According to Steve Harvey, if you provide a man with these three things in a relationship, he won't leave: support, loyalty, and intimacy.
A real man's power resides in his innate values, his sense of balance, intellect, his ability to hold his own in any situation, and his mature handling of relationships. A real man treats a woman as an equal and a partner, rather than as an object.
A good man will be confident in himself and who he is. This is an important characteristic in a good man because when they are self-confident, they are less likely to change who they are and more likely to stay true to themselves.
He is reliable, trustworthy, you can count on him, and you know that when he says something, he means it. This is only something that can be proven over time as he shows you that he is consistent and genuine. Keeping someone's word once or twice, or only when things are going well, is something that anyone can do.
Women desire a man who is honorable, fair, and ethical. In terms of relationships, having integrity can help strengthen the bond a man has with a woman, as his moral principles will guide his behavior and help him to be the best partner that he can be.

Trust: A good man trusts his partner and does not try to control her or her actions. Kindness: A good man is kind and compassionate towards his partner. He makes an effort to show her that he cares about her well-being. Loyalty: A good man is loyal to his partner and does not betray her trust or cheat on her.
A real man doesn't take himself too seriously. A real man is passionate about something, and he lets that passion drive his goals. He isn't content to just sit and wait for things to happen to him. A real man sets goals for himself and does everything he can to realize them.
A man trusts his friends, significant others, and family. He follows through with what he says he'll do and expects others to do the same. A man never lies — to himself or others. He develops a conscience that gives him good feedback and allows him to be comfortable with the truth, even if it hurts.
A Gentleman Has Good Manners: Here, we agree with the dictionary. A gentleman is courteous, polite, and respectful. He says please and thank you, waits his turn in line, and treats others as they wish to be treated. He is an equitable conversation partner and displays good table manners and dining etiquette.
Men Seek Honesty In A Relationship
When it comes to relationships, men want to trust their partners completely. They also expect the trust to be reciprocated. A man cannot bear to be kept in the dark over any matter by his partner. They prefer to know the truth, regardless of how unpleasant it might be.
Men want to be treated in a way that doesn't diminish their egos or make them feel inadequate. They love to be praised and acknowledged for the things they do right. Above all, they like to be reminded that they are great guys who are well-loved and appreciated. Simply put, men care about the same things as women.
In this Triangular Theory of Love, Sternberg did exactly that and divided love and relationships into three components — intimacy, passion, and commitment. These three elements provide a man a strong sense of attachment, sexual compatibility, and security, making them fall head over heels in love with you.
When a guy respects you he listens to your feelings, and even if he doesn't agree with them, he lets you express them to him. When a guy respects you he knows that small things matter to a woman, something as [simple] as giving you his jacket when you're cold or holding open a door."
Many times, the true signs are in the little things like his body language, the way he prioritizes you, or when he goes out of his way to try to make you happy. Other signs he loves you are that he asks for your opinion on things and he says nice things about you.
