There are countless times when men go wrong with their approach towards women. For this, they have themselves to blame and not the so called irrational mind of a woman. Men harbor a lot of misconceptions about women, many of which are quite wrong. Here are 6 of them. Make sure you don’t repeat them with your next girl.
1. Romantic mushy stuff
Going overboard with romantic mushy stuff makes you look corny, cheesy and desperate. Contrary to popular perception, most girls like as much romance in their lives as guys do, they are not suckers for romance. If you start being juvenile by addressing her with mushy nicknames, keep gifting her flowers, teddy bears, love letters and write poems for her even though you are no poet, she is going to feel smothered. Be the man and not the woman in a relationship. Take it easy and show as much romance as she does.
2. Caring too much
Although women will put a caring nature as a much coveted attribute, right on the top of their list of must haves in their Mr. Right, too much of it, dampens their mood. Asking innumerable times throughout the day what she is doing, how she is, whether she had food, etc, will make your love story resemble a spy drama rather than a romantic one. Just go lax on the caring attitude, show care but don’t overdo it especially if the lady has given you hints that you are going overboard. Avoid these mistakes with the next woman you intend to date.
3. Talking about achievements
If you think talking about all your achievements and talents is going to impress her, then my friend, you are totally off the track. Women in fact, like to discover their man, get to know him slowly and get pleasantly surprised by how good he is. You will come off as a show-off, bragging and boasting loser if you tell her all the good points about yourself in one go and leave her to discover the bad aspects by herself.
4. Showing your protective side
So the chap was staring at the girl you are interested in or asking her for a dance even after she refused once. This doesn’t mean you are getting a chance to impress the girl by beating up the guy. Independent women of today know how to handle men very well and don’t need your act of bravado or a prince in a shining armor to come and save them. They in fact, get irritated with such actions and will tell you to back off and mind your own business.
5. Being a family man
This is a big misconception men have about women. They think females love a family man, which is probably true but only after they start having the urge to procreate. They want you to be a family man in the sense that you should be able enough to handle her, her family and your baby.
6. Playing the dating game
The dating game is for girls to play and men can’t become women in this space. Playing hard to get suits women, not men. What men do is, they either play hard to get by giving the girl mixed signals or being deliberately unavailable. Another mistake men also do is going too fast, saying “I love you” too soon, getting physical early on, etc. Women are turned off by these tactics. Just try to be friends first and act on it further if the girl drops hints.
