All good things are three, and what a man needs is no exception.

As you probably know, a relationship is about fulfilling your and the other person’s needs.

Are you afraid you can’t be that person for your boyfriend or husband?

If you have that fear, let me tell you that what you will discover is not only the three things every man needs but also the:

  • How to be what a man needs
  • Why and when he needs to be alone
  • How to fulfill his every need

However, since this is an article about the three things a man needs, I will begin by revealing them to you and then share what you should do to achieve them.

The three things every man needs in a relationship, which you, as a woman, need to provide, are:

  1. Emotional stability and satisfaction
  2. Physical satisfaction
  3. Mental or psychological satisfaction

I will argue that it is not limited to who he is, what he is, or what he makes since this varies.

If you can give him at least two, but preferably all three, satisfaction that he desires, he will be less likely to leave you since you will give him exactly what he is looking for.

But, if you want to know how to give it to him, you should read the full article that continues below.

How to Be What He Needs

To be what he desires and needs, you need to know what he seeks in a woman.

Even if every man is an individual, and what he needs varies between men, the three things you can still do will increase your desirability in his mind.

These are the things that I will address right now before I go into specific details on what you should do.

Since this is an article, I can not address your specific situation, but I can give you an overview to help you figure out how to get over the things you obsess about, which he probably never notices.

1. Acknowledge Him

The first step is to acknowledge him.

Tell him about how unique and special he is and what you appreciate about him.

Unfortunately, humans aren’t good at reading each other’s minds or thoughts, so it is good to acknowledge what he does, how he makes you feel, and which needs he satisfies in you.

He will open up and talk with you if you tell him what he contributes to the relationship.

Communication is vital in every relationship, and if you can give him a slight ego boost now and then, he will start to have more in-depth conversations with you and want to do things to improve your quality of life.

2. Praise Him Now and Then

The second step is to praise him.

Now, I don’t mean that you should worship him, but some appraisal now and then will make him feel better about himself and increase the chances that he will love you even more.

To do it right, you need to know how to praise him when he deserves it.

Occasionally, you can drop a line of appreciation in your conversation, and he will notice it, even if he doesn’t say anything.

That will boost his confidence, and he might return the favor when you least expect it.

3. Affirm Him

Affirmations like “you make me so happy,” descriptions about how he makes you feel, or that particular thing he does to you make your life easier will increase your relationship quickly.

As long as you are honest and say things you mean, this can go a long way.

You see, it is a profound human need and something every human needs, and when you affirm his actions or specific behaviors that you like, the likelihood of him repeating them will increase.

That will make him keener to continue to be in a relationship with you rather than another woman.

Three Things a Man Needs – Emotional Stability

I will first address the need for emotional stability in the relationship.

You, as a woman, are the only person in the relationship that can give him a sense of emotional stability since most men are not used to talking about their emotions and putting words to what they feel.

It is because most men show their emotions by taking specific actions that reveal their relationships.

Have you ever wondered why men give you gifts now and then? It is why he behaves like that, and he secretly hopes you will provide him with a safe environment to display his affection for you.

2. Physical Satisfaction – Touch Is Vital

Another thing you need to know is that he craves physical satisfaction.

However, it is not only the kind of intimacy he wants to experience with you in the bedroom that matters but, more importantly, your touch.

Touching him is very important, especially a gentle stroke on the back of his hand.

Giving him a massage or rubbing his back while praising him is something he will appreciate since the skin is the body’s largest organ.

More importantly, a light stroke is often better to give him a sense of sensation that makes him feel calm.

When you touch him, he will experience intimacy and connection, making him appreciate you even more.

Since many women struggle with physical intimacy, I will address it at the end of this article.

3. Mental or Psychological Satisfaction – Talk His Language

Lastly, it would help if you focused on his mental satisfaction.

You need to focus on one thing, and I refer to it as talking his “language” since this is unique to every man, but there are some common traits that I will address now.

Understanding When He Needs to Be Alone and Why

If you understand when he needs to be alone and why he needs to be alone, he will be more likely to open up and have honest and in-depth conversations with you when he needs to have them.

I know that many women think there is something wrong when he becomes distant.

I have addressed this issue multiple times on this blog, most recently in the article “Why is he ignoring me?

Sometimes, he needs to think things through, which has nothing to do with you.

He will reward you if you are not asking him about it but instead giving him some space and alone time with his thoughts.

If you keep asking him about it, he will shut you out of his most-inner thoughts, and you might risk losing him.

To make him draw closer to you, rather than pulling away from you, it is essential that you give him some “me”-time, and later, he will reward you with “we”-time.

How to Fulfil His Every Need

If you want to fulfill your man’s mental, physical, and emotional needs, you can do it in many ways.

One of the best ways to “learn” to start talking his language is the different ways I discuss in-depth in the article “35 Ways to Make a Man Desire You“.

Of course, there is more to it than creating a desire in him.

If you want the best possible relationship with a man, you need to be fluent in his “language” and move out of your comfort zone to get the connection you want.

The best way to do it is by following these tips that Felicity shares with you in her video.

What If I Can’t Give My Husband What He Needs?

If you can not give him what he needs, it might indicate that something has happened to you in the past, that you need to seek professional counseling, or lack confidence.

Since this article is not giving any counseling, I will address some confidence issues now.

You may think you are not the right woman for him for various reasons, and in most cases, it is only something going on in your mind.

He probably never thinks about these things that you do.

Sometimes women struggle with satisfying their men when they are intimate, and if you do, you might appreciate the words Felicity shares with you in this video.*

I Can’t Give My Boyfriend What He Needs – What Should I Do?

If you can’t give your boyfriend what you think he needs, you need to ask him.

Ask him what he needs and expects from you since that is the only way to learn his expectations for you, right?

Communication is critical; even if asking him might feel stupid, it is always better to ask than assume things.

If you don’t know them, you can never fulfill his expectations, or satisfy them emotionally, physically, and psychologically, which I shared some insights with you above.

It will only cause you more unnecessary heartache.

Therefore, I recommend watching this video where Felicity explains the words that fulfill every man’s most secret and forbidden desire.*

I hope you have enjoyed this article and have a fantastic rest of your day.

To your success,

Rickard
