5 Key Things Women Should Know About Men

Image
  I’ve been married for two years; we dated for three beforehand. It took me a LONG time to figure out — and gosh, it’s so obvious! — that men’s brains are completely different from women’s. Here’s a few examples, and note: I’m not trying to generalize. I speak from experience. Men do not pick up on hints or subtleties.  If you want or need something, speak up frankly. Instead of, “Jane’s boyfriend got her the prettiest blue earrings for her birthday; I wish I had some too,” say, “Babe, for my birthday/our anniversary/the next time you want to spoil me, I want some blue earrings. Here’s a picture of the ones I like.” Your man will be  delighted . There’s nothing unromantic about saying what you want and getting it. Men look for a way to fix things for you.  They are creatures of action. If you don’t want action (i.e., if you just want to vent or grouse or complain), say so up front.

Because even though he says he wants to be around you non-stop and do every little thing together,  your man will miss and crave you  more when you’re not around. Two powerful ingredients when it comes to commitment. You had your own exciting, adventurous life before he came along. Don’t stop living it just because now he’s in your life. Go grab a cocktail with the girls, tak

What Men Want - The Basic Thing Men Want In A Relationship

I have always said that men love good sex and just like the lead character in Charles Hawkins' Oliver Twist "Oliver", they will keep on coming back for more and more. However it will be a grave mistake on your part if all you can offer is good sex. In fact the basic thing that men in any relationship is not necessarily sex but to be respected. He wants a woman that he will be her king and who will treat as such. You should understand that men want to be respected as a man in all situations. So endeavor to always treat asking which he rightly is. I know that there are some moments when you might get mad at him and will like letting have a heat of your anger. Your anger is well understood, my dear, but the way you do it can doom or bliss for your relationship.
