What is it that women want in a man? This is the big important question for guys. From a woman’s perspective, I’ll tell you now that we really don’t want much, but the things we want are crucial in relationships.
First off, let it be known that looks are not everything to women.
Sure, it’s always better when you’re with an attractive guy, but that means nothing if all he has is looks. Personality plays a big key. If you are a genuinely fun person to be around, that is all you need sometimes. We want someone who we can be ourselves around, someone who can make us laugh, someone who we can play sports with, and someone to take us fishing. Girls might fall in love with looks, but women fall in love with personality.
Next is honesty.
For some reason guys have this bright idea that lying and hiding things will help the situation. Here’s a tip. It won’t. All lying does is make things worse for everyone. All women want is the truth, even if it hurts. Simple as that.
Also we want you to be kind and caring to us.
We absolutely love the sweet, corny guys. There is a limit to this. Sure, we want you to show us off and show that you care, but we don’t want you to be clingy about it. We need space just as much as y'all do.
Another important thing is security.
Women want to feel safe around you. We don’t want to feel like we’re in danger all the time. Also, if there is ever a bad situation we want to know that you will protect us. We don’t want someone who is just going to leave us in harm’s way.
The most important trait is loyalty.
We want a guy who is going to remain faithful to us. There is no simpler way to put it. It's unattractive when a guy can’t be faithful, especially to someone he supposedly cares a lot about. That also looks bad on your character. We want a man that is going to put us before everyone else and let everyone know that we are the one he cares about. If you can’t do that, you can’t ever expect us to be happy in the relationship.
Now here is the last but definitely not least important trait. This would be the ability to have fun.
We don’t want a guy who never wants to go out and do anything. We understand that a lot of guys like to play their video games and we understand-- most of us will sit there and play with you. The thing is we like to do other stuff, too. Take us hiking in the mountains, deep sea fishing, and downtown for karaoke night, bowling with some friends, or swimming in the river. We like doing new things and having adventures, especially when it is with the right guy.
Don’t get me wrong; we like that $200 Michael Kors watch and fancy dinner date, but try something different sometimes. Don’t be scared to have an adventure with us and don’t be scared to open up with us. You’d be surprised at how the little things seem to outdo the big things. Now be yourself and go after that girl you’re trying impress. Life is too short for regrets.
