And more important I'm going to tell it to my 6 year old daughter it when I see her struggling with her own perfectionism issues.

Watch your manners- be a gentleman 7. Have a job or run a business 8. Be financially stable. 9. Don’t be dishonest. 10. Don’t commit criminal offences. 11. Don’t be controlling. 12. Don’t stalk. 13. No dirty talk or pictures. Most women don’t want you to text a picture of your privates. 14. Leave the room to pass gas or belch 15. Don’t talk badly about your ex especially if you have kids. 16. Be relatively fit and healthy 17. Behave appropriately- don’t embarrass your date with immaturity Here’s a tip- many women like projects and makeovers when it doesn’t involve our dates. Ask a female friend or a same aged cousin to help you with this. I have a cousin that I would love to help out but would never hurt him by suggesting it.

Drennan Spitzer 1. If a man isn’t employed seek employment or if he is disabled get onto benefits and find a way to support himself. 2. I didn’t say “be healthy and fit”. I said “be relatively healthy and fit.” Women don’t generally care about a few extra pounds but if he is morbidly obese women aren’t necessarily going to find him attractive. If he has health issues that’s even more reason to eat healthy and maintain a healthy body weight. I certainly don’t think a six pack is necessary . I’m saying eat a proper diet and do the best he can to be active.

I really appreciate your note on respect, because I think this is a thing a lot of guys don't really understand when they're failing at dating. They assume doing "chivalrous" things will indicate respect. Of course I appreciate those actions from anyone but real respect comes down to recognizing and respecting someone as an individual, not just an object they're trying to put favor-tokens in until they get sexual gratification. I find respect hard to define but I think it comes down to recognizing someone as a full human being like one's self and treating them with the consideration every person deserves (and in the same way respect--and this consideration--can be lost through offensive or immoral actions). Therefore objectifying a woman and treating a relationship as purely a one way sexual transaction will always be disrespectful because the woman is not given full personhood.

Great video Dr, you know your stuff. Thought I might share the story of how I met my husband in case it might be useful to any guys out there. We have been married for almost 10 years now and together for a couple of years before that. The first thing I noticed about him was was his physical attractiveness. Tall and lean with a nice face and smile, although not perfectly attractive- he has very narrow shoulders, a boyish chest and noticeably short arms, plus a bit of an unusual walk. He was also wearing long black unfashionable sock and an Australian Outback Akubra 😂 But hey, neither am I perfect, and he’s attractive enough for me that I always find plenty to enjoy about him. The second thing I noticed was his integrity. I could almost smell it on him and this was HUGELY attractive. And the third big thing that made me fall in love with him was how he cared about people. Like, a lot. Didn’t matter who they were, he took the time to listen to them, and was proactive about helping people when they had a need. These 3 things have been such a blessing in our marriage. When you live with someone who has developed good traits especially like the second 2 your life is full of good things. He is good to my family and friends, and I can trust him, which makes things so easy for me. Don’t get me wrong, though, our marriage has I think more than it’s fair share of serious disagreements and conflict. But he has stuck with me through thick and thin and has the humility to work through issues when I bring up things that hurt me. I try to do the same. He’s a really good guy. And I have a LOT of respect for him. (He also wears better looking socks for me now, which is really nice of him 😊)

I discovered your youtube videos recently and I am "almost" addicted :) , however, I am married to a mentally ill man and was not fully aware of it prior marriage. Looking back I should have informed myself better, because this toxic relationship is extremely difficult at times. I would say : be always honest upfront, try to inform yourself, try to understand this man before you get involved and think it over if you are willing to invest in such a difficult relationship, then make your decision. My mistake was, I was too fast in my decision. This relationship started over the internet and we married too soon. So your advice to take it slow is precious.

