5 Top Traits Men Seek In A Long Term Relationship--A.K.A.--Looks Ain't Everything!
It goes here without saying that a moderate level of intelligence or intellect has already been covered. When a man finds himself alone in this world I hope, personally, that he has learned to develop a relationship with, or, understanding of God. That this omniscience and omnipotent energy surrounds all that he is composed. However, this is not that type of broadcast fortunately, or, rather unfortunately depending on who is reading this.
This message involves the situational seeking out of a lasting partnership with another individual throughout their lifetime. And whether man, or woman, regardless—these types of characteristics and personality traits stand out as tried and true so there is a higher likelihood that these traits are relatively understood flat-out. Even still I enjoy offering an interpretation of my own sensibilities relating to these qualities, so please bare in mind, these are opinions that will be stacked on top of truths. You will see what I mean. Read on and discover our list:
Trust—This is a developed and deeper-level type of experience to enjoy. When it can be understood by both parties in a relationship have this shared level of interest with one another’s complex web of scattered desires? An almost mystical level of truth is formed that nothing can interfere with. Trusting your partner in a relationship takes away a majority of the mental stress in certain individual’s lives. Me? For instance. I am a straight male creative type. I get really anxious around people for whatever psychological reason, maybe because I am not comfortable in general? Maybe my judgmental, holier-than-now beacon is scattering and I am unable to decipher whether or not I will stay longer..a multitude of reasons and rationale’s. Generally, this is why I travel alone. But when I bring a female along with me? It is either because I am testing their level of interest in me, or? It’s because I already trust in whatever decision they will make for themselves. I sort of gloss-over and put it into the hands of my higher power.
Loyalty—Loyalty and trust are very similar, however, I think types of situations arise when a person trusts another person so much so as to allow them so become a mercenary and infiltrate the walls of the opposition. I have never done this myself, but then again, I do read too many stories on the evolution of war tactics. How to conquer and overcome? The best, and most common way? Divide. Divide and conquer. Wasn’t that Lao Tsu, who shared that tidbit? You see, from my perspective, trust and loyalty are both weapons of both the mind and the heart. I know whenever I am with her who she is coming home to. Maybe not with, but home “tp/”
Devotion—This feels good. This one feels really good. To know that no matter what has happened to my physical appearance, that she can look past that and still be affectionate towards me. Devotion is somewhat tied to loyalty, but let’s not. Let’s describe it rather as that feeling a man gets when his lost dog is found and rushes after him at first sight of each other. There’s an excitement level—an unquestioning thrill. There is a fascination and continued wonder of who one another is and whatever is being created—it is understood as a secondary measure. That what truly matters is that level of interest and attention for one another.
Independence—Like it or not, a man is going to want his space at a certain time. To find himself. To build and perform, or, to go after whatever he is seeking. He will need his space and likewise? He will need a level of support from his significant other that allows for that. Our lives and our society in American culture, is built to rush people into a somewhat programmed and repetitive cycle. The reality is that most men find themselves feeling conflicted with their own sense of understanding of themselves, let alone the direction they are heading. Pressures and programming make it challenging to ever notice this at first glance, and it is usually later on in life when a man will feel settled and thoroughly situated enough to take on another journey: one which ideally involves no pressure. HINT: THIS IS WHERE YOU COME IN! You got the trust? The loyalty? The Devotion? But now all of a sudden he wants to take off all willy-nilly like, off-grid, or, out of the scope of his ordinary/usual behavior? Well? Chances are, he is waking up to the realization that there is no going back in life—that he can’t undo what he’s already done. And now he wants to explore himself and get to know who he is—without you. So, please? Please become independent in this situation. This is how a relationship with a man will work: where he knows that not matter what comes his way, or whatever interferes with his dragon-ship and compels him to go off, that you’ve got everything you will ever want or need. Everything is taken care of and you can do it on your own. Independence means interdependence in his mind. Of course he still loves you and desires you and wants to see all your happiness and joyful moments, but now’s the time to investigate and take a moment for himself. This is more than bowling night with his buddies. This is bigger than building a new garage. This is self-discovery. He needs you to be comfortable with being and growing tall by yourself.
Lastly, a man is going to want an integrity-driven individual. This is a person who does what they say they will do. Is where they say they are. And all within a reasonable amount of time. Picture this! If you were that incredible, illustrious, magnet of perfection that exists within you somewhere on some dimensional plane, most certainly the evolvement of that entity will be not only a greater level of awareness, but of integrity. Men enjoy predictability maybe not so much as reliability. And being reliable is all about being an integrity-driven person.
Well? You learn something? Have fun? Decided upon anything? There’s a relative shortness of this passage as I am growing weary into the idea that our society doesn’t read as much anymore. That is meant to be a recurring thought and not a suggestion. OF COURSE YOU LIKE TO READ!
