How To Become The Best Boyfriend She’s Ever Had In 5 Simple Steps

With that, here are five positive traits of attached men. And if you possess just about all of the following, then perhaps the problems in the relationship don’t lie with you alone.
1. You Listen
When words come out of her mouth, do you actually pay attention to what is being said, or does your brain just process mumbling sounds while you stare at her chest? A good boyfriend is an active listener, meaning he asks questions and doesn’t just sit there, waiting for his turn to speak.
Showing her that you have a genuine interest in what she has to say means, among other things, that you respect her opinions and find her interesting; two things that will meet any woman’s criteria.
2. You Don’t Bore Her
A great relationship is one that never feels stale. So to avoid having your flames of desire burn out, you have to be unpredictable and mysterious in order to keep her guessing (and on her toes).
3. You Aren’t Passive
She may feel more empowered by it in the beginning, but in the long run, no woman wants a passive, submissive man who completely compromises his personality to make her happy. Retain your personality, stand by your opinions, and don’t give in too easily. Show her that you are strong, confident, and have a spine.
4. You Notice The Details
Did she suddenly get highlights in her hair, shed a few pounds or buy a new dress? These are all things you should take note of; women will appreciate your keen eyes, since they show that you are attentive and don’t skim over life’s more subtle details including things that she cares about.
5. You Give Her Space
Trust is the foundation of any good relationship. Part of that entails giving her the freedom to have a life separate from yours without asking 20 questions or having jealous fits, and knowing that she’s not taking your trust for granted. Keep things in perspective; would you like a girlfriend who kept tabs on every move you made? Probably not, and the same goes for her. And always look for a silver lining; in this case, you’ll have time to hang out with your buddies, and have something to talk to her about the next time you see her.
