1.       Men need space, that doesn’t mean he doesn’t love you

In relationships, it’s common that women will want more time together in a more intimate manner. Men can sometimes want space to themselves apart from their partner. This contradiction can leave women feeling hurt as they often misinterpret his behavior.

His behavior is typical among all men as he takes time out for himself for a season. Men are different than women in that they need time alone to reaffirm their individuality, even in a relationship. This time alone allows him to come back to the relationship feeling refreshed and ready to give. Where women can think that it means that their relationship is going downhill, it isn’t, he just needs to recharge as a man.


2.       Closing off can mean he loves you

When men face problems, they often become closed off and less communicative. When women face problems they will often become more communicative and expressive. A misconception women have is that when men become closed off, it is because they don’t want relationship and intimacy.

Sometimes men close off and don’t communicate because they don’t want their partner to feel the burden that they feel. So in an effort to protect his loved ones, he doesn’t express himself so his partner doesn’t have to feel the burden he is feeling.

Closing off to a man is how they protect themselves as well as their loved ones. Men don’t feel that by talking over an issue, people can feel better about it. Men believe that by talking about the issue with you will just put bad emotions on you, as well as himself.
 

3.       Men are the ones who should do the approaching

Single women will believe that men should be the ones who should be doing the approaching and making a move on a woman. They may believe that others can see them as easy, if she is the one who approaches a man.

However many times men can be discouraged from approaching a women because they believe that; she’s not single, doesn’t want to be approached, or he is too afraid. Women often overlook this as they neglect that even the most confident appearing man will feel fear and self-doubt, although well hidden.

To help her love life out, an interested woman should make the first move and give him a strong signal that she’s interested. In this approach, her assertiveness and self-confidence is what can make her more attractive in any man’s view.



4.       What women wear

Women can often put a lot of effort into looking lady like in order to impress men. However what they may not understand is that men will often find jogging pants and a plain t-shirt sexy. Women don’t have to try that hard in order to be sexy in a man’s eyes. Being sexy in casual clothes is often the most alluring thing a woman can do to a man.


5.       Cosmetics

Along with what she wears, always wearing make up in order to impress a man is another myth women will believe in. Sometimes men will view having very little or no make-up on a woman is something that attracts him. Once again being sexy while keeping it casual is incredibly powerful. This is partly because men can see through a woman who always wears make up to hide her face. Men can at times want to see her true beauty.

Along with this misbelief, is having too much make-up on. Sometimes women can wear too much make up, where if they had less on they would actually be more attractive.


6.       Wrinkles or a couple of pounds

Another misconception in what men find attractive in a woman, are wrinkles and gaining a couples of pounds. These are things that women will spend a lot of time worrying about believing that they matter a great deal, when in fact men don’t actually care too much about them.

Having a wrinkle appear over time or gaining a couple of pounds are usually things that go unnoticed among men. Along with which even if a guy does notice, they aren’t things that are really going affect his feelings towards a woman. His attraction is based on more factors than just those small details. They are not worth the amount of worry women will put on them.


7.       What you eat on a date

Men don’t care about what women will eat on a date. Women will often act in a self-conscious manner when ordering food on a date. Men aren’t as judgemental as women may believe them to be, they often don’t care what she orders. In reality if a woman can eat a steak or a larger portion instead of a salad, it can actually be something that men find refreshing.


8.       The little things

Sometimes getting a man to notice the little details can be hard to do. Men may not notice the little details such as the shoes she’s wearing, or a recent haircut. Afterwards, women can feel neglected and hurt by him not noticing. Expecting a man to notice the little things that women will put a lot of emphasis on can often be an unfair evaluation of his feelings for her.



9.       Sweat on a woman

Among the misconceptions women have about men, women will believe that their sweat is something that men find unattractive. They will often act self-conscious when they are sweaty believing that they smell. In actuality, men find sweat on a woman something sexy and they will overlook the smell to a degree because they are turned-on by it.

Not only does sweat make a woman’s skin shine making her more physically attractive, but it also reminds men of sex and it releases pheromones that engage his masculine nature. Sweat on a woman can be a huge turn on for any guy.


10.   Men are brutally honest, it doesn’t mean they’re jerks

When men communicate they can often be brutally honest or very direct, this doesn’t mean that they are jerks though.

Men will communicate honestly with the people they love because they believe that honesty is the best way to solve problems. Instinctively, fixing problems for the people they love is one way men express love. So where a man can come off as insensitive, in his efforts he is communicating love in a way that is just not well received. Where he may need to learn how to be more tactful in the way he talks, his direct way of communicating is often misunderstood by women.


11.   Men need compliments or they can get seduced

Even though men can seem strong, it is because they have been taught to act that way or have not learnt to be expressive.

Men, just like women need compliments in the things they do and who they are. Without affirmation, a man can be left vulnerable to seduction from a woman who does give him what he needs emotionally. This is often how affairs start, where couples spend less and less time together, little by little.

 

12.   Men aren’t emotional

What can be fooling is how emotionally stable a man is. Masked by an unemotional face or his unexpressive mannerisms, men are just as emotional as women are. Men will just hide them more, and his emotions are different, so spotting them is trickier. In truth, men have emotional needs just as much as women do. They are just more hidden.

 

These are the wrong beliefs that women have about men. What we believe will affect the way we deal with our relationships and interactions with men. So if they are wrong, our interactions will be wrong as well. Only through learning the truth about men can people as a couple work on their relationships in a successful way. Use these truths to better your relationship with men.
