Do you bully men?

While some of us face major battles with shyness, others seem to glow naturally, with no effort required. These women have a strong personality and incredible decision-making ability, but at times, it seems to us that they end up having trouble maintaining lasting relationships.

But why does this happen? Men are created (yes, still today) to rule their lives. They are historically used to occupying very important positions and leadership positions in society. It is masculine nature to believe that only men are capable of providing for the needs of a home and even organizations, whether public or private. Since, in the modern world, women have come to occupy prominent positions and positions, men tend to be intimidated by very “advanced” female specimens.

But not everything is lost. There are ways to maintain our dignity and female achievements without, however, losing contact with our partners (or future partners).

very beautiful women

One of the categories that most intimidates men is that of very beautiful women. Of course, beauty is a desirable factor, but if a woman is physically very attractive, men tend to feel a little “stupid”. According to a study done by psychologists at Radbound University in the Netherlands in 2010 and published in the Experimental Journal of Social Psychology came to the conclusion that men, in fact, are intimidated by very beautiful women.

If this is your case, there’s not much you can do about it. Try to demonstrate that, despite being very “requested”, you are looking for a serious relationship that is not based only on physical characteristics. Be open to meeting new people when an interesting man seems intimidated around you.

Intelligence is an aphrodisiac, they say, but it can also get in the way when you meet someone new. Intelligent women represent a universe to be discovered by the male instinct. Most men want a partner with whom they can talk about a variety of topics, but if they feel that they don’t follow women’s reasoning, men tend to walk away. This happens because man fears that he will not be able to maintain a proper dialogue.

In order not to lose the cat just because he has less knowledge than you, try to save your more in-depth observations for another time. Don’t show off your mastery over very complex subjects; this attitude, in addition to alienating men, can even seem arrogant.

very independent women

Man, as has been said, is a naturally protective being. He wants to be able to meet his partner’s needs. A completely independent woman is a challenge for them, but after a while, they can become too difficult to deal with, due to their strong and defiant personality, which is usually not swayed by the opinions of others (including his own).

If this is your case, you may want to control your impulses. Often, when trying to demonstrate your independence, you may sound rude or even nervous. That’s the kind of attitude that keeps men away. To not let this behavior get in the way of your relationships, be less emphatic about your independence – sometimes it’s worth letting the cat help you change a tire, even if you know how to do it yourself.

Understand that modeling behaviors is not the same as overriding yourself. In any case, don’t stop being who you are just to attract men. The ideal guy is the one who accepts you and loves you the way he knew you.
