The Perfect Girlfriend – The Traits We Really Want
If you ask the average woman what a man thinks is the perfect girlfriend the answer will be very different than what men really want. Women believe we are hung up on just physical beauty and possible a physical relationship. Following is a few of the traits men most commonly list as being important to them. Do they match your list?
Trait 1 – Laughter is the Real Way to a Man’s Heart
Many of us guys are very intense at work and play. We go to work and are focused, driven, and competitive. We participate in sports to win. When a woman can make us laugh, especially at ourselves, she wins a special place in our hearts. Her quips, jokes, and suggestive innuendo can have us acting like little boys again. The pressure is off and the fun begins.
Trait 2 – Accepting Our Friendships with Our Buddies
Too often women want to completely replace our friendships with our buddies and take over our lives. The perfect girlfriend will insist on balance. She knows there must be guys’ nights, too. She might even help to instigate a guys’ night by helping you prepare for a poker night, suggesting you host a NFL game day party, or other guys’ event. Then when the time comes around she gets out of the way and allows the craziness to happen.
Trait 3 – Complimenting Our Strengths and Accepting Our Faults
Have you ever dated a woman who was constantly suggesting changes in your appearance, behavior, career, or other habits? It is miserable. When you date a woman who gives your small compliments about your strengths you strive to be even more. She never has to mention your faults, because you probably already know every one of them. She inspires you to strive to be more by being supportive, loving, and your friend, not by telling you to change.
Trait 4 – Show Us Your Affection
It is sometimes the smallest things which make the biggest difference. Men enjoy when women subtly show us their affection in private and in public. It can be the simplest things. A woman gently holding her man’s arm as they walk through the mall is powerful show of her affection. Gentle kisses in public to say thank you, or I love you, has a big impact on a man’s ego and confidence. When a woman makes it clear she cares for a man he will take on the world for her.
Trait 5 – Being Smart and Ambitious is Sexy
Whoever came up with the idea men like dumb women was completely wrong. What men really want is a woman who can talk to him about their common interests intelligently. He likes a woman who is ambitious about her own success and excited about his success.
The perfect girl is never found by just looking at physical traits. You want a woman who makes you feel great about being a man. Remember as you meet women in your community or use online dating sites to think about these important traits, not just about her pretty smile.
