Ladies, Here Are The Real Things Guys Want From You

It is true that men generally have great expectations from their ideal women –
there are some unique features and attributes he desires and some others he
cannot tolerate or withstand.
It is also true that as men are different, so are their preferences for their women.
Some men like independent women who are very ambitious; some prefers women
with good character, while others simply want women who can satisfy them
sexually.
Here are things men desires from their women:
Adewole Okesina wants his woman to be presentable and one that possesses a
good home training.
He said "She should know how to relate with people and always respect me in the
presence of others. She should be ready to face anything that comes our way
whether good or bad." For ladies who do not know how to cook, Okesina will not
consider.
Hear him: "She must be a good cook and let me know whenever she is offended so
there won’t be quarrels."
Having been married for years, Mr. Femi Dada is of the opinion that men prefer
women that will care for them anytime. Apart from being caring, Dada wants his
woman to “be God fearing, decent and neat. She should always take care of her
environment.”
According to Dada, men are faced with challenges at work and then come home
feeling bothered wanting to share with their spouse.
He urged a woman that has a listening ear to listen to whatever bothers her
husband so he can be relieved, “A woman that will take me for who I am and
accommodate my shortcomings is what I need. An unselfish woman that values
children and one that will care for my extended family. Not just someone that will
say ‘I and my husband alone,” he added.Not ruling out the spiritual aspect to
relationships, Dada advises husbands and wives to have the love and fear for
God.
Like Dada, Mr. Henry Mgbeme wants a woman that is caring and supportive. A
woman who will not depend on him for everything she needs nor engage in
worldly activities.
For Mgbeme, he wants a modest woman. “I prefer her simple and modest – I
would not like my woman to use jewellery.” Going the African tradition, Mr. Atumeyi
Uwanni, a married man for years, prefer a woman well nurtured in her traditions
and must not be canal. This he says is a typical African woman.
Speaking further, Uwanni said “A man can be flirt, known to the woman but she
can absorb and manage. But no man can manage the flirt character of a woman.
Also, Uwanni, frowns at women with low hygiene manners. He advised that such a
woman should strive to imbibe healthy lifestyle. Uwanni was also of the view that,
“A woman should be good in all ramifications.”
For those women who do not exhibit good character, he advised that such a
woman should read the last chapter of the Book of Proverbs as a guideline to
managing her home.
To him, "Marriage is friendship. Friendship is companionship. Companionship is
what a man looks out for in a woman. If there is no relationship, there is no
fellowship. The relationship between spouses metamorphoses into fellowship.”
For nagging and callous women, Uwanni says such persons are not welcome by
men. Such women, he says will not welcome a man’s ‘people’ and friends into his
house. Uwanni therefore proposes for love in a relationship. This he says covers a
multitude of sin. Love, he pointed out, should not be only in bed but also outside
bed.
On his part, Henry Ose wants a sincere woman that he can trust anywhere,
anytime and any day.
He said “Women can fool men to the brim if they want to. A girl giving her body
doesn’t guarantee her love for you. She might as well be fooling you. I don’t want
a woman that will still have feelings for her ex-lover because she would never want
to let him go,” Ose added.
Reeling what he wants in a woman, Lanre Bello said that he wants one from a
good background, Christian with a good behavior that can accommodate his
friends and people.
Bello did not also fail to mention that his ideal woman “must be a good cook and
be very good in bed. For, if she is an amateur, then it’s going to be hell for the
man.”
Dami Israel Ojo wants a woman of good character. To him: “It is not all about the
beauty or make-up. The good character is the beauty of a woman and this is what
will stand the test of time when the beauty would have gone. This is what builds
up a good family.”
Ojo also craves for a woman that is very understanding, “I want a woman with
understanding. She should understand my type of person, for I am a very stubborn
and aggressive type.”
