Looks can hook a man, but what is it that keeps them wanting more, what traits does a woman have that makes them want to marry? After discussing the topic with some male colleagues, my brother and some of his friends, I noticed a particular trait that was consistent across conversations. There was agreement that the sexiest quality in a woman by far is independence.
Independent women are self-assured, assertive, play by their own rules and are low maintenance as partners. They are busy running their lives. They don't need anyone to validate who they are. They know when and what to give without being overbearing and have enough confidence to thrive on their own.
But wait…. remember in the movie, Think Like A Man, Candace reminded Lauren of an accusation thrown at her of being the man in the relationship because she was “too independent.” Are men speaking out of both sides of their mouth?
What do they want? Based on my conversations, finding the right woman is one of the most important decisions men make in life; some may even argue it is the most important.
Some of the traits I feel are important to men are:
1. Loyalty – you support them and you have their back
2. Spontaneous – keeping the spark alive
3. Honesty – you are a woman of your word
4. Sense of humor – you like to laugh and have fun
5. You have Friends – you don’t want to spend every minute with him
Post in the comments traits you think men love and appreciate in women when they are considering a long-term relationship?
