How to be a Good Husband - Tips on Relationships

71

By Coolmon2009

Every lady dreams of being with a man who truly understands and loves her for who she is. This is what women want in a man. Having been in relationships before, I look for the following qualities in a man.

Selflessness

Does he pay attention to needs of those around him? To me, it is wonderful to watch a man do for others without a thought of what they will get in return. What i mean by this is small things like holding a door open for a lady or helping a old lady across the street; to me this says a lot about what kinda man he is.

Love and Honesty

Unfortunately, the dating process is usually based on deception. The couple in question will send their best representatives while the real persons(bad habits and all) are locked away at home. Since most dates are based on deception from the start. It makes it more difficult to know what is real and what isn't. Does he love me because I'm pleasing to the eyes, or does he love me for who i really am? It shouldn't be about the packaging, but often it is. What really counts is the heart.

Patience and Commitment

Having maturity and understanding in a relationship is so important. To the ladies reading this ask your selves. Does he only come around when he wants sex? Is he available when i am hormonal and not fun to be around? Do you ladies find yourselves saying or thinking the following "I am glad we had fun a night or two ago, but It is now when i am at my lowest i need you my love the most ".

In Control and Confident

When I say in control, I don't mean controlling; a good man is a logical thinker who doesn't let a difficult situation rattle him. He is able to stay calm and cool and resolve a problem in a systematic analytical manner.

Passion and Romance

A man who understands a lady knows passion begins long before the bedroom . A lady likes to be appreciated and romanced though out the day. It don't necessarily mean buying her things. What I am talking about are a hugs, kisses, telling her how much she is loved. So to you guys out there who think I will ignore her all day and we will have sex tonight forget it; she may go along with it but you are only satisfying yourselves. Women's needs are emotional men are physical.

While it is important for a man to be employed, mentally stable, Drug and Disease free equally as important, if not more important, we ladies also want someone who understands our emotional needs.

Great Article. I do believe it should be 50/50. Yes sadly it does not always work that way, but I do believe it can still exist. Getting to be best friends first usually results in long lasting good relationships.

Hi, I agree that when we meet someone, we do hold back on our bad habits, I also think that the way we feel at the time we meet someone is completely different from the way we feel years later. i think that is why a lot of marriages don't work, because one of the partners moves on with their emotions and feelings, and the other one stays stuck in a rut and never changes. this has happened to me before. really good points here, cheers nell

These are great qualities in a man. We ladies have to be strong to know when to keep going and when to quit (unless you're built for constant emotional roller coaster rides). voted and rated.
