 In the same way that men look for certain qualities in women, women deserve certain qualities in men. Some men are better lovers than others, so it may be challenging to identify the right man for yourself. However, some men may not have those sound qualities at first, but since good habits can be learned, the habits that make for a good lover can be developed over time. How do you identify your ideal man? When in the right man for yourself, as a woman, could be tough. Some scientists have spent years of their lives researching why we fall in love. As a result, they have identified certain behaviors you will notice in a man who will make a great lover. If you notice the falling qualities in your man, never let him go. 1. He's smart. No woman wants to date a fool. If he is intellectually stimulating, he will always make a wise decision and challenge you intellectually. Also, one study done in Hankins School of Economics in Finland suggests that the smarter the man, the less likely he is to be unfaithful. According to the research, more intelligent men are more likely to get married and stay married. 2. He makes you smile. He doesn't have to be Mr. Funny, but he always finds a way to make you smile. You could get really angry at him, but he always finds a way to win a smile from you. Say that he uses humor to avoid fixing issues between the two of you. No. He is smart enough always to confront issues when they happen, but he always finds a way to make you laugh about even the worst circumstances. He makes you see the best things in rough things and gives you reason to always smile. If he is like this, never let him go. To prove this, a study using Ravens' advanced progressive matrices has shown that men are more likely to have mating success if they have a good sense of humor. 3. He actively supports your career. If he can sacrifice his time, efforts and money to ensure you become your best. If he is always looking out to help you develop and maximize your potential. If he certainly encourages you to be your best and he is the first to take action to help you achieve that goal of being at your best. If he is constantly cheering you on during victories and encourages you during defeats, if he never looks down on you about what you can't do but constantly figures out your strength and helps you to maximize your strength, never let him go. To prove this, a study conducted at the Hunter College and Graduate Center at the City University of New York found that husbands were a deciding factor in two-thirds of women's decisions to quit their jobs, often because they thought it was their duty to bring up their children. 4. He makes an effort with your friends and family. A man who will make a good lover will love almost all the people you love, even if he doesn't. If the people are important and relevant to you and he is making genuine efforts to get close to them, never let him go. A recently conducted study revealed that young men were often satisfied more with their bromances than their romantic relationships with women in their lives. This may seem absurd. However, you should maintain a relationship with your friends. If a man not only wants you to keep your friends but also wants to be friends with your friends, never let him go. 5. He is emotionally intelligent. Not all men are emotionally intelligent. But if your man shows so much emotional intelligence, always inclined to think things true and never react in based on emotions, that's a good man. Some studies have revealed that women consider the perspectives and opinions of their partners more than men do. First, if you find a man that often considers your own opinion and views, keep him. 6. He respects your opinions and listens. Most women may crave love in a romantic relationship. However, respect is equally important. If he is a good lover, he respects you in every way. He respects your persons. He respects your values. He doesn't take your need for granted and he doesn't flaunt your flaws in your face or even publicly. He honors your emotional needs and respects your past. If he is a man who always thinks he is right, you should run while you still can. According to Dr. John Gautam, author of the Seven Principles of Making Marriage Work, if a man rejects his female partner's influence, it may be a sign that he has power issues. 7. He is willing to put the work in. If he is a good lover, he is constantly striving for you to be comfortable in the relationship. He may not be perfect, but he is willing to put the work in to make the relationship work and make you a better person. In putting the work in to make the relationship work, he is also working hard to gain and retain your trust. If it takes your trust in him to heart, keep him. A study carried out at the University of Texas revealed compatibility wasn't really the bedrock of successful relationships. Rather, it is a willingness to make the relationship work. The study author Dr. Ted Hudson said, My research shows that there is no difference in the objective compatibility between these couples who are unhappy and those who are happy. 8. He celebrates your achievements. A man who believes in himself will always be comfortable in his own scheme and so will never be intimidated by his partner's success. If he celebrates your wins and strives for you to have more wins, he is your man. Keep him. You may not often be at your best, but if it makes your leader look like the best and he keeps cheering you on while not looking down on his own goals, he is a keeper. A study published in the Journal of Personality and Social Psychology revealed that when couples celebrate each other's achievements or wins, they become more satisfied with your relationship as opposed to couples who react negatively or were indifferent. 9. He shares your values. You both must have similar views about life. It doesn't mean that you both agree on all issues, but where the matter of value is coming, you both should be able to see eye to eye on such issues. If you both share the same values, you are most likely to handle problems the same way. When you share the same priorities, you can deal with work, jobs, relationships, etc. almost the same way and because you are both growing together and going in a single direction, your respect for each other increases according to a study. When you have a similar outlook in life, it is crucial to a successful relationship. 10. He is always improving himself. You may constantly be seeking ways to develop yourself, but if he is not into such a business, it's not a good sign. If he encourages your dreams, let it be that it's because he has his own dreams which he is actively pursuing. He should not be attached to your success because he isn't pursuing his. Your ideal man must be a learner. He may learn new things, develop new skill sets, read a book. A smart man takes pride in becoming better almost every day. This will create an intellectually challenging environment in the relationship which stimulates and builds the relationship. His personal self-improvement may be for himself, but it will be favorable to the relationship in the long run. 11. He can cook. In addition to all the above qualities, he can make the neighbors want to break into your kitchen whenever he is cooking. Keep that man. It is perhaps one of the sexiest things for a woman when their man can cook. Almost because he can cook, you can rest assured he will handle his own meals when you are not available. And even sometimes when you are, he will also tend to healthy meals. You want a healthy partner, don't you? 12. He is open and honest. He doesn't have to be perfect or even act like he is. But if he is open and honest, always quick to admit his mistakes and own up to his wrongs, keep him. Honesty still remains the best policy if you intend to have a great romantic relationship. You feel comfortable in a relationship where you know your partner is open and also where neither of you is quick to judge the other. People can find it difficult to open up themselves to others. This is why you need the right man in your life. One with whom you can be vulnerable and still feel safe and sane. Your man may wisely keep things private, but he will not keep things away from you. Neither will he hide his feelings because that could create a beat of tension in the relationship. While he is open and honest with you, he will also encourage you to be open and to share your own feelings. This is how you both grow in a healthy romantic relationship. You can both be the most genuine with each other without fear of being judged or looked down on. 13. He is not selfish. It's great that he should always think to take care of himself. But when does he put you first? If in all things he puts you first, it's a great sign. Just a relationship involves two people. You both may not readily love the same thing. But if he is always willing to compromise, you will have a great relationship. If he puts your needs first before he's and never thinks the world revolves around him, he is a keeper.
