How to Stand Your Ground and Be a Man

Let me teach you the correlation between how to stand your ground and being a man. I’m writing this article for a friend but more specifically for those of you “nice guys” that always seem to get dumped and don’t know what to do. Why do women prefer the bad boy over the nice guy?
Okay it isn’t necessarily being a bad boy that attracts the women. Well, most of them that is. It’s more about learning how to stand your ground when you need to. I mean look at it from this perspective – a woman is biologically programmed to go for the alpha. That’s just how it is. Just like how we men always go for the more feminine women.
Now, in a hypothetical situation, let’s say your girlfriend or wife is in trouble and needs you to be her savior. Would it make any sense that a man, who is usually stronger and more adaptable to protect, back away like a little wimp? The answer is no.
So when a woman tests your strength, courage, and just how big your balls are you should take that opportunity to show her that you can be her man. So learn how to stand your ground when necessary.
How to Stand Your Ground and Be a Man without being an asshole.
Now a lot of men get this wrong. They think that just because a woman would prefer an asshole over a nice guy means that they actually want an asshole for a partner. This is just utter bullshit. I don’t believe this is true either. Correct me if I’m wrong here ladies, but I believe that a woman wants a gentleman who knows how to stand your ground when you need to but doesn’t push it to the limits of douchebaggery.
Most guys act like complete assholes and I know this because I was one myself. I lost a girl that was really special to me and I have to admit that if I stopped playing these stupid games that these “relationship gurus” or “fraternity philosophies” taught me, I probably would have still been in a great relationship.
Don’t fall into the trap that I did. You don’t know what you had until it’s gone.
How to Stand Your Ground
There are a couple of things I should elaborate for you guys out there that just don’t get women. I know it’s hard to understand women psychology sometimes but I promise you that once you get it, you got it for life!
Rules to follow with how to stand your ground:
- Don’t back down when you feel strongly about something. But know when to admit that you are wrong because your ego needs to be put aside.
- Don’t agree with everything that a woman says. This makes you look weak and that you would do anything to please her. Women like to chase, they don’t like pleasers because there is no challenge.
- If you make a decision, stick with it and don’t look back. A real man keeps his word. There are way too many guys out there that don’t understand what it means to have integrity.
- Be a gentleman but have equal respect. Catch a woman on her bullshit only if she is in the wrong. Women are not perfect and they don’t need to be idolized or put on a pedastal. But at the same time, don’t be disrespectful.
Chivalry isn’t dead, we were just never taught it when growing up. The media has plagued our ideology that the nice guy gets the girl but that’s far from the truth. Don’t be an asshole, but don’t be a nice guy either. Be somewhere on the borderlines but learn how to control your emotions because that is the biggest factor in all of relationships.
