10 Things Girls Wish Guys To Know About Them

When it comes to things girls wish guys knew, the list is a lot longer—and more interesting—than you might think. Sure, men and women share the same basic blueprint, but when it comes to understanding each other, there’s often a hilarious gap.

Take, for example, the sweet but totally misguided idea some guys have that women roll out of bed with flawless hair and perfectly done makeup. As if!

Girls aren’t “mysterious creatures.” We just think a little differently. But different doesn’t mean complicated. What does make things complicated, though, is when guys don’t put in the effort to understand us better.

So, to make life easier (and your relationships smoother), here are a few things girls wish guys knew. Learn these, and trust me—your girlfriend, your crush, or even your female friends will thank you for it.

# The Staring Game

We don’t enjoy being stared at unless we’re staring back. If you’re at a café trying to catch a girl’s eye, glance a couple of times—but if she isn’t interested, don’t burn a hole through her with your x-ray vision. It won’t change her mind.

# Looking at Other Girls

When you’re on a date, keep your eyes on your date. A sneaky glance at the girl at the next table once is forgivable—but staring or trying to make eye contact is just plain disrespectful. And please, don’t compliment another girl on something you’ve never appreciated about your girlfriend. That’s a fast track to sulking and silent treatment.

# Special Days Matter

Yes, we celebrate a lot of special days. That’s because we like turning little moments into big memories. Forgetting birthdays or anniversaries hurts way more than you think. Remembering them, on the other hand, makes us fall harder for you.

# Shave Encounters

We put in a lot of effort to look good for you, but sometimes we let it slide—like skipping a shave on a lazy Sunday. Hair grows on girls too, shocking as that may seem. Don’t make a big deal of it, and definitely don’t compare leg hair lengths. That joke? Not funny.

# Talking About Feelings

We love conversations about emotions. Words carry layers of meaning, and instead of leaving things to guesswork, we’d rather talk it out. A warm, honest chat not only clears misunderstandings but also brings us closer. Great conversationalists are always a win.

# Chivalry Still Counts

Not every girl expects doors to be opened or chairs pulled out all the time. But when you treat us with chivalry, it feels good. Basic courtesy and respect never go out of style, especially when other guys around us clearly know how to behave.

# Cuddling & Spooning

For women, sex is more than just the act—it’s foreplay, afterplay, and the emotional connection in between. Cuddles, kisses, and little affectionate gestures mean as much as the physical part.

# Shopping Sprees

Shopping is therapy for us. It makes us feel good even on bad days. Instead of grumbling, join in sometimes—you might actually enjoy it. And we love it when you help pick out what looks best on us.

# Our Girl Gang Matters

Our friends’ opinions are important. Win them over, and you’re already halfway to winning our hearts. If our friends like you, trust us—they’ll make sure we like you more.

# Trust Her Hands

We’ve got nimble hands and sharp skills—whether it’s pulling out a splinter or unlocking a stubborn door. And yes, statistics say women are better drivers too, but let’s not stir that pot today.
