Sex and Evolution: Relationship Advice for Men

A lot of men get caught up by listening to women too much. By being their 'best friends'.

One of the big drawbacks of the advance in women's rights. Is that when it comes to relationships, we have forgotten how to be men. And the biggest mistake we make, has been treating women how they say they want to be treated. Rather than how they actually want to be treated.

The truth is, what a woman says she wants from a man is often the complete opposite of what she really wants.

Sex and Evolution: Relationship Advice for Men

For example...

A woman says she wants a man who listens to her.

She says she wants a man with a sense of humor.

But she dates a man who dominates the conversation. She dates the guy with money.

There lies the problem. If you only listen to what a woman says she wants, you will fail every time.

Here's why.

Unlike a man, every woman only has only 400 or so chances to conceive a child in her life. And, contrary to popular belief and Hollywood movies, the real motive behind every sexual relationship is not romantic love and happy ever after.

The true driver behind every relationship is immortality. In other words - to have children and pass on our genes successfully.

A good way to think about it is that a woman's mind (and ego) tells her to want one thing. But her mind is not in charge. Her body is. And her body wants successful babies.

The same is true for a man. Though in theory we have many more chances to conceive, and less to lose from a single relationship. Biologically speaking.

So, her body makes the decisions, while the mind is left to come up with excuses and justifications later on.

So what does this mean for you, in your quest for a satisfying and fulfilling relationship?

It means you need to pay less attention to what women say (and what they print in popular relationship books) and more attention to what women actually respond to.

And what do they respond to? Simply anything that shows you are a prime candidate for giving her successful offspring.

Including the ability to provide her and your offspring (i.e. The ability to make money).

Strength, displays of strength (strength is an indicator of ability to provide and protect, from our hunter-gatherer days) and the ability to protect.

And that's about it.

Everything else is really just icing on the cake. Such as a sense of humour, good looks, and all that stuff.

Ok, but what if you're not strong, and you're not rich, and if we're being really honest... you're not much to look at either?

Well, looks aren't really necessary (see Mick Jagger), and it so happens there is one trait that trumps both strength and wealth in the biological game. Although I always recommend working on both strength and wealth as well - but that's another article.

That super-trait is confidence.

Being able to display true confidence triggers a switch, which tells other people (including women) that you are a successful guy. Once this switch is flipped they will be more attracted to you, and (when it comes to women) more eager to have your babies.

In the past, back when brawn dominated brain. Showing confidence without the ability to back it up was risking your life. So confidence was reserved for alpha-males only.

These days, the risk isn't the same.

The problem is, trying to fake confidence rarely ever works. So forget trying to fool people. There is an element of 'fake it till you make it' involved, but true confidence has to come from a belief in yourself and in your abilities.

If you're interested, I'll share with you my secret of developing confidence even if you have none at the moment. In fact I might just write an article solely on the topic since I am running out of room here.

But here's the secret of the whole thing. You don't have to be great at everything. You don't have to have millions, bench press 500lbs, have a full head of hair, and drive a Mercedes.

You only have to be really good at one thing. From there, you can develop all the confidence you need. And then all you need to know is how to handle women (the right way) and you'll be amazed at the quality (and quantity - if you so desire) of relationships that you will be able to enjoy.
