks much there, chum. hope your day is going well too

My wish list is full of silly, random things. I never expect to get any of it. It has nothing to do with being provided for, it's just for fun.

It's not that chivalry is dead, but the dating world is evolving.
Girls no longer need you to open the door or pull out their chair or cut up their food into tiny, easily digestible bites. Being a gentleman never goes unnoticed, but I sure as hell don't need someone to take care of me monetarily. I'd rather split the check 50/50 any day.

What is really important is that a man can make his woman feel like a million bucks without spending a dime. That's when you know you have a great guy!

You are right in many respects. Money in any form will not, can not buy happiness on it's own. Just cant..
However, I absolutely refuse to allow any date to pick up the check. Its an old fashioned chivalry code that I will not vacate.

Having said that, I do not want someone, nor suggesting that you girls cannot take care of yourself. It is nice to be shown the respect of having your chair pulled out, the door opened, or standing as you are seated.

There are many many aspects of being a "great guy".

All the best, maam. I wish you well.

did you delete some people's comments?

Did. Someone was just pissing me off with nonsensical nonesense.
