7 Simple Things Every Guy Wants In A Relationship
It’s a fact that guys are not as into feelings as women are. They won’t break down and open up to you, not even after you’ve been together for quite some time. They would rather keep their mouth shut and hope you’ll get what they are thinking.
But their silence doesn’t mean they are completely satisfied with your relationship. They have things they want you to do, but they won’t ask for them or let you know what they are. And women are the ones who are complicated, huh?
I guess some of them are really too shy to ask for something they want or he is too scared that you are going to reject his ideas. Nevertheless, it’s hard to make a relationship last even without having to guess what your man’s needs are.
But, don’t worry. Here is a list of things every guy definitely wants in a relationship. Check it out and find out what your guy is missing so much of and make your relationship everlasting.
1. Respect
You could say that men appreciate respect even more than love itself. If you don’t respect him and what he really is, then he will think that you don’t even care and so what’s the point in staying together? If you don’t care about his career, his hobbies or the people he hangs out with, you don’t respect him.
You are partners in crime and if you don’t support each other and show mutual respect, then how can you go together through life? Will it be possible to solve the problems that are waiting for you together if you don’t respect each other? This is what he wants the most, but will never tell you.
2. A true partner
He wants to have you by his side to do things he likes with him. He will never try to convince you to do something with him because, naturally, you would resist even more. That’s why he keeps his mouth shut and maybe hints to you about what he really wants.
He wants someone to talk to about the things he likes and he wants you to understand when he needs his space so that you back down and leave him to solve things himself. In other words, he wants someone who can understand him, someone who is his true partner in everything he does.
3. A sexual connection
Men connect better with women through sexual actions, while women connect better emotionally by talking. That doesn’t have to mean that you have to put out regularly to make him satisfied, not at all. They find their security in anything sexual you do or usually just indicate.
So, if you are on the bed next to him, hug him and toss a leg over him. Move your fingers down his back, show him that you want him. That will be more than enough to make him feel wanted and ironically, that’s exactly what he wants.
4. Personal space
Sometimes men need you to just leave them alone. If they are struggling with something, they won’t say it out loud or seek advice and help; instead they will retreat to their man cave and deal with their problems on their own. If you insist on finding out what is bothering him, you are going to pressure him even more, which will make him close-up completely.
Don’t worry, you will find out what is happening because he will come to you first but only when he is ready. Don’t push him into doing anything because you will get the opposite of what you want.
5. Spontaneity

No one wants their relationship to become stale and boring, which is why you need a bit of excitement now and then. Men want you to be fun and adventurous. They want to do crazy things with you, especially when the both of you are young.
They want to have those moments with the person they love the most to cherish when they grow old. Don’t take the fun out of your relationship and sometimes, even if you don’t feel like it, accept his suggestions and go with the flow. It will make both of you happy.
6. Approval
Men don’t need verbal praise like most women do. Let’s face it, we like to be complimented every now and then but men work in a different way. We’ve already said that they are not as good at expressing their feelings through verbal communication but expressing with gestures is a whole different thing. As they express themselves in that way, they want you to return the favor.
Don’t tell them you love them, show it to them. Show them what you like about them and how you respect them and what they do. Make him feel attractive in the way only you know how. This will help him feel loved and ‘approved of’.
7. Security
Your man will open up to you completely if you make sure he feels safe with you. You need to show him that you care about your relationship like he does. You need to show him that you are in it for the long haul, that he is not just some casual thing, but the real deal.
He will feel secure and therefore loved when you touch him and show him intimacy. He will feel secure when you stand by his side for better or for worse. He will feel secure when you support him and the things he does. He will feel secure when you show him you trust him.
