A Man's Guide to Five Reasons Why She Shot You Down

Karl Withakay
When a lady rejects you, it turns you upside down. Especially if you didn't see it coming. "What did I do wrong??" You never get a second chance to make a first impression. Read on to make your first impression a good one.

You Came On Way Too Strong

Easy big guy. It's a big turnoff for most women when you try too hard for a date. She doesn't want to be overwhelmed regardless how happy you are to finally have a date or happy you are to be dating HER. Women love all that mushy stuff and enthusiastic behavior but you need to space it out a bit. It's better if she sees and hears that stuff after you two have been seeing each other for a bit.

The Lesson To Be Learned....

Women love to be chased. Hold off on the heavy wooing right away. Start out with some restraint and let it build up to telling her that you're crazy about her.

She Likes You But Not Like That

Yeah, I know. It hurts me just writing those seven words above. We've all been there. Just because your fun and cute doesn't mean you're the type of guy she wants as a boyfriend. Now she might have touched your arm a bit and learned against you at the movies but don't mistake friendly affection for something more.

The Lesson To Be Learned.....

You're a sweet guy. She may not have the heart to tell you that there's no spark. It's best to cut your losses. You don't want someone who isn't into you right. Look at it as a blessing that it ended before real feelings developed.

You Were Arrogant

Don't be messing with your smart phone and checking your schedule while you're asking her out. You didn't even ask her what day and time worked best for her. You may have used some time telling her all about your exciting life while you would have been better off learning a bit about her.

The Lesson To Be Learned......

Dude, you are not God's gift to women. I don't care how good looking or how successful you are. She's likely to dig your confidence but leave your "it's all about ME" ego at home. The truth is, you're not all that.

You Are Lacking In Confidence

She might really dig you but she doesn't want to be your babysitter, your coach, or your mother. Man up and keep your head up.

The Lesson To Be Learned......

It is possible for you to be polite and strong and be confident at the same time. She wants a guy who is secure, confident, charismatic, and deserving of her time.

You Gave The Impression Of Being A Slacker

Despite what you think, it's not because you're unemployed. Over ten percent of the USA is unemployed. You have no plan or no goals.

She doesn't expect you to be a CEO of a fortune five hundred company but at least show her that you trying to be all that you can be. Don't be so content on sleeping until noon on a Tuesday and doing nothing.

The Lesson To Be Learned......

A woman is going to wonder what you're going to bring to the mix. You need to clean up and show her that you are a worthy partner who has specific goals in life.

Hopefully, you're a bit wiser now. If you avoid these five things, it's less likely that you'll be shot down the next time you ask a woman out. Good luck.
