Men Who Got A Girlfriend For The First Time Share 45 Things They Found Out About Women

That 99% of the time when they come to us to vent or go off about something, that is literally all they want to do in that moment. They are not looking for Mr. Fixit, just someone to sit in the mud with them.

The things that men do to impress women mostly just impress other men. Most women don’t actually give a s**t about your car, your abs, your muscles, your d**k size, etc.

That pockets can be fake.

Never occurred to me that clothing would have fake pockets! Fake pockets?!

Ladies, you deserve real pockets that can hold all sorts of dumb c**p. F**k the patriarchy, get you some pockets!

They do makeup to impress themselves and other women, it has very little to do with looking good for dudes.

I always thought women did makeup to attract guys but my girlfriend said it was because she wanted to feel pretty and I believe it.

If you want to know what women want, ask women and not your buddies.

Periods are no joke.

The pain, cramping, headaches. It’s like having a flu once a month. Idk how women work full time like this.

Obviously not all women get strong period symptoms, but still.

They actually appreciate small efforts more than big gestures.

They get harassed a looooooooooot. Sure I knew, vaguely, but now that I hear about her experiencing that on a regular basis it's way more concrete. .

They’ll love you to the ends of the earth as long as you don’t let them down.

That taking a shower and washing their hair are two different types of showers.

They move through the house like ninjas, man. You never hear them until they're standing in the doorway and say "whatcha doin, babe?" and send you three feet into the air.

Women are extremely perceptive towards emotions and demeanor. If something is slightly off, they'll know.

I came to see that emotional intelligence is far more important than I had previously believed. Being present, communicating, and making small gestures all have a significant impact. Consistency, respect, and listening are more important than flashy romantic gestures.

Women love the little things, tell her she’s pretty, tell her she smells nice, remember her birthday, call her, listen to her talk, give her attention, these things mean more to them than they show.

Turns out they’re just as nervous around us as we are around them. Everyone’s just winging it.

The bra and panties rarely match.

The amount of toilet paper used… having to go from changing the roll every couple weeks to every few days.

Even the most attractive and seemingly put together woman can be staggeringly insecure.

They're all wildly different. Just be prepped to go with whatever and communicate effectively.

You should probably have a second towel and keep your bathroom spotless. They don't care much if your living area is perfect but that room in specific is a comfort zone.
