What Women Want.

"Open me up and you will see,

I'm a gallery of broken hearts,

I'm beyond repair, let me be,

Just give me back my broken parts."

A song by Ingrid Michaelson, Be OK.

And this is something i came across on Yahoo! the other day. The article is about "9 Simple Things Women Want". After reading it, i guess most of it is true la. See its not that hard to make us happy actually :) We just want to see you at least make the effort to please us. We just want to feel that you care, that there's no other girl you'd rather be with. Like what Bryan Adams sang in his song, "have you ever really loved a woman"..

"When you love a women, tell her that she's really wanted,

When you love a women, tell her that she's the one,

She needs somebody, to tell here that it's gonna last forever..."

So the nine things stated in the article are :-

1. RESPECT - Show us through your actions that you respect our opinions, careers, interests, etc. When making decisions in your life, count us in, ask us what we think. Don't leave us out.

2. ROMANCE - Be spontaneous. It doesn't matter what you do, what matters is that you actually thought about doing it on your own. Example that the article gave is bring home flowers for no reason:)

3. TIME - Simply making the time to be with us and treating us like your top priority says "love" more than all the fancy gifts and lovely letters ever could. We know you're busy (we are too), but take a few minutes off work just to call up and say hi, could just make our day :) It makes a whole lot of difference you know when we know you're calling us when you're in the middle of something/busy and when we know you're calling us because you have nothing else to do and you're bored.

4. DINNER - something homemade, like cookiesss yummyyy (okei fine something simple like sandwich oso can), melt our hearts instantly.

5. COMMUNICATION - The article said, "We know you love us, but it's nice to hear you say it. We can also be insecure, so let us know when you think we're hot. Tell us you love the lasagna we made. Notice that we cleaned the bathtub. Just let us know that you see the effort we put in, and you're grateful." I think what it means is that show us that you appreciate the things that we do.

6. CONSISTENCY - I think what it means is that be consistent in your effort to show your love kut. Don't la just do it once, then dah, jadi blur ayam balik lepas tu:-"

7. ENGAGEMENT - Listen when we talk to you. You don't have to like everything we like, but showing interest in our passions, be it career-related, a sport or a hobby, goes a long wayyy.

8. CHALLENGE - The article said "The good kind of challenge, the kind that surprises and motivates us to do, be or achieve what we desire.":)

9. HUMOR and HUMILITY - meaning, relax, sit back and enjoy our company. crack jokes, just be yourself

tak la susah sangat pun, kan? ;)
