To All Women Out There: What Do You Wish Men Know About You?

I want a man to know I'm not stupid, or inferior to him. That I'm not with him to be his mother. I want him to know I've had a life before I met him, and survived nicely. I want him to know that even if he gives me all sorts of material things, that won't make me love him more. I want him to know that he can actually show a little humility, a little understanding that I may need to be alone...not because I don't want to be with him, but because I just need to be alone sometimes. I want him to know that when he shows me a little respect, gives me some space, that he dosn't take everything personal (like it's all about him), when he dosn't expect me to react the way he thinks I should...well, for me, those are all major turn-ons. If he actually understands these things. I've met few men that seem to understand these things. So I'm by myself, now.

As far as myself and my boyfriend go, I wish I could find the right way to explain, or that he just understood that when I am mad or upset about something, I am not mad at him, and I am just quiet or distracted because of my own thoughts. As well as that, I'd love it if, when I tell him that something he is doing bothers me, he wouldn't take it as a personal attack and get offended. I think this goes for both men and women. For example, sometimes I am trying to do something, like cook or have a nap, and he will insist on showering me with little kisses or conversation, and gets upset if I seem distracted, or ask him to stop. It's never that I don't love his affection and conversation, but sometimes I don't feel like it. We do have great communication and trust, though, which is a major thing and contributes greatly to our relationship's success thus far =D

i wish men would know that there's more to us women than our physical appearance. men usually are judgmental base on the looks and a lot dont bother to know a girl, her personality and all that. i wish men would know that sometimes when we say no, it means yes. and he just have to patient to know the real answer. ^__^;; i mean, we women are known to be my-mouth-says-so-but-my-heart-doesnt-says-so type, so men should be sensitive of this. they shouldnt believe on the first thing that we say. and also, most women are fickle-minded, we tend to change our mind often. LOL

I am straightforward. I tell what I need, like and want. Just like I'm always forthcoming with what I appreciate in my other. From little things to the big. Of course I make every attempt to respond to the needs and wants of significant others. In my husband's case he never speaks up and tells me. I don't know is usually the response when I ask. I've told him I enjoy compliments and love notes but thats just not his thing. He tells me he loves me by making me pancakes at 12 AM if I suddenly get the urge or if he just wants to do something nice. Or bringing me home wraps. He buys me treats that he knows I like from the store (he's very food oriented). He's gotten me two cats because he knows I love cats. When my neck or back hurts he'll send time really rubbing BenGay in. Like that. Still I'm word oriented person. This is the first thing I let lovers know - not that I've had a lot. My first boyfriend was perfect at this - he was perfect in every way - but the relationship was crowded with Mr Hyde - my second loved things like physics and wasn't a wordy person but he'd write me love notes still and send emails. I guess I'll just have to get used to the fact that Daniel shows his love in different ways. I like creative ways to place love notes - on the bathroom mirror so I see it stepping out of the shower - on sticky notes - all over the house - in my favourite book of poems. A mix tape - or dvd.

A woman may be tough but deep inside she needs care and affection...and a woman isn't only a babymaker..lol!

I wish my boyfriend was aware of how independent I am and that he should be greatful that I take such good care of him. I do a lot for the boy and I dont think he realizes how great I am.

Well ailema4ever,I think men are very clever.By saying sweet words they make woman struggle and if we talk about married men then everything is finish for a woman.She will be in his grip.They know woman are kind and soft hearted they cannot give any pain to them.

I wish men will also consider women as equal to them in all aspects. That they should not treat women like a material possession. That even women should be submissive to men, they will not abuse their authority. But rather treat women fairly. because just like them, women are human,too. Can think and feel.

I wish my husband could understand the things I say without misinterpreting anything. If only he can get what I mean and what I want to say we wouldn't have any misunderstandings and argues. Also, it would be great if he knew exactly when to express his feelings to me, tell me sweet words and compliments the exact moment I really need it.

Contrary to popular belief WE DO NOT WANT TO COOK EVERYDAY! LOL...so many men still have that mindset that a womans place is in the kitchen. Don't expect me to jump and run into the kitchen and start cooking just because your hungry. God gave you 2 arms, 2 legs, with hands and feet already attached..sometimes we just want you to get up and do it yourself!

I want they konw that I am very kind and need people's care.

Folks, Communication is the KEY here, you need to let him or her know. My husband is just like other guys, he doesn't get it all the time, but he tries. That goes a long way. So be patient and kind to each other, and Keep each other first in your lives!
