HOW MY BOYFRIEND MADE ME FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM

HOW MY BOYFRIEND MADE ME FALL IN LOVE WITH HIM

(Simple Lady-Catchin’ Instructions for the Single Man)

My boyfriend and I were platonic friends for three years before he tricked me into falling madly in love with him. There were a series of wily things that he did to change my thinking from “What a great guy” to “I don’t want to go a single day in my life without this guy in it, and I wonder what he’s wearing right now…”

Below is the voodoo that he do, and you should do, too.

1.     He did what he said he would do. If he said he’d call at 3pm, he did. AT 3 PM. If he said he’d meet a friend for coffee, or help someone find a Christmas gift, he’d be there. He’s a man of his word, with everyone in his life, no matter how small the word.

2.     He was silly. If there was dancing, karaoke-ing, ridiculous story telling, or faux Cirque-de-Soleil auditions to be done- he was IN. He didn’t care if he looked “cool”, he only cared about the laughing and fun. His Powers of Fun were so advanced, that he also knew how to get down and silly with kids and play with them, on their level, and it was totally natural for him. Swoon.

3.     He paid attention. If I mentioned that I liked something, he remembered. He remembered the names of important people in my life, goofy story details I’d told him, and our silly inside jokes from 2 years ago. He made me feel like my thoughts and feelings about little things were important. And when he showed up with a coffee drink for me, he knew what my favorite flavor was.

4.     He was creative. He wrote me things, and made me things, and would do basically anything to make me smile. When he asked me out on our first date, it was a fun, romantic date that he planned completely on his own. He picked up groceries and wine, came over, and cooked for me. He knew what kind of food I liked, because, #3. It was delicious. As is he.

5.     He was honest. He’d tell me how he felt, and what he thought about things, even if they were very personal, embarrassing, controversial, or not the same as my thoughts and feelings. He wasn’t afraid to be wrong, or vulnerable, or sincere. This takes so much bravery, and a strong sense of self. To me, this is what a real man is. And his straightforward, open approach made me open up too.

6.     He kissed me like he meant it. I won’t get too detailed here, but he has never given me a dismissive peck on the lips, ever. His kissing rocks my world.

7.     He told me why he loved me. Hearing someone tell you “I love you” is a great thing. But having someone tell you exactly what he or she loves about you is a magical, wonderful thing. Details are everything.

So, if you find yourself trapped in the dreaded “Friend Zone” with a woman, and want to move your relationship into the “Love Zone”, or if you just want to know the best way to woo a woman, step up your game, and show her who you really are.

It worked for me, and I couldn’t be more thrilled about it.
