What Entrepreneurial Men Look for in a Life-Partner

I specialize in helping women create beautiful, healthy relationships with entrepreneurial men.

The truth is, the majority of dating content can only help you so much when you’re in a relationship with an entrepreneur.

Entrepreneurial men are truly a different breed.

They’re ambitious, they want to prove themselves, and they get a lot of bad dating advice from men who are afraid of true intimacy.

All that said, the quality of your partner will say more about you than anything else.

Here is what entrepreneurial men want in a partner (even if they don’t realize it).

To be Called Out

Entrepreneurial men are strong-willed.

Most of them probably like the idea of being with a woman who will call them out, but when it actually happens, they get offended.

Some of them think they want a partner who’s essentially just arm-candy and makes their friends a bit jealous, but little do they realize how valuable a woman like you is.

He will eventually come around and really appreciate you holding him to a high standard.

They desire to be the best and want a partner who will help them with that.

You will be invaluable if you are an active participant in his greatness rather than passively doing whatever he wants.

This means being on your A-game (whatever that means to you, I’m not implying “boss babe mentality”).

The best partners encourage each other to be better individually so they can be better together.

Nurturing & Understanding

Yes, entrepreneurial men want to be called out, but they also want to feel understood.

Your soft femininity is a balm to him.

There’s nothing better to him than logging off work (at least for a few seconds) and being embraced by the woman he loves (or really likes a lot).

They’re typically very good at constantly firing on all cylinders, so while it might seem contradictory to what I previously said, they really want to be with a woman who is comforting after a long work day.

You do this by not complaining about how long he works (there’s a difference between communicating a desire and complaining), asking about interesting parts of his day, making his favorite drink or snack, etc.

Really be there for him.

To be Appreciated

These men are running a business and constantly managing people.

They are doing their best but are rarely acknowledged for how much effort goes into running a team, putting out fires, and trying to keep everything up and to the right.

Your appreciation for him should be constant. Acknowledge him for the work he does in his business and in his personal life.

Does he make time for the gym? Compliment his physique. Does he make you laugh? Tell him how happy he makes you. Does he have weird knowledge about various things? Mention you love his random knowledge.

Truly celebrate him and speak life into him.

I.N.D.E.P.E.N.D.E.N.T

If you’re in a relationship with an entrepreneur already, you know they are busy.

It’s easy to get sucked into their world while your passions, interests, and well, whole life, begin to whither away.

You’re suddenly with someone who works 10–14 hours a day and if you’re not available when he is, you’ll never see each other.

There is a fine balance between being available for him and maintaining your own life, which is crucial for your happiness.

Trust me, you will go crazy if you never do anything for yourself and only do things with him.

Take dance, pottery, or language lessons. Do things that make you fall in love with life.

Dedication to Personal Growth

You are dating a man who wants to be the best of the best.

Like I said in the beginning, the quality of your partner says more about you than anything.

Entrepreneurial men want to be with a woman who is dedicated to her personal growth.

You are an asset to him the more you step into your divine femininity and learn more about how to be the most yummy, delicious, best version of yourself.

This doesn’t mean just reading books about it, it means actually implementing what you learn.

Take accountability. Have healthy habits. Take care of your health. Dress well.

(This is a great time to mention the Quietly Becoming community — a group of women who are learning how to step into ther divine femininity and attract and create healthy relationships with entrepreneurial men. Learn more here.)

Connection to Your Sexuality

Being connected to your sexuality is a beautiful sign of being connected to your femininity.

This doesn’t mean being obsessed with sex, posting half-naked photos, or self-pleasuring to ease stress.

This means being turned on by life and valuing your sexul energy as the life-force it is.

A woman connected to her sexuality is powerful, confident, and seductive.

When’s the last time you made something a sensual experience?

On your next walk, walk a bit slower. Notice the breeze on your face, the sounds around you, the weight of your steps and what parts of your foot feels the most pressure, how many different kinds of flowers do you notice?

Really connect to your body and your surroundings.

When’s the last time you looked at yourself naked in the mirror and appreciated the glory of your body.

Appreciating every curve, the life-force between your legs, the concave of your neck as it bends into your collarbone.

Don’t you see how beautiful you are?

Don’t you feel how good it feels to adore your body and how inspired you feel to take care of it?

Have Good Friends

If I’ve said it once, I’ve said it a hundred times.

Entrepreneurial men want to be with a woman they admire.

The company you keep impacts your thoughts, beliefs, and actions.

Be sure your friends are helping you become the woman you want to be.

Don’t be friends with someone just because it’s convenient or you’re lonely.

I know, making new, really great girlfriends is hard, but trust me, a period of loneliness is better than being friends with girls who hold you back.

Be Their Best Friend

Entrepreneurial men want to know you’re with them because of who they are as a person, not just how much money they make or the insane vacations.

Date someone you can laugh with. Who you never get tired of. Who is truly your best friend.

This life is fast-paced, you want to make sure your partner is someone you love being with.

(Of course, this goes without saying even if youre partner isn’t an entrepreneur).