@@SuperGuanine TKS. You hit the nail on the head with my husband. But what do you think: is maybe fear of loss of respect and fear of having to look in the mirror and realizing that some things in the relationship have to change and fear of maybe having not all the power and control? Also because male leadership is under atack in these days? Good male leadership is always a blessing. Anyway, I am not giving up. And our relationship is improving. It takes lots of prayer, wisdom, advice from smart and dedicated people like Dr Todd Grande; in the meantime I also discovered Dr John Townsend, I read some free books on Hoopla ( local library) I was suprised how much I knew, but at the end: love and prayer and being consistent with my new behavior pattern causes change, I cannot change my husband but I have changed some of my behavior and believe me often I say: " Dear God plz give me now the right words, because I really do not know what to say"..And I feel so much better, I do not need to be in charge, God is and I trust that he will help me; or sometimes I do not say anything.. For me the most important fact is that I know that I am loved by Christ even if my husband says at times ugly things to me. Hey, if you are the good looking runner in the picture, you surely know that there are quite some phrases in regard to running in the bible. One of my favorite ones is in Isaiah 40...But they that wait upon the Lord shall renew their strength; they shall mount up with wings as eagles; they shall run, and not be weary; and they shall walk and not faint.

Personally? Traits I find attractive in a man are self-awareness, intelligence (IQ *and* EQ), gentleness, humor and kindness to people and animals. These qualities are far more meaningful than "looks" and make any man inherently beautiful. You've offered excellent advice to men! A mental disorder would not change my feelings for a wonderful man, although I agree this isn't usually the first topic of conversation. 🐯

Re: gimmicks and approach/avoid: When I was in high school my grandmother's advice was to play coy/hard to get with my boyfriend - not be available to call, things like that. I flat-out told her that was ridiculous and I wasn't going to play mind games with someone I liked. If we both wanted to talk to each other/spend time together, it seemed both pointless and destructive to pretend not to be interested. I'd be cheating us both out of time spent connecting with each other, and I'd be doing it through dishonesty. As I've gotten older I've learned that relationships based on "skills" like that don't seem to be very happy ones.

My husband and I have been together for 10 years and I agree with the criteria in this video 100%. I think it's important to explain that when you say physical attractiveness is important it doesn't mean that everyone has to look like a model. It just means that the person is attractive to you. For example, my husband is very attractive TO ME, but he may not be attractive to someone else. Also, his disposition is very attractive TO ME, but it may not be to someone else. That's why it's so important to relax and be yourself. Dr. Grande, it was so cute when some of the women made comments here about their crush on you and suggested ways you could improve your looks. With all due respect, during the entire video I was yelling at you in my head to unbutton your top button, LOL! But after analyzing the situation I realized that I and the other women here shouldn't try to change you because then you wouldn't be Dr. Grande anymore! So go ahead and button that top button! If you're married, I guess your wife doesn't mind. And if you're single, you'll attract someone who likes a guy who buttons his top button, LOL! Thanks for the great videos! I just discovered your channel last week and I'm already becoming a Grande addict. Boy, you have a video for everything!

I don't have much advice on behavior, but when it comes to looks, there is a lot of things you can do to look great, even if you wasn't born conventionally attractive. As mentioned in the video, grooming is a big part. (Take care of your hair and beard, use a slight amount of deodorant after your shower etc.) I personally find that what people wear and how well they take care of themselves is way more important to my attraction than any with born features. I'd also like to ad that you might want to dress like the type of girl you want to attract. Not meaning that you should wear skirts and dresses, but if you want a goth girl, dress like a goth. If you want a geek girl, wear a geeky t-shirt (but fresh and in good quality). Of course, this comes naturally to a lot of people because we tend to look for partners we share interests with in the first place.

I am a very passionate musician and mathematician who overcame many obstacles in dealing with autism. Here I am with so many girls who I really like and even love, but am always walking myself into the "friend zone." I always believed that there would be some sort of forgiveness in this world of dating but even the nicest girls are only kind of brutal, even those not wanting children. Over and again my desire to communicate perhaps more frequently than others I believe is interpreted as a weakness or something, that I don't have my world under control.

