Both men and women don’t know what the opposite sex really wants, especially out of a relationship. So, women, what do men want?

What Do Men Want in Relationships?

First, men love to seek a love-interest. Surprising, isn’t it? But men do want to love and be loved – it satisfies that male ego of theirs. They tend to have problems finding women for a relationship, tough, because they tend to look in all the wrong places – for example, a bar. Women are so tired of being hit on by cheesy one-liners that we tend to be a little cold and impassionate, which turns the man off. So, women, we need to give these guys a chance. Once they think they found Miss Right, they will hold on tight.

Of course men want someone they are attracted to. This does not make them shallow – we do the same thing. If you want a relationship to work, there has to be attraction. This does not mean they want an 100 pound catwalk model, you just need to have confidence and dress casually but attractively. A guy wants a woman he can proudly wear on his arm, so take the time to look nice – this does not mean pounds of makeup or miniskirts or even low cut tops. He doesn’t want a prostitute, but a woman he’s proud of.

You need to be trustworthy. If he can’t put any faith in you to be there for him, it just won’t work. If you don’t seem trustworthy, it may lead him to be unfaithful. It’s because of women who have betrayed his trust that make men so wary and uneasy, unable to commit to one woman – that’s right, he’s afraid to get hurt, ladies!

A Faithful, Committed Woman

In order to be that lady who gets taken home to meet the parents and eventually make a home with him, he is looking for someone who shares and has a social lifestyle. You need to be social, willing to meet new people and experience new things, so he sees you as someone who will take on the things that can be a little scary – this makes for a woman who would be a great partner, in life and in a relationship.

Men love women because of their femininity. It is like yin and yang – the masculine to the feminine. So we need to be gentle, kind, but passionate, in order to have that attractive appeal men crave. This doesn’t mean be a mother to him! Although some men need that motherly figure in his girlfriend, it is more likely that they are seeking a woman who would make a good mother to his children, not to him.

Men are looking for a girl with a sense of humor. Usually, women come across as uptight and prudish, bother by the petty things. You know the phrase when a girl is “one of the boys”? This means that she is able to fit in with his human, as well as his friends, and makes her social and fun to hang out with. Guys find these girls attractive because he can be himself, which is the most important part of a relationship – you need to be yourself, and relax, so that you can enjoy yourself and know you’re both loved for you, not the idea of you.

A Feminine, Confident Woman

A trend has emerged in the recent years where women have begun to mimic men and their – ahem – “social skills”. This includes burping, farting, and drinking pints of beer obnoxiously. While it’s true we all have the right to do these things, men find them unattractive, especially in the women they would consider dating. Keep your social skills in order to keep your femininity and your appeal intact.

Women need to be supportive. Don’t just blindly agree to anything a man says, but be there. Too many women try to mold their man into the ideal guy, but it just won’t work, and can quickly push him away. A man is looking for a relationship that works as a support system, where he can be himself but still able to rely on you for help when he needs it.

Angry women are a major turnoff. Although a fiery, passionate temperament may have attracted him to you the first day, by the 400th day he will be sick of it. You need to be able to communicate and listen.

The challenge is the best part. If a woman doesn’t keep a man on his toes, he gets bored. Men get lazy pretty quickly once their relationship is official, so if he’s constantly challenged, he’ll stay interested.

This may be surprising, but men aren’t that adventurous with sex. Although they take pride in their so called sexual exploits, their idea of adventurous is the quantity of sex, not the quality. It is women who tend to find themselves bored and trying new things, while men find a quiet routine and love to stick to it. Start slow with fun things like massage oils, blindfolds, and possibly love rings, depending on how adventurous the guy is. You can find a variety of intimate products at Adam and Eve.

Commitment. That is important, on both sides, for it to work. That was how my relationship flourished – as soon as we made that step, it turned from casual “dating” to connecting on a level neither of us had experienced. So many people are scared to trust someone enough to commit, because when that is betrayed, it is the word pain imaginable. But it is worth it. Whether it lasts a day, a year, forever, that emotion is so powerful the memory will last a lifetime, and men crave it.

A Happy, Committed Couple

Most importantly, men don’t want to be alone. Period. It is something they are afraid of and crave like a heroin addict. Companionship is wonderful, and he will treat you like a goddess if you let him.

So ladies, remember: Men are looking for a dependable, sexy, single girl to whom he can commit to, live with, and just hang out with. He wants to have fun with you, plus share his life until he is ready to settle down – however long it does take.

I know it’s hard to accept these things, especially because the modern woman is becoming increasingly stronger than the male role in society. But men do want that feeling of accomplishment and pride that comes with being the bread-winner, so to keep him happy, respect that desire within him – a happy man equals a happy relationship. But if he doesn’t make you happy in return, it just won’t work. Consider both of you, plus stay true to yourself, to make the relationship what both of you dream of.
