The question of what do men want in a relationship has puzzled us women long into the mists of time! Because whilst I am sure that we agree that men and women are equal, that does not mean they are the same, and these differences between the sexes really show up dramatically in relationships.
What Do Men Want In A Relationship… The Difference Between The Sexes
Over time women come up with all kinds of strategies to better understand their men, but often times when you do these kind of strategies in the real world you often find that they come up short, and you are still left with the question of what do men want in a relationship, and how can you give it to them. (This is the best practical guide I have found)
The thorn that stops the rose being quite as beautiful in this whole debate about relationship dynamic’s is that whilst you want to be the best partner that you possibly can be, that you don’t want to be a doormat, and you don’t want your partner to take you for granted. So in some ways there is a little bit of a balancing act that is going on, and it needs to be borne in mind.
There is a very real sense that you have to first decide what YOU want in a relationship before worrying so much about what men want, because fundamentally you are in control.
There are literally billions of men! And so a better place to start is to decide what you want in a relationship, and then find men that suit you.
Of course, we all know that attraction works in funny ways, and so we end up going out with (or even marrying) men that seem as though are diametrically opposite to the type of men that we should be in a relationship with. And so we find ourselves back at square one asking “What do men want in a relationship?” because we are fundamentally confused by our own partner.
The good news is that even if you find yourself without a clue in the world as to what men want in a relationship, that there are guides that can help to show you.
