We men folk are a fairly simple breed. We're easy enough to please, and most of us are fairly low maintenance, just so you girls know. Here are a few things that guys want girls to know during a relationship.
1. Don't be afraid to make contact first
Why does the guy always have to be the first one to talk? Never be afraid to be the first one to speak to a guy, you don't even need to come across super cool or anything. Literally just come over and say hi; it makes you seem confident and in control, and this is a really attractive quality. Don't worry, we don't bite.

2. Don't be afraid to message
Some people think that when somebody messages first it means that they're clingy - I don't think so. It just means that this person's on your mind. Guys love the idea that you're thinking about them; whether it's a little "hey, how are you doing?" or a deep meaningful conversation, we're usually pretty happy to chat. If we disappear don't freak out either, it just means something came up, we'll probably just resume like nothing happened.

3. Take charge
A lot of the time these days it's left to the guy to go ahead and plan the dates or days out. Sometimes it's more work than you might think, don't be afraid to try plan one yourself. Most of us would just be flattered if you try to plan a day with us. If you do things you know we like then you'll definitely get bonus points.

4. Don't be afraid to say what you want
90% of the time when guys try to get a girl something she likes we're completely unsure whether or not she'll like it. Don't play about with subtle hints, just be straight and tell us what you;re thinking. The same goes for dates and other things; don't be afraid to tell us what you want. Doing this in a relationship is really important too; being a good boyfriend is much easier if we know what you're thinking.

5. Please try to hold a conversation
There is nothing worse then going out with a girl who spends nearly the whole time on her phone; it's literally like eating dinner with a brick wall. If you're on your phone constantly then chances are you're not listening to anything we're saying. This kills any kind of conversation and spark in the relationship. If you're running low on topics, you can ask about us or something we're interested in; most of us have nothing to hide.

6. Take an interest
This can sometimes be very difficult I know. I mean, if a guy is literally just into sports and you just aren't, then it can be hell. We appreciate it, even if you feign an interest in something we like. Sometimes a simple "Hey how did *insert sports team name* get on last night?" will do. It just shows you're as interested in us as we are in you.

7. Spontaneity and a little crazy is a good thing
If you have random ideas that you think would be fun then say them. It could be something as simple as trying out a new restaurant or even going on a little adventure. A little spontaneity and crazy are good. They make you stand out and depending on who you're with, it can help with the kind of relationship you're in.

8. Loyalty
I'm not saying build a shrine to worship us, but this should go without saying, don't cheat on us, end of story.

9. We need man time
Occasionally we're going to go and hang out with our guy pals too. Don't hold it against us because it's really not personal, we just need our guy time. Whether it's a session of gaming or a night in a friend's, we may need our guy time.

10. Don't judge us
We probably do things that you don't like, but don't judge us. If you look down on us because of how we look then you really have to question why you're in the relationship. It's a two-way street and basic decency.

11. Reach for the bill
This one is a little circumstantial. You don't have to pay half all the time, but don't be afraid to go dutch and half it. Guys like to go through what's called the "check dance". This is the ritual procedure of waving the girl away from the bill. Don't be offended if he doesn't pay it all though; we're not made of money.
