We're suckers for romance. You probably know that, right? Never ask, do you want flowers? Just do it. If we have to ask for it, it doesn't count. On the flip side, you get major brownie points for sitting through a chick flick with us.2. PLEASE listen to us. I know it can be hard because we talk so much. But when you don't listen, we take it as a sign of disrespect and it really pisses us off.3. If you ask, we'll tell you exactly what sexually makes us melt. The trick is to ask in the moment. If you ask over dinner, most women will be too uncomfortable to give you a straight answer. (not me or Pinkee, of course!) But if you're doing it almost perfectly and ask what else you should do, we'll beg you for it.4. When you give a compliment, be specific. I know I have nice legs, but if you tell me you love how my thigh curves like that, it's a real turn on. Also, you should know that you can never give too many compliments. Really.5. NEVER, ever forget a birthday or anniversary. See #1 for reference. In fact, see #2 as well. Write it down, or double check for the birthday on Facebook. Don't even joke about forgetting either one; we won't think it's funny. There's just no excuse. Even if you're just friends with a woman, wish her a happy birthday.6. Respect my time. If we're going to do something on the weekend, let me know by Wednesday or Thursday at the latest. I have a life, too, and don't want to wait until the last minute to make the rest of my plans. Call when you say you'll call, and show up when you say you will. I'll try not to be late either (but if I am, it's because I'm primping for you).

bootydoctors is verified as being by the original poster of the question Girlfriend000,I totally agree. In fact, how can someome EVER promise? I mean, someone can have the best of intentions, but sometimes things happen that are out of our control. I prefer to make agreements, not promises. And then to say things like "I'm planning to..." because truthfully, what if I get hit by a bus that day? It's always possible to change an agreement, much better than breaking a promise!Pinkee

1. If I give you flowers the correct response is "Thank you." not "You shouldn't have!" unless you really don't want them. Also you get no points for sitting through a movie I like. If you don't want to see it I'm not forcing you to.
2. I am a great listener. Sometimes I'd like to say something as well. Conversations build relationships.
3. I shouldn't have to ask. If we are close enough to be in a sexual relationship then we should be comfortable enough to talk about sex.
4. Unless I hear this directly from the woman I'm with I probably won't compliment too often. In my experience anyone who compliments you a lot is lying and trying to get something from you. That is not the impression I want to give.
5. Tell me when your birthday is. Also I will remember when we went on our first date. I won't remember the first time we shared a can of soda. I probably have different ideas on what deserves an anniversary that you.
6. Sometimes I like to be spontaneous (remember #1?) I don't always make plans so I might not always be able to tell you days ahead. Don't get mad if you can't make it.
