What Women Want Most In a Man
It's not good looks. It's not money. It's not a
charming personality. It's
not a powerful career. What women want most in a
man is fidelity.
Fully 54 percent of women responding to a Leger
Marketing-Canadian Press
poll cited "a faithful partner" when asked what
they thought was most
important when choosing a mate, reports the
Canadian Press. Men also cited
fidelity as an important attribute, but not
surprisingly they also highly
valued physical attraction and being good in bed.
Here are the results of the Leger
Marketing-Canadian Press survey of 1,052
adults that was conducted in January.
Participants were asked to choose the
three attributes they most valued in a potential
mate, so the numbers add
up to more than 100 percent.
What women want most in a man:
Faithful partner: 54 percent
Respect the other person's independence: 40
percent
Ability to listen: 35 percent
Physical attraction: 13 percent
Being good in bed: 6 percent
What men want most in a woman:
Faithful partner: 47 percent
Respect the other person's independence: 36
percent
Intelligence: 35 percent
Physical attraction: 26 percent
Being good in bed: 13 percent
The best place to meet that special someone:
Introduced by friends: 40 percent
Chance or luck: 17 percent
Introduced by family: 11 percent
Sports or social clubs: 7 percent
Work: 3 percent
Bars: 2 percent
Internet: 1 percent
Newspaper classifieds: 1 percent
Here's something that should gladden every heart:
Fully 90 percent of those
polled believe it is possible to be happy with
the same person for a lifetime.

JB, you've lost me there. Why isn't it true? How isn't it true?
What surprises me is:

i also think that fidelity is the number one quality i look for in a partner. It is so important, especially in this day and age, where everywhere you turn, someone is cheating on their spouse or partner. I dont understand how people start a relationship out of infidelity. How could a woman/man be involved with someone who is in a relationship, then themselves, get involved with that person when they end their prior relationship??...i see that happening so often in recent times. If someone cheats on their partner with you...what makes you think they wont do the same thing to you??
Cookie... yep, you are one smart Trini woman, too bad the others do not wise up to that, but you know, the big thing here is this --> Self-Esteem. When you don't think much of yourself and of your worth you tend to accept anything because you doubt that you can do much better. It is amazing how many people think like that.
yes i think thats the major reason why many people stay together. Even without infidelity...in a situation where one party is being treated badly... the one being mistreated holds on because he/she is of the belief that they cant find someone else to treat them better. Furthermore, many people believe that they wont find anyone who would love them, or that they can love
...its a sad reality that many people cannot take control of their lives through physical and emotional independence. As babies we are dependent on our parents for survival...then in adulthood, we become dependent on other human beings on an emotional level...human nature can be so complicated
Cookie, you're definetly not the typical Trini and I'm glad . What women and men really want varies depending on the country and circumnstances....definetly in Trinidad, I could perfectly imagine the responses of the men *rolling eyes* just by having to go and work every day and see the way they look at you.
