It’s tempting to assume that single women are insane, and that there is no point trying to figure out what they want. If you’re after a relationship though, that might not be a fruitful strategy! Here’s what single women really want… and some clues for making sure you’re the one to give it to them.

Single women want… to be listened to

It’s the holy grail of conversation. Sounds like a basic skill, but few people actually deliver. Forget about putting your two bobs worth in for a bit, and listen to the single women express themselves.

Single women want… to feel comfortable

Make it a point not to comment negatively, and not even to make too much positive fuss over a single woman’s looks. Remind her that what is important is how she feels and treats you.

Single women want… confidence with flexibility

Women like to see men that are comfortable with themselves, but that aren’t so self-assured they’re blinded to other people’s feelings and the possibility of other opinions being correct. It’s a fine balance!

Single women want… healthy guys

It doesn’t really matter if you can bench 150 or 350 – but if you’re healthy, you’ll get a lot more attention from single women!

Single women want… to be cared for

Pay attention to what she might want or need – another drink, some fresh air, a seat, to change the channel on TV… and you’ll have a dedicated fan for life. It’s a good life philosophy in general, as well.
