A wife needs to be able to cook, clean, and nurture your children. She must be a lover and a helpmate. A girlfriend, just needs to want to have sex with you/

Loyalties are must for both cases.
For wife, looks is not the concern, it is the personalities and character. Be able to get along with family and friends. supportive, caring and understanding.
For girlfriend, the spec is very relex since it may not last anyway.
The differences are due to wife for the long haul ( life-long ) partner.
Girlfriend can be a transitional companion.

When some guys are ready to settle down they tend to look for personality and "the mother" instinct that a female possess. Then theres the other guys that are looking for a girlfriend and look go for the looks and the body figure, and the only thing they want is the freedom from marriage to were as others want the companionship of a loving wife.

In a wife you must find someone you can talk to + like and love enough to spend the rest of your days with. LOYALTY would be a very big one for me.

This is a trick question! The only men that want a wife can't get a girlfriend. Any man that can get a girlfriend wouldn't want a wife.

I hope you don't mind, I'm answering on behalf of my husband, based on what he told me about 3 days ago...
For him, in order to marry, it was important that his would-be wife is educated (so that even if she decides to stay at home with the kids, she is able to work should anything happen to him, so she wont have to rely on someone else to take care of her and the kids), church-going (so that he knows his kids are in good hands!), and flexible (I don't mean physically!). He said flexible because when you're dating, you can just dump someone if things come up. If you're married, you never know when you have to move for your job, or stay home to raise a special-needs child, or change your own career to meet the needs of your family. Hope that helps!

I am a kind and caring man, and I would look for a woman who wants a real man to be a leader in the home, not a feminist who is looking for an "equal" relationship, like "two kings in Rome."
Unfortunately, there will be very few people today understand this.

For me they are going to be virtually the same. First, she has to be fully committed to her love and service to Christ. If this is not the primary motivation of her life, then I would wait for any marriage proposal. As Christian believers, we are all in the process of sanctification as the Lord works in our lives.... being fully committed to the process is what is important. Other necessary or desirable qualities include purity before marriage, fidelity after, honesty, loyalty, communicative, willingness to forgive, kind, gentle, respectful of me, willingness to share in my interests (as I would for her), does not try to manipulate or control, and simply enjoys spending time together talking, watching t.v., playing games, working out, taking walks, or sharing new experiences.
Desirable, but not essential qualities would be a person who loves being with me, but does not "have" to be with me in order to be happy; someone who is fairly low maintenance, not overly materialistic, committed to fitness, committed to learning, willing to take some risks, and someone who manages finances responsibly (who is not buried in debt). I also like phone calls for no particular reason... just to say "hi", or "I love you", or just to say I was thinking about you and wanted to know how you were doing.

Well, the thing that boils down to is that if you can live with your girlfriend's flaws and habits, then eventually she'll become your wife. If not, she won't be your wife because you will have kicked her to the curb!

All I want is my wife to be herself. In a relationship, independence is important.
