Things Men Should Do

This post is the first in a series that I will add to from time to time, when I think of something new for the list.  I hope you enjoy these little jewels I'm about to drop.

PAY ATTENTION TO THE SMALL THINGS

This is extremely important.  The small things let a woman know that you really care about her wants/needs.  Remembering her favorite flowers are daisies and bringing them to her just because, or bringing/making her favorite food when she is sick and shut in are examples of what I'm talking about here. The little things are in the details and the details are MAJOR.  Paying attention to the small things will get you points which will lead to the cookie and lots of it...TRUST.

OPEN DOORS

Every woman wants to feel like a lady when she is out with a man and having a man open doors for her helps that feeling along.  I'm talking opening the car door when she's getting in and upon entering buildings opening the door for her and allowing her to walk ahead of you (which also gives you time to admire her strut; we know you do this and usually add a lil extra because we know you're watching).  When a woman has doors opened for her it not only makes her feel all feminine and what not but it also makes her feel like the dude she's spending time with is somewhat of a gentleman and you def want her to think you are a gentlemen.  Why, you ask? Because it will make her trust and respect you more...which will lead to the cookie.


ASK HER HOW HER DAY WAS AND LISTEN TO THE ANSWER

Ladies love it when the men in their lives take an interest in how their day was, whether it was a good day or a bad one.  Be sincere when you ask and actually listen to what she says about her day.  You dont necessarily have to give feedback (unless she asks for it); sometimes just having someone listen helps.  Being the ear to listen will make her more at ease with you which (say it with me now) will lead to the cookie.

To be continued at a later date and time...
