What
makes the perfect girlfriend? Is she the girl next door with gorgeous
good looks and an impressive bosom? Well, not exactly. Contrary to what
you might think, most guys aren't looking for a supermodel. They're just
looking for their perfect match: a woman who's down-to-earth, sweet and
sensitive to his needs.
Here
are ten attractive traits that every man keeps in mind when deciding if
the woman (ie. you) sitting across the dinner table from him at that
first date is girlfriend material.
1. Confidence Take
it from the guys, nothing is sexier than a woman who's comfortable in
her own skin. If you're guilty of meekly asking lines like: "Does this
skirt make my thighs look fat?" ... stop asking. If you're constantly
needing his reassurance that you're beautiful, he may start asking
questions himself.
2. Intelligence Acting
like a bimbo loses it's novelty to men after high school. What men want
in a girlfriend is a woman who can stand as his equal. So be the smart,
savvy woman you are! To him, it's a total turn-on.
3. Unmaterialistic Yes,
he wants to be your knight in shining armor. And yes, he wants to treat
you like the princess you are … but that doesn't give you license to
act like one. Allow him the luxury of treating you with romantic dinners
and surprise baubles without having to demand them of him. He'll be
relieved that he doesn't have to try so hard and surprisingly, this will
inspire him to rise to the occasion when he doesn't have to dedicate
his whole paycheck to lavish tokens of his love for you.
4. Spontaneity One
of the first things to go in a relationship is the spontaneity. You get
stuck in your Friday night dinner dates and you lose that spark you had
when you first started dating each other. Don't lose it! Men love a
woman who can do things spur-of-the-moment.
5. Laid-Back What's
one of the best things you can do for your relationship with him?
Relax. Just relax. When you come home from a long, hard day at work and
see those dishes piling up in the sink, we know you have the urge to
lash out at him. Instead, try to let it go for the night. No man likes a
nag and every man likes a woman who can let her hair down and doesn't
sweat the small stuff. A relationship is solid when you're able to relax
with each other.
6. Playfulness Guys
like a girl who laugh at their jokes, but isn't mindless and isn't
always serious about everything. Just as we mentioned that men like a
woman who can forgo nagging him about the dishes, they like a woman who
can joke about the dishes too. Biting remarks and snappy comebacks are
just the witty repartee to keep the spark between you in your
relationship. And hey, isn't laughter the best aphrodisiac?
7. Sensuality We've
already mentioned before that it's not all about your looks (albeit,
that's a good motivator for some men) — it's more about an air of
sexiness and confidence that will draw his eyes to you when you enter
the room. Embrace your femininity.
8. Honesty If
he can't trust you — how can he ever see you as his girlfriend ... and
eventual spouse? Keep things open and honest in your relationship. A
little white lie over flirty texts with an old guy friend from college
can spiral out of control very quickly into a full-blown fight ... and
breakup.
9. Independence Dating
a driven, passionate woman? So hot. Babysitting a stage five clinger?
Not so much. No man wants a girlfriend they have to reassuringly text,
call or visit every five minutes. Learn to give your guy his space — or
he may break up with you to get it.
10. Supportive As
clichéd as it is, some men want to be caretakers... but even the
strongest of men want a soft place to fall. He wants to know that you'll
support him and stand by him in his life choices, whether it's changing
careers or moving to a new city. Show your support in small gestures
with a quick "I love you" text when he heads off for his morning commute
and listen to him after a hard day's work. Be supportive — but not
suffocating. The last thing you want is to remind him too much of his
mother.
