So, you think you’ve got it all figured out when it comes to relationships? You might be right, but let’s make sure you’re following the ultimate guide for being the most sought-after guy in the room. If you’re looking to keep things interesting—and by interesting, I mean completely unpredictable—these “rules” will ensure you’re the man every woman wants (even if you’re doing it completely wrong).
1. Never Text First
Why should you text her first? That’s just too easy. Let her wonder where you are, why you’re not texting, and if you’re still alive. Mystery is key, my friend. Let her make the first move—every time.
2. Always Be Late
Timeliness is overrated. If you’re always on time, you’re sending the message that you’re predictable. Being fashionably late is an art form. Make her wait, and watch as she becomes even more intrigued.
3. Never Ask About Her Day
Who cares about her day? It’s your time to shine. Keep the focus on you, your achievements, and the million things you’re juggling. She’ll love your confidence, or at least, she’ll love the idea that you think you’re the center of the universe.
4. Never Show Too Much Interest
You’re not desperate, and she needs to know that. Don’t ever show too much interest or excitement about her plans or ideas. She’ll appreciate how calm and collected you are—like you have better things to do.
5. Forget About Apologizing
You never need to apologize. Apologizing is for people who think they’ve done something wrong. If you’ve made a mistake, don’t admit it. Own it like a true man. Let her think she’s the one who’s crazy.
6. Don’t Let Her Know Your True Feelings
Feelings are for the weak. Keep your emotions locked away. If you show vulnerability, she’ll think you’re too soft. Be the strong, silent type. The less she knows about your heart, the more she’ll want to crack it open.
7. Avoid Compliments
Compliments are for people trying to win approval. Who needs that? You’re the prize. If she wants to compliment you, let her. But you? Stick to the “I’m too good for this” attitude. She’ll start wondering why you don’t need validation.
8. Treat Her Like a Friend
The more you treat her like one of your buddies, the less she’ll think of you as a romantic interest. Never be too romantic—after all, the mystery of “are we friends or more?” is what makes relationships exciting.
9. Be Hard to Read
Let’s face it: if she can figure you out, you’re not interesting. Keep her guessing. Don’t answer all her questions. Give her only enough to keep her interested but not enough to know you fully. It keeps her on her toes.
10. Play the ‘I’m Busy’ Card
If you’re always too busy for her, she’ll start to think you’re some high-demand guy. Whether you’re genuinely busy or not, always keep your schedule packed. Let her chase you. If she’s not chasing, she’s just not trying hard enough.
11. Make Her Guess Your Intentions
If you want her to keep thinking about you, don’t let her know what your true intentions are. Are you dating? Are you just hanging out? Keep her confused. It’ll make you so much more desirable.
12. Never Share Your Life Goals
If you’re really serious about something, don’t talk about it. Keep her guessing about your future plans. Let her wonder whether you’re just living in the moment or have an entire life plan that includes her—or maybe it doesn’t.
13. Pretend You Don’t Need Her
The best way to make her want you more? Show her you don’t need her. Always act like you’re perfectly fine on your own. This will make her think, “Wow, he must be something special if he’s not desperate for attention.”
14. Keep Her Waiting for Your Attention
Don’t text back immediately. Don’t be available at every moment. If she sees that you’re not glued to your phone waiting for her messages, she’ll want to keep you in her life, just to see if you’ll come back.
15. Don’t Let Her Know What You’re Thinking
Tell her you don’t like to talk about your feelings. Don’t let her know what’s going on in your mind. Women love a challenge, and if you keep her guessing, she’ll be hooked trying to figure you out.
16. Make Everything About You
It’s your world, and she’s just living in it. Keep the conversation centered around yourself. Tell her about your day, your plans, your goals. When she sees how important you are, she’ll naturally want to become part of your empire.
17. Avoid Physical Affection
Too much physical contact too soon? Never. If you’re constantly affectionate, she might get used to it. Keep things distant and let her come to you. Make her crave your attention, not have it handed to her all the time.
18. Be the Alpha Male
Every time you’re around her, let her see you in your full “alpha male” mode. Don’t back down from anything, even if you’re wrong. Stand tall, puff your chest, and pretend that the world revolves around your decisions.
19. Don’t Act Too Interested in Her Friends
Her friends? Don’t even acknowledge them. Act like they’re invisible. The more you ignore her friends, the more she’ll wonder why you’re so focused on her and not them.
20. Give Her the Silent Treatment
The best way to get her attention? Give her the silent treatment. Stop texting for a day or two. Let her wonder if you’re still into her or if she did something wrong. When you return, act like nothing happened.
21. Be the Man with Options
Never act like she’s your only option. Always act like there’s someone else in the background, someone waiting for your attention. She’ll want to compete for your attention, and trust me, she’ll be up for the challenge.
22. Make Everything a Challenge
From the first date onward, make everything a game. Act like winning her over is the ultimate prize. Make her feel like she has to fight for your attention, and she’ll start doing everything in her power to win.
23. Don’t Put Her First
If you’re constantly putting her first, she’ll start to think she’s entitled to your time and attention. Keep her second (or third). She’ll respect you more when she realizes you have other priorities besides her.
24. Be the Guy Who’s Always Having Fun
Let her see that you’re always doing something fun, something exciting. Whether it’s a trip, a sport, or a new adventure, show her you’re living your best life. She’ll want to be part of your next adventure.
25. Keep Her Guessing About Where You Are
Don’t tell her where you’re going or what you’re doing. Be mysterious about your whereabouts. When you do check in, keep it vague. “Out doing things” is all she needs to hear.
26. Be Nonchalant About Your Achievements
Don’t talk about your successes too much. When she asks about your job, your career, or your personal achievements, just brush it off like it’s no big deal. Confidence without bragging is what will keep her coming back for more.
27. Make Her Do All the Work
Always make her come to you. Whether it’s initiating a conversation, making plans, or showing interest, let her put in the effort. If she really likes you, she’ll be happy to chase.
28. Show Her Your Best Side, and Keep It That Way
Don’t let her see the “real” you too quickly. Always put your best foot forward. When she sees you’re constantly the best version of yourself, she’ll feel like she’s got to keep up.
29. Be the Guy Who Doesn’t Care About Labels
Who needs labels? Never tell her if you’re “dating” or “seeing each other.” Leave it ambiguous and let her wonder where you stand. She’ll be hooked on figuring it out.
30. Keep Things Light and Fun
Don’t get bogged down in heavy discussions about commitment or long-term goals. Keep things light and fun, and let her feel like she’s living in a rom-com. The more lighthearted, the more she’ll want to stick around.
Just a little reminder: Everything above is purely for fun, take it with a grain of salt.
