20 Dating Rules Real Men Should Follow
Friday, 12 Feb 2010
Men, print this and hang it on a wall in your office, your car, somewhere.
- You’re A Man. Act Like One.
- Act like she isn’t that important and you’ll never lose her. It’s true. Women don’t want to be with a weenie. Sure, movies depict women wanting a man who “cares” but in reality, they will walk all over men they can whip.
- Stop calling her so much. First, why would you want to be on the phone with her all the time? Do you actually like hearing about the latest celebrity gossip? Let her call you, and when she does call, don’t always make yourself available to talk.
- Stop being so nice. If you become a big, loving teddy bear, she’ll rip your arms off and pull the stuffing out of you.
- You’re not that lucky, but she is. This is the attitude you need to have. If you kiss the ground she walks on, she’ll start running.
- Workout, man. Seriously. You don’t have to be some type of gym rat, but stay in shape. You never want to lose your woman to another guy only because she likes his body better than yours. Ease up on the full flavor draft and nachos a little bit and do some cardio and weight lifting.
- Be cocky. Even if you really don’t thing your the king cock, act like it around her. Don’t be afraid to give her a hard time about stuff too. You don’t have to be a verbally abusive asshole, but you shouldn’t just let her get away with doing stuff you don’t like.
- Don’t beg her. Women can be big time drama queens. You might get in a fight about something and she’ll quickly threaten to leave you. She’s just trying to get a reaction out of you. Don’t you dare start begging her to stay and start telling her you’re sorry. If she throws out the threat of leaving you, tell her to go for it. You’ll be just fine.
- Don’t think you need to impress her on a first date by paying for all kinds of stuff. Instead of spending all your loot on a girl you don’t even know if you’ll be with for long, take her to something free or inexpensive. Hit a local festival or the park. Believe it or not, there are women out there who just play men until they find someone they are truly interested in. I mean, if you could get ransom women to buy you dinner and drinks, wouldn’t you do it?
- Men are supposed to be proud. Don’t forget it. Don’t let her take your pride from you.
- Don’t treat her like a queen. She’s not royalty. She’s just another woman who fits some type of criteria you have to make you attracted to her. She’s a dime a dozen. If you treat her like a queen, she’ll treat you like a slave.
- Don’t fear or sweat rejection. There’s nothing wrong with approaching someone you find attractive or interesting. If you feel she’s not interested, don’t try to MAKE her interested. You’ll look pathetic and she’ll probably make fun of you to her friends.
- She’s human, just like you. Once you make sure she never feels empowered, you’ll be on the same level and that can mean a pretty darn good future for the two of you, together.
- Don’t take any shit from her. Don’t let her nag you, play the helpless role, be lazy, dominate you, control you, anything like that. Do not let her think she can control you.
- Find something to do. And, while you’re at it, make sure she has something to do. If all you have for entertainment is each other, someone (probably you) is going to start to feel smothered.
- Indifference is a quality you never hear women say they like, they do. She tries to make you jealous by telling you her ex-boyfriend has been texting her? You tell her you don’t give a shit and that’s his problem. Don’t let her make you care about stuff you really shouldn’t care about.
- Be confident. You can get other women, and other women want to get you. You don’t have to tell her that. You have to show her that.
- Don’t completely change who you are for a woman. If you like to play video games every now and then, play them. If you like to have a guys night out once or twice a month, do it. You like rock music, listen to it. You have no interest in romantic comedies, don’t watch them.
- Show yourself a little respect. You’re a man and you’re important. Act like it.
- Your aspirations are important. If you are trying to fulfill your dreams, keep going for it. Don’t let a woman take you away from what you’ve been working hard for all your life. Tell her she needs to respect your work and your hobbies. Encourage her to find passion about something so she doesn’t feel so neglected when you have to work. Everyone get rejected. If you get shot down, it’s not big deal. Hell, if you get shot down, it may have nothing to do with you at all.
