What Men Want - 8 Things Men Want In A Relationship That Gets Them To Commit To You Alone(pt 1)
Visit any relationship platform either
online or offline and you will be
overwhelmed with lots and lots of articles and what women want in a relationship
and tips and how to give it.
The surprising thing here is that there's little or absolutely no space giving to the male folks to express themselves in matters of relationship.
Which I believe is the reason behind a lot of relationship nightmares many ladies are having because most of them know little or nothing about men
1. To feel like your hero
We
don’t want to be your Clark Kent. We want to be your Superman. We want
you to see us as leaping tall buildings in a single bound and catching
bullets. Not pushing a mail cart and asking you if we can buy sugar
cereal < — true story when I was a boy and married. We want to carry
you in our arms and show you the world. Or at least feel that way. And I
know it’s our job to get there, not yours. But
nothing gives us more strength than a woman who creates a space that
makes us feel invincible. If you make us feel invincible, we’ll make you
feel beautiful. And of course, you want to feel invincible too and we
want to feel beautiful as well. But for men, our invincible is your
beauty.
2. Acceptance
There’s
a new T-shirt trending Los Angeles titled “Love Me Anyways.” They
should make them for men. Because we NEED to feel that when we stack the
dishes in the dishwasher like a five-year-old, say the wrong thing in
front of your friends, leave the toilet seat up, get too logical, forget
something you’ve said a thousand times, that you love us anyway.
Because inside every man is a boy who forgets he’s a man sometimes. And
every boy gets into things, not because he’s bad but because he’s got a
curious mind and a short attention span.
Unconditional
support from our woman is what will snap us out of our boyish behaviour
and inject us with a desire to be a stronger man. Only when you accept us as we are, who we are, will we want to become someone better.
3. Not to be left in the dark
So
many women don’t tell their men how they feel because they don’t want
to rock the boat. Or they’re afraid. The truth is when you don’t express
yourself, you leave us in the dark. You’re not doing life with us.
You’re doing life around us. We don’t really know the truth of you. You
are prepackaging and presenting parts of your life instead of doing your
whole life with us. This creates a crowbar, not glue.
Couples
grow and get stronger overcoming adversity, not by doing life
separately. Know that every time you hold things in, you are building
walls inside the sacred space of the relationship. No, we don’t want you
to verbally vomit on us. But believe it or not, we really do want to
know how you feel.
4. Blinders sex
There’s
sex. Then there’s blinders sex, the kind of sex that gives you
blinders, keeps your eyes forward and intentions straight when you’re
out in the world. Let’s face it. Men are going to look. They’re like
squirrels. They get distracted by shiny things. But there’s a difference
between noticing and wanting. We’re visual creatures. We notice shiny
things. But blinder sex gets us to say, “Yeah, she may be pretty but I
would never trade in what I have for anything else.”
Blinders
sex isn’t just good sex. It’s an authentic deep connection with someone
that makes you fantasize about them in the shower, call in sick so you
can lie in bed all day making love and eating Oreos. It produces an
experience that cannot happen with anyone else. That’s why it gives us
blinders. Blinders sex is about connection. Not sex.
