- Why should I remind you that “I love you?” I already told you once.
- Being respected is more important to me that being loved.
- I hate arguing with you. I’d much rather find a compromise.
- I love long hair. Sorry, but I do.
- When you speak softly, I can’t help but listen.
- I need to be told “no” sometimes. Not a lot, but every now and again reminds me that you are expensive.
- Please don’t ask me how you look unless you’re willing to trust my answer.
- My eyes notice other women a lot more when you are upset with me.
- When you’re happy with me I can’t help but want to please you.
- If I don’t feel I can make you happy, it makes me feel less than a man.
- I expect you to be ready when I pick you up.
- Cigarettes make any woman look cheap and easy.
- I’m scared if I let a woman inside my heart, she’ll take advantage of me.
- If you can’t stand up to me when I’m a brat, you’re too weak for me to open up to when I’m upset.
- Sitting quietly next to me after you’ve made me a meal is your get-out-of-the-doghouse-free ticket. You’ll be surprised how quickly I can forgive.
- You did something hurtful. If I never bring it up, I’m considering leaving you.
- I don’t read minds. Remember, I’m not a woman.
- You may know fashion, but I wish you’d dress to please me, not other women.
- If I’m losing my hair, it’s not funny. Would you like me to joke about your weight?
- When I talk to you about golf and you act bored, it would be nice for you to remember all the times I’ve listened to you talk about what is important to you.
- The woman I love is easy to please. She appreciates the effort I put into making her happy, even if I get the details wrong.
- You look hot in a dress.
- I hate being told what to do when I don’t ask for help. It makes me feel like you’re my mother.
- If you sleep over, I might eventually marry you, but I’m less motivated.
- During sex my ears are as sensitive to your words as your skin is to my touch.
- I need some type of signal or cue to walk across the room and approach you. What if you’re married!?
- It makes me feel like you trust me when you ask for my advice.
- It feels competitive when you insist on being in charge.
- I’ll do anything for sex; even commit to you for life.
- I want every man to envy me when we arrive as a couple. Please don’t let yourself go.
- When I’m upset I am very tone sensitive. How you say it is more important than what you say.
- I hate it when you minimize, ignore or tell me I don’t mean my compliments. It makes me want to stop giving them.
- I’m more insecure than you think. Why do you think I need your respect so much?
- I don’t always know how I feel. That’s why I don’t tell you.
- I don’t need you to do things for me. What I crave is being able to please you.
- If I do one thing and say something contradictory – go with my actions – that will always tell you what’s in my heart.
- I find myself wanting to please you when you simply smile at me without asking for something (like a favor).
- I really don’t want to hear about any of your ex-boyfriends, regardless of the point.
- If I don’t share what I’m thinking, it’s because I don’t think you will listen without interrupting.
- I don’t like to argue and I don’t like to guess what’s wrong. Just tell me so I can fix it.
- I love it when you put your hair in a pony tail. Yes, it’s a Freudian thing.
- Don’t ask me, “Are you going to wear that?” when I’m already dressed.
- A gentleman should always be respected by his lady in public, even if she is disagreeing with him.
- If you don’t believe you’re pretty, you won’t believe me when I tell you, no matter how many times I say it.
- It isn’t how much you weigh, it’s that your body is proportionate, which is so attractive.
- Sometimes I have weird, strange or very sexual thoughts. I don’t take them seriously and I don’t want to share them with you (or anyone).
- Sometimes you really don’t want to know what I’m thinking. See above.
- If you cheat on me, it is nearly impossible for me to get over it.
- I don’t remember everything about our relationship but that doesn’t mean I don’t love you.
- I need some time to myself to calm down when I’m upset so that I don’t say something I will regret.

some of these are some good reminders!
Current blog, fresh information, I read it from time to time!!
I find point number 2 interesting. Whilst it is very common for men to do just anything for sex, It very much depends on the man and the situation. I think a man who truly likes a woman will often delay sex in the early days of dating a woman. Why? Nervousness, not wanting to stuff things up, really likes the idea of a future with a women. In my opinion this often puts a woman in the position of wanting to bring sex into the equation before the man does. Often causing women to lead too much with sex, and give the wrong impression of themselves.
Something else to think about is this, men reach emotional intimacy with a woman through sex, women want the emotional intimacy before they have sex with a man. Makes you wonder where, do strike a balance?
FACT !!!
During after work drinks, few girl friends and I were talking about husbands and partners yesterday.I mean 'what actuallt men thinking'..We talked about most of the things on the list…So that means we wifes do understand the facts about men…:)
Most of these are ridiculous, whoever came up with these is a misogynistic dimwit.
While some of the points are true, the article is obviously written by a woman. There’s too much emotion, twisted logic, and double talk to have been written by a man. It’s a woman’s best guess as to what motivates a man thrown in with some obvious statements. Waste of time.
39, 46, 34, definitely number 7. Lot of good ones
What an idiot!
LOVE YOU!!!! xxxxxxxxxxxxxxxx
I was reading this and was feeling down. Then I read the second post ‘what an absolute teat’ and it restored my faith in humanity. Thank you captain just, my hero
what an absolute twat! i agree with about 3 or 4 of those statements.
i absolutely hate these kind of "articles"….mundane articles written by mundane, arrogant people with closed minds.
i really respect this….really. but what if the tables were turned……
I realized this article does not say much about men, but rather tells a woman how to behave around their partner.
Some points have this pattern :at first the arguement, then the mistake the woman has made.
Some other points are not universal at all (when it goes about preferences).
Some are simply idiotic and do not see the realtionship on an adult level(e.g. #35 and #43).
And I’ld like to point out #21….is this woman this point refers to a dog or a toddler?
And there are some points, which – rude spoken- tell women just to get their mind sorted
(e.g. #44).
IF this was written by a man, then only to make his life easier and not in order to make a better relationship…in my opinion
My My, this seems to have touched a nerve.
