6. Take the lead

We’ve previously talked about how males like to chase, but sometimes one of the things men want from you is to take the lead and surprise them. It’s always nice to mix things up, so if he’s always the one to initiate your bedroom activity, why not try to start it?

Women aren’t the only ones who fear rejection, even if we’re talking about long-term relationships. Men love confident women who know what they want and aren’t scared to go for it (but the same goes for us too, right?), so it will be s*xy as h**l to see you take the lead and surprise him with something only you know how to do.

    What I look for is Respect, Honesty, Loyalty unless open relationship is establisted up front, Sense of Humor, Good Comunication. Someone who will attempt to join me and do what I like to do.

    “we” definitely do NOT need another “control freak”. The gov’t. issued one (very expensive) is enough for 4 men to have to deal with….. let alone by ourselves

    Not enough blatant honesty. How about incredibly great lovemaking, and I mean in every way? It’s two ways there, but most women I’ve been with prefer receiving, and that gets old sometimes.

    Women I’ve been with seem to just receive lovemaking than to give equally. Not enough blatant honesty in this article.

    Lot’s of men don’t believe in making love anymore no foreplay what so ever I’ve always felt making love should be given by both not just the men some men make all that noise thinking they’re doing something 3 minute action and that’s all you get lol it feels good to invent thing’s to spice love making stronger making each other feel good showing the love behind the feeling’s for both
