women always in need of attention

My friend told me that women always in need of attention from her men, is it a truth? If you don't pay enough attention to them, they might think you aren't care about them anymore, or they might presume that you have another one out there besides her. She will all of the sudden, change her attitude toward you. So, if you want to please your girls, you might need to call her from time to time, or send her some flowers on significant days. They will be pleased if you done all these basic stuff first. I need some opinion from the women side of this discussion, would you agree with my friend's saying here?

Sure women like attention! Doesn't everybody? We like to get flowers but that's not always necessary. It's the little things that count really. You call because you're thinking of her, you are aware and interested in what's going on in her life...now that's what women really like.

Yes, women need love and attention. If you are serious about a woman, wouldn't you want to spend time with her? Make her smile?

But, we don't need ALL of your attention. Just show us that you care and you think of us in that special way.

You think so? I love to take care of them with all of my heart, but sometimes, they are so cold about it. and I thought they won't like it at all. I am totally confusing about it.

I am middleaged and even from the time I was young , if I had expected all this I could have kept on expecting without one single desire being fulfilled because my husband is simply not the type.luckily I was brought up in avery sensible manner by my mother who dinned ito my ears that there must be no expectations in life and only then there woud be no disappointments.I was happy with whtaevr I got and since I had no expectations there was no problem.Now, regarding modern girls I frankly do not know.But, one thing-- whatever you do you must do it consistently.You must not put on an act or do something if that does not come from within your heart.If your budget does not permit certain things it is better to say all this well in advance so that she won't nurture expectations.If you have a tough work schedule then you have to tell her thta you maynot find time to keep messaging her every now and then.Be safe than sorry.SHewould then know what to expect.

Hello again clorissa.. Oh yea I totally agree.. I think that women need to be showed that extra attention. I know for myself when the hubby brings in flowers for no reason, it lets me know that he was thinking about me. To me that is the key thing. I want to know that out of sight that I ain't out of mind too. Buy something small or just a hug out of the blue is worth and means more than the expensive things. Extra attention goes a long way in a relationship.

Hello clorissa123 As a woman I say we need appreciation more than attention if you appreciate us then everything else falls into place, men have to understand we woman have to deal with so much cooking/cleaning/working/monthly issues, this is alot to deal with not to mention if we have kids to take care of its not easy, so show some appreciation like honey that was really nice how you did this, or the kids/house looks really good today, wow that dinner was really good thank you,How was work, you see these little things will not only show us you appreciate what we do it will also make us want to do them even more, all these cost you nothing these are simple words in our mind is worth more than anything you can buy So hopefully you actually have love for the woman in your life then these things will come easy

I think that your friend is right. Modern women are no longer due to the survial or safety reason to men.they need men to give emotional comfort and moisture .The more a woman is no longer because the traditional reasons for men,women need men to give more care and love. Evey if a woman chose to bocome a full-time mother and had to rely on men to support her ,she still needs a man's love.

Yes, to a point. All women like to have some attention from their man. However, not all women like to be smothered, so don't go crazy overboard with the calling and flowers unless you know that's something your woman wants/needs from you. Personally, I don't have enough to talk about that I need to talk to my boyfriend everyday, but I definitely like to touch base 3-4 times a week (every other day or so). With the flowers, it is always nice to acknowledge a special occasion. Even better though, is when you get flowers "just because" and most women don't need a dozen roses. Often times, a simple $3-5 bouquet of daisies from your supermarket or a single red rose is enough to do the trick. Good luck! :)

i couldn't agree more,women like to get attention ,a new dress,a new shoes,she wish people can notice that and give her a praise.so if you wanna flatter a woman,the best way is keep attention on her and praise her timely.lol...and the best way to make a woman mad ,is no matter what she wear or how beautiful she is today,you pretend you don't find anything and keep attitude as usual..

I am a man, but I agree with your friends. Woman does need attention. I have a girlfriend and she really need my attention all the time. If I missed a little time attending her she'll get furious and very mad. But I really have this great pleasure when I fulfill the needs of my girl. I really like to give attention too, so that she'll feel appreciated and not left out. Woman most of the time don't understand man. They might think that if we don't give attention to them they would presume that we don't care at all. Well there are certain things that we have to attend to that's why we can't be with you girls all the time. It is just a matter of understanding each other. And yes woman always need the attention of her man

I disagree. We, women is not in need of attention. We just love being loved and cared for so much. But not to the sense that we're seeking for attention. But maybe, that depends on the person. Not the personality.

is true. the more attention u give, then the more powerful the love to them.earlier, if u not give attention to them, they will try to get your attention. if you continue not give her attention, than the relation will say goodbye to you.
