I don’t know about you, but I believe that when it comes to couples, both of the partners like to keep a few secrets to themselves. Maybe it’s because of the fear of being judged, or because it is better to behave in a certain way, the number of possibilities is bigger than we might think.
I am sure that you’ve heard many times that women are very mysterious creatures. They like to say less and show more, they enjoy playing games, and they love when their partners guess what they have in mind. All of these are true, so we are going to argue with that.
But now it is time for the juicy part. I believe that men are just as mysterious as women are. They seem to appreciate that they can express only what makes them comfortable, but they also have great satisfaction when their partners know what they like.
I wanted to show that males love to keep secrets as well and this is why in today’s article we are going to talk about 10 things most men would never confess to a woman.
1. “I don’t know how to do this”
How many times did a man tell you that they have no idea how to do something?
That is because it is very important for them to be seen as strong men by you. They accept to do whatever you want, even if they don’t have a clue how they are going to fix that.
Think about the times when your loved ones didn’t want to call the plumber or the electrician. They need to be perceived as strong and smart and if you want to make them happy, make sure to let them know how great of a handyman they actually are!
2. “I don’t know what to say when you ask me tricky questions”
Sometimes women have a weird desire to ask their partners things like “Am I ugly?”, “Am I fat?”, “Is she prettier than me?”. They say all these things with a sad face while maintaining a fiery look.
If their partners say something like “No, of course. You are not ugly/fat”, they will think that they are being lied to. If men answer by saying “Yes, you did gain a little bit of weight recently”, women are most likely going to cry and be upset.
What can men do? All of them HATE being asked questions like this. Of course, they will tell you nice things, even if a dress makes you appear three sizes too big. They will find a nice way to tell you if something is not right, but not all of them are willing to women directly that questions like this should be absolutely forbidden.
3. “I am jealous”
There are men who are not afraid to tell their partners that they are feeling jealous when they are talking or even flirting with someone else. However, the majority of them will keep it quiet, or they will give you hints about their emotions, but they won’t tell you directly.
4. “I like being complimented”
We all know that women love to hear things such as “Your hair looks great today”, or “Your outfit is impeccable”. It is a tradition that men are the ones who give women compliments, but the truth is that they love to hear them just as much as women do.
Males need to know that you appreciate them, so don’t be shy to give them all the words of affection they might need! By doing so, you will boost their confidence and self-esteem!
5. “I like confident women”
Men like to have a partner that is confident in all aspects of their life, whether we are talking about a career, body image, or personality. If we are being honest, everyone hates being around someone who complains all the time, right?
You don’t have to think that you can be confident only if you look a certain way, because it doesn’t have anything to do with your physical appearance! It is true when people say that “confidence comes from within”, so why not show it to the whole world?
6. “I like doing girly things from time to time”
Even though they won’t recognize it, men actually enjoy doing a face mask, watching a romantic movie, lighting a scented candle, or moisturizing their bodies.
They would love to do all these things with you from time to time, but the reason they don’t want to admit it is the fact that other men “won’t understand”.
7. “I am afraid of this”
We live in a world where we tend to believe that men are creatures who are not allowed to feel fear. Nothing further from the truth! However, men like to feel and to give off the impression that nothing can make them feel scared, so they won’t tell you that the panic feeling kicks in.
This means that they won’t tell you that they are scared when they see a spider, a snake, or a huge cockroach. If they can do it, they will gladly smack all of them with a slipper!
8. “The way you look is important for me”
There is no doubt that attitude and personality are more important than looks, but men enjoy seeing their partners all dressed up and with a subtle glam.
They love to see the person they like being s**y, without being indecent. It doesn’t matter if you are not the most fashionable person, or if your roots have grown, the most important thing is that you tried to make yourself look your best for them.
9. “I check you out as well”
When you are going on a date with someone, you tend to check out that person from head to toe. You pay attention to the way they behave, walk, talk, dress, treat others, and so many other things.
If you like what you see, you might want to keep seeing that person. The same thing applies to men. If they like you, they will be interested to find out more about you and they will want to spend more time together.
However, this doesn’t mean that you two will end up getting married, so don’t rush into dreaming about your perfect wedding!
10. “I’m one of the best at hiding my feelings”
Even though men don’t get as emotional as women do, this doesn’t mean that they don’t have feelings, but they don’t want the whole world to see it.
They are human beings too, so it’s obvious that certain things affect them. However, men pretend that they don’t care, because it is easier to ignore the feelings than to be overwhelmed by them.
TAKEAWAY
In conclusion, men are sensitive people too, even though they don’t want to admit it. They want to give off the impression that they are the strongest creatures that ever existed, be we all know the truth, am I right?
