Why she thrives on praise, adoration and being cherished

The feminine heart is elusive, yet simple.

Men often overlook what a woman truly needs, because he is driven by vastly different things.

Gentlemen, here's a gentle reminder that she is not like you.

She doesn't want to be seen as your colleague, she wants to be seen as the goddess that she is.

When a man tells me he respects me it feels nice.

But it doesn't open my body or make me melt into my feminine heart.

When he compliments my intelligence, integrity or drive, the masculine in me appreciates that... but my feminine withers.

Because as a woman, being seen by a man in my true-est essence means more to me than being respected by Him.

Said differently; She doesn't want to be respected, she wants to be chosen.

She doesn't want to be admired, she wants to be adored.

She doesn't want to be appreciated, she wants to be cherished.

When a man truly sees a woman - not what she does or achieves but who she is in her essence, something in her exhales.

She softens.

She opens.

She becomes even more of herself in his presence.

This is what adoration does.

It doesn't weaken her, it frees her.

Most women THRIVE on compliments that are genuinely offered with no agenda.

"You look beautiful."

"I love that dress on you."

"Don't you look delicious tonight..."

But be warned, if you compliment her as a means to get something don't expect the same result.

It costs nothing to reach for her hand.

To look at her like she is the only woman in the room.

To tell her she is beautiful.

These small acts of devotion are what she will remember in her body and heart long after grand gestures are forgotten.

For all men and especially if you are in partnership — continuing to adore her, love her and truly see her is what every woman with a feminine core needs (often more than she may realise...)

Remember gentlemen:

Adore her.

Cherish her.

Protect her.

Claim her.

Attune to her.

And she will be yours, forever.
