Mistakes Women Make When Trying To Win Over A Man

 

As a man I’ve observed, through my personal interactions
with women, that there are basic things that the majority of
women do that majorly hinder winning over a man’s heart.
Understanding these things can help women not sabotage
their own relationships.
 

1. Using s*x as a weapon

I’m not specifically referring to s*x itself, but rather using
your body to get all the attention.
Ladies, keep in mind that your image is like a magnet. You
attract the type of person that you are presenting yourself as.
If you are overly drawing attention to your body, you’ll
attract superficial, shallow men instead of intelligent,
educated and sensible ones.
A smart woman uses her mind, not her body, because she
knows her beauty is actually in her personality, rather than
her appearance alone. Physical attraction can bring
temporary satisfaction; but personality and character are
what actually form a rewarding relationship. Those should be
your focus.

2. Being unambitious

Smart, educated men will not be interested in you if you’re
way below them intellectually. Raise your standards!
Get a higher education, work toward an ambitious career,
read inspirational books to keep your mind active, attend
museums and art exhibitions, learn about other cultures and
travel when possible, etc. If your standards are high, you’ll
attract men with similar standards who are genuinely
interested in you.

3. Not taking care of your body

You don’t have to have perfect curves; but do your best to
stay in shape and keep looking good. It helps with so many
things — from getting a job to getting a boyfriend!
God made your body, and you should take care of it. A
woman not taking care of her body comes across as one who
doesn’t care about herself enough to respect her own body.
The message it sends to men is, “If I do not respect and like
myself, why should you?”

4. Being too shy

You need to overcome the fear of initiating a conversation
with someone who interests you, as well as allowing that
person to approach you. Shyness denotes insecurity, and can
make you seem immature. There is absolutely nothing wrong
with making the first move. If you don’t approach him,
chances are someone else will, and you’ll miss out on a great
opportunity.

5. Despising the Golden Rule

The rule “Treat others as you wish to be treated” is very
effective in dating. Do not expect him to treat you like a
queen if you don’t treat him like a king. If he shows interest
first and you don’t return it, beware: He could give up on
you. Reciprocity is everything.

6. Trying to control him

Ladies, this is seriously a horribly annoying behavior. No
one likes to be given constant orders. Men run away from
women who try to change their habits.
Sure, some bad habits (like consistently ditching you for his
friends) need to be improved — but not by force. If you
value your relationship, you need to know that trying to
control your man will only drive him away. If he has nasty
habits that you’ve discussed with him, and he doesn’t wish to
change, move on and look for someone better suited for you.

7. Being jealous

Jealousy usually comes from insecurity. Unless you want a
quick exit to single life, learn to love yourself as much as you
love your man. Analyze your own feelings and the possible
causes of your insecurity, and then look at your relationship.
How is it now and how do you wish it were? Then talk to him
and try to negotiate a solution. You can only win!

8. Being clingy

I’m an exception among men, because I love a clingy
woman; but most men hate it. Take it easy! Don’t obsess over
him. Don’t try to claim “ownership.” You must earn him, not
kidnap him.

9. Having no opinion

Another quite annoying thing is when a woman won’t let the
man know how she truly thinks and feels. Frankness and
sincerity must be a two-way street. Men dislike when women
change their opinions to match what they think the man
wants to hear.

10. Making him beg for forgiveness

Only weak or immature men accept such behavior. Unless
you want a slave rather than a mature and determined man,
don’t expect him to grovel to earn your forgiveness. This in
no way creates a balanced and rewarding relationship. He
will make mistakes — and you will too. Forgive him.
Love someone like you would want to be loved, and you’ll
have great chances of finding lifelong love.
And remember: Even after marriage, you still need to date
and flirt daily.
