What do women look for in a man?

Sweet Things: Those Little Things Women Love, But Can't Explain To Men Why
Guys: Do you want to do the things that remind her, and you, of how you felt about each other when things were new? Do you want to know what she really wants you to do to make whatever is in disrepair whole again? Whether you've been married twenty years or you're just beginning to date, if you know there's something about this person that you just don't want to lose, then read this and truly think about it.

Hold Her Hand While Your Driving Down the Road.

It may seem silly, but this has a way of melting a woman's heart. By all means, don't kill yourself, if you have to have both hands to drive, then use them. But at those moments that she doesn't expect it, and just for a few minutes, intertwine your fingers with hers. Caress them a little. Kiss the back of her hand lightly and smile. Little gestures like this will take you a million miles. Holding her hand lets her know you're thinking of her. Do it and take the time to enjoy a moment with your woman.

Oh, Those Little Compliments.

The Obvious: Tell her how beautiful she looks when she's just come out of the bath, when the two of you step out for an evening, or when she's holding the baby (yours, hers, a friends whatever). This is especially effective with the latter; when she's in her natural maternal setting. Everyone wants a moment to feel like everything they've come through, all the hardships and emotional upheavals, and struggles have evaporated and they can honestly believe "It's all been worth it." You can give this to her with just a few simple words.

The Not-So Obvious:
There's something simply romantic about looking across the table at dinnertime to find that your man is staring at you. He's got that look of love, maybe playfulness; a creased smile, and as a woman, your heart starts beating slightly quicker. This is a sign that he's got you on his mind.

Men, as she steps down the stairs to greet you at the door after a long day, or when you come into the kitchen to find her at the stove cooking up something delicious, go to her. Hold her for a minute. A kiss? It's up to you. But the warmth of you against her signifies to her that you've been waiting to get home all day. It promotes her belief that whatever she's doing as a wife, or significant other, is just right. Ultimately it's the comfortability of the moment that can brighten her day. "Ahh, this is what it's all about."

Don't you want to feel that too?

Flowers.

Timeless; bring flowers
