What Guys Love About Their Women–Surprising Poll Reveals All, Part One


A recent poll was done among regular guys and a few celebrities to find out what they loved about the women in their lives—wives, longtime girlfriends and other categories of significant others. The results might surprise more than a few women. Guys say that figuring out the female psyche is a challenge; after you read what guys like about their ladies, you might say the same about men. That is because several of these responses would not have been picked if women were given a multiple-choice test about what men want. However, the responses speak for themselves.
Here is a sampling of a couple of trends and conclusions that can be gleaned from the poll. Here are what guys love about their ladies:
1. Guys love tender touches at night, too, and it’s not all about sex.
Who knew? Guys supposedly want to simply have sex, get it over with, then roll over and sleep, their needs entirely met. Yet, the poll indicated that guys like all kinds of non-sexual touches in bed, especially near sleep time. One guy mentioned that his wife always wakes up to kiss him goodnight when he comes to bed, no matter how tired she is or how deeply she seems to be sleeping. That little tender kiss, even while you’re half-asleep, sends a deep message of love to a guy.
Another guy mentioned that no matter where he is located on the couple’s large bed, his wife finds a way to snuggle up against his body. Guys love this! Surprise, surprise—guys like to snuggle, too. They, too, like to be told through non-verbal language that they are desirable and that they are loved.
What changes should you make in those minutes before you fall asleep with your guy, on those nights when you do not have sex? Do you need to give little kisses more frequently? Do you need to establish a routine where you caress then kiss your man each night before you both enter dreamland? Try a little tenderness in bed just before you both fall asleep. According to the responses of the poll, your guy will love it. Guys love to be loved, too, and that can include a whole range of actions apart from sex and foreplay.
2. Guys love your nutty sense of humor.
The poll also showed again and again that men mentioned their ladies’ crazy sense of humor as being something that they adored in their women. So, let it rip! Your unique comic moments will endear you to your guy. We’re, of course, assuming that you both have already established that you love each other deeply. Once you’re safe in that realm, you can do just about anything to be funny, and your guy will appreciate it.
Poll after poll shows that women love men with a good sense of humor. Well, men love women with a well-developed sense of humor also, and it sounds like the quirkier, the better.
One guy shared that he loves his wife’s songs about him, which come complete with bizarre titles that only make sense to the couple, further reinforcing their bond. The songs that a couple shares don’t have to be ones found on the jukebox or those remembered for playing on the radio during your first date. Unleash your inner songwriter and tease your guy in a non-mean manner. He’ll eat up your creativity and laugh for weeks or years about your silly lyrics.
Another guy said that when his girlfriend cracks up at her own jokes and then continues to laugh for several minutes afterward, he can’t help but laugh, too. Life is hard. Guys like to laugh. Many men will tell you that they like to surround themselves with people who make them laugh. Be one of those people! The more “out there” your humor is, the more it will probably appeal to your man. Activate your funny bone and see how your man responds. He’ll appreciate the comic relief.

Relationships between Women


Love relationships between women and men are difficult, complex, and sometimes overwhelming, and authors, experts, and friends are always willing to offer advice on how to overcome them. In a welcome and overdue twist on the old theme, many authors have decided over the years to explore the intense nature of friendships between women, so widely experienced yet traditionally downplayed.
Experts suggest that women's friendships are rooted in the bonds between a mother and a daughter. Subconsciously competing for the love of the same man, husband and father, the relationship of future women friends is directly related to the experience a woman had while growing up. With this backdrop of keen identification, a woman can often "feel" the very pain or joy that her friend may be experiencing. But along with this astonishing intimacy, however, come the usual strains of mutual dependency between mother and daughter. As numerous examples illustrate, a woman may be scarred for life and never forget the devastation she might feel in case she gets betrayed or abandoned by another woman. As many women can regretfully attest, these negative and stressful feelings are generally associated with the pain of ending a love relationship with a man due to a friend's act.
Most frequent than in men's friendships, feelings of jealousy, competition, anger and guilt inevitably arise in women's friendships, due to the threat they feel in balancing a relationship with another woman and yet maintain a healthy, open and intimate relationship with a man. Moreover, these competitive feelings might arise when one friend gets a new job while another does not succeed the same, if one falls in love and the other feels extremely lonely at that time, in case one wants to have a child and has yet to stand painfully by her friend's pregnancy. Psychotherapists advocate that women friends openly acknowledge the negative feelings between them in the belief that differences, if are successfully sorted out, can lead to a much fuller friendship.
If you are interested in exploring this provocative subject and you feel secure enough to discuss it with your female friend, try opening up some of the hidden and more difficult aspects of your friendship and you will probably be amazed with the things you will discover for the other person's inner feelings apart from your own thoughts. In fact, such matters are daily the main subject of discussion between many women friends who want to explore them further, with the help of their good female friend.

