That's a good question and I expect we all have our own views but the things that drew me to my current partner were his sense of humour, he's very affectionate, he makes me laugh, he doesn't always agree with me and will tell me when I'm being a pain in the rear! I can talk to him - we're able to have conversations about our own things that maybe the other isn't so interested in. He's human - he doesn't always get it right but it's kind of good as there's humility in him. We share a lot of laughs together too.

For me: The first thing I look at when meeting a man for the first time is his physical looks (I know it sounds shallow, but I have to be attracted to a person). This is not set in stone...sometimes after getting to know someone his personality can make them more or less attractive.
I look for a guy who has his priorities in order...maybe he doesn't have a great job, but he's motivated to get somewhere in his life.
He must be at least as intelligent as I am...I don't care if he has the looks of Brad Pitt.
He doesn't have to be a comedian, but it's nice when he can make me laugh.
Someone who believes in equality...i.e. if I cook - he does the dishes and vice versa.
Intimate relationships can improve if not great, but I need to feel that he wants me more than anything, almost like he can barely control himself.
Most of all I look for a man that will listen to me, talk to me, and trust me (and of course won't cheat on me)!

Funny and able to laugh at themselves...nothing worse than someone who takes themselves to seriously...however no one likes a clown either, keep it in the middle.
I'm not saying he has to be rich but it would be nice if they earned enough money to take you to nice places...i'm sick of earning more than the men i meet. It's kind of embarrassing since i like to be looked after.
don't always take the side of your best mate over your girlfriend...trust me you don't want to be stuck with him all your life and no girly!
DON'T CHEAT...simple. If you really really want to cheat then it means you are in the wrong relationship and end it! I've fancied other guys while in a relationship but i always end the current one before i do anything.
Don't be so hard on her if she texts alot...we are women it is natural it doesn't mean she is obsessed with you (well most of the time anyway)
Say nice things, tell her she looks beautiful every now and then not just "Aw your t!ts look hot in that top"
Number one secret to a happy relationship....Always listen.

I believe and have learned that women look for honesty, trust, open healthy communication, security in the guy that is stedfast in employment, knows who he is, good character.
The Bible speaks of what love is and is not:
Love suffers long and is kind; love does not envy; love does not parade itself, is not puffed up; does not behave rudely, does not seek its own, is not provoked thinks no evil; Does not rejoice in iniquity, but rejoices in the truth; Bears all things, believes all things, hopes all things, endures all things.
Love never fails....And now abide faith, hope, love, these three; but the greatest of these is love.

Most people (men and women) have no idea what they're looking for in an ideal partner (at least, no REALISTIC idea, if you look at the lists here) - it's therefore not surprising that relationships don't last.

That initial attraction, a nice sense of style, a good standard of personal hygiene, someone who has things is common with me, is intelligent, honest, loyal, affectionate, has a good sense of humour, someone who is willing to try new things, and isn't afraid to make a fool out of himself, someone who is willing to show their true feelings, who has his own opinions and thoughts, and doesn't just agree with me for the sake of it.
And lucky for me, my man has all these qualities, and a few more I dare not reveal!

For me, its substance, ability to be natural and funny and not at all ignorant. Ooh and wears a great fragrance! Blokes hunting in packs are plain intimidating and there is no chance a woman would contemplate trying her luck with you if this is how you go about.

you know what you will get a thousand different responses because we are from different backgrounds, different women brought up by different mothers, different cultures, so u know what i will tell you this one thing. concentrate on being a wonderful guy, a good person , love from your heart, be passionate about what you do with your life and be happy with who you are, accept yourself and keep the woman you will go out with love and respect she will cherish you for the rest of your life.
take care.