I sympathise. I've had honest women tell me I'm good looking and many gay guys openly hit on me, but it seems appearance isn't the only thing. I portray some autistic traits but am not formally autistic, above all I struggle with depression and a very negative outlook. I feel it's important for me to be honest about these things because I want to have a true relationship with someone who likes me as I am. But it seems that the bias towards mental disorders is extremely strong with women. Dr. Grande mentions a few minutes, but frankly from my experience I should hide these things as much as I can for a few weeks at least, yet it feels to me like if the woman I'm with would have held such negative judgement against me and my issues in the first few weeks then she's not someone I'd like to be with.

I do think that all individuals (women & men) must follow their own values in life and create their own personality. If someone finds a partner who is not attracted by him/her or hearts him/her, that just mean is not the right person so he/she must keep searching and not give up. Everything in life should be kept in a balance.

Thank you both for mentioning touch. I try to not invade other people’s personal space.

I think some men see a man who is successful with women and try to analyse why women like him but pick out different traits than what the women are focused on. Men label another man as a “bad boy” and assume women like his dominance or something else they see in the man, but the women who like his type are actually attracted by a sense of spontenaity and adventure that brings them excitement in their life (for example). Or a shy guys interprets another man as being arrogant when he is seen as simply confident by women who are confident themselves.

In other words, I am fairly certain that I have appeared unattractive to women, and during my recovery, have probably also appeared attractive. Now keep in mind, I'm an average dude in my forties, but I think the attractiveness I'm speaking of here is the kind when a person projects confidence and has an ability to connect with people.

Although I really enjoy Dr. Grande's videos, I felt that this one was a bit off. It has two main flaws: #1 It focuses mainly on how men should behave around a woman to attract her instead of focusing on men trying to better themselves as human beings. Sure, any guy can take Dr. Grande's advice and will probably do really well initially with a woman play-acting the role, but then the cards all fall down once his real personality comes out. #2 The advice assumes that most women want these things, when the truth of the matter is that everyone (yes, even us ladies) are individuals with our own unique quirks and desires, and thus - the behavior we find attractive varies greatly. When I was younger, I was always drawn to the quiet, lanky, shy guys in the darkest corners of a bar. When I became older I was more attracted to the men with dad-bods who seemed outgoing and humorous. So it even changes as you age. Not to mention that each of my friends were attracted to completely different types of men (behaviour-wise) and while they were totally head over heels over some guy, I on the other hand could not fathom what they saw in him. We're individuals! What we find attractive cannot be generalized! I think that instead of giving a list of recommended behaviors, it would be much more helpful to focus on improving ourselves, becoming confident in who we are and then flaunting our own unique qualities. I think Jack Nicholson is a great example. The guy is not handsome, but oozes so much charisma and confidence in who he is (without doing it in a douchy way) that he is instantly attractive. And that never changed as he got older, balder and heavier. He had that unique thing that made him "Jack Nicholson" and he just went with it, even flaunted it. That's what we should all be doing, finding ourselves, polishing what we have and flaunting the hell out of it! The right people will find us in the end.
@elisamastromarino71235 жыл бұрын
I'd high five you on point #2 if I could. But to point #1; everyone can better themselves in their presentation. As women, the majority of us use hair colouring, wear makeup, and deceptively flattering clothes instead of just bettering _ourselves_ . We know it's fake as hell, but we still do it. They're going to find out the truth sooner or later that our initial looks were...not real. 😄 I think your take on the first point is idealistic. But kudos to you on numero due.

