How to find the right woman? Let me tell you something. I used to settle in relationships because I lacked confidence, self-esteem, leadership, and never felt good about myself. I thought being in a relationship would fix that. So, I dated the first woman who showed up, despite being only โkind ofโ attracted to her. Big mistake. Donโt get me wrong. The first few weeks and months of being with her were pretty good. But soon enough, the relationship became toxic and I ended up feeling a lot worse. In this post, I want to share with you a couple of things I did to change, including the best tips on how to find the right woman. โWithout a Code of Conduct you are a chameleon of a manโ โ Bruce Bryans. And thatโs exactly who I was. I would never admit at the time but I was a man who โchanged colorsโ, hoping that people would like me. And I, very rarely, if ever, stood up for myself or spoke my mind. Thatโs until I stumbled on a book by Bruce Bryans called What Women Want In A Man. This book contains a ton of useful and practical information. What really resonated with me is the part about why a man should have a Code of Conduct to live his life by.
Within six months of writing my Code of Conduct and living it every day, I found myself being the man I always wanted to be. When it came to the women I liked, I stopped putting them on a pedestal and didnโt feel the need to impress them or get them to like me. In fact, it was the complete opposite; women were trying to impress me and often made the first move.
The List
If you donโt define what it is you want by narrowing down your options, youโll always get what it is you donโt really want. When it comes to attracting the right woman, sheโll never show up on your radar because youโll have no idea what she really looks like or how she behaves โ Bruce Bryans
I dated several very attractive women but none of them was the right fit for me. It was like having a high paying executive job with a swanky office view but never enjoyed it because youโre always in a meeting or buried neck deep in deadlines. I asked myself: What do I really want in a woman and a relationship? I soon figured out that if I was to attract the right woman, I had to know what she looked like, how she behaved, her age, hobbies and interests, values, beliefs, and so on. This is where writing my List helped.
ย I drew a line down a sheet of paper. On one side I wrote what I wanted. On the other side, I wrote all the things I didnโt want or that were negotiable. I looked at my list every day until it got to the point where I knew exactly what she looked like and who she was. It might sound corny but I would imagine what it felt like to hang out with her, kiss her, make love to her, and wake up next to her.
Got Out Of My Comfort Zone
I knew having a list was pointless if I won't be working my ass off, get out of my comfort zone, and do new and exciting things. So, I wrote another listโ a list of activities, interests, and hobbies Iโve always wanted to do but had been making excuses not to. Once I did that, I wrote a promise to myself that Iโd make time to do these activities and start creating a compelling life and lifestyle for myself. One of those interests was going to the Farmerโs Market every Sunday. Iโm a massive fan of โStreet Foodโ and enjoy browsing the many interesting and sometimes quirky stalls. It was at a bookstall that she walked into my life and Iโll never forget it. I completed my purchase of books, turned around to leave, and bumped into her, although I argue to this day, she bumped into me. Anyway, my books went flying everywhere. โHey, howโs things?โ I said to her as if I already knew who she was, which of course I did. Her response was similar, โNot bad, thanks. How are you? By the way, I love Robert Frost.โ That night we met up for drinks and have been together ever since.
