WHAT WOMEN WANT IN RELATIONSHIPS IS REALLY QUITE SIMPLE
Respect
- Show us through your actions that you respect our opinions, careers, interests, friends, bodies and minds.
- You don't have to agree with all that we say or do, but try to honor our opinions as valuable contributions.
- Follow the golden rule and treat us as you would like to be treated: Be honest, fair, kind, and considerate.
Sex.
- Yes, we love sex. But, remember that there are four bases to cover in the bedroom, not just one.
- Try stopping at each base instead of being so focused on the home run believe us, we'll thank you for it!
- Likewise, remember small physical touches like massages.
- One can never, ever, have too many shoulder rubs.
- And scratching our heads is pretty great, too.
Romance.
- Just because we're staying in doesn't mean the evening can't be romantic.
- Light a few candles and see where the night leads.
- Treat us like your girlfriend, even after we become your wife.
- Date nights, making out in the car, kissing like when we first started dating, all of the things that made us
- fall in love with you don't have to stop just because now there are bills to pay, a house to be cleaned,
- and kids that need to get bathed.
- Bring home flowers for no reason. Even the a small bouquets from the supermarket are enough to make us smile.
Time.
- We understand relationships can't be all wine and roses; simply making the time to be with us and treating us like your top priority
- Say "love" more than all the fancy gifts and lovely letters ever could. This includes helping around the house.
- The realities of a 21st-century relationship are that both partners probably work. If you happen to get home before we do, why not take vacuum the living room or throw in a load of laundry? If you take the garbage out without being asked, chances are you'll be getting a big smooch when you come back.
