2. She never makes the first move. This issue has been debated to death, and there is no true consensus. But Daily says that she strongly believes women should never, ever pursue a man. Instead, she suggests waiting for the man to initiate and plan dates. Her reasoning: If the woman is always the one calling, she will never know if he is really interested in her or if it's just convenient for him. She may find herself questioning the relationship every step of the way. Men simply aren't programmed to think like that and therefore are better suited to the chase, Daily says.
3. She is sexy without being trampy. This means something different at the beginning of the relationship
4. She waits to have sex. Yes, the sexual revolution arrived long ago and few people expect a "pure white bride" nowadays. But sex is still a pretty big step for couples. Daily says that many women don't even realize just how much sex changes the dynamics of a relationship. When women have sex, they release a hormone called oxytoci
5. Show she cares.
Daily has one friend who noticed that her traveling salesman boyfriend never had time to get his shirts washed, so he would just go out and buy new ones. Her friend started to drop off his laundry at the dry cleaners once a week. Daily herself cooks for her husband. "It's as if he doesn't even know where the kitchen is," she says. "But that's not to say that he starves when I'm out of town." No, you do not have to turn into June Cleaver. The bottom line is that you should want to do the little things that let him know you care and you are paying attention to his individual needs. And he should do the same for you. Daily boasts that her man scrapes the ice off her windshield on cold winter mornings!
6. She should be her boyfriend's best wingman
7. She never turns on the pressure.
This one is important. Men have a distinct aversion to any sort of
pressure, says Daily. Therefore, women should avoid calling and/or
emailing him many times during the day or dropping hints about the
future. In fact, keep the dreaded M-word (marriage) out of your vocabulary all together. "Men don't want to constantly take the pulse of a relationship
8. She does not take any crap -- from anyone. A good woman never accepts bad behavior.
Guys respect women with whom they can't get away with anything. If he
knows there's a penalty -- like getting thrown to the curb -- for a
serious violation like cheating, he'll respect you more, and he will be
far less likely to do it. You should also never even bother to date
married men, those who already have girlfriends or anyone who verbally
or physically threatens or abuses you. Period.
9. A good woman always chooses a good man.
That means that you should look for someone who is honest and
dependable. He has to treat you right. If he says he is going to be
somewhere, he is there. Chivalry is not dead, by the way. " Good manners
are a deeper window into what kind of man he truly is," Daily says. You
should also have compatible views on money (which is the number one
thing couples fight about). Even though they say opposites attract,
savers should think twice before shacking up with wild spenders.
10. She knows that love is the biggest part of the mating equation.
Just how does a good woman know that she has found that crazy-for-you,
toe-curling relationship? Daily says that some women have an "a-ha"
moment, while love simply sneaks up on the rest. "I believe the feeling
includes a unique sense of comfort and acceptance and the feeling that
someone else's happiness is as important to you as your own," Daily
says. "A certain amount of toe curling is key as well."
