What women want is actually pretty simple. The problem is, the simple explanation doesn't have enough detail to help change your habits.

They want a sensitive jerk (oxymoron?)!

They want confidence, strength, personality, and intellect shown by the way you interact socially with others. They also want looks, but this trait doesn't weigh as disproportionatly as mens in this area. They also want a decent career, but not necessarily wealthy. They want the well rounded guy, and I aint talkin' about your beer belly!

The problem is, they also want someone sensitive, who will put them first and care about their feelings and act upon them. You must also balance this out by not being a milksop who agrees to everything. Don't be afraid to stand up for yourself, even with them.

Last of all, an awful lot of people like to only hit on girls out of their league. That's not to say you can't try your luck, but expect your chances of success to decline. If she's the next mag cover with her taut midriff showing and you look like Igor on a Haaagen-Daas diet, don't expect ANY amount of charm and personna to make up for it. Try to date at your level. You'll be much happier.
