As someone who's now been with a guy for going on ten years, the answer is "sort of". I'm generally pretty wary of anything claiming to define "what men want" or "what women want". It's a pretty huge generalization to make, even if you really just mean heterosexual American men.

That said, it's not a bad set of very general rules of thumb. It just doesn't work for every situation. A sense of humor is a pretty good idea for expressing your feelings in a lot of cases. But in a serious, long term relationship, a very sincere love letter can actually work pretty well. And while showing your feelings in a physical way can be very romantic, not every guy is going to see that as the best and ultimate expression of how you feel.

The one I'd pay the most attention to is number five because that's pretty much what EVERYONE wants. There's this idea that seems to come into full force around this time of year that any woman can be pleased somewhere between flowers, chocolates, and jewelry. All of those are nice, but not nearly as nice as something that shows this guy is really trying to think about what would make you happy as an individual. And of course it works the other way around too. The most romantic thing you can do for any person is anything that says "I love you enough to work on finding out what really makes you happy."
