Wouldn’t it be nice to own a crystal ball to see what really goes through a man’s mind? I, for one, would love that, but that would just be too easy. Men are complicated as well. What subtle qualities do men really want in a woman when it comes to choosing a long-term partner? That is the question.  And I’m talking about real men — mature and grounded on a physical, mental, emotional, and spiritual level.
