What Men Want
What Men Need From the Women Who Love Them
by O. B. Levy
About this book
Women are often encouraged to know their standards, recognize red flags, understand their worth, and be clear about what they need in a relationship.
All of that matters.
But there is another question that gets asked far less often: What does he need from a woman?
In What Men Want, O. B. Levy explores some of the emotional and relational needs men may struggle to put into words: the desire to feel respected, wanted, noticed, trusted, supported, safe enough to be vulnerable, and valued for more than what they provide.
This is not a list of demands. It is not a formula for getting a man, keeping a man, or excusing unhealthy behavior. And it does not assume that every man wants the same things.
Instead, this book helps women look past assumptions and become more curious about the men in their lives. At the same time, it gives men language for needs they may have felt but never learned how to explain.
Whether you are single, dating, engaged, married, or years into a relationship, What Men Want will challenge you to think differently about how men experience love, connection, respect, desire, vulnerability, failure, loyalty, friendship, and being chosen.
The goal is not to tell you exactly what your man needs. The goal is to help you ask a better question: What do you need from me?
