I think it is interesting how many women are answering this question.\n\nMost men want a commitment, but women think that men are incapable of commiting.  What men want is a low maintenance relationship, kind of like they want their lawnmowers.  Take it out once or twice a week to mow the lawn, keep the oil and filter clean, put gas in it everyonce in a while and it is happy to do its job.  Whenever you go into the garage, it is always in its place, just waiting for you.\n\nSome women are more like Space Shuttles when it comes to relationships.  They are tall, shiny and really fast. It takes so much to make a relationship with them work, you get her off the lauch pad once, and you don't want to do it again, and go back to mowing the lawn.\n\nNow you may think I'm joking around, but men are really simple creatures.  We want food, sex, beer and our hobbies and the knowledge that the woman we care for will always be there.  We don't want to constantly worry if she is content. When a woman stops expecting so much from her man will she truly find love for that man.  She will appreciate being taken out of the garage a lot, instead of being launched into space only once.  That what makes a relationship is the long term work and goals, not the short.\n\nMen are like little children, but that is okay, because little children can be really fun and affectionate.\n\nHope this helps, keep it simple, best of luck.

Awoman that can stand by my side and by herslf if needed. A woman that does not back down and is not a pushover .... someone that is most of all honest and trust worthy..... a woman that has goals that she knows she will reach ... a woman that appreciates me for me and not my possesions ... a lady that know how to use her body and please mine ... and if she doesn't is willing to be taught.... and above all a lady that does not compare me to any other man on this planet.... because I am me and no one else ..... i desire to be differnt than other men therefore I will never be like another man .... we may have things in common but I will never be your dad or uncle or grandfather or ex boyfriend .. and possibly not the man of your dreams ... but just good ol me ..... And if a woman can harness those qualities she's alright with me ..... plus a good cook can't hurt ... They say the way to a mans heart is thru his belly !!!! lol

You could potentially ask this question of a million women and get a million answers.  Some want a stud, some want an "average" guy, some want a successful white collar man, some want a "bad boy," some want a doormat they can push around...  It just depends on the woman you ask.\n\nI'd say at the most basic - things that SHOULD apply no matter which woman...\n\n1. BE YOURSELF - if you try to be who she wants you to be, you'll wind up miserable.  Be yourself and look for the woman that likes and respects that "you."\n\n2. BE HONEST - lies catch up with you sooner or later, and they will undermine any chance to trust each other.\n\n3. BE ABLE TO TAKE CARE OF YOURSELF - women by nature often want to be needed and enjoy being nurturing, but if you're too emotionally needy or unable to support yourself financially, you'll soon lose her respect, or she may get tired of having to play nursemaid.\n\n4. BE WILLING TO BE VULNERABLE - you can't truly love or be loved until you're open to taking the chance that you will get hurt sometimes.\n\n5. COMMUNICATE - you can't know her and she can't know you if you don't talk about who you are, what you believe, what you feel, and find out the same things about her.

I wanted a woman that would stimulate and challenge me. Someone that had similar interests to me so that we would be compatible, but not identical so that I could grow by learning about new things (as would she). She had to be attractive and sexy (though keep in mind that beauty is in the eye of the beholder), and she had to have a sense of humor because sometimes you just have to laugh at life. It is important that the woman have the same sense of core values that I do, you can differ on the little things but you want to be aligned in your basic beliefs, family had to be important to her because it is to me, and last but not least (and maybe several of these items are rolled up into this one) she has t obe a friend, someone that I enjoy being with and spending time with in a non-romantic way, because life consists of an overwhelming amount of moments like that...\n\nThank God for my wife who is all of that and more ...

Every MAN wants a "lady" while together in public, and a "slut" in the bedroom.\nBut most importantly a true, loyal, and honest partner in life.

They say beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder.....every woman has her own taste and while others might prefer taller men, a lot will be happy with a man of any height cos the most important thing is having someone who will love you and treat you right.

The amount varies with the woman. Most women love that a man can be skilled at good conversation, and love that a man can be poetic. However, that alone is usually not all that a woman wants in a man. Women generally want a man who can do that, and be a "man" besides. By that I mean he can be strong, physically and/or emotionally, one that can take care of himself, and her and her children. One that can be trusted, depended upon for support, both financial and emotional. One that can be kind, generous, wise and fit. But to find a man that can be all that, and that has good communication skills, and a poetic nature? Wow! That is an awesome combination. That is the kind of guy a woman could see sitting down with their daughter, playing barbies, and being happy doing so. But he could also go play football with their son, or talk with her about the world situation, the neighbors problems, or the beauty in just a single leaf or rain drop. That, in other words, is the best kind of man. A well rounded, intelligent, strong, independent, kind, fun man. So, generally speaking, women are quite highly enamored of men with those abilities.

Openess and honesty.  Same thing women want, at least in my opinion.  Guys, just like girls, get tired of all the games.  Eventually, after all the bouncing from one girl to another and all the sexual exploration, most guys are going to come to that point where they want to find somebody that is more than a sex toy, but also a companion and friend.  \n\nBasically, just be yourself, be willing to take an occassional risk(putting yourself out there, saying that deeply personal thing that you might be holding back), and time and nature will do the rest.  Guys may be pigs, but deep down, guys want to find a girl they can respect.  They want to find someone that will take the time to understand and get to know them.  THAT is the girl that a guy will decide to committ to, not the girl he got drunk and took home after knowing her for a day.  So, be yourself, take some emotional chances, and let him know how you feel!

Sense of humour, ability to laugh at himself, ability to converse with you as if you matter, expectation of a woman to be clever and to have ideas and wishes and needs.\n\nIf he's also good looking, that's a bonus.

No not really, men should know what they want...like you do...if a man gets controlled by a woman and is not happy... than he is a dumb $h!T...

He may like women of a certain height. He could be short and want someone shorter than him or tall and want someone closer to his height. Likely the same reason you ask any questions about someone's appearance before you meet them.

These are some that I look for in a man, and he better have all of these or it will not work for me, he can have more, but up want these up front:\n\nFaithful, this is the number one thing!!!\nsense of humor\naffectionate\nwants to work and be a good provider to me and the family\nhonesty, he has got to be honest\nwill communicate with me about everything,\nwilling to listen to me when I want to talk or have a problem,\ntalk to me about his feelings\nrespect, he has to have respect for him self and me\npatient, I am a slow learner so he has to have patients with me\nromantic, I want him to be romantic toward me, giving me             flowers and taking me out to eat from time to time\n\nI know this is not 10 but don't want to try for the impossible. I don't think there is a man out there that fits this any way.

You should expect that he will want her to be an individual with her own thoughts and beliefs...not someone who is waiting on a man to define who she should be.
