Women do look for a lot of those qualities, but if you have those qualities you'll get our good qualities back in return.
Like putting your girl first. I honestly can't STRESS how important this can be in a relationship. I put my boyfriend first and he puts me first, so no one feels underappreciated or not loved. If you don't put your girlfriend first, she'll probably end up thinking that you don't care about her. Trust me, it's a quick way ruin a serious relationship.
Being a family man's important too, because this will let your girlfriend (serious girlfriend) know that you'll be able to have a family and be good day. It's also good to try to fit in with your girlfriend's family so that she knows you really love her and want to try to be a part of the family.
And yeah, when your girlfriend's sick, you should take care of her. I take care of my boyfriend when he's sick and he does the same for me. It's actually very sweet and you can show a lot of love by just heating up some Campbell's soup and bringing it to your sick beloved.
And be happy when your girlfriend's happy. Smiles are contagious.
All the other stuff on that list is "meh".
But it can also apply to women too. As a woman, I think we should all do that same things for our boyfriends.

It just sounds creepy that you would tell your GFs mom.xmetatr0nx said:
Would you want your GF to find out about your promotion from HER mom?
*sigh* When will they realise that everyones preferences are different?
For example, if I found out that a guy was a sensitive, family man I'd run a fucking mile. But for other women, that's the perfect guy

Yeah, it's all common sense really, put your partner first, within reason, and make them feel appreciated, and they should in turn put you first and make you feel appreciated.VanityGirl said:
I've always found it quite easy because it's just common sense, finding a partner in the first place is the harder part though.
... No woman would want this unless she had already decided the guy was "for keeps".
That's the biggest problem with these things. They're great with a dude you already plan on spending the rest of your life with, but with anyone else it just seems clingy and disturbing.
Further proof that everyone knows what they want, they just have no fucking clue what they want.
There is probably a better way of wording that but FUCK IT I am tired.

There are too many of these lists, but I must say, these don't look unreasonable at all. But then again every person is different, that includes girls (no shit Sherlock), and thus every girl wants a different kind of guy (or gee, not a guy at all!). This isn't a list to decide if he's a keeper really, if anything, this list is more of a collection of things that are indications that it's a serious relationship.
I must say that I would most of those things though, the major exception being the "call your mum" thing. Would you, as a mum, want to hear about your daughters promotion from her boyfriend? It just sounds...wrong to me, really. It feels weird to call her mum before she could, it's something that to me actual sounds like something she should tell her mum herself becáuse it's her mum.
But in general, I must say, that these lists always look like the girl has to be constantly treated like a goddess and shouldn't do anything back. Why are there never lists like "10 things that show that your girlfriend is a keeper" or something? Where is the equal treatment?

i don't see how those are overly unreasonable
most of those types of lists are just commonsense on how to treat people nice and how to be a good person to the one you love
i mean seriously are you going to go far in a relationship if you never talk to the person and go off and do your own thing all the time?

Indeed, it is very strange. It saddens me to think anyone would accept this article as truth. I can sum the whole thing up in only one point rather than their convoluted 10.VanityGirl said:
How can you tell he's a keeper? He has absolutely no concept of an equal relationship and would gladly throw himself off a cliff if it means his mother-in-law will grin approvingly.
The idea of a relationship only having hope for success when one person is a spineless, half-wit, 'happy-dispenser' befuddles me. No matter how much I love a person, I will not be making my movie choices based on "what would make her happy?" every single time.
