All the above. It seems like most of those adjectives are similar to each other though. I think I could never be with someone who didn't respect me though, or valued me, nor even accepted me. If they didn't accept me, then they probably wouldn't be respecting me or valuing me either way. Being understood is also important to me but just because someone understood you, it does not mean they want to be with you. Loved is the same thing to me as being respected for the most part. I think Love though, ecompassed ALL of that, so actually, I'll go with love. Love to me is respect and acceptance! Aka valued lol.

[elizamichale1]

Sometimes love comes as a relationship blossoms, but I believe partners must try to understand the other's personality and habits to be sure their bond will remain strong.

[serious]

Well just answering it hypothetically since I have always been single.

All the above points that you have mentioned is must for me otherwise the relationship will end.

[ab2shifty]

Happy

[Sonorous]

All sound good to me but if I had to choose one, it would be "respected."

[devilish-cutie]

all of the above, it wouldn't work without any of it for me

[Squatting_Slav]

Respected.

There was a statistic done somehwere, where on the whole, men would prefer being respected than loved. It couldn't be further from the truth for me

[Asker]

hmm could you be more specific? in what ways?

[Squatting_Slav]

Sure,

Small things; when criticised instead of being critiqued, eye rolls, interrupt during talking or doing things he enjoys, or complaining at him over small things rather than communicating

instead

It's amazing when she demonstrates she has faith in his capabilities. Appreciates his thinking. Let's him know—in actions as well as words—that she think he’s an amazing man and that she picked him to be with, and wouldn’t have picked an idiot etc.

[Squatting_Slav]

I have been loved in a previous relationship but not really respected.

To put in perspective, I would never treat my mum badly or disrespect her I would also treat my partner that way which entials trusting her words, not to talk back in a bad light, help her out whenever she needs it, not to put her down or call out her, regardless of how irational her actions can come accross always supporting never putting her down.

[Asker]

thats nice, how a man treats his mother is a huge indicator

[Squatting_Slav]

Couldn't agree more

[Tinat]

What I want in a relationship is to be happy, understood, respected, loved and valued. I think that's what I would need in a relationship. 🙂♥️

[Tinat]

The most.

[Asker]

Yeah i guess I'd want the same

[Tinat]

All of the above…. and be silly/banter with me to have laughters ☺️

[CuriousMufuxka]

Respect me. We are a team and we need to figure this shit out together side by side. Baby I want to be your world if you'll reciprocate. Let's build a fuckin legacy that kids might talk about on their iEyes many moons after our deaths.

Respected. I'm not going to deal with someone who doesn't respect me.

[SolitarySolace]

Alone

Dominated

[Asker]

in what ways?

[HouseMoat]

All ways. It is in my opinion that, women, by def. run the relationship. That's not a bad thing but, they basically do. So, why not just go along with it, right?

[TonyMetal___86]
