How many of you women get frustrated with the pool of guys out there....and keeping the one you want is even harder, right? So here's the rundown of how to keep THE ONE!

Difficulty: Moderately Challenging
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Patience
  • Cookbook
  • Confidence
  • Sexual Variety
  1. Step 1

    Have confidence! Nothing is a bigger turnoff to a man than a woman who doesn't believe in herself. But don't be too cocky....that can backfire too.

  2. Step 2

    Keep his belly full. Your mom was right when she told you that the way to a man's heart is through his stomach. Keep a cookbook handy and mix it up. Make sure you remember his favorite dishes, and take the cues he gives you when you do try something new. If he eats seconds, it usually means he loves it, if he can't hardly get it down, DONT EVER MAKE it again!

  3. Step 3

    Keep him happy in the bedroom. Hopefully, he will do the same for you, but remember that men think differently than we do, in many ways. He has an almost primal need for being pleased and we would rather just be with him intimately, whether or not we get ours or not. Men like variety, and going beyond the bedroom and spontaneity are high on their list.

  4. Step 4

    Let him have time with his friends. We all know we need our alone time or time out with the girls, so we should let him have his guys night out, too. And NO THIRD DEGREE. If we want trust to be a priority in the relationship we have to make an effort too!

  5. Step 5

    Be patient! You will not always see eye-to-eye with your guy, but usually you can work things out with a little patience. When you cross the line in an argument, apologize. If you feel he crossed the line, explain to him why what he said was hurtful and accept his apology. Then never bring it up again. It's in the past and grudges don't belong in a healthy relationship.

Tips & Warnings
  • Men love to be pampered (don't let them tell you otherwise) Back rubs, massages, even manicures are something they appreciate (as long as it's you doing it). So give them an occasional treat and let them know you care!
  • This advice is intended to help you please your man. Do not let yourself be taken advantage of however. If your man appreciates you, you will be given the things that make you happy as well (i.e. roses, doing dishes, running you a bath, diamonds, a foot rub, special dinner, etc)
