Women: Can Men Ever Make Them Happy?

You have to pity men a little. To them, it seems like they can never figure out women, despite their best tries and intentions. This is because women just aren't as straight-forward and consistent as men are in their behavior--that's what makes us alluring, too! But here's a little straight-from-the-hip advice for men about women.


Men often wonder the age old question: Just how do you keep a woman happy? Here is some truly relevant advice on relationships for men that you can start using today.


Be yourself. Women aren't at all impressed with braggarts that drone on and on about how they made the winning catch in their high school football championship twenty years ago, and they don't want to hear about how many horsepower your sports car has either. They have absolutely no interest in hearing about the time you decked that other guy at the bar. Do you ever wonder why you often see a so-so looking guy with a beautiful woman? He has her because he has self-confidence and doesn't feel the need to endlessly brag about his past exploits. He takes the time to listen to her, and doesn't try to monopolize every conversation by bragging out his greatness. Listen, guys: when you have to brag a little too much, you're just not very believable and that's a big turn off.

Women appreciate when you do little things for them. Offer to take her car for an oil change or pick up her favorite candy bar when you're at the grocery store. You don't always need to go all out and break your bank account wining and dining.Over the course of a long relationship, the little things mean far more to women than "grand gestures" that are few and far between.

Do you want to really turn off your woman? Well, then make sure you take every opportunity to ogle every woman that you see. Women really don't like feeling like they need to compete with every other woman on the street just to capture your attention. When you do this, she is going to feel that you are comparing her to the other ladies, and she is coming out on the short end of the stick. Sure, men are going to look at other women--that's a natural fact. But at least be discrete when you are with your lady; don't swivel your head around like an owl.

Make her laugh. Nothing is sexier to a woman than a man who can make her laugh. Women will take a man who make her smile over the humorless-hunk type every time. Women are in relationships for the long haul. They can imagine themselves still laughing at your jokes in forty years, but when glamor-boy's looks start to fade (and they will), women can't see themselves saddled with someone who they don't find amusing.

Just because you've landed the girl, doesn't mean that you can let yourself go to seed. Women like men who bathe regularly, and maybe even put on a little cologne. Most women hate going in for a kiss only to have their face feel like it was scratched with sandpaper, so do shave. Oh, and just so you know, women like when you make an attempt to look stylish, too. If you have the same look you did in junior high, it's time for a change. She'll appreciate all your efforts in the grooming department.

Family and friends are very important to women. If you can't impress her friends and family, your relationship is headed for trouble. She needs to know that her friends and family approve of your relationship with her, so make an effort to get along with her parents, and act pleasant towards her friends, even if they are on the annoying side.

Be open to trying some new things to keep your relationship fresh. Don't automatically say "No!" every time she wants to try something like salsa dancing. When you are at the beginning of a relationship, everything is wonderful and new. If you keep the same old routine, the relationship can begin to get stale. Surprise her once in a while and treat her to a new, fun activity. Shake it up occasionally, and your relationship will reap the benefits of it.
