How to Impress a woman

JonDouglas said:
Not having tried to impress a senior woman, or a younger one for that matter, I can't help you much other than to suggest you should be yourself and don't try to be something you're not. If that's not working, find out why from the ladies, not the men.

I agree with you, when I was first attracted to my husband, he was just being himself, not loud, obnoxious or silly. The fact that he wasn't trying was in itself appealing. I had plenty of guys hit on me and try to impress me, it was a turn off to me when they tried too hard.

IMHO, any woman who is active, friendly, caring, positive, takes care of herself and has a sense of humor and adventure is both special and beautiful. I suspect a man with similar, but manly, characteristics might have a good chance of impressing such a woman but I could be wrong. I also suspect there are a good many woman who're impressed by a man's money and status.

I am not impressed by the money or status. In my experience, men with money and status feel that is all they need to bring to a relationship. Maybe if they are trying to impress a woman who also has money and status it would work out.

After I had been a pilot for a few years with Air Wisconsin, I made Captain. Having those gold wings on my chest must have been very impressive. A lot of women would stop me and want to start a conversation in airports. Some even slipped me their phone numbers. When I moved over to United, even more so.

I guess it was the uniform. Maybe what impresses a woman is the uniform?

Uh! A marine, an airline pilot, 6 foot 4 inches, drop dead handsome,; You probably have a stance and a demeanor about you.
I can see why they would flirt with you!
I'm so tickled you're back on here, Oldman! You've been through some STUFF!!!!

Iā€™d guess it was the money that pilots make and the fact they are away from home a lot šŸ˜‚
 
Interesting what does it for people. I once had a gal hit on me because she liked the way I wore my cowboy hat. I liked it tilted up, some guys like it pulled low. I notice a woman in flannel with the sleeves rolled up but that is probably because I hang out at home depot and the art supply store. My friend Don only dates girls under thirty. He is 78 and does not date much.

Under 30? That's disgusting.
 
I agree with Katlupe! Money is meaningless, Chronological age is meaningless. OK. He has a new steel colored Jeep Gladiator, meaningless!
kinda tempting, haha! but no!
It's in his voice, in his eyes, in his kiss. I don't think women are that surface to be all about money.
I think the whole "marriage thing" will change in upcoming generations. I think it will be temporal and renewable only if both parties agree. Could be wrong about this but i feel it will morph into something completely different.

I used to buy my wife fresh flowers nearly every week. She loved flowers. I also helped her in preparing meals, cleaning up afterwards & vacuuming the floor every time she mentioned that the floors needs some cleaning. When we did our daily walk outside I always held her hand. When she spoke, I always put down what I was doing or reading & listened very attentively to what she said. I tried to show that she was the most important thing in my life because she was.

JonDouglas....Soooooooooooo true...so important to just be who you are. Don't try to impress because you will never be able to maintain the facade. It will be recognized and a turn off.

Well, I'm not a guy but I'll tell you what impresses me.
WORDS.
if a man can express himself as verbally eloquent and shows extreme intelligence, he has my rapt attention!
Dignity, class, his own style, is discriminating, distinguished, shows vitality, charisma, kindness, a robust demeanor, stately, commands respect, a rugged spirit, doesn't hurt either. I like a REAL MAN'S MAN!
i like a man who is adventurous and not afraid to explore things, places.
I like men who have tenderness, likes to be touched, protective, passionate and romantic. Loves intimacy.
He has to have his own moral code, his own spirituality, his own value system and stands behind his word.
A trimmed beard and healthy mustache melt me too! ( though a lot of women don't like that)
He is not fully tamed and won't be! He won't change who he is to please a woman!
Sorry, I meant this to be one sentence but when I got started, hahaha!

OMG! Did I forget HUMOR?

I would agree with everything you said Gaer...Thinking of the boys, men of my life I usually was most attracted to the charmers ...with sometimes a bit of a bad boy quality too;)...
Great sense of humor is a MUST!!

Imagine how marriage would be if it were in five year increments. Renewable if both parties agreed. As that fifth year got closer you each might start thinking about what it was that brought you together and be a little nicer to your mate who is not stuck with you for life or an ugly divorce. It just might get the toilet seat put down more often. I am sure in this day there are those who stay just because a divorce can be ugly. Then think of the abused women who would have an out. I have done workshops with a polyamory community in San Francisco who have over fifty members who live in a shared love atmosphere. Some marry most co-habitate. They still had some social problems. I think that until the human race as a whole raises it's vibration and understands our God-self we will struggle with relationships and the other silly problems we now think are our lives.

Well said!
Mankind must raise the quality and level of thought. This will enhance every aspect of life.

Define what you mean by ā€œhit on meā€ please, cause if I hit on you I am going have a baseball bat in my hands šŸ˜‚
 
There's too many easy outs. What happened to trying to make things work? Do people just have no interest in sticking around anymore? They take what they want and when they're done with ya they're free to just move on? What kind of a relationship is that? If you're not interested in keeping a person why even start that crap?

Like when a woman comes over and says "Hi cowboy, Me and my twin sister Betty Lou want to have a Rodeo tonight." that's when you know she is hitting on you. Or when you are at Home Depot and she asks you for help finding something and then holds your hand in both of hers and says "My, you have such big strong hands." That's a hit on you moment.

I was just in a topic on the new In n Out burger shop in Denver. Krispy Kreame also came up about the long lines waiting to get a bite. Maybe it's the marketing. That's might be what my dating life needs is better marketing! Maybe instead of using that same old pic of me in a tux on my dating site I should post my picture of me in a cowboy hat, vest, chaps, boots, spurs and my gold thong!
 
Marty sings of a love gone bad but all comments aside I think most of us hope to a love like Sassycakes and many others here are lucky enough to have created.
