Lance asked me to contribute my thoughts to his topic about how to make yourself more attractive to the opposite sex, because he was inspired by my post, here. Lance is a pretty funny guy, and his website is pretty entertaining, and I had trouble resisting his charm.
So here is a lighthearted post about three things I think young women want from men; or maybe these are just things I want 
. Please feel free to add your own thoughts about this topic in the comments section; and at the bottom of the post you can read some of the other participants’ posts, which I’m sure will be more racy than mine!
**************************
A man who makes her feel special. Buy me flowers and I’ll ask for a vase. Buy me chocolates and I’ll gain two pounds. But write me a letter telling me how you feel about me? I would probably frame it. Making a woman feel special takes effort, but it goes much further than a corny, meaningless, hallmark-packaged “gesture” would.
A man who challenges her. Nice guys finish last, right? The truth is women are too independent for overly “nice guys” these days. I dated guys who treated me like a princess – very agreeable, always attentive. Then I met a guy who wasn’t afraid to tell me I was wrong and didn’t give me whatever I wanted - my husband. This isn’t to say be a jerk, but don’t fall over backwards either.
A man who knows how to “man up.” The term is confusing, because women still want guys who share their emotions and groom themselves properly. But women don’t think it’s manly to act overly macho anymore; they would prefer you have goals and learn responsibility. I could care less if you choose a career or a family to man up – the important thing is you actually choose to do so!
