Men show love through actions rather than words or caring gestures. They want to achieve goals, and then they can focus on relationships. Women often work and can take care of themselves, but men still want to feel like they’re important and in control. In order to create a strong relationship, women need to let men be the providers. If women withhold sex for too long, then men will cheat on them or leave the relationship altogether. Women need to be firm about what they expect from a relationship, so that men know where they stand. Men want to feel powerful and useful, while women want relationships with men who will take care of them.
