Some men are good at looking after their women. My father was one and my husband is another. Guess they aren't all the same!

I agree in the aspect that my bf will not help around the house with chores so it means picking up after him for everything and that makes it feel like Im his mother, definately right there. Then sometimes Im his secretary keeping track of mail and sending checks, yadayada. It's gotten hard to do since we have had children so I get the impression he's baffled because I don't do all the 'keeping up' with him like I used to...say rub his feet and swooning over him most of the time he is home. My boyfriend is from a household where it is very normal for the woman to hand and foot you where you say water and 'snap' its there. I came from a household where my father was a man of all trades and retired airforce but it was the typical roles but I think woman like to feel like they are capable of more than just keeping a household so thats why I opt for working some times because I need to get out of the dumb role.

I believe we all look for a mate who will look after us in one form or another. Men generally look for women who will take care of their laundry, meals, cleaning, etc., while women look for men who will take care of them financially. I AM speaking generally here. There are exceptions to every rule! My husband is old-fashioned and believes that it is his job to take care of me. He does a fine job of it, too! He's not much good at cleaning or cooking, though. He needs me to help him with these things. I certainly don't mind cleaning up after him or cooking for him BECAUSE he takes care of me financially, physically and emotionally. I actually enjoy it! So, we have a very symbiotic and harmonious relationship.

you are not wrong,but why you want to look women to look after you .why you look for a man to look after you instead,such as you father,or some one else.i don't want to find someone to look after me,i don't need this,even i hate this.i need look after me by meself, i want to someplace that can get rid of my family.
