If Your Man Starts Taking You For Granted, Do The Next
Sometimes feelings between couple begin to die out and guys may start to take females for granted. So, if this is happening to you right now or you want to avoid such situations, here’s what will have to be done.
1. Always be busy if he doesn’t plan well: If you two are dating and aren’t just hookup buddies, he should be asking you at least a day in advance to see you. If he gives you any less notice than this, always say you’re busy, even if you’re not. Make him learn that if he wants to see you, he’ll have to ask sooner. Remind him that others want your time, and you don’t save it for him.
2. Ditch him and take yourself on nice dates: If he invites you to another lame night at a bar with a big group of friends and hasn’t taken you on a nice date in a long time, say, ‘No thanks. I feel like doing something nice and treating myself tonight. I’m going to get a drink at a nice bar and take myself to a nice dinner.’ Make him see that if he doesn’t get on board with planning nice evenings, he just won’t get to see you as often. And make him worry a little – he should see that you don’t need a man to treat you. So he better make himself valuable to you in some way!
3. Do something that makes you the star: Whether this means joining a band, taking singing lessons, do something that puts all eyes on you. Remind him that you’re wonderful, and that plenty of people are ready and eager to give you attention. So if you don’t get it from him, you might just go get it elsewhere…
4. Plan nothing for his birthday: When he starts trying to brainstorm ideas for his birthday party with you, act non-interested and say, ‘Whatever you want. We did so little for mine so I figured you didn’t need a whole big thing.’ Make him see that he gets out of the relationship what he puts into it.
5. Cancel on him: If he takes you for granted, he probably often puts other things like his work or friends or even alone time before the relationship. Do the same by means of canceling. Cancel because you’re tired and want a night to yourself, or cancel because your friends invited you to something really fun. Show him that the relationship has basically been surviving because you have been prioritizing it, and force him to pull his own weight.
6. Withhold information…for a while: If something big happens in your life, don’t tell your guy for a while. Then let it slip one day and when he says, ‘Why didn’t you tell me?’ say, ‘Well it seemed like you had too much on your mind to listen lately so I just went to somebody else.’ Make him feel left out, and make him see he did that to himself.
7. Dress up super hot…then leave the house: Remind him he doesn’t take you to do anything that warrants such an outfit, so the rest of the world gets to enjoy seeing you in it, instead of him.
8. Come to bed late: If he takes you for granted, he probably works on his laptop, or plays video games, or texts his friends when you’re in bed right next to him, instead of asking you about your day. But he probably doesn’t realize how much he enjoys just having you next to him. Make him realize it by staying up later than him. Make him realize he needs to give you a good reason to be in that bed, like a good conversation or some good sex. Otherwise, you’d rather read your book in the living room.
9. Don't touch him for a while: Many men don’t realize how much just holding hands and touching in public means to them, until it’s taken away from them. Then they realize other men could perceive you as single! Suddenly, they feel you don’t need them as much!
10. Suggest a break, since he’s clearly not up for a relationship: If you take a break, it will suddenly become very clear to your guy all the things you add to his life, because suddenly they’ll be gone! And it will show him that what you were getting is not enough for you to stick around.
