What Men Want In A Relationship | Tenderness Without Strings Attached
The fear most men have of getting into a serious committed relationship is that they will have to work for every bit of tenderness they get. Men feel that women use their love and affection as sort of an incentivized gift. The women in a man’s life will often make him jump through hoops and go through several trials before she gives him the tenderness he needs.
I am not saying that women are never tender towards mean without having to make them jump through hoops. Women are indeed capable of giving men great tenderness, love and affection. What men do not want in a serious relationship though is to feel like they are being suffocated.

“There is a deep conflict at the heart of men’s relations with women,” says psychologist Roger Horrocks. “There is the wish to be intimate with a woman, to become one with her, and also the thread of being enveloped again.
No man in a serious relationship will ever speak the truth to his partner for fear of the consequences that might follow. But the truth is that many men feel that women put a lot of conditions on their love and attention. Many men were interviewed about this in several research studies, and these studies found that men wanted to be in a relationship where they would be understood and accepted for who they are.
The problem is that women do not seem to think this way when they get into serious committed relationships. In fact, women never want men to stay the way they were when they first got together. The funny thing is that women are usually attracted to a man by the very thing they will try to get you to change once they are with you.
If a man is unwilling to cooperate then the women will demonstrate her displeasure by becoming cold, having an attitude, and using sex as a weapon against him to get him to do what she wants.
So how do women show men they care without conditions?

Men want a woman who is going to listen and not display signs of disinterest. Men want their women to encourage them and more importantly they want to feel accepted about having their needs and their feelings.
Men want women who are able to love themselves first before getting into a relationship with them. Men looking to be in a serious relationship feel that only until this happens will women be able to give generously to the men in their lives without conditions and strings attached.
