Casanova

I just read an article on http://msn.match.com/msn/ that explained why Casanova was such a famed lover. The article listed the following qualities that made Casanova one of the world’s greatest lovers:

He thought every woman was special.
He loved listening to women talk.
He treasured and respected women as friends.
He lived life to its fullest.

Are you kidding me? Men have known this for years and have ignored it. Or maybe women in Casanova’s time were more selective then women of today. Women of yester year did not tolerate anything less; they insisted that men treat them that way. Is it possible in the progression of thoughts and ideas, women have regressed? Now we are happy with a guy that puts down the toilet seat. How have our expectations fallen so low? Or perhaps I am missing the point, and it is impossible for the average man to do those four little things? It is beyond the ability of the average man to do the four things that are listed in the Casanova article?

  • perhaps...just perhaps...women want a modern-day casanova, and the old-fashioned guy is out-of-date.

    1. My guy today can't think every woman is special or I'll knock him upside the head.

    2. A woman can talk only so much...maybe the old Casanova was a severe introvert and had nothing to say? A man must dazzle with his conversational ability.

    3. Back in those days, women wanted a gentleman but today we want more action and quicker. Stop respecting me so much, Casa, and make a move!

    4. Can't argue this one...Casanova was quite a multi-tasker. 1 out of 4 ain't bad.

  • Courtney: Naw... The original Casanova, fine-tuned for today's world, obviously works for me. It's just surprising that some of them can still resist!

  • You are absolutely right, Jean Marc...but I still wish I could have seen the earlier post.
