Okay so, this has always bothered me. I need to know.

What is it that men want from a girl/relationship?

What qualities? What "type"? I know alll men are different but you probably all have some of the same qualities that you look for. I know us women do.

But I find men are hard to understand and hard to read.

Does she have to have a good sense of humor? Attractive? Confident?

Or is it a more crucial quality that not many women have?

What exactly makes a man feel that he wants to be with a woman for the rest of his life? What makes him KNOW that she is the ONE.

That's hard to explain don't even try to undrstand us as men.
Trust me we been gave up on trying to understand you all as women
Believe me it's a difficult question cause we ask the same thing.

Read the book called - "Why Men Won't Listen and Why Women Can't Read Maps" By Allan Pease it's a good one.

Loyalty, compassion and respect. TRUST! FOOD! And to know that you need them as they need you. Great sex, But that's me. LOL

Men are easy... its women that are hard to figure out.

And in addition to what Greg Quinn just said... bring us the occasional beer. :D

A woman that believes in them, and honors them while they are in your presence and not. A woman who will also honor the mans name by good conduct and moral value. A woman who respects herself. Guys tend to like a clean girl, though some aren't that picky.
Also, laid back is a big thing, men don't like control freaks.
A woman who is not quick to anger. ------Stability---- Huge thing! A man would like to think that even through his moments of instability his love will be there to steady him.
Confidence is also a big thing, but that goes under stability...
Ah, and men definitely do like little surprises and gestures to show you love them. Maybe not as blatantly as women, but things like coming home to a CLEEAN house and a bed made with crisp clean sheets, and candles, will happy up a guy just as quick as any chick.

That's what I think... :)

The important things are honestly, confidence, straightforwardness, empathy, no head games and don't be moody. If you exhibit these traits you'll have to fight the men off with a stick.
