Hey, guys, let’s have an honest chat.
We want you to get real with us and tell us what you wish the ladies in your life did more often.
And, just to be clear, we’re not talking about anything related to s*x. We want to hear about the other stuff in life that makes you feel all warm and fuzzy inside.
I think this will be a very informative exercise, don’t you?
Let’s see what guys had to say on AskReddit.
1. Genuine.
“My (now) girlfriend, who was traveling with me once in a metro, on the way to a festival I was playing at, fixed my shirt collar while we were standing in the centre of the compartment.
The pride, and the look on my face when she did that. It just felt so genuine, that someone cares how I look.
Someone cares if my shirt collar is folded over itself wrong. I think that was one of the moments that I fell for her.”
2. We love it.
“Play with my hair.
Had a girl tell me (this was high school, sophomore year) that “your hair is so soft”. I have super curly, thick hair (sorry bald guys- if it’s any consolation, I can’t grow a beard) and she told me she was going to play with it.
She did for all period, around 50 minutes. Best 50 minutes of my life.”
3. Take me away.
“I’m a married man now, but I always liked it when a woman I was dating would take me by the hand or wrist and lead me somewhere.”
4. More physical, please.
“Hmmm if I had to pick one thing I’d probably say be more physical with me especially in a relationship.
Everything doesn’t have to be s*xual but we sit down together, grab my hand. If we are watching a movie and you don’t want to snuggle, put your leg on me.
Random kisses on the cheek from time to time, hugs from behind are actually nice.”
5. I’m over here.
“Pay more attention to me when we are with her friends.
Of course I don’t want 100% of the attention, but sometimes I feel bad because seems that she just forgets about me when surrounded by friends.”
6. A great date.
“I got invited to a date where the girl took the lead, bought the beer, planned the route to show me a romantic spot and carried the conversation mostly.
Everything seemed to be a spontaneous decision but I could tell she planned it beforehand.
Was one of the best and most relaxing dates I’ve ever had.”
7. Like a dog.
“Scratch my back, play with my hair, give me compliments….
Basically treat us like dogs.”
8. Let me know.
“Show their interest. I’m dense as hell.
A smile and a wave is you being friendly. A hug is friendly. If you’re actually interested in me, tell me.
Otherwise I’ll never know, and with me, that just means you’re friendly and I don’t have a shot.”
9. Invested.
“I’m not sure why but when girls use my first name when talking to me it makes me feel like they are invested in the conversation.”
10. Check in.
“Text me every now and then just to see how I’m doing.
11. Go ahead and open up.
“Allow me to open up about my emotions without thinking I am weak because of it.”
12. Hugs.
“Honestly, just a hug.
I grew up with very physical female friends. Hello = hug. Goodbye = hug. You’re funny = hug.
Around middle school, that started to change because if you hugged someone it meant you were dating (yes, I know that’s stupid).
Now, the most physical contact I get with anyone other than my SO is a fist bump.
Hell, not even that since Covid.”
13. Warm and fuzzy.
“I dated a girl who would wrap her arms around me and kiss my cheek multiple times.
Even though we broke up, it still makes me smile when I think about it”
Okay, guys, we want to hear from more of you!
In the comments, tell us what you wish ladies did more often.
Please and thank you!
