Honesty
Real men respect an honest woman. In fact, they yearn for one. A woman that possesses the ability to be open and honest about what she wants is one that can clearly articulate how she does and doesn’t feel. There’s nothing like it. In a world full of surface interaction your candidness can be refreshing for him.
Empathy
There are a lot of cases where he doesn’t necessarily want to be “right.” He simply wants to be understood. He will never be able to understand in totality what it’s like to be a woman in this world just as you will never be able to fathom what it takes for him to be a man. That’s perfectly fine. However, if you can find it within you to be aware enough to recognize he has a different perspective and to try to see life from his view, he will be forever grateful. This will only prompt him to do the same for you.
Acceptance
One of the worse things you can do is judge a man, especially when it comes to his past life before you. He isn’t asking for forgiveness; he’s merely seeking your acceptance. If he can become comfortable in divulging who he’s been then you’ll never have to guess who he is.
Trustworthy
If he has proven himself to be trustworthy then trust him. He needs to know that you believe in his character. It strengthens him. He isn’t asking you to love blindly but just not be consumed with hypotheticals.
Goal Driven
Every secure goal-driven man is looking for the same in a woman. To know that you have plans outside of him is a true turn on. This actually helps to keep him in check and lets him know there are things in your life that are bigger than him.
