Do you take a look around you and wonder why you don't have a long-term dating relationship? You watch what you eat, you work out five times a week, you are intelligent and yet you are still alone and dating only casually. Maybe it's because you need a lesson in how to charm the pants off a man. Did you ever walk through the mall and see an average looking woman with a really nice looking man at her side? The following tips may just answer your questions as to what she does to charm him that keeps that hot hunk of a man at her side.
Our grandmothers knew how to keep a man happy, satisfied and coming back for more. these wise ladies knew how to charm a man and get ahead of the tough dating competition. Spend a weekend looking at the old "I Love Lucy", "Bewitched" or the "Leave it to Beaver" re-runs and see how women kept their men happy in those days. Standing at the door in a neatly starched apron with a drink in your hand may not be your cup of tea. The bottom line is, to keep a man interested you will have to show an interest in him. Doing so will put you head and shoulders above other women who may be competing for your man's attention.
Listen to his problems. Don't say a word, nod your head in affirmation and just simply listen to him. Don't give him advice unless he asks you for it. Keep your problems to yourself at the beginning of a dating relationship. Don't give tough dating competition an edge. If you just need to vent, call your mother or best friend. Don’t do it on a date. Remember you want to charm him, not harm him. Don't scare him off. In the beginning of the dating relationship make it all about HIM. You’d be surprised how quickly things lead to dating a man who is hooked on you.
Dress to please HIM. Watch the kind of women he glances at when you are out in public. Take your clues from those women. Be a delight to be near. Make sure you smell good, look good and pay attention to your clothes. Even if you are only wearing a pair of jeans, make sure that they are clean and neat. And it won’t hurt your long-term dating results if they hug your curves just right, but not too tight.
Charm him, tell him he is wonderful and make sure you really mean it. If you are going out with him he must have some great qualities that interest you. Let him know how you love the masculinity of his voice, his broad shoulders, and his reliability. Concentrate on the good qualities of your man and mention them often. Does he have a delightful sense of humor, adventure, or romance? Be sure to admire the man your dating on the inside as well as on the outside. If the two of you ever grow old and gray together it is his character and personality on the inside that will endure far longer than his once sexy physique.
Appreciate the little things he does for you as well as the big things. Be a polite lady. Charm him, thank him. If he holds your chair for you at a restaurant tell him "Thank-you" and give him a big smile. Let him know that you appreciate a little bouquet of flowers, given to you spontaneously, as much as diamonds. Make dating you an absolute delight! The more a woman appreciates the little things a man does for her, the more he will give her and do for her, not only in dating but later on in marriage, too.
Show a genuine interest in his friends. Charm him, if his friends like you it will keep him coming back to you. A woman who tries to get a man to drop his male friends runs the chance of losing him. After all, his guy friends were in his life long before he started dating you. Your goal is to make him enjoy being around you so much that he sees less of them and more of you. The only way to pull that off, psychologically, is to not act as if you are jealous of his friends.
Cater to him. Find out what he likes to eat and fix it for him. If you aren't much of a cook you can take him out for a special date to a restaurant that serves it and you pay for it. If you know that his favorite team is on television and you hate sports, give in and put the game on for him. Successful dating relationships are full of little compromises that can become the stepping stones leading to marriage. Don't be so set in your ways that it's "your way or the highway." Don't forget, in a dating relationship you want to charm him not harm him. These days a lot of men are scared off by stormy women, or anything resembling a 'pushy broad', 'libber' or even an overly dramatic spoiled brat.
Charm him, laugh genuinely at his humor. Remember the boys in grade school? They were always doing silly little things to make the girls laugh. It was the boys' way of getting their attention. Men are just overgrown little boys. A man loves to see you smile and laugh at his jokes.
In order to get ahead of the tough dating competition a smart woman is not afraid to pull out all the stops in order to charm a man. These little things don't seem like much but they can make the difference when a man is making a choice between you and any other woman he might be dating.
