WHAT WOMEN WANT IN A MAN[space height="HEIGHT"]

[dropcap type="circle" color="#COLOR_CODE" background="#f30b7f"]A[/dropcap] recent study conducted at the University of Waterloo found that 85% of the women they've interviewed indicated that charm is the most important factor that influences whether they're attracted to a person of the opposite sex. Hence other attributes, like looks, physique, and other superficial characteristics were found to weigh not nearly as heavily as a personality when it comes to a woman's perception of whether a man is attractive or not. The study also indicated the following about what attributes make men attractive: [space height="HEIGHT"]

1. Women want a man who is confident and can take charge.[space height="HEIGHT"]

I was recently asked out on a date by a guy who I felt initial attraction for. We spoke back and forth for the next several days and became increasingly apparent that the guy was very interested in me. The only problem is, when date night rolled around, it became obvious that he was completely incapable of taking charge and planning the date. He wanted me to make all the decisions about where we should go, what restaurant we should eat at, what we should do afterward, what part of town we should go out in, ect, ect, ect.[space height="HEIGHT"]
Don't get me wrong. I have NO problem making decisions for myself and being independent. But when I'm with a guy, it's really nice to be able to set that aspect of myself aside and allow the man to step up and take charge. I appreciate guys asking me for my input about the date--like what's my favorite type of food or restaurant--but beyond that, the only decision I wish to make is what to wear for the occasion. That, in itself, is a big enough decision as it is! Seeing a guy take charge and put thought and effort into planning the date, as well as ways to impress me, is extremely sexy and romantic.[space height="HEIGHT"]

2. Women want a man who is fun to be around. No someone who is boring or dull.[space height="HEIGHT"]
[space height="HEIGHT"]
I've been on a few dates with a particular guy who is extremely handsome, successful, kind, and thoughtful. He has made his interest in me abundantly clear, the only problem is he's extremely dull and boring. He's really quiet and doesn't say all that much, he doesn't make any attempts to carry or add something to the conversation, and he certainly doesn't try and make me laugh or smile. It sort of feels like eating dinner with my dad. I feel pressured to talk, make jokes, and keep the date entertaining, to prevent myself from passing out in my entrée from sheer boredom. Being a good date means being able to entertain your date and make the night memorable in some sort of way. If not, changes are you'll never go on a second one.[space height="HEIGHT"]

3. Women want a man who is somewhat mysterious. Not a man who feels the need to tell a woman he's interested in his entire life story upon first meeting.[space height="HEIGHT"]
[space height="HEIGHT"]
I've been out with a few guys who have done this to me, and I can tell you it is a huge turn off. I met one guy recently who felt the need to disclose to me all the hairy details about his past failed marriage, including the time he tried to kill himself after learning about his then-wife's infidelity. WOW! Ummm, gulp. Disclose information about yourself in doses. Make her wonder about you and entice her to want to learn more. NEVER share information about yourself that really only you, God, and maybe a good therapist should know.[space height="HEIGHT"]

4. Women want a man with a vision for the future. Not a man who has no idea where he's going in life.[space height="HEIGHT"]
[space height="HEIGHT"]
Nothing is more unattractive to women than a guy who has no ambition, no goals, no passion, and no vision for what they'd like their life to be like in the future. Recently I met a guy who I perceived must be pretty successful because he was so well spoken. As I got to know him however, it became apparent that although he was intelligent, he really didn't have any intentions of leveraging his intelligence to accomplish anything substantive in his life in terms of family, career, business, or otherwise. Although he recognized his potential to be something greater, he didn't have any motivation to achieve it. Rather he was more interested in watching TV, drinking with his friends, and partying.[space height="HEIGHT"]

ReplyDeleteWomen want a man WHO LOVE GOD.
ReplyDeleteThanks for your input! As a woman, whether or not a guy loves God has little to nothing to do with whether I would want him in my life or think he's attractive. While there are lots of good people out there who love God, there are just as many bad people who claim the same.
ReplyDeleteHaving love for God doesn't automatically make you great partner potential! What does, however, is NOT MERELY loving God, but rather conducting yourself in a way that coincides with the teachings of the Lord, regarding love, respect, and honor.
