women want just slave  to fellow her.to apply her orders.

to practice her instructions word by word.

to say to her (what a beautiful girl you are.i have never ever seen  a pretty girl like you)

women are always changing (may be it is a psychlogical disorder)

not all women.

Life is tough, and dull sometimes, so we need someone to be with us supportively and understandingly, even silently sometimes.

 

So pls don't ask what a woman wants from a man. I assume people just need each other…...

I think women want a man to be humorous, have a good job or study hard at school. Your appearances are not very important. A man have to be a good listener and respect women. Be thoughtful and love her