What Guys Love About Their Women


This brings us to part two of what guys love about their women, as revealed in a large poll done by a leading women’s magazine to determine what can be gleaned by what men mention first about their ladies, what they love and what they find most attractive.
Obviously, you can’t become someone that you are not, but you might be able to make a few minor changes that will help your relationship and make you more appealing to your guy. That might mean displaying your crazy sense of humor more frequently or kissing him every night before he goes to sleep, as part one of this series shared. Nothing major, but both changes could be significant to strengthening your connection to your man.
Here are two more somewhat surprising likes that guys shared about their ladies:
3. Guys love when women make an attempt to understand what matters to men.
Men in the poll responses mentioned frequently that they deeply appreciated their women evidencing some familiarity with what was important to them, whether that be sports or favorite TV shows or movies or whatever your man is into. One guy mentioned that even though his wife had never seen Star Wars, she nevertheless bought him a light saber for his birthday. Amazing love, how can it be? You don’t necessarily need to run out to the store and buy the latest version of your guy’s favorite video game, but if you show at least a little bit of interest in your guy’s passions, he will definitely notice. And, hopefully, he’ll begin (or continue) to show interest in your passions, too.
Another guy said that his wife tries to talk sports with him, and even though she doesn’t make a whole lot of sense, he loves it and never corrects anything that she says. In other words, guys like it so much when you enter into their worlds for a few moments at a time, that even if you make nonsensical comments about those worlds, your man will eat it up. Make an effort to find out at least a little bit about your guy’s hobbies. What can you discover about woodworking? Deer hunting? Tennis? Even a surface knowledge of your man’s favorite pastimes will go deep in communicating to him that you are interested in who he is as a person, and even though you might think his obsession with Star Trek is a little weird, you are not going to judge him for it. What you are basically communicating to your man is that you love him for who he is. That’s always a winning message!
4. Guys love women who help with the navigation.
This should come as no surprise to those who have ridden shotgun while their guy drives. This sometimes testy partnership has been fodder for many a comedy routine and, unfortunately, many a story about a huge fight. The fact is guys like women who do pay a bit of attention while they are on the road together. That doesn’t mean that you have to have eagle eyes every second that your car is zooming down a desolate highway. It does mean that an extra set of eyes can be helpful at crucial times.
Even though the widespread usage of the GPS has changed the vital role of the co-pilot (for the guys who use a GPS, at least), not even a super-sleek electronic navigator can spot all the perils of the road. One guy mentioned that his wife always seems to spot state troopers before he does, which has certainly saved him a hefty amount in speeding fines. Other guys love it when their woman is able to read street signs while they are driving, helping them to figure out where they need to turn. Heck, some guys need a woman around to even understand when he is to turn in obeying the GPS (there are many, many confirmations of this phenomenon).
If you can devote just a few minutes to helping your guy see all that he should as he drives, he will love you for it. Again, he’s not expecting you to be a human GPS, but even a little bit of help can make the difference between him being a very frustrated driver who is again lost and the guy who shows up nice and calm for his first visit with your parents. Your role in the passenger’s seat can make that difference.
