All women are different. They all want different things.
To say they want to be treated well rules out masochists.
To say they want excitement rules out homebodies.
Women are people.
Before you find out what women want, find out what ONE woman wants. That's a good place to start.

blah blah blah blah. the most intelligent responses in this thread include drinking. i support that answer as the most plausible solution for figuring out what women want.

neoinoakleys

EUREKA!!

I figured it out!!

I know what ALL women want!!

MY WALLET!!!

Really, though...I don't think that THEY know what they want. That is why we are all baffled by this question. Think about it, they say they want one thing, but who do they usually end up in relationships with?? Exactly the opposite....I am telling you, all women have NO idea what they really want...

There is no answer to this question....

Let me ask one question....this all sounds all warm and fuzzy, but would all this be ok coming from a 62 year old, pot-bellied, cigar-smoking, beer drinking, balding man? I am sure there is some element of looks in there somewhere. I am sure it doesn't hurt to somewhat resemble Freddie Prinze Jr, Val Kilmer, or Vin Diesel....right??

My last bitter, sarcastic post on this subject were my real feelings; my answer to "what do men want" would go something like this (bearing in mind I can't speak for all men). I would like to come home after beating my head against thewall at work, feeling like shit, checking out the new batch of bills that arrived in the mail, hearing that I have to buy a new dryer 'cause the 4 year old Maytag that I spent a shithouse of money to buy is unrepairable, finding out that I need a thousand dollars worth of transmission work on my Jeep, and still be able to wrap my arms around a woman and think "It's all worth it." It hasn't happened in 56 years; I don't see it EVER hapening.

I am the first to admit that to me inital chemistry between two people is vital. That is attraction. But you fall in love with someone for who they are not what they look like.

I want him to listen. I am very expressive. I say what I need very often. Sometimes I'm maybe a little demanding - You'll have to ask Dei37 if that's the case. But I need to be listened to. Not just heard but listened to acknowledged and the thing I need acted upon. My hubby is getting better at this every day. Listening to us as our needs change is the best. I know it's one of the hardest things but I think that's why it means so much to me. When Dei37 says something to me that tells me he heard me it makes me feel special.

Yeah... sadly to say I have to second that... I had the same thing happen to me... I won't get into my story, thats a totally different topic.

However, I do not agree that all women want to drive a knife into your back. I think that there IS someone out there that I can be totally happy with and in return make her totally happy. Just gotta keep looking.

On a serious note, the more mentally together each person is, the easier this question is to answer for both parties, because most of the time, none of us know what we REALLY want, and in the cases where we do, we don't know how to communicate it properly.

You'll never know what women want. At least that's what I think. Cause they'll never know what they want. Just like I'll never know what I want.

I want someone who respects my feelings and who will love me unconditionally....I want Romance, I want to be held tight every single night and know that he will protect me no matter what...I want him to let me do the same for him...I want to be kissed everyday, I want to be told he loves me everyday, I want to enjoy life with him and have him show me what he likes to do and what his hobbies are.... If he doesn't agree with me, I want him to tell me and work it out...I want him to open up and tell me what he is feeling...I want him to let me love him. Plus I want really great sex very often!

Is that all too much to ask for??

it''s an unrealistic goal for what women want... Every guy is human... now, some guys might embody most of what they are looking for, but not all... Just like guys... we want an incredibly hot virgin chick who knows everything when it comes to sex and can suck start a leaf blower... can cook, etc...

If this REALLY is what women want, then why is it that they spend their time dating the biggest sack of shit that they can get their hands on?

Edit: No, really, I'm not bitter. Honest!

Kind of a rough topic. All of the serious replies from the women basically include a guy giving her his entire heart, soul, and attention. This seems hard to me because I feel that it is extremely important for me to receive all of these. You say that there can be "mutual giving"? Well in my last relationship, I gave all of this and was basically thrown out because she thought I was desperate (she never said this, but it's what I have put together). I gave her my my love and attention that many you say is important to receive, and instead of cherishing what I gave her, she chose to suck it all in, dominate me for a while, then spit me out and move on as if she never knew me.And no, I never gave any love away because of desperation. I 'm a very caring person in general and love to tuck my lover into bed and make sure I let her know that I care for her, but I call some of you hipocrates (sp) because while some of you do "want" and "need" this kind of attention, most of you don't know how to handle it and seem to let the potential for taking the upper hand get to your heads.... I remain close friends with my ex girlfriend, however sometimes I think the fact that she keeps me around stregnthens my arguement; She knows that I truly love her and still has lots of love for me, but she's young and sometimes looks at me as "been there, done that". I understand this behavior and would love for her to date around so she can grow even more even if she still loves me as a lover, however I recomend to most guys to be extremely cautious in giving away their heart, even if it's mutual for the time being... you never know what she might chose to do with it.

I predict within seconds that you are going to be overcome by screams of "over generalisation" etc.

However, I agree with what you are saying, and know that it happens. I don't think that many people realise that they do this, can only give em the benefit of the doubt that they don't mean to be vindictive.

Oh and by the way, if you feel hurt, you're just an over sensitive pussy!

-Ever-

Generalisation? Do you think you can sum up the entire world's population of women without generalising? Hence why I used words like "Some women" and such...

And I say you're wrong about feeling hurt. We both mutually gave our love to one another, and after about 2 1/2 years, she chose to grasp mine and take advantage of it. Am I an oversensitive pussy in general? Yes. However I feel justified saying that what she did would make lots of men hurt.

Ooops! Appologies, the oversensitive pussy comment was supposed to be alot more obviously sarcastic! Of COURSE you would feel hurt, but many people wouldn't see that!

The more women I meet (I'm only 20 years old mind you~) the more I am convinced that most women want the same thing.

To be treated like garbage.

It doesn't seem enough to them that a guy is caring and willing to do damn near anything for them. No no, you seemingly need to be loud, obnoxious, rude to her, and generally a tard to get a decent woman these days.

Of course, I could be wrong (hopefully I am), and I'm quite sure there are tons of women out there who would appreciate a "nice guy" I guess those type just don't live where I live.

(No offense to the ladies out there, but I just went through a stupid nasty break-up, and I'm rather bitter, can you tell? )

-Ever-

I totally support this. While I can think of a handful of women who really do want to be treated with utmost respect (IE: the actual men they date/marry are kind to them....) , I find more and more women to want the kind of men you're describing. I think it has much to do with their natural motherly instincts and might feel obliged/complete when they have an obnoxious man to take care of and tender to...

well duh

having not read all of the 70+ posts:

there's only thing women want en mass... confidence.

have confidence in your self, and carry a confident attitude and women will be responsive to you.

everything else is circumstantial.... romance and sh1t is nice, but the reason that it is percieved that all the good women go out with douchbags is because all women are attracted to men who are independant and of strong charactor. Not all indepentand men with strong charactor are as5holes, but have you ever seen a wormy and elusive nerd with a great women?

If your nice, and confident in yourself, you have nothing to loose.

If a woman says she knows what she wants, like flowers, romance and bending over backwards type stuff, she'll be dissapointed when that doesn't satisied her. That shit is fine, by all means, but it's not going to make you, or her, fall in love.

pigmann

In my experiance women fall into three catagories. Totally messed up in the head, taken by another guy, or a combination of the two. Maybe I'm wrong, but I can list all the women I've ever known and tell you which catagory they fit in.
