We all possess both good qualities and some not so good. The key? The good outweighs the bad. In relationships, that balance isn’t always easy to achieve. Some qualities of a good woman are highly overlooked, usually leaving the best women on the shelf or crying over another ruined relationship.
If you aren’t paying attention, you might miss out on a special woman who could change your life for the better.
Being a good woman isn’t about always putting others above yourself or giving in. It is in the moral compass that you have, the empathy you display, and the way you love. If you find a woman with these good qualities, you are one hell of a lucky guy. Don’t let her get away.
# She is nurturingThe ability to nurture is one of the best qualities that women possess. It is the ability to care for someone and to see their individual needs. Nurturing someone doesn’t mean that you “take care of them.” You recognize a person’s individual needs and seek to fulfil them when you can. If you have a woman who nurtures, you are golden.
# She is forgiving, but only when necessaryOne of the best qualities of a good woman is forgiveness. Some people just say, “I forgive you,” and some people mean it. There is a supreme difference. The woman who truly forgives doesn’t bring up your past ills at every fight.
If she forgave, she has forgotten. It remains in the past. However, don’t assume that means she will forgive you for anything – this is a woman who respects herself and if you do her wrong too many times, she’ll walk away.
# She isn’t spitefulOne of the hardest things not to be is spiteful. When someone does something to hurt or embarrass you, it is super hard to turn the other cheek and not want to return the favor. A woman who gets over something that hurts her without seeking to strike back is a woman with some pretty amazing qualities.
# She isn’t jealous
Women have a tendency to be jealous, not just in their relationships, but all the way around. Jealousy is a hard quality to deal with and it can destroy any good relationship.
It isn’t just about being jealous when you are out with or talking to other girls. It is about being jealous of any success or accomplishments they have. Not being jealous is one of those perfect qualities of a good woman.
# She is patient
Patience really is a virtue. It is difficult to sit and wait for the things we want. A woman who waits patiently for what she desires is rare. Not insisting on having what we want, when we want it, is a pretty unique quality in the new age of instant gratification. It makes for a much more harmonious life together too.
# She is empathetic
She feels for what someone else walks through. Not everyone is born with empathy or with the same degree of understanding. A highly empathetic woman cares for the people around them. When you hurt, she hurts, which makes communication a lot less arduous in your relationship with her.
# She challenges youAn often overlooked quality of a woman is the ability to challenge you. It is so much easier to be with someone who thinks that everything you do is incredible and is your “yes, woman.”
But, what they don’t do is make you the best you are capable of being. One of the qualities a good woman is the courage to challenge someone they love, even if it makes them upset. Because you want good things for them. Challenging someone is the hard road to take, but it is taken with love and concern.
# She encourages you
Sometimes, it is hard to take the difficult path, and you need a little encouragement. The woman who helps push you along and point out all the things you are capable of, is someone you want in your corner.
They are the ones who say, “Don’t give up,” “You will get there,” and “Get back on that horse” when things are rough. Encouragement is what lifts us up when we need it, and takes us higher even when we don’t think we can.
