5 Stupid Things A Guy Can Do To Make A Woman Lose All Respect For Him
by
Some Lady

A woman’s respect is like virginity: Once you lose it, you’re basically never getting it back. However, while you were probably eager to get rid of your V-card, you definitely don’t want to lose her admiration.

Let me be the first to tell you that it’s not as easy as it seems. While it goes without saying that certain things pose a risk to losing a female’s respect -- being caught in a lie, cheating, etc. -- there are other less obvious threats that unfortunately happen to line up with a lot of guys’ innate behaviors and tendencies.

FIRING TOO FAST

It happens. In fact, it's an unfortunate but uncontrollable scenario that struck the men before you and the men before them. You finished too quickly during sex, and even though it’s pitch black in the room, you can still see her disappointment.

It’s enough to nearly destroy every shred of masculinity you have, but don’t let it.

There will be times when the climax occurs a tad quicker than you wanted it to, but the worst thing in the world you can do is start apologizing, or worse, feel sorry for yourself. The second you start making up embarrassing excuses for why it happened, showing shame or over explaining, she starts to lose respect.

GIVING UP TOO EASILY

In your mind, letting a lady “win” every battle is the right way to go. However, it’s the kiss of death in terms of your self-esteem.

When you constantly “yes” her, give up during every little altercation and cater to her every whim, she subconsciously realizes that she has total control.

No woman can respect a man who lets her get away with everything. Most of us women want to be called out when we're being unreasonable or shady.

SURRENDERING TO JEALOUSY

Jealousy is a funny thing. A total lack of it in any relationship raises a female’s suspicion that you’re not at all worried about losing her. However, too much of it makes you come off as pathetic.

That means you can’t get paranoid any time she’s hanging out with guy friends or strike up a fight with every guy who smiles in her direction at a bar. You might be tempted to lose it, but doing so shows self-doubt and makes you very unattractive.

LOATHING YOUR JOB... AND DOING NOTHING ABOUT IT

If you lack ambition, you might as well have erectile dysfunction. No woman is attracted to a guy who constantly complains about his career.

Obviously, not everyone is fortunate enough to have his or her dream job, but if you’re too lazy to make a change or at least aspire to do something different, you’re going to have a tough time convincing a lady you have any drive or integrity.

FLAKING OUT

There are so many uncertainties all around us: Your company could shut down tomorrow, and your best friend could move away next week.

Life is full of disappointments and the last thing this planet needs is men who make more of them. If you say you’re going to call, do it. If you promised to meet her friends on Friday, be there even if you’re freaked out about it.

Of course, things will come up occasionally that will shatter your plans. The more consistent you are, the clearer you can demonstrate that you’re dependable and a man of your word. The point is, a woman needs someone she can count on.

DRIVING A MINIVAN

This is unacceptable. It's a huge turnoff and will eventually lead women to want a man who hasn't given up on life.

This lady isn't wrong, you know. These are some basic areas where dudes start slipping as they get older.

Your boy Pecker has been telling you bros to work on your stroke game for a while now, but guys like LNCHBOX still think there's no reason for a man to last more than 3 minutes in bed. The message he pushes is destructive. His minivan message is also unhealthy.

Aside from that, she hits some obvious issues like not being a jealous, "yes man," who's flaky and complains all the time while driving a minivan. Generally speaking, she wants you to remember that women want men who act like men.

The biggest issue that she didn't touch on, that many people simply don't understand or recognize, is obligatory gift-giving, kindness, and the problem of expectations. Expectations, in my opinion, are one of the most destructive forces in relationships. We'll get into that some other time though.

In the meantime, remember that these hoes ain't loyal. But I'm here for you, and I'll be thinking about you over the long Labor Day weekend.
