| Post subject: He will have one of them for sure!? |
I heard an opinion recently which I find very interesting. This friend of mine, after spending many years in "socializing" his clients, came to the conclusion: any man, old or young, will have interest in at least one, or maybe all of the typical 4 "habits": Smoking, Drinking, Women, Gambling. Is it true? Guys opinion will be greatly appreciated. Don't be shy to tell us.  |

an 'interest'?
i believe, if a man doesn't have an 'interest' in women, the term is 'homosexual'... |

I'd say most men probably drink, some smoke, some gamble, and some probably even get involved in unfaithful relationships. However, if you're asking whether all men will get into an unhealth addiction to these things (my definition of 'unhealthy' being when you start to do these activities by yourself and not socially), I would say that there are definately a lot of guys who don't do that. |

They drink socially when going out with their friends, they don't smoke, and they'll ocassionally gamble 100 yuan on a football match, and they haven't ever cheated on their partner? It's not that hard...? |

All woman at least do one of the following: go shopping, wash their hair, want a family, like popcorn.
Not exactly hard to come up with a list of 4 things that covers 100% of the female population! |

maybe, who knows?
from the very beginning, someone he didn't decide to get married with some woman, someone just wanted to have fun and have some sex or some relationships for sex in that moment, but after more than 2 years he spent for something & someone in here, then the only way for this man is just the marriage, no more choice he can pick for himself, but this marriage also would be the most painful & the toughest experiences to someone to experience it, so the best way to solve this issue is just ignore it and find the younger girl to refresh himself, cause after 5 or 10 years, someone he would really be tired and regreted about something that he had made decision for himself~~~~I like psychology, even it is very awful~~~~~ |

This reminds me of the former millionaire who was asked how he lost his fortune.
"I spent half on whisky, cigars and women. The other half, I squandered." |

well, I guess mostly depend of what makes your brain enjoy life. A spider is biologically 'happy' when catches a fly, dog when finds a bone, a 2yr old baby enjoys playing with crap, after some months with sex, .... as you go on you look for things more and more distant from bodily functions and physical things...
But someone stops earlier - and definitely it is not necessarily a bad thing... it takes a lot of energy to go to every later stage...
well, it is a bit complicated. they name it life. |

Just to fit more the former question: I was chatting with a friend of mine that most of the biz men you can find in Shanghai seem to be overgrown children just enjoying in getting drunk, easy girls, eating etc...
I think that much has to do with the sample you are considering. NewJansen, for sure your friend was not a bloke who used to go for meditation in buddhist temple - nor his friends...
nothing that wrong with that, yet a bit sad that he even cannot realize any lobger that there can be something else in life... |

of coz for sure...
So it is v critical to cut off his all the above bad thoughts...
NO OPPORTUNITY EQUALS NO CHANCE EQUALS NO OPPORUTNIES EQUALS NO WORRIES...
Cut off the guys you dont feel secure for...and stick on those whom truly make you happy and feel joyful. |

Men who have those personality traits to begin with will either learn to moderate them or they will completly give in,it depends on the life experiences,money,love,work, its easy,simply keep your man happy and stay out of the way of his ambitions,if that man was good to begin with he most likely would moderate his vices,if not there is nothing you could do any ways, |
