What do men really want?
The biggest fear men have when entering a relationship is that they won’t have enough time with their friends. Playtime aside, what are some of the things men look for when choosing a partner. Good sex? Intimacy? Physical attractiveness? I set about asking a few men to describe their ideal partner. Without further adieu, here are some of the responses.
S. 44| Civil Servant
“She has to have ambition and exude class. I love when she can phase into street and be social seemlessly. She has to have genuine characteristics: be real! Be spontaneous,a girl that is friendly without being too friendly.”
Tony, 54 | Military (Retired)
I want a woman who loves sex and has a pleasant personality, great sense of humor, ambitious and great in the kitchen. Oh, did I mention she has to love sex!
Miller, 60 | Public Sector
At this time in my life, my ideal mate would be a rich old woman with a bad heart.
Jermaine, 31 | Accounting
Someone who is down to earth and has a little sense of humour. They can also put up with my foolishness and stupidity at times. Also someone who recognizes the importance of building a life together
Kevin, 45 | Sports Management
At this point in my life there is no ideal mate. My reason is that, people pretend at time and over time they reveal their true self. For me, genuiness, simplicity, respect and adaptability are some things I would look for.
Matt, 32 | Teacher
My ideal mate is curious and open-minded. She must have a good sense of humor. She should be strong and independent. I want to be with someone who likes spending time with me. And my ideal mate should be very attractive to me! (wink)
K. 42, | Laborer
The person must be honest and generous. Not necessarily but better to have a good sense of humor and be able to laugh at my shitty puns and sexually be into bdsm.
Tanner, 26| Educator
My ideal partner is someone who I can get along easily with. Having a similar sense of humor is something important as well. I also want them to be loyal and trustworthy. If they’re cute and smart that’s a plus too.
Stephen, 30| Investigator
She is an intellect and an ‘ediat’ when she needs to be either around me or other individuals. She has to be understanding to my shortcomings. I want a woman who is Independent in every sense of the word. She needs to be supportive of my drive and ambition. And she should offer criticism to my motives and/or plans. I want her to be my sounding board. I also want her to be a nurturer and caregiver.
Jayce, 30| Educator
Mmmm. I’m not really into dating anyone at the moment. I’m more so happy being self partnered because I’m solely focused and committed to my career goals, traveling the world and establishing myself. #selflove
Nicholas, 31| Teacher
Someone who is kind to others. Someone who is patient and understanding. And someone who will stand by your side no matter what.
Frank, 24 | Bartender
I want someone who is independent, open minded and honest. I want a partner. Someone who is comitted and wants to see our relationship grow.
