Her Romantic Needs

I'm sure this will come as a shocker, but women and men actually have different needs. And when it comes to romance they are also different.

If you are only starting in love you probably don't know that she is thinking you're the knight in shining armor that came to save her from her misery. She is going to be disappointed, right? But although you can't just magically make all things right in her life, there are a few things that can be key to your happiness. Because, you know: “If mama ain't happy, nobody is happy.”

Romantic Need #1: To Find an Inspirer in Her Man

Surprised it's not about candy and flowers? A woman wants a man ready to be her protector, who cares about her security and physical needs but even more, she needs someone who cares about the well-being of her very soul.

You know those couples that are in sort of a healthy competition. Or those that are in it together, encouraging each other, mutually respecting each other. She needs that kind of support. And she needs to be able to admire you.

Romantic Need #2: To Feel Safe and Secure with Him

A woman needs to know her husband will stick with her for life, that he is committed to love her and accept her. This makes her feels safe to give him the gift of who she is; to open up.

A key point here is faithfulness. She needs to know that romantic intimacy is going to be between her and her husband. And he will not share any personal details with his friends.

Romantic Need #3: To Have Intimate Conversations

Grunts and one-word answers to questions won't cut it! While dating you share deep conversations, you feel heard, known, understood. If this dies away, then the relationship tends to die away. Many men gifted at deep discussions during courtship seem to lose this talent later.

Make a commitment to let her in on the details of your life — not just facts, but feelings.This leads to emotional intimacy, which lead to a woman being much more interested in sexual intimacy, too.

Romantic Need #4: To Receive Touch and Hear Gentle Words

Before marriage, two can hardly keep their hands off each other. After the wedding touch is soon forgotten. Yet, there is great power in tender touch, whether a long, full-body hug, a lingering kiss, or a gentle caress of her face that says, "I love you, and I care for you tenderly."

Gentle words are just as powerful. What could you praise in your wife? Her charm; femininity; beauty; faithfulness to you, your children; her love, faith; hard work; personality; character; her advice and counsel; friendship; desirability? Try and see what happens.
