For many women, searching for the ideal spouse is a lesson in patience – and stress. However, while no partner is perfect, there are plenty of traits that women look for in their future mates.
Both partners must never rest on their laurels and become complacent – being active in the relationship is paramount. “I find it incredibly attractive when someone steps up to actively participate in the relationship,” says one woman.
If your future partner is focused on something other than the well, future, what’s the point of being with them? Finding somebody who sets goals – and hopefully meets those goals – is a crucial trait most women look for in prospective partners.
Finding a person who is always thinking of how to brighten up your day is something that’s consistently on the minds of many women. “I’d been dating my now-husband for only about a month when a bark box delivery started showing up at my house for my dog,” says a happily-married woman.
Nobody wants to be with a loud, arrogant, and selfish person. Having quiet confidence is a good indicator of emotional maturity. It goes a long way toward making your partner more confident in the relationship and where it’s headed.
Just a heads up, gentlemen: women appreciate it when you pitch in around the house! “I (a woman) am a bit retentive and like to keep my home cleaned as much as I can,” one person admits.
As I wrote earlier, nobody is perfect. However, this shouldn’t stop any partner from chasing that dream of perfection in relationships. On the contrary, a constant willingness to improve sends a positive signal to your partner that will be appreciated – and reciprocated.
