Dating Advice: 4 Surprising Traits Women Will Love You For!

Dating can be confusing for men. Should you focus on showing
you’re a nice guy or aim to come across as and macho and strong?
Dating guides might encourage you to impress her with grand
romantic gestures and unbounded admiration, but we know what
women really want when dating, and it might surprise you! Here
are the top four surprising traits which impress women when
dating.
1. No grand gestures (just the smaller ones will do)
When we think of romance it can often conjure up images of
grand gestures which will sweep a woman off her feet. While a
giant bouquet of roses or an unexpected weekend in Paris are not
to be sniffed at, you cannot buy a woman’s affection - it is the
smaller gestures which will lead to approval.
Holding a door open for the person you are dating (in the right
circumstances) shows good manners without being over the top.
Try to emphasise your respect without making too much of a fuss
– she will notice the little things and you will be able to keep
up this behaviour over time (while too many mini-breaks could
leave you bankrupt!)
2. An element of challenge
A lot of very good men fall down unnecessarily here with
dating. Women love to be looked after to some extent, but don’t
really need to have their every whim catered to by a man who
quite obviously adores them from day one.
While treating a woman well is one thing, being an absolute
pushover is never all that attractive, and this is the reason
many ‘nice guys’ aren’t the ones who are the luckiest when it
comes to dating. There is an element of ‘the thrill of the
chase’ for both sexes, so bear this in mind and try not to put
the woman you are dating on a pedestal straight away – let her
impress you, too!
3. A stubborn streak
The woman you are dating might give the impression she wants
you to change, but let her wrap you around her little finger and
you could discover, changes made, that she’s lost interest after
all. This is because most women, deep down, are a lot happier
knowing their partner is a strong man who can speak up for
himself.
If she does ask you to change, be very wary of doing it. That
is, unless it’s a change you wanted to make anyway (like
stopping smoking! That’s always a good idea). Try to stay true
to yourself, while looking after her needs where you can, and
she’ll respect you more for it.
4. Being unavailable
This does not equate to not calling back – that’s just rude!
But a certain amount of unavailability can make for a longer
lasting relationship. She might think she wants you to be around
all the time but a little time apart can do wonders to keep the
spark going between you.
If you aim to keep up your usual activities, such as meeting
your friends and family or spending time on your hobbies, this
should give enough down-time to your relationship to keep it
burning hot when you’re together.
