Many dating women have a notion of men as being very basic, simple in needs, unimaginative, unfeeling, insensitive and too quick on the trigger. To those women - congratulations! You probably have men figured out on level one. Level two, is another issue completely.
Level two is the place that many men rarely discuss, visit, explain or deal with very well. This is the emotional center of a man, and women should accept this as an underdeveloped aspect during the millions of years of evolution. So, based on what women see and experience the most, they may ASSUME that the qualities men look for in women are, as mentioned above - simple and to the point: Big breasts, nice ass, good looks and sexy.
Nothing could be further from the truth. On the outside, this is the perception. A game of sorts. While it is very pleasing to date a woman that has all the physical attributes that men seem to look for, it should be noted that men also want a woman to have inner qualities that are equally appreciated if not more so!
If dating online is making you wonder if you're hitting home runs or swimming the ocean without a life preserver, don't be alarmed. You won't be the first or last. That's why we've compiled from a random survey, 10 of the most popular qualities men look for in women:
#1 - A good sense of humor. A woman with a sense of humor is high on the list of appreciated qualities. It is strange, though, that while it seems to relax men into thinking they can behave like boys, it can make some men uneasy when a woman's humor comes across as criticism. Used in measured doses, however, a woman can temporarily pass as "one of the boys," and make men give a second look...
#2 - Women who can listen more than they talk. You can't understand a man if you do all the talking. - And believe it or not, asking the right questions can get a man to give up some of the deeper thoughts he has going on. But not too many questions. You'll make a magician out of a man and wonder where he's disappeared to in order to protect his emotions. (Like many of us, he's still trying to figure himself out).
#3 - Women who aren't suffocating. Men like to have a certain amount of space. Even at the strangest of times - like after some serious love-making. If he rolls over and goes to bed instead of cuddling, simply accept that as a major-huge compliment. You have in some psychological way succeeded in completely exposing his emotional state and making him lose control of it all in one orgasm! With this tremendous emotional outpouring is it a wonder some guys just want to pass out?
#4 - NATURAL. Keep the makeup subtle and fresh. If you don't need a lot of it, why use more than you have to? Some women just don't know when to stop. And men know you're insecure about your looks right away. Confidence is key. Some men even see excessive makeup as whorish-looking and will react accordingly. If this is what you want, be our guest.
#5 -
Confidence. Men like women who have a good sense of themselves and are confident with the way they look and act. Let's face it, after the honeymoon, two people have to eventually start talking about real life issues. At this point in a relationship, nothing is less exciting than a women who has a nice staircase but nothing upstairs.
#6 - Women who appreciate a man's efforts. Men like to know that their hard work is appreciated. It doesn't take much or cost anything to tell a man you love and appreciate him.
#7 - Women who can serve up a good meal. Yes, this is a standard request. Guess there's a lot of truth that 'the best way to a man's heart is through his stomach!"
#8 - Fresh. Guys love a woman who smells good. NOT heavy perfume, just simply fresh. After a shower fresh. It is a real turn on and a real winner when dating. Men can sense when you radiate with a good, healthy glow.
#9 - The Kiss. This is the epic moment. When all those hours of online dating are finally sealed with lips locked and bodies anxiously anticipating. Is it any wonder that the kiss is one of the almighty qualities men look for in women ?
#10 - Women with respect. Men appreciate respect from a woman but not only towards them. Women who respect themselves is also important. That can be anything from the way a woman looks to the way she speaks. Letting oneself go is not a winning signal for men to start chasing.
