Cash Him And Keep Him by Nobody: 3:54pm On Aug 14, 2006 |
![]() man isn't ATTRACTED to a woman, all of her attempts to share a connection, convince him to like her, and to feel and share love, will BACKFIRE. In other words, they not only DON'T WORK, they can actually make things WORSE. The very things that a woman does to try to make a man LIKE HER, make him NOT like her. They make him run. Even though a woman might have nothing but the most loving and positive emotional intentions in the long run, these actually cause the woman feeling them to do things that make the man pull away, and sometimes for good. It sucks, doesn't it? Why does it have to be so hard, right? But, it's a strangely common dynamic that most men and women really aren't aware of and don't understand, even though they're playing it out. Hopefully, by explaining the process of how this happens to you, I'll help you avoid this painful and frustrating situation in your own future, And maybe you can start to understand what's going on a little better, if you think about what it's like when a man you're NOT attracted to desperately wants your attention, affection and your time. Have you ever had a guy pursue you? You know, when a guy asks for your number and maybe you feel awkward turning him down, so you relent. And then he calls, As he's trying to get your attention, approval and affection, all of his pleading and effort just seems to bug you more and make you want to get away. Even if all he's doing is telling you great things about yourself and how he feels about you. I'm always fascinated by the idea that we humans don't always understand the message that we're communicating to others, So often we think that because we WANT to communicate a message, that others are going to NATURALLY understand what we're trying to say. Have you ever seen a woman who dresses over- the-top sexy/cheap and wears way too much make-up? Have you ever thought to yourself, "I don't think that her appearance is communicating the message to men that she thinks it is", ? Yeah, I have too. Well, here's the deal: If you do something to "let a man know how you feel" but he isn't open to the situation at that time, or he's not in the right place/right time to hear it, or most importantly - he isn't ATTRACTED to you, then it's going to backfire. Yep, It's actually going to trigger a feeling of discomfort and disinterest in the man. And this is just as powerful as the physical and emotional response of ATTRACTION. Once a man feels it, he'll start behaving differently. In short, he'll back off, withdraw, or even disappear. So what causes this? And why would a man react this way towards a woman who was trying to be nice, a woman who was giving him her time, compliments, attention, or telling him how she feels affection for him? Because if you think about it from HIS perspective, you'll realize that the moment you do something to "confess", you've created a TURNING POINT in the relationship. Up until that point, you were harmless. I mean, men know when they are getting some "special attention" from a woman and can sense it. But now that you've started pursuing him and talking about how you feel, you've passively posed several questions that can create NEGATIVE TENSION: "How do you feel about me?" And, "Do you want to be with me?" You've triggered an emotion that can actually REPEL a man and make him even more detached from his emotions. Here's the thing, You can't "make a man like you" or change how he feels about you by doing nice things for him. Doing "nice" things for a man who isn't attracted to you, HURTS you. It backfires. Worse, it creates the feeling that you're trying to bribe him because you don't think he would just like you for you. Men are the worst at this, by the way. They make this mistake over and over again in life, because they're doing what MAKES SENSE to them. They're doing it because they don't have an understanding of ATTRACTION. If you have any guy friends, brothers, etc. in your life who are clueless when it comes to women, then you know EXACTLY what I'm talking about. When they're really "into" a woman and they want things to go somewhere or progress, and maybe the woman is not feeling it for him so much, what does he do? Usually a lot of things that communicate, "Hey, I think you're way more valuable, important and higher status than I am, Maybe one day if I give you enough compliments and gifts you'll start to like me." But let me clarify here so you really get it, If you have a FRIEND (man or woman) and you like them, and you want to make them like you more, then when you do some nice things for them they will probably actually like and appreciate you more. As a friend. On the other hand, If you have a man that you "like" in a romantic way, and he doesn't "feel it" for you, and you do something nice for him, because you want HIM to like you more, it will BACKFIRE, and he will not only NOT like you more, but he will most likely distance himself from you. Women think that they need to communicate verbally when they like a man, as if that's part of the necessary process of getting a guy. In their minds, it goes like this: Like him ->Tell him you like him ->He likes you. If you follow this pattern with men who aren't already FEELING much ATTRACTION or CONNECTION with you, then it's probably going to BACKFIRE. If he's not into you, then it goes like THIS: He thinks of you as a friend ->You tell him you like him ->He gets that "yikes" feeling and withdraws, THE ANSWER There are really TWO answers to this problem. The first answer is what to do if you're in a situation where you like a particular guy, but you don't know if he likes you back. DON'T GET HEAVY WITH HIM. Don't buy him a big gift, do something nice to show him how much you think about him, or write him a love letter, Don't send him a note to his work that says, "From your secret admirer". Don't call him several times, without hearing from him. And DON'T CONFESS YOUR LOVE for him. If you want to know how he feels about you, do something to ATTRACT HIM and see how he reacts instead of telling him you love him and hearing the crickets chirp as you wait for his response. As a rule of thumb, don't get heavier than HIM. Use SIGNALS from him to find out how he feels, and if you don't know how to read and create those signals, then LEARN. Asking a man if he's interested in you in a romantic way, or if you are "his type", will actually DESTROY the chances that his attraction and interest in you will grow. This may sound odd at first, but if you think about what the man is perceiving (that you NEED this romantic relationship) you understand that what seems like a logical question to you translates to "neediness" or "clinginess" to him. In my ebook I share with you the top list of things that many woman do that KILL attraction instantly. These are the UNIVERSAL things that are sure to change they way a man sees and perceive you (and not for the better). When you read these universal "attraction killers", like most women, you're going to recognize some of the behaviors and quickly realize different ways you've been sabotaging your own relationships before they even get started. http://www.CatchHimAndKeepHim.com/e/10072/eBook (c) Christian Carter--- Copyright registered. ![]() |

The Red Rose whispers of passion, And the White Rose breathes of love; O, the Red Rose is a falcon, And the White Rose is a dove. But I send you a cream-white rosebud with a flush on its petal tips; For the love that is purest and sweetest has a kiss of desire on the lips. |
