#Let's Talk! [iDey#27]
WHAT DO MEN really WANT [Part 1]:-
Men
and women think differently about romance. Men are goal-oriented. They measure
their success by their achievement. Subconsciously, they tend to divide their
relationship into two phases - courtship and 'Keepership'.
The aim of
courtship is to woo the woman and win her affection. During the courtship, he
is the hunter while she is the hunted. During the hunt, he can be wonderfully
charming, thoughtful and sensitive. He attends to her every whim and fancy. He
is sensitive to her feelings and needs. He pays great attention to every
detail. He will go to great length to please her. If necessary, he will climb
the highest mountain; swim the widest river, and bungee jump, just for her. He
may send flowers or a loving note after a romantic date. But once her heart is
captured, the courtship is over. When the hunt is over, so is romance. When he
senses the woman cares for him, he changes. His victory is assured. Having
captured her heart, she is like a trophy for keeps.
Women tend to be
different. They want romance to continue; they are disappointed when it ceases.
Women often feel shortchanged by men when romantic behavior fades. Women
complain that men take them for granted. For most men, romance is a means to an
end; to many women, romance is an end in itself. Most women don't feel discomfort
with romance; they love it. Guess who read romantic novels - the women of
course! Men, on the other hand, are anxious to get over with the pursuit so
that they can stop worrying, relax and enjoy the rewards of victory. While women
tend to equate pursuit with love, men often equate not having to pursue with
love. Having possessed her love, he can stop pursuing her, and before marriage, he can often declare his undying love with the magic words, "I love you."
But after marriage, men hardly utter those words. The excuse they give is that
they have not changed their mind since they declared their undying love at the
altar; and if he ever changes his mind, he would tell her. They feel they don't
have to remind her that 'I love you' everyday. What a dilemma for the women! Is
there any hope for romance? Of course there is!
A
committed relationship need not be without romance and passion. If a woman
wants her man to be romantic, here are some things she can do:
1. Do
not hassle him to buy you presents, bring you flowers or accompany you for
shopping. Men do not like to be told what to do. If you keep nagging him, you
will probably succeed in making him feel pressured and guilty, but you are not
going to get him to feel more romantic. Even if he dutifully gives in and
brings home a dozen roses from the florist, it will probably be mere
compliance. Romance has to come from the heart, not out of obligation. The
smart woman knows that compliance is an enemy of romance. Let him feel it is
his ideas, not yours.
2. Simply
allow him to enjoy being loved. Interpret his diminished need to be romantic as
a compliment, as a hallmark of his trust in you. He is assured of your love.
You are safely in his fold. Therefore he does not feel the need to woo you and
to remind you of his love for you.
3. Understand the
psychology of men. Do the unexpected. Reward him occasionally. Keep him in
suspense. To be predictable is to be boring. Be unpredictable. Men enjoy the
chase. Put him in a competition so that he will not take you for granted. Be
vague. The uncertainty stimulates him, motives him to re-embark on the romantic
chase; it drives him wild.
4. Remember, for
men, romance is a goal-oriented behavior, a time when they are uncertain of a
woman's feeling towards them. The key word is uncertainty. When men are
uncertain, they become more romantic.
