For The Men - How To Keep Your Girlfriend

 



Show Her You Love Her

Your girlfriend more than likely will not kick you to the curb for interrupting her during her favorite tv show, but, you do need to know a few things that might have her telling you that she “needs her space”.

A lot of you gentlemen assume that you know how your girlfriend is wired, but some things that have never crossed your mind might surprise you.

You can shower a woman with gifts, spend every day taking her to all of her favorite places, even wine and dine her and that still will never be enough for her.  She must hear the words, “I Love You” very often to even consider the relationship credible.

Of course, your girlfriend doesn’t negate the time you spend with her or even the wonderful gifts that you shower on her: but her mind just tells her that if she doesn’t hear those three words, that evidently you have changed the way you feel about her (even though you just told her yesterday).

 
What you must understand is that women constantly go over and over in their heads about how their relationship is evolving.  Men assume that if there are not any disagreements, that everything is fine and dandy.

Don’t Ignore Her – Listen

Let’s think about something.  If you started a conversation with your girlfriend and the subject matter was very important to you and you looked up and she was not paying attention to you at all, how would that make you feel?  Well, that is what happens to a lot of women when they are conversing with their significant others.  Most of the time, you don’t even realize that you are doing it.  The secret is to put all other thoughts and activities aside and take the time to really, truly listen to what she has to say.  It may seem trivial and unimportant to you, but it is VERY important to her.

Now, that is not to say that you should disallow yourself “your” time, it just simply means that if your girlfriend approaches you at a bad time you should simply ask her (nicely) if you could talk later when you can give her your full attention.  If she loves you, then she will have no problem allowing you to finish what you are doing and talk later.

Learn How To Use Honesty

We have learned from small children that we should always be honest, but we all know that sometimes a little “white lie” goes a long way.  That does not mean to not be tactful, it just means that staying neutral can make a relationship a lot more peaceful.

So, what does that mean?  Well, let’s say that your girlfriend asks you, “Does this color look good on me?” The correct answer would be, “You look good to me in anything that you wear”.  That might sound kind of silly right now, but try it and you will see how nicely your girlfriend responds.

If you and your girlfriend keep an open mind, allow each other an ample amount of “space” and “me time” and keep the drama to a controllable level, you should have the ultimate dream relationship
