What do you think women want in a man?

Do you think what women say they want in a man reflects what they really want?

When it comes down to it do you think finances are more important than character?

What character traits do you think women look for in a potential partner?
Things like: kindness, self-control, awareness, sensitivity, ambition, desire, passion...

I am curious to know what people think.

I wouldn't out right say money, but try getting someone to date you after telling them you don't have a job.

I just wish relationships were comprised of two people taking care of their own financial needs instead of relying on each other.

I think most woman want a man to be financially secure, in that he doesn't need to be rich but they don't want to date a guy with no job who is broke.

That only matters if he expects his partner to support him or pay his debts. It seems that nobody ever considers that he might not accept any financial aid, but they never ask and they just assume.
