5 Things Every Man Loves To Hear

Here are 5 Important Things Every Man Wants to Hear

1. “I love you!”

Even the toughest man will melt a bit when his partner professes their love for him. We love hearing that you love us. Also, we like hugs, kisses and cuddling too.

2. “I appreciate what you do.”

Men need to feel like we are good providers for the people we love. If we believe anything less, we don’t perceive ourselves as the man we should be. As such, when we’re told that you’re thankful for our hard work, effort, and for providing, it means a tremendous deal to us.

3. “You’re the best (dad/husband/boyfriend/etc.)!”

As a man fortunate enough to have a woman who frequently verbalizes her fondness, this writer can attest to this statement’s power. It’s less of an ego-boost as it is a verbalization of respect. It’s a testament to both our efforts and our priorities – which are the woman and her well-being.

4. “I appreciate you as a man!”

As stated, men need to feel like men. For this writer, this need has nothing to do with bravado. It has everything to do with knowing that our partner appreciates something about our character (honesty, integrity, selflessness, etc.) or something else.

5. “I respect you!”

As men age, we have less of a need to be recognized for selfish reasons (or we should!) This feeling is replaced by the need to feel respected out of love. We love feeling admired and respected from the people who love and care about us!