@@elisamastromarino7123 Hey there Elisa and thanks for your response! Sorry, I probably wasn't entirely clear. I never meant that you should stop paying attention to your outward appearance and just look like a bum while focus on improving yourself emotionally. My response is purely about what Grande is referring to: A handy collection of behaviors that will attract women. I can just imagine all the male narcissists out there feverishly jotting down notes for their next date. But what if you are not genuinely like the things he describes? What if those behaviors don't come naturally to you? Not only will you seem kind of shady, but before long the woman will realize that you've faked your way into the relationship and it will all backfire badly. Why not instead be your genuine self. All your personality lumps, bumps and all. Again using Nicholson as an example, he doesn't try to cover or sugar coat any of his crudeness or bad manners. But we still find him fascinating and alluring. The fact that he is utterly and completely comfortable in his own skin literally oozes out of the guy. And yet he does that without seeming conceited. He's just comfortable with himself, and that would make me comfortable to be around him. And if you do have sides to your personality that are pushing all the ladies away, then instead of covering that up with an act, work on those issues until you've conquered them and be that way genuinely, even though it will take a longer time.

What I hear him generally saying is, “Be a nice guy. Be yourself.” He’s essentially reciting what every therapist, counselor and well-meaning parental unit says. I believe very little of this (except physical attractiveness and not letting criticism affect you) is a predictor of attraction. Which is why this kind of general milquetoast advice engenders so much frustration for many young men. I also disagree with his view on sex as a topic. If sex is what you want (and that’s not a bad thing) and you fail to make your intentions known fairly early, women will relegate you to the friend zone just as readily as they might be creeped out by you. THAT is a balancing act too! In fact, it can more creepy to talk about wanting sex after it’s too late to bring up the topic. If it’s what you want, that’s also being genuine! Too, talking about sex can be a way to screen for women who have the same level of interest in it as you.

Notes to self for the initial attraction stage with a woman ATTRACTION FACTORS - Physical attractiveness - Dominant nonverbal behavioral (open posture) - Dressing nicely - Morality DO - Accept criticism with a sense of humor (good sign--it's there to be helpful). Don't be defensive - Show respect (cf. Chivalry) - Be kind to everyone - Smile - ACTIVE LISTENING. Remember the narrative. Understand the feelings behind the story - Take it slowly - Be genuine and authentic DON'T - Do anything in excess. Extreme moves and grand gestures work better in the movies than in real life - Use gimmicks (pickup lines). Be straightforward - Talk about sex (creepy) or prior love interests - Presume the relationship is closer than it is. This relates to histrionic personality (overly theatrical or melodramatic)--generally considered unattractive - Lie - Stare (creepy) - Pursue. Balance of approach and avoidance - Narcissistic. Don't be entitled, don't appear arrogant, don't be condescending, don't lack empathy, don't be jealous, and don't be overconfident - Perfect is the enemy of the good. Don't get caught up in these lists

Very interesting Dr Grande, and a wee bit funny with your little bits of humor! There must be a lot that goes on subconsciously in the way we find someone attractive because things you mentioned, and that I agree with, weren’t in my conscious mind, but you’re right. Creepy is a definite no no. So is the prison suit 😝. For me, the kinder a man is to the world around him, the more attractive he’ll be to me, but he must be intelligent and be interesting on a deep level. Sense of humor is high on my list, but not a loud, brash humor. Tasteful and a little dry humor. Smiling wide isn’t necessary. Handsome isn’t necessary. Clean and tidy is a definite! Voice - that’s a huge one for me.... quietly spoken, or at least gentle, and not just to me. Just not loud. It has to be authentic. So many seemingly little things, but certainly not perfection. Oh, and too much swearing 🤬 is not attractive to me. There’s more to my list, but I’ll not bore you 😂. Thank you Dr Grande, and have a happy afternoon ☺️

@@DrGrande PLEASE do one on how difficult it is to try to even establish companionship, let alone a relationship, after being happily married for decades, and then becoming a Widow/Widower. I mean, after reading all these comments ( both women & men) it makes me feel like It will be just me & my dogs for the rest of my life.

A woman must be in good physical condition is an absolute must for me. It is high on my priority list and I can't imagine why someone wouldn't take care of their body. I love a woman who dresses with her own sense of style. Humor is important as well as shared values.
