Do you ever feel like you’re a man repellent? It could be that you’re doing something to scare off potential love interests, which means you’re ruining your own chance at a healthy relationship.
At time, women unknowingly portray some awkward attitude that make the opposite sex label them as insecure, and in most cases men find it hard dealing with such character.
If you want guys to start lining up at your door, check to see if you’re guilty of any of the following:
1. Moving too fast
Don’t get too comfortable too quickly — slow it down. Building a relationship takes time. Date for a little while and when you’re ready, then commit. Once you’re exclusive, don’t worry about getting to the next step. Enjoy each part while it lasts so you can both enjoy a natural transition.
2. Being too available
You should have your own life, don’t just cling on to your boyfriend’s. It’s important to have time apart, and there should be other stuff going on in your life than just your relationship. So have a girl’s night, keep up with your hobbies, and don’t let your relationship affect your career.
3. Acting overly sensitive
You need to learn to take a joke. Guys are constantly poking fun at each other, so if you can’t laugh at yourself (and him), it’s going to be a problem. While he should be respectful and caring, if you’re getting bummed out over every little comment, it’s high time you found a sense of humor.
4. Being bossy
Men don’t want someone coming into their life telling them what to do — would you? Relationships require compromise, but that should be on equal terms, not all on yours.
5. Being needy
Don’t expect a guy to give up every priority he had before you. It’s not just about time, it’s also about the love and attention you require. Love him for who he is and not because he pays you endless compliments.
6. Acting like his mother
A man doesn’t need another woman to baby him. He gets enough of that from his mom. You don’t need to tell him what to do or how to do it — you’re partners and should treat each other as such.
7. Letting jealousy get the best of you
It’s insecurity, and it’s not attractive. Men want confident women that don’t need a man to make them feel better about themselves. Learn to trust your boyfriend or jealousy might just be the thing to drive him away.
8. Texting too much
He has other responsibilities in his life and doesn’t need his phone clutched in his hand 24/7. Not only is it annoying, it also makes him wonder why you don’t have anything else going on in your life.
