Men: How to Be Attractive to Women

Make the Effort to Romance Her!

Barbara Lee Norris
Guys, are you having trouble attracting the "woman of your dreams?" Maybe you need to add some romance. Here are ten keywords, each starting with a letter from the word "ATTRACTIVE," that should help get some sparks flying!

Amazing: Go out of your way to show her that she is special. Instead of buying a bunch of generic flowers at the market, take her two of her favorite purple daisies. Take her for an evening picnic on the beach and dance under the moonlight. Make her your favorite dinner. Take her to see the poppies that bloom every year on the mountain. You get the drift. Put some meaning into what you do. It'll razzle-dazzle her!

Thoughtful: Courtesy goes a long way. Sometimes pick her up and drive her home. Walk her to the door. Compliment her and let her know how privileged you feel to be with her.

Tender: Women like men who show their feelings, but don't go overboard. If you cry more than she does, you might consider therapy! Empathy for others is a desirable trait, as is a willingness to lend a hand to someone in need.

Romantic: Make eye contact. Hold her hand. Get to know her. Remember that good things take time. Don't push yourself on her. Savor that first gentle kiss and leave her to dream about the next one.

Attractive: Women don't necessarily need stereotypically handsome men. Women do need men who go out of their way to look stylish and well kept. Don't forget to carry a breath mint or two.

Confident: Confidence strengthens relationships. Take care of yourself. Make your dreams come true. That will draw her to you!

Truthful: Create trust by showing her you are a man of your word. Call her when you say you are going to. Do not exaggerate about who you are or what you've accomplished. Be upfront if you are seeing other people.

Interesting: Engage in exhilarating conversation. Give her plenty of time to talk. She wants to know about you, but tell her in small doses. Let your good traits trickle into the conversation; leave her longing to know more.

Valiant: Every woman wants her "Man in Shining Armor!"

Entertaining: Sparks fly when men and women connect through a shared sense of humor. Lighten up and make her laugh! :)

    This is not a list of "rules." These are examples of ways to stand out, to be considerate, and to show manners--"food for thought." We all too often take each other for granted and then wonder why relationships don't work out. By the way, I am female and have been married over 30 years. Thanks for reading and taking the time to respond.

    This isn't advice at all, but a shopping list of what the author apparently wants in a man-slave. In all practicality none of these goals are attainable by the average guy, and trying to obey this laundry list will only exacerbate the readers futility in attracting women. It seems in order to procreate you have to memorize a laundry list of rules and regulations, just to break the ice. Then when it comes time for the relationship..a whole new set of rules, then its more rules for the marraige..especially the marraige. This article makes me not want to attract women at all. If I do attract a women, i've got an exponential growth of micromanaged regulation to look forward to.

    If you want to win in this life learn to ignore these pretentious guidelines and just simply and sincerely appreciate people.

    One more thing, if your following guidelines in your attempts at love, your faking it and you are shallow. The woman will eventually find you out, you'll have lost the ability to thi

    I picked a dandelion for a girl once, she crushed it and bitched that it wasn't a store bought rose.
