Ok, I realize my title is a little vague. But, I have been wondering exactly what women want in a man. I mean, they are just very complicated. Can someone please describe what their man has to have or be like. Basically, what is your ideal man.

He is someone that I can always rely on,trust,laugh with even if that laugh is because of something one of us did that was totally stupid. He will hold me while I cry, and yet is secure enough to let me hold him while he cries. Someone who with a mere look can turn me on even after he has ticked me off so bad that I can picture my skillet upside his head! Him taking and holding my hand because he wants to means more to me then any purchased gift. Someone who's snoring drives you absolutely crazy, but yet you can't fall asleep without them next to you! He is your life's partner.

I think its very important that a man is always there for you no matter what. Rather it be to listen and talk or giving you a ride to work because your car broke down. Women want a man who is dependable and reliable. A man should always be supportive, open minded and able to compromise. Because men and women are so different a man should never disregard a woman's feelings or ideas and be open to what she has to say even if they do not agree. Women can be sensitive at times so a man should be positive, encouraging, and polite. Compliment a woman on something new that she is wearing, tell her something good that you like about her (maybe it was the pasta she made the night before), and even if it seems old fashioned open the door for her. Thank her for little things that she does. Simple little sweet things that you say and do go a long way. Women always like to feel beautiful and appreciated.

Ideal is rarely what anyone gets. Stop wondering about what women want in a man (you will get 3 billion answers if you wander the world) and start being yourself. Work on who you are, your talents and interests and views about life. Present them in bits and pieces while finding out what hers are. In other words, don't monopolize and brag and try to impress, but don't be a total blank slate either, waiting for her to call the shots. And if you like someone, let it be known, with exuberance! 'I had more fun talking with you for 10 minutes than I've had in 10 years of talking.' 'There's something about you that just makes me feel - I don't know... really really good.' There are ways that don't have to make someone uncomfortable.

A great paying job and lots of great sex...

No seriously though, I agree with Joypulv, you really are going to get many different answers on this.

Focus on being yourself and a woman will fall in love with you for YOU, not what you have or can offer.

Yes, women can be complicated, AS men sometimes. However there is nothing more appealing to me then a man who is him true self.

Hope this helps.

Girls are a species that most of the time are heartless... they don't even know what they want half the time.. you coul dhave a perfect relationship going and outa no where they will say "icannt be in relationship" they do what they want and I honestly think they do not have many feelings at all. Just my opinion
