7 things men foolishly do that make them lose strong women

Guys, don’t make these common mistakes, don’t lose the woman of your dreams!

People are natural-born screw-ups. That much is certain. None of us are perfect and life will always have to be composed of us learning on the job. None of us have all the answers from the start, and there is no handbook on how to live life. We will all make our mistakes whether it be with our studies, our careers, or our relationships. There is no sure-fire way for us to avoid making mistakes. It’s as if it’s hardwired into our DNA for us to always be in a perpetual state of wrong. But that’s okay. That’s part of growth. We live and we learn in life and in love. In relationships, you won’t always find success.  You’ll fall in love with the wrong people; you’ll fall in love at the wrong times;

and in some cases, you’ll find the right person at the right time, but you won’t be treating her the right way. For the first two cases, it can be difficult to help you out. But for the latter case, maybe you don’t have to be such a big screw-up in that aspect. Picture this: you’re in a loving and stable relationship with a woman who exhibits a strong personality. She is goal-oriented and driven. She has dreams and aspirations; and she is uncompromising in her pursuits. You love that about her and you want to do everything in your power to keep her. How do you do that? Make sure you avoid being a disrespectful and belittling misogynistic idiot who does stupid things. Here are 7 things men foolishly do that make them lose strong women:

1. You don’t make an effort to advance in the relationship.

Strong women are attracted to strong men. Don’t be shy about it. Make the first move and introduce yourself to her in a confident manner. If you’re already in a relationship together, be forward about your expectations for each other. If the time is right, let her know that you’re willing to move to the next levels in your relationship. Always take the initiative, and she’ll appreciate that. She doesn’t want a man who cowers under the pressure or the fear of rejection.

2. You try playing hard to get.

She’s a strong and independent woman, remember? She doesn’t need you. She’s perfectly fine of making her way through the world without your help. If you act like you’re not interested, it really won’t bother her. Stop playing hard to get and start going after what you want: her love. She won’t even think twice about moving on from you when you show disinterest in her.

3. You try to suppress your emotions as much as you can.

A strong lady always likes a man who isn’t afraid of showing his emotions. Strong women like it when men wear their hearts on their sleeves. It shows that they’re not insecure about who they are and that they are truly in touch with their own personalities. Sensitive men are also natural draws for strong women because they tend to be more empathetic and supportive.

4. You baby her a little too much and not allow her to grow as an individual.

She craves for challenges in her life because she knows that she needs to go through them in order to grow and develop as a person. If you’re constantly trying to take care of her to the point where she’s no longer mentally stimulated, then that’s a turn off for her. Let her solve her problems on her own, and step in only when she asks you to. She’s a smart and rational woman who can find her way out of a tangle whenever she wants.
