Men only do what they want to do

 I've known countless males during my life. Hundreds. Thousands. 

I have been married three times. Had many relationships with men I have known, have lived with. 

I have known lots of men I that I have only talked to. 

I've talked to many women, read many books, have seen lots of movies and television shows. 

Men do what they want to do.  Women often do what the men want them to do. Whatever hobby, sport, type of work the man does, food he likes to eat or any other activity he likes she often goes along with and might pretend to like it.  It's a way to spend time with him. Otherwise he will spend his time doing what he wants to do without her. 

He is not going to go out of his way to do things I/she likes. In the beginning, the courtship phase, he might do some things she likes. After the relationship is established he quits doing those things. 

I used to do things with him that he likes. The last few years I have quit doing a lot of things I don't like. 

We live alone together. We do many things separately. When we go somewhere together it usually ends of a nightmare for me. 

He refuses to participate in any activity he is uncomfortable with. Why should I endure the misery of doing things that make me feel bad just to try to please him? Not much of anything I do pleases him, anyway.
