You say men are "never" satisfied. I think that is not true. Some men stand by their commitments - but you don't hear about them because they don't make waves. You only hear about the bad guys. The same is true for women: some are faithful, some are not, but you only hear about the unfaithful. "Man stays with wife" doesn't make good headlines or good gossip.

Plenty of us are satisfied. I am more than satisfied - I live at wonderment that my wife agreed to marry me, and I wake each morning filled with all the love in the world that she is still there. The question is a biased one, and filled with a certain amount of vitriol. Please don't judge all people by your own experiences, hurtful though they may have been.

Not all men are in this category. there are plenty of men that are perfectly satisfied with their mate. If you are finding yourself in a situation, where your partner is not satisfied, step back and evaluate your relationship. ask yourself, what is wrong and what needs to be corrected? Being married or in a relationship, requires work, just like a job. matter of fact, it is a second job. you have to work at making it work. It takes two to make a baby and it also takes two to make a relationship work.

There is truth in all the answers, not much that I can add except: When a man cheats, it says more about his character than the woman's. How the woman responds reveals her character. This is a serious breach of trust which both people have to face, resolve and forgive. The previous answers influenced my assumption of cheating. Sorry, no actually hope, my assumption is wrong. RE: Satisfaction: Let's not generalize about men. Let's talk about some men. The operant personality mechanism present is called projection. He has some dissatisfactions of his own, some shortcomings. He is restless and dissatisfied with himself more than anyone. He is externalizing his feelings by "projecting" them upon his partner, Who, no doubt, is a better person than he realizes.

think about this... you are the common denominator in all of your experiences with men. what does this say about you!?

Sometimes it has to do with the way they were brought up, and how their own parents relationship influenced him (or her).If his father talked about other woman sexually infront of his son, then his son might grow up to show the same disrespect towards woman. IF his father cheated on his mother, then his son might think its okay too. But also it might give the reverse effect. Most of all I think it has to do with how satisfied the man is with himself and what he thinks are "important things to achieve" in his life, and how he respects the people in his life. As I have always thought once a cheater, always a cheater. But remember you should reflect the same good qualities that you want to find in a future mate, in your own behavior. That will attract the good faithful kind of person.

I agree with Im Alec - not all men are the same and the same goes for women. Because of your personal experiences, it may seem that this is the truth and perhaps the truth of others who you know. The "label" in your question is also commonly attached to men around the world (often for good reason) but while I understand that many men aren't decent and don't do right by the women they meet in their lives, the ones who are good and decent hardly ever get the same level of publicity. I would consider how you are picking the men you do, to identify or rule out any possibility that you are the common denominator. You deserve the best, as does every other woman, without whom there would be no society. I wish you the best.

Some men are on an eternal quest for the perfect woman, searching for the most intense orgasm or rush of intense romantic love. Naturally one cannot live up to this expectation, and biologically and emotionally it is not possible to be satisfied by chasing higher and higher peak experiences. This may have something to do with it.

That's what I like to call a "stereotype".

Now I'm not a man and have no idea why they think the way they do... However as a female I (as most of us like to do) analyze and over many coffees with the girls our analyzings have come down to... They feel they haven't found who they with to commit to yet, therefore I feel that most men can commit ONCE they have found the right person and that person just may not have been you... My other half seems very satisfied with me and I with him... it dd take many failed relatoinships on both our parts but we've found each other.

Not men.... PEOPLE. Women are like that too ya know

Why are there women who are never satisfied with the people they are "committed" too? It works both ways, and I believe it's because there are people who are selfish. I also believe that there are people who get it into their heads that they can change the people they're with.

There's that generalization of MEN again! Not ALL men ARE not satisfied (or even HAPPY) with the one they've committed to. GEEZE! The same is true of women, though, too. (Not ALL are satisfied...) Part of the problem is that people get together with one or both expecting to change the other to what they like. In SOME, when they don't change "correctly", it manifests as abuse (mental, emotional, spiritual, financial, or physical). In some, it manifests as arguements (NOT "knock-down, drag-outs", but more "in your face"-type). In some, it's simply unhappiness or depression. Then there are job and financial stresses, family stresses, and other stresses, and those unwilling to compromise, etc., that can make people FEEL they're unsatisfied, when they MAY actually be. There are those who have been together for a long time and wonder if they're missing something, and those who got together very young, and want to experience more of life than they have. There are LOTS of reasons. But PLEASE do NOT assume it's only men. Women are just as guilty of being "never satisfied" with their significant other.

I have yet to answer this impossible question. Men and women a like are making commitments that are not holding up. I am currently dealing with my husband lusting after other women in his mind, not acting on them, but thinking about it. I show him nothing but love and forgivness, he says he is sorry, and I believe him. Men seem to be more sexually aroused by anything with long legs and small waist. I have lots of guy friends that say this. Us women do not need to take this kind of behavior and vise versa. We are going to see a counselor about this never ending problem and lies.

This is a blanket statement..it is not true for all....
-
maybe some men feel the need to try something new all the time and they are never happy with what they have... or maybe they dont get any satisfaction ...there could be so many answers
-
I don't know, I wish I knew

That is not true of all men. Maybe many men but certainly not all. Perhaps women need to be more attentive when they date..pay attention to who this guy is and what he is about..do his eyes wander while he is with you? Maybe the unsatisfied men exhibited these same tendencies before the commitment, but the women simply didn't want to see it. Happy New Year's Eve Day! :)

I seem to be one of those men so I think I can answer it, just don't call me a douche bag lol. I think Bill Maher said it best in regards to men "...it's about old and new...". Basically, regardless of how great your woman is, eventually it's gonna get old, and you are going to want to find another person. i think what is has been for me is...well, you know when a relationship is new and fun and great and unpredictable? Then when you get to know someone really well, all that happiness fades? Well I feel like I have to recreate that feeling of total bliss and happiness because you lose it in long relationships. I hope I grow out of it, I'm only 23 so I feel I have some youth left to have fun, but I'm not gonna change anytime soon, unless I actually meet "the one".

That's not true. Many men are.
