Do we look for the same qualities our mothers have in a girl/woman?

I can't say I do exactly. But its suppose to be subconscious. I don't buy it.

So you're trying to get into Freud?


I hear this a lot, but I never really see it... I think the nuance behind the notion is that its more subconscious.
 
I was reading this on another forum that subconsciously we want someone like our mothers. I don't really buy it.

I think that in the sense, we want someone who will accept us for who we are, like our moms do. I mean, you can be a loser or whatever and your mom will still love you. So you want that in a partner
 
I actually do. My mother was a hard-working, very dedicated and devoted mother to 5 boys.

She worked, came home and cooked, cleaned after my punk @+* little brothers and still smiled at the end of the day.

If my wife can manage to master just one of those attributes; I would be a happy man.

I want a wife with identical.qualities to my mom. i honestly can't see anything wrong with the women. She does everything you can expect out of a wife. My dad on the other hand, I plan on fixing somethings about myself so I don't end up exactly like him. Because we are too similar.

YUP my mom is the same lol!! I can def see my current gf have the same qualities as my mom

hard working, cooks, cleans, tries her best, patient, def wifey material

but this is def not for all people
 
I feel like I look for qualities in a guy my dad has.

He's a no nonsense type of guy w/out being a hard @$%

He's always handles his business. There's a better way to word that but I can't think right now.

My could hold it down but she never had to cuz my dad handles business. Not in a spoiled way but he's military so everything is straight to the point and organized.

One way I can describe any guy I dealt w/is he was on his !+!#. Thats how my dad is.
 
No. Absolutely not. Never.

I love my mother but I can say there are very few things that I have ever agreed with that she has done. Just about the only positive is that she adopted two kids. Her intentions for adopting are questionable, though. She fits the saying "the road to hell is paved with good intentions" perfectly.

She has made my father's life hell, personally and financially (why he keeps bailing her out of her messes, I'll never know), and is controlled by her depressive states. Much of the childhoods of her kids were spent moving being dragged around based on how she felt and her benefit, never providing a stable environment for her kids. She is also very controlling of her youngest adopted child, who she won't let see her friends more then maybe once or twice a month, and yells at this kid on a daily basis for the most arbitrary things. 
 
I know I don't.

But maybe I can't see it and somebody trying to psychoanalyze your relationship will find a way to connect dots to say you do.
 
i thought that was for girls... ex. Girls want someone who remind them of there father???
idk i love my moms to death but the thought irks me a bit
