With Valentine’s Day looming, men get so confused about what to get women—and God forbid if they should show up empty-handed. This holiday can be a little overrated by putting pressure on a man and where the relationship stands at the time, especially if it’s new. He would be in the dog house for sure if he showed up without any treats or some mushy card. Actually, what matter most to women are the little things men can do everyday that don’t cost a thing. Every guy should read this!

This Is What Women Really Want:

  • Listen: Yes it’s that simple. Just a head nod to show that you are acknowledging the conversation will do if you are not sure what to say. Listen up guys, it really goes a long way.
  • Quality Time: You need some bonding time with your mate; it creates more intimacy.
  • Admiration: Who doesn’t love to be loved? Tell her what you admire about her daily, not just on special occasions.
  • Forget about mind reading: Ask her what she wants — and we’re not talking about material things here.
  • Touch: A gentle massage and a passionate kiss can reignite some sparks to your relationship. Of course, if it’s in an unexpected place it’s even more exciting!
  • Foreplay: Caveman relations aren’t exactly what women crave. Slow down guys. Tease and please; it’s not all about you.
  • Surprise: Blindfold her and take her somewhere even if it’s only to bed. There is a lot of excitement from unexpected pleasure and not knowing what is coming next.
  • Love notes: Yes, good old-fashioned handwritten notes are still heart-warming to the soul. A sticky note placed somewhere unexpected is also a nice way to make a girl’s day.

These tips take little to no effort but will indeed make any woman happy! Happy Valentine’s Day!
