7 Common Relationship Mistakes Men Often Make

Sometimes we might wonder why we are unable to make any of our relationships last long. We might think we have not found the right one yet,

but it may actually be something we do that pushes people away. Women have a certain amount of tolerance for their partner’s mistakes, but once you cross this level of tolerance you can’t go back. You might do it without being aware, but it is important to reevaluate your actions and words if you think the problem might be in you.

Here are 7 common relationship mistakes that men often make.

1. Being a man baby

No woman wants to be in a relationship with an overgrown child. She wants a person who she can rely on and who can make their own decisions. Modern men are becoming weaker and passive. If you never take initiative and you always ask for her opinion, you are likely to lose her attention. This may be flattering at the beginning, but a woman wants a strong partner who can take care of himself without asking her about everything.

2. Neglecting personal growth

A lot of men give up on themselves once they get in a long-term relationship. They forget about improving themselves, their appearance or growing as people because they think this woman will always love them. But, if your partner is constantly trying to improve and if you are not trying to catch up with her, you are likely to lose her very soon.

3. Forgetting your friends

Spending less time with friends and committing to your partner is not a bad thing. But that doesn’t mean you should stop meeting them forever. Your friends should remain a part of your life as well as your partner’s friends should remain a part of her life. Your friends are the ones who were besides you even before you started this relationship and if things get bad they will be there to catch you. So, try to stay in touch and make sure you have a guys’ night out from time to time.

4. Giving up on your dreams

Life does not end when you start a relationship. In fact, it should improve from that point. Both partners should support each other when it comes to achieving your dreams and goals. Life your life, work on yourself and try to become a better person each day. Your partner will love you even more for that.

5. Obsessing over her

You had a life before her, so don’t stop living it now. Try not to suffocate her with too much affection. Make sure you spend alone time and you let her have her space too. If you don’t let her spend time without you, she will resent you for it eventually.

6. Being overly jealous

Jealousy is normal as long as it is healthy. However, being controlling and distrusting without a particular reason is never romantic or acceptable. If you spy on her every move or her phone it indicates you have trust issues with yourself not with her. She chose you for a reason, so don’t doubt her fidelity or your worth.

7. Getting stuck in a romantic rut

It is impossible to have the same level of romance and excitement as you did at the beginning of the relationship. Of course, it is important to have a romantic dinner from time to time or go someplace alone where you can enjoy yourselves. But that doesn’t mean you have to do it on a daily basis. Romantic dates are more memorable if they happen less often. Also, don’t make sex a routine, there are always new things you can try in the bedroom that may spice things up. Being a man doesn’t mean you are the only person responsible for keeping the excitement alive. Talk about her and ask her what she would like to do. Or, you can be spontaneous and surprise her with something exciting.
