I came across this article a few years ago and was asking some guy friends if these things still ring true. Apparently, they do! So we figured it would be great to share for all the ladies on here. I know my single friends and I always question what guys really want and this gives us a little more insight into that. Not to mention it’s some great advice from men about what they wish we ladies knew/understood about them. Hope you enjoy!!

What He Wishes You Knew #1

Express yourself. It makes us proud, even if someone thinks you’re wrong.

What He Wishes You Knew #2

You look hot in running shoes and shorts. And that top thingy with the stripes.

What He Wishes You Knew #3

Bare, tan shoulders are underrated.

What He Wishes You Knew #4

If you think I’m speeding now, you should see me drive when you’re not in the car.

What He Wishes You Knew #5

If you’re truly interested in us, don’t play hard to get.

What He Wishes You Knew #6

Shopping is a chore, not an activity.

What He Wishes You Knew #7

When I screw up, go ahead and tell me—once.

What He Wishes You Knew #8

No question need ever be asked through a closed bathroom door if I’m inside. I love you less with each syllable you utter.

What He Wishes You Knew #9

I’m hot for you, not your sister or your friend or your coworker.

What He Wishes You Knew #10

My guy friends. Not only are they not negotiable, they’re your best sign that I’m not a whack job.

What He Wishes You Knew #11

Don’t be afraid to ditch the makeup. Natural is sexier.

What He Wishes You Knew #12

Leave the eyebrows alone. Plucked ain’t pretty.

What He Wishes You Knew #13

You can have sex with us any time you want. Seriously.

What He Wishes You Knew #14

When the game is on, we will pay attention to you if you’re nice about it. Bark, and we shut down.

What He Wishes You Knew #15

I don’t ask for directions because I’m just happy to be driving. Anywhere.

What He Wishes You Knew #16

Masturbation is merely practice for the big game. Encourage it.

What He Wishes You Knew #17

We crave hugs and hand-holding too. And no, it doesn’t always have to lead to sex.

What He Wishes You Knew #18

But you can have sex with us any time you want. Did we mention that?

What He Wishes You Knew #19

There’s no better sound in the world than you, having an orgasm.

What He Wishes You Knew #20

Though the exhaust note of a Porsche Boxster is pretty damn fine, too.

What He Wishes You Knew #21

I just may lie to make you feel good. Don’t be angry about this. You really weren’t looking for the truth anyway.

What He Wishes You Knew #22

When you get angry over some stupid little pointless thing, I question your intelligence.

What He Wishes You Knew #23

You’re really bad at faking it.

What He Wishes You Knew #24

If I offer my help while you’re getting ready, it means you’re late.

What He Wishes You Knew #25

Never ask me to pick out your outfit. (See above.) I will invariably get it wrong and make us even more late.

What He Wishes You Knew #26

Giving me two or three choices, however, can be fun. Assuming you will change outfits in front of me. Slowly.

What He Wishes You Knew #27

Err on the side of hot; I love to show you off.

What He Wishes You Knew #28

Unless we’re meeting my parents.

What He Wishes You Knew #29

When you call us at work “just to chat,” we’re not really listening; we’re checking our e-mail.

What He Wishes You Knew #30

Spring means baseball and skirts. Doesn’t need to be a mini-skirt; it’s been a long winter.

What He Wishes You Knew #31

Chicks who drink beer are hot. Better yet: chicks who drink beer and watch the game. Better still: chicks who buy us a beer during the game.

What He Wishes You Knew #32

We don’t mind being told we look good. Just don’t call it a “cute outfit.”

What He Wishes You Knew #33

We love ponytails.

What He Wishes You Knew #34

Being good in bed means a) enthusiasm; b) a sense of humor; and sometimes c) patience.

What He Wishes You Knew #35

The first time? We’re as nervous as you are.

What He Wishes You Knew #36

A random unexpected grope is always welcome, even in public. Especially in public.

What He Wishes You Knew #37

Make us laugh and we’ll want to hang around.

What He Wishes You Knew #38

Yes, I laugh really loud around the guys. And I always will, so deal.

What He Wishes You Knew #39

Sure, men stereotypically like to solve a woman’s problems. But a woman who solves her own while we watch? Instant erection.

What He Wishes You Knew #40

You can pick the movie, but have a reason.

What He Wishes You Knew #41

Do not expect to have a conversation via text message unless you use the words “naked” and “waiting.”

What He Wishes You Knew #42

Sometimes we wonder why any woman would want to be with us, much less someone as amazing as you. So, thanks.

What He Wishes You Knew #43

Anytime you cook for us, we’re happy.

What He Wishes You Knew #44

If you can hit a golf ball 150 yards, we just might fall in love.

What He Wishes You Knew #45

No, I don’t remember what he said next. Or she. Or anybody, for that matter. I’m a guy, not a tape recorder.

What He Wishes You Knew #46

We love you even more because you know we need to go out with the guys once in a while.

What He Wishes You Knew #47

And we love it when you hang with us guys, too.

What He Wishes You Knew #48

We have a keen sense of imminent danger. It sounds like, “Do you think she’s pretty?”

What He Wishes You Knew #49

Don’t rely on us for keeping you up on the news.

What He Wishes You Knew #50

Never say, “I know you better than you know yourself.” Nobody does.
