Her Expectations In A Love Relationship – What She Is Looking For In Dating You.

Different women have different subjective expectations in a relationship. But some expectations are cross-cutting to all women, regardless of their subjective expectations, and that is what we cover in this section. Here are 5 rudimentary expectations of women in all love relationships.

Your unconditional acceptance of who she is.

In the same way you would not want your girlfriend trying to mold or make you into someone else, she also has the same expectation. She doesn’t want you trying to transform her into a vixen if she’s not cut out to be one. If you don’t like her as she is then you shouldn’t date her in the first place (and this also goes for women).

Your unwavering love, loyalty, and support.

She wants you to love her unreservedly and completely. The best gift you can give your girlfriend is your wholehearted love. If you’re in it, be in it all the way.

She also wants your loyalty and support in everything that she does and the things that matter to her the most, even if you don’t agree with all of it. And loyalty and support, not just in words, but in your action(s) too.

Integrity and honesty from you.

Integrity and honesty are also very vital in any relationship. She doesn’t want you lying to her face or cheating on her. If you’re with her, then she expects that you are with her alone, and not her and a string of other women. And if there is anything that goes wrong, she would want your complete honesty.

Your honest but loving opinions on things that matter to her.

It may seem like women can’t handle their boyfriend’s opinions, but this is not completely true. The reason why it may appear that way is because of the way it is delivered. If what is meant to be constructive criticism is not delivered constructively, then it won’t be taken very well. She values your honest opinion, but she wants you to deliver it constructively and lovingly. And you can start by praising her positives first and then suggesting ways you think it could be even more awesome.

A value-add to her life and overall well-being.

Finally, every woman wants to know that you are a positive influence in her life and bringing some valuable contribution to it. This does not always have to be in material possessions at all. Things like being a good sounding board when she needs to bounce off ideas, giving sound advice if and when it is needed, being reliable and dependable whenever she needs it. These little things are what make all the difference to her.

Her Worst and Deepest Fears In A Love Relationship – What She Is Most Afraid Of In Dating You.

And if you think you’re the only one with fears in your relationship with your girlfriend, think again. Women have these 7 worst fears in their relationships:

That You Don’t Love Her As Much As She Loves You.

This is one big fear that women have. They are afraid that you may not be as much in love with them as they are with you. So, affirm this regularly. Tell her how much you love her and how much she means to you.

That She’ll Lose You To Someone Else.

This is another fear she has. If you’re afraid you’ll lose her to someone else, she’s even more afraid of that fact than you, especially when every woman on this planet is beautiful. She’s always wondering if you will leave her for another woman equally as awesome and beautiful as she is.

This is why most women go to extremes of fighting other women over their men or even sending warning messages to other women. And this is not at all to justify such actions but to show you that most women take this fear to the extreme and you should therefore be aware of it. Affirming your devotedness to her will go a long way in providing the needed reassurance.

That You’ll Lose Interest In Her.

With so many beautiful women in the world and more being born every day, most women have this fear that you may wake up one day and decide that you are fed up with them and that you want someone else. And this is why part of what she wants to hear from you is that you still find her enchanting and captivating.

That You Don’t Find Her Attractive Anymore.

Women are always particular about their appearance and how appealing, alluring, and attractive their boyfriend finds them. And they also worry that with so many other attractive and beautiful women surrounding you, you may start to find someone else more attractive. Affirming how hot and ravishing you find her will always be loved.

That You May Find Her Boring And Not Smart.

Women know how men love smart and exciting women and sometimes they fear that you may not find them as smart and exciting as you want. Affirm how smart you find her.

That You Will Break Her Heart.

Infidelity is the worst thing every woman fears in a relationship, and for some, it has a more devastating health effect. This is why honesty and faithfulness are top priorities for women in any relationship, and when a guy cheats that will almost always be the end of that relationship. You must always assure your girlfriend that you are faithful to her and will not break her heart.

That Your Family May Not Like Her.

Your girlfriend will want to be accepted by your family because she knows how important they are to you. And it scares her stiff that they may not accept her, especially your mum. And the reason why this scares and terrifies her is because she knows that you also value your mum’s opinions, and if your mum has a negative opinion of her, it could color your opinion of her. While this may not always be the case, it is always good to affirm to your girlfriend that your family will love her.

And if after she sees the family it turns out to be otherwise, it is important to make it clear through your words and action that until your family comes around, you still love her very much and nothing changes.

Finally, before saying any of these words, be sure that you sincerely mean it. Women are emotional beings by nature and attach a lot of importance to the words a lover tells them. If you don’t mean any of this and say it, you will only bring her hurt and pain when she comes to realize that you were not being honest with her and did not mean any of it. You will enter the registry of dudes she labels as “jerks”. Don’t be that guy!

1. “I love you”.

This is a cliche word that is the lifeline of every relationship. If you’re in love with her, tell her every day, every minute. No one in love ever gets tired of saying these words especially when they mean it, because that is how they feel.

And if you don’t love her, then stop wasting her time and let her be with someone else who will love her.

Aww, so adorable. We would not even be surprised if she kisses you after you say this to her to explain exactly why it is she chose you over all others.

9. “I don’t want a life without you in it”.

This one can be a little tricky though because it may come off as though you are trying to propose to her, so it’s probably best to reserve this one for deeper commitments like a proposal.

How cute. She would love knowing that she brings brightness and value to your life, and this tells her that.

11. “Your smile makes me forget any troubles I may have”.

Another beautiful affirmation that she means a lot to you.

This tells her that you have no intention of losing her or losing interest in her.

17. “I love that your beautiful face is the first thing I have to wake up to every morning” (or “this morning” if you don’t live together).

Another heart-warming affirmation of dependability and reliability.

24. “I want to be the only shoulder you ever have to lean on.”

25. “Me without you is like air without oxygen.”

Air without oxygen in it is impossible because oxygen is a key component of air. What you tell her with these sweet words is that there is no chance of you two being apart.

26. “You’re one of the smartest women I know.”

You affirm her brilliance when you tell her this. This is a good way to build your girlfriend’s confidence in herself even when she is naturally a confident person. Even confident people want the occasional confidence boosters.

27. “Babe, I may not agree with you on this but I know enough about you to know that you’ve thought this through before deciding on it, so you have my support and whatever help you need with it, I am here for you.”

This is another one of the best things you can tell your girlfriend. She wants to know that she has and can count on your support at all times, even if you may not always agree with it.
