It’s true that great men are hard to find. So when you find one, try not to ruin your chances and cause him to lose interest in you by making these deadly dating mistakes that most women make with men.

Remember, attractive men have dated a lot of women so they know what’s going on. The result? They’ll lose interest and disappear before you realize you’ve done anything wrong.

So to help you attract a quality guy and actually keep him interested in you for a long time, here are five things that many women do that blow their chances with a man, and how to avoid them.

Mistake 1: You Share Your feelings with Him Too Early

Above all else, men love their freedom and their independence, which is not so surprising right? So when you announce that you love him and that you can’t live without him, it often sets off a trigger that you might be one of those “clingy types.” This will cause a man to lose interest in you extremely fast!

Try to remember that the early stages of dating should always remain casual.

Only after you get to know each other really well should you pursue anything further. It’s also worth mentioning that you can’t logically convince a man to fall in love with you.

Always keep in mind that falling in love is a process that happens outside the conscious mind. Which brings me to…

Mistake 2: Trying to Push Things Too Far Too Soon

It’s natural to wonder about the nature of your relationship, “Does he want more? Or is this just a fling?” But remember, if you start talking about marriage after only 12 months, you might greatly increase the chances of him losing interest in you and thus ruin your chances of taking things further.

And if you don’t live together, cooking dinner or doing his laundry isn’t a good idea.  A nice meal once in a while is okay, but don’t make it a regular thing.

Yes, it’s true, many men are scared of commitment; but just because they don’t want it now, doesn’t mean they don’t want to settle down. They just need time.

Mistake 3: Being Too Available

You might think this is playing a mind game or being manipulative, but putting your best side forward is also manipulative. Why? Well, it’s because you’re doing it to get a desirable outcome.  YOUR desirable outcome!

This is simply a reminder to be who you were before you met the man and continue to be that person. It’s always best to be your natural self rather than using manipulative tactics to keep him interested in you.

Remember that your busy, interesting and fun life only has so much time for him; no matter how much you like him. And remember, men love a challenge, so this actually works in your favor.

Mistake 4: Not Showing Off Your True Self

Men love confident women with a strong sense of self-worth. Unfortunately, women often try to guess how the man wants them to act and try to accommodate his mold.

This eventually leaves very little room for your own personality to shine. (And yes, men do this too.) Always remember that a man will love and appreciate your strengths and your uniqueness.

To a man, a woman’s own sense of individuality is very attractive. It’s what makes you his “type.” And it’s this very same uniqueness that will keep him interested in you for the long haul.

Mistake 5: Appealing to His Sexual Side Too Much

Believe it or not, it’s NOT make-up, dyed hair, pretty clothes or even nice shoes that will attract a man and keep him interested in you for a successful long-term relationship.

While “looks” is the obvious factor that seems to get an instant response from men, long-term relationship success comes with finding a man who admires and respects you regardless of your exterior. If your man only likes you for your looks, then he doesn’t really love you.

It’s as simple as that!

So there you have it. The five big mistakes that women make while they’re dating men. Avoid these mistakes and you’ll dramatically increase the chances of succeeding with a man and keeping him interested in you for a long time.
