 What scares men and makes them run away? What words or gestures of a woman that he liked can make him step back in two steps and three movements and run away scared?

Maybe you also experienced the situation: you met a man, he showed clear signs that he was attracted to you, you went out on a date or two, after which he disappeared mysteriously, without giving any sign of life, without reply to messages - you swear it was a spirit that went to other realms as it disappeared!

What scares men:

 Early discussions about the future. Sure, it's okay, really good, to talk about your plans if you're talking about a profession and development - you'll look like a strong woman with a purpose in life, which attracts many men.

But if you start talking from the first date about how you dream of a house with a white fence, children with cheekbones, and dream weddings - it's almost as bad as confessing to them that you're secretly in disguise!

Many men have the impression if they are told from the beginning about things like weddings and children, that you have less and tie them with a chain and drag them to the altar…

Discussions about the "biological clock". No no no!! Under no circumstances start talking about how you are already 27 years old and how you should have a child up to 30 because that's what all doctors recommend!

Or how your girlfriends are all already married and getting ready to grow up with a baby… Or how your heart softens when you see a baby… Need more explanation?

A wounded heart and a history of failed relationships. If from the first date you tell him a lot about all your failed relationships, about how you never found your soul mate, about your wounded heart, about how much you need someone special near you - men will think you will become too addicted, stuck of them, the needy…

It is forbidden to talk about all the failures of love! To complain at the first meetings "why am I not doing well?" it's the equivalent of saying "the men in my life didn't want me"!

Talking about your ex-partner. Normally, you will end up talking about your ex-partners. But a short story should be just about everything. If you start talking about the former dreamer, talk about how good and cute he was, how much you loved each other - men will make the logical conclusion that you are still in love with your ex-partner and will leave you alone to continue dreaming about him.

So, in no case do you praise your ex-partner when you want to have a new partner! It is not a good idea to criticize him constantly, to speak ill of him - men will think that you are a vengeful person who does not tolerate separations well. And one more thing: you better avoid telling him how you set your ex on fire for all the things left in you, how you spread the rumor that he is gay or what else you did as revenge!

Exaggerated attempts to please him. On first dates, it is normal to show that you like him and that you are attracted to him! But what scares men: to try too hard, to try too hard, as if you were doing anything just to be nice.

He doesn't compliment her too much, she doesn't praise him, she doesn't laugh at any of his remarks, she doesn't always agree with him by approving him enthusiastically - she shows that you have different opinions and that you are not the kind of woman who agrees with anything!

Fast forward. You went out on three or four dates, he likes you, you like him, he invited you to another date - perfect! What scares men - is if you start talking and behaving as if you already have a stable relationship.

If you already call him "love", if you already plan weekends for two, if you already tell him to meet your friends and (seriously!) Your parents… Tighten her clothes around the room or wash her dishes… You got the idea - don't act like a stable girlfriend in the first phase, that of romantic dates, when you have to be seductive.

Declarations of love. If after the first dates you already have a tender "I love you" - in case you don't live a great passion and he is in love with your head, you could think about where you can meet the next man to go out with…

"Cat." What scares men? Women who cuddle and cuddle like a 7-year-old girl! Speaking of caresses, they use diminutives for any word: "food", "beer", "kitten", "sweetheart", "car", who wears adorable pink bows and ruffles, who gutters like a caressed cat… Intr- a word, women who behave like a cuddly child!

There has to be a balance: wearing a little pampering is okay, but being a real pampered girl is no longer… Men are attracted to such a cuddly woman when she is very sexy and they are looking for a playmate, not a life partner!

Tough women. What scares men? The opposite of the woman described above. As the saying goes, there must be a balance! In general, men admire and are attracted to a strong and independent woman, who manages on her own (apart from men who are looking for a housewife)… But to look too hard, masculine, cold, and always driving them cut the momentum and attraction…

Because men want to be the strongest in the couple and have someone to protect, they want a feminine, sensual woman who is both independent and delicate…

Beautiful women, around whom all men swarm. Although you may think that it is a dream to have perfect beauty and to always be the target of men's attention men who consider that they are not as attractive will be intimidated by the extremely beautiful woman that I think can have anyone.

Therefore, many men will think that there is no point in approaching a rapacious beauty, fearing failure!
