10 things women wish men knew

#1. When we have been together for a few years and I feel as though I don't want there to be any secrets kept between us please take into consideration that I think you are a great man and maybe just maybe I want to share all of me with you. I am not holding back anything from you because you have the potential to be my soul mate.While I am doing this I want you to keep in mind that I am being honest with you so don't judge me from my past because you know that I am such a totally different woman now. Okay let me say that again, I am such a totally different and better woman now.

#2. If you want to keep me happy then don't do things that you know will make me mad. Don't try to win every disagreement. Don't let an small disagreement or mistake end what could be you only chance at having true love.

#3. I will give you my all if you can just learn to love me for who I really am. Don't try to make me into what you want me to be, let me be myself and eventually you will get used to how different I am from the next woman who doesn't have the potential that I have.

#4. With me you don't have to be over secure, you can trust me. I don't need you to pick my friends, I'm not trying to pick yours for you.

#5. Stop putting yourself first, especially if you think you may want to get married in the future. A real man will put his family (meaning wife and children) before himself.

#6. Alway get what I want or asked for as a gift, not what you think I will like. If I didn't ask for anything then just give me cash or a gift card to my favorite store. The only way I want you to get what you think I will like is if that item is better than what I had in mind.

#7. Never surprise me with a gift that is really meant for your enjoyment, unless it is just out of the blue and not during a special day. For example don't go buying me any lingerie for my birthday or Christmas unless you have a better gift waiting for me to open afterward (an actual gift that I want that is not you).

#8. If I am giving you 100% of me then I really need you to know that I expect exactly the same from you if not more. For example don't expect me to forgive you if you don't think you could forgive me for something similar. Always keep in mind that I will forgive you 100 times more than you would ever forgive me for the same thing.

#9. Always be truthful no matter if you think it will hurt me or not because you should treat people how you want to be treated and no one likes to be lied to. Also, there are ways of being truthful with out coming off too harsh.

#10. I know that you are not a mind reader so please keep in mind that I am not either. Sometimes expressions can be perceived wrong. Just tell me what you want or how you feel, don't expect me to know it. I don't really know unless you tell me... If you love me then say it, sometimes that is something I need to hear from you and not just when we are having sex.
