As a man, what makes you feel loved?

46 comments

1. Blowjobs, backrubs, home cooked meals.

2. My girlfriend supporting me in life

3. According to car commercials
   A Subaru

4. Knowing that my worth isn’t tied to providing or being the perfect husband.

5. Displays of loyalty i haven’t asked for and support when I’m at my lowest. Casual touching and random loving comments and compliments as well as a healthy physical relationship. Probably not unlike the list many women would give.

6. Sexual intercourse with female girls.

7. Honesty, loyalty, and communication.

8. When I started dating my gf I casually commented I enjoyed this oldschool dessert nobody makes anymore. She made it for me the following weekend. It was the sweetest thing someone has ever done for me.

9. Appreciation. Respect. Communication. Intimacy.

10. When my payckeck drops inside my bank account.

11. Well I don’t really have any experience with that sort of thing but I doubt anything would make me feel loved since I know it’s all conditional.

12. Devotion.
    A comforting presence.
    Gentle caress.

13. Depends the person but usually just being exited to talk or be with me.

14. The same thing that makes a women feel loved. Compliments, hugs, gifts that I talked about that I wanted, being supportive of what I want to acchieve or try out, kisses, spending time with me and generally being in a good mood around me and because of me. What does that have to do with my sex? It’s not even related to my girlfriend. You should love your friends and family you spend time with aswell.

15. When someone randomly buys me food I like. My heart flutters and I just want to hug everyone when that happens.

16. A hug where the other person grips you tighter mid hug.

17. Hugging and tender kisses

18. Gently massaging your head until you fall asleep. Heaven.

19. Head scratches, hugs, getting a surprise kiss

20. Random hugs

21. My family, it’s not perfect but I’d take a bullet for anyone of them.

22. A lack of interest.

    But I’ve been working on that.

23. Acknowledging my existence. Taking an interest in what I like. Complimenting me. Positive surprises.

24. Probably the same things as women. I don’t know why y’all think that gender makes such a difference for everything. It’s kind of ridiculous.

25. Holding hands and just being near someone that I really like while I know that they like me too

26. Scratches and cuddles

27. Kind gestures

28. I forget.

29. My dog, nothing compares.

30. When I get to my desk in the morning and someone has left me an iced coffee and a breakfast sandwich.

31. Compliments. I am the worst person to take positive feedback for doing something nice for someone, I just do it because I’m a people pleaser. But it’s a good feeling getting a compliment or a sincere thank you❤️

32. It makes me feel loved when my wife really tries to understand how I’m feeling and lifts me up anyway she can through the day . She knows when I need my space and does anything she can to make me comfortable or make my day better .

33. When I’m with my gf I sometimes ramble about things I’m interested in and she actively listens and asks questions and stuff and it makes me feel like she cares 🥰

34. My gf called me Hun for the first time like 1hr ago, I’m still blushin lol idk why, I know it may not be considered something of physical or of giving endearment but this just hit me hard

35. M29 In a romantic sense: Those clear little signs that she gives almost subconsciously, that she is as attracted to me as I am to her. Big smiles when she sees me, little tentative steps to stand closer than most people do, trying to break the “everyday life” touch barrier by touching my arm or shoulder.

    Ehh… Falling in love mutually is the best. Hoping the next one will be the one.

36. Telling me personal stuff that means someone trusts me

37. When they make time for me.

38. I’ve been through so much in my life

    I suppose feeling loved would be nice but I don’t really need it. I have no use for these emotions.

    So, nothing really.

39. anything physical.. but i do mean anything not just sex, even something like a back scratch

40. Physical touch, a caress, hand stroking my hair, even a hand on my shoulder that says “i am here”

    i have trouble sleeping but when my girlfriend gently runs her finger on my nose to my forehead i fall asleep almost instantly

41. Platonically; when my family supports me, and express wanting me present.

    Romantically; I’ll let you know if I ever experience feeling wanted that way.

42. Actually caring about my feelings

43. A woman that puts just as much effort in as I do. She’ll treat me occasionally like I do hear, randomly for no reason. Initiates intimacy so it’s not all one sided. Isn’t afraid to stand up for me and willing to have my back.

44. Genuine effort

45. When my wife washes me in the shower. Sigh..

46. Partner resting head on my chest, or wanting to snuggle. Them being comforted by me being around is something special
