To all of the men here: do you agree?
It can be difficult to break down the macho walls of mystery and stoicism in a man. They tend to put up heavy shields to safeguard their hearts from any potential pain and heartbreak. However, when the right girl comes along, things start to break down very quickly. A man starts letting his guard down and allows himself to be more vulnerable. He sees it as a sign of weakness but it’s fine with him so as long as you’re a part of his life.
Because in a way, you are a source of his strength too. Your combined feelings for each other is enough to keep him strong and be confident about his manhood. You manage to make him feel weak and strong at the same time, but he likes that feeling of vulnerability.
Ladies, there are plenty ways to make your man weak in the knees. However, simple I love you’s won’t be enough most of the time. A lot of times, gestures can mean a whole lot more than words. You can express your love for him in various ways. The right touching expression of your love performed at proper moments can have him eating out of the palm of your hand. Here are 9 things girls do that have profound effects on men.
1. You wear that dress that he loves on you
If he compliments you on particular clothes that you wear on certain days, take a mental note of this. The next time you happen to be wearing a dress he likes, say Hey, I’m wearing that dress that you like. It shows that you pay attention to him and that you always want to look good in his eyes. It makes him feel good that you still put effort into making him fall in love with you by dressing up for him.
2. You prepare his favorite meal for him
A strong man will always want to take care of his girl. He will want to hold her in his arms and pamper her for the rest of her life. However, a man likes to feel pampered every once in a while too. Show your gratitude every so often by cooking him his favorite steak when he gets home from work. Maybe perhaps make some waffles with bacon and eggs for him to wake up to in the morning. These little gestures make him happy and reassure him of your love for him.
3. You express your gratitude for the things he does for you
Sometimes a simple thank you can have a more profound effect on him than an I love you can. An expression of gratitude shows that you appreciate his presence in your life. It gives him a self of purpose and meaning in your relationship. Also, it helps relieve him of any fears of worthlessness whenever he’s with you. Give him a gold star every now and then to show him appreciation for his good work.
4. You ask for his help and advice every now and then
Relationships are just as much intellectual as they are emotional. When you ask for his advice, it tells him that you value his perspective and his intellectual take on things. It shows that you appreciate having an extra mind around to help guide you through life. Even when you don’t really need his advice, flatter him and ask him for his opinion every so often.
5. You give him your undivided attention
Time is the most valuable resource that anyone could ever give. When you give him your undivided time and attention, it makes him feel special. He’ll deeply appreciate any time you give him your full attention. He’ll feel prioritized and he’ll know that he’s an important part of your life.
6. You give him a big Koala Bear hug once in a while
Physical intimacy can always go a long way, but it doesn’t always have to be sexual. Sometimes, something as innocent as a hug when he comes home from a long day of work can help relieve him of total stress. The warmth of your embrace can be enough to brighten his day.
7. You encourage him to take time for himself
If you encourage him to be alone with his thoughts or his hobbies every once in a while, then that means you’re confident enough to trust him to make the most of his time. This tells him that you also value his personal needs for solitude and space.
8. You start living a healthier lifestyle
If you make an effort to start taking care of yourself by getting fitter and healthier, he’ll take notice. Even if you’re just doing it for yourself, let him know that you’re also doing it for him. You want him to know that you’re serious about the future of your relationship and you want to be healthy enough to grow old together.
9. You let him use you as a Venting machine
Sometimes, all a man needs is a punching bag, whether literally or metaphorically. If you allow him to let you serve as a metaphorical punching bag, he’ll greatly appreciate it. If he’s frustrated with work or about his stupid boss, then let him complain to you about it. I know, it’s a pain to hear all that nagging, but he’ll definitely appreciate you for it afterward.
Men, Talk to me
Men do you agree? Let me know in the comments below!
U are correct
Other than using the punching bag metaphor, I completely agree. Fortunately for me, I am blessed enough to have a wife who already does all of these things
I don’t mind being sympathetic ear/shoulder but nope to punching bag/whipping post. I was with someone that when he got riled by his ex-wife, he verbally and emotionally abused me. Never again
We❤️it when we both cook together, we are so affectionate and our love magnifys 10 fold?️♾️??♾️?️We get dressed for each other and give and receive greatertude together… We did the hard work to get to this❤️
I’ve done most of those with the guy I’m dating and it has no affect! So I wouldn’t agree , if anything it’s pushed him away!
