Some men just seem to have it, don’t they?
They wander up to a woman they’ve never met and before you know it, they’ve exchanged numbers and have a date lined up.
It’s not just the initial dating stages they seem good at, it’s all through the relationship too. Some men just seem to have it all and know how to behave around women, and are more successful as a result.
If you’re not one of these people, fear not! Learning how to be better with women is straightforward.
You can learn this stuff just like you can learn anything else! But, before we go on to look at how to be better with women, we need to see what being good with women actually looks like.
What does it mean to be good with women?
When we describe men as ‘good with women’ we usually mean that they have certain characteristics that women are attracted to, and by this, we’re not talking about looks. Men who are good with women tend to have higher self-confidence and are natural people-readers. In other words, they know how to read women, know what they want, and they’re confident at delivering it.
Not all women want the same thing. Some want to be wined and dined, some want fun and adventure, while others enjoy a simple life of cozy nights with a glass of wine, a film, and a box of chocolates.
Being good with women simply means working out what the woman wants and giving it to her. Does she like people who play hard to get? What does she think of loud men? Does she like a certain type of conversation?
To start being better with women, you need to first know what the woman wants, and, unfortunately, there aren’t really any generalisations that you can use to ensure success.
What do women want?
Even though we’ve just said you can’t really generalise when it comes to women, there are certain characteristics that all women want. These include respect, emotional safety and presence. Of course, a woman wans to be physically attracted to you, however, this won’t be her ‘choice’ and will be based on how you conduct yourself.
Lets get into the necessary characteristics that will help you be better with women;
1. Respect
Respect comes down to a few things. Listening to them, allowing them to speak, validating their feelings, politeness, kindness, sincerity, and respecting personal boundaries are all good places to start.
2. Emotional safety
In years gone by, men would protect their women from physical harm. Nowadays, things have changed slightly. Men no longer have to be the hard guy who doesn’t show emotion.
More and more women want their men to have the intelligence and emotional capacity so that they feel safe emotionally themselves.
By this we mean, they feel comfortable with their own emotions without judgment. The more a man can connect to his own emotions and feelings, the more he will acknowledge and connect with hers.
Men often feel they’re in a double-bind when it comes to showing emotions but, when both parties express emotions, they can connect fully to one another.
In a recent survey, ninety-five percent of women confirmed that they prefer a man who is more open with this emotions. A whopping ninety-seven percent said that a man crying is strong, natural and healthy.
3. Presence
Many women will say they love it when men really listen. However, it’s not as simple as sitting there silently nodding.
Women want men who listen to them beyond what they say and the words that they use. Often, men go into fix-it mode and try to resolve situations with solutions.
Women, though, often prefer to simply have their feelings validated and aren’t looking for a resolution. Rather, they just want to get it off their chest and be heard.
The simple difference between men and women is that a lady will chat without intention, whereas guys feel like they need to speak only when there’s something important to be spoken about.

When you approach a women, as long as you’re confident and able to hold a conversation, you shouldn’t have any issues.
Here are some things to try to get better at initiating an interaction with ladies;

Women don’t want men to launch into the ‘have you got a boyfriend?’ or ‘can I get your number?’ questions when you’ve only just caught eyes.
Don’t use a cheesy chat-up line like ‘do you come here often?’ either, unless you think it will go down well. Instead, think of a way you can start to develop a connection.
2. Don’t ask for her number, give her yours
It will show great confidence and respect if, instead of saying ‘can I have your number?’, you say ‘here’s my number’

3. Glance, don’t stare
If you’ve noticed a woman from across the room, don’t stare, even if she happens to be the most beautiful woman you’ve ever seen.
Instead, you should glance occasionally and smile gently, then wait a while before looking over again. If she’s interested in you, you’ll notice her trying to do the same. And if she’s not, you won’t come across as creepy either. Most females like attention, even the ones who are taken!
