Ladies, if you want respect from your man, then don’t do these 5 things

Everyone loves respect. It is excruciating and frustrating when you get disrespected by someone you adore. It’s something you have to earn. Women want respect from their men since it improves self-esteem and boosts personalities. If you’re in a relationship with a man and suspect he has no honor for you, here are 5 Things You Shouldn’t Do If You Want A Man’s Respect.

1. Don’t Put Anyone First!

There are so many women who put men above them for no reason. Why shouldn’t you come first? Why are you always last in the order of importance to your partner or everyone else?

Ask your friends and they’ll tell you hundreds of reasons to put other people above themselves: “I want to be nice”, “It’s great to be liked”, “Putting myself first is selfish”, “I’m a who cares about the feelings of others”, “I hate to see other people suffering”, etc., etc., etc.

Do you recognize any of these excuses? None of these are reasons why you shouldn’t put yourself first. The people you’re putting yourself above yourself—why don’t they feel as guilty as you think they would?

Do you really think they’re not cool, just like you would be if you put yourself first?

2. Don’t Cry If You Want To Be Respected.

This is a trait that shows weakness in the eyes of men.

Our culture still insists that only men should be strong, and weak men are seen as effeminate. Crying is associated with weakness, except in some cases.

If the guy in a movie tries to save his girlfriend and she dies in his arms, then he’s allowed to shed a few tears.

If the guy in a movie hears his boss screaming, no one expects him to burst into tears.

Don’t cry, or at least don’t cry in front of men, as this is a sign of weakness. Tears won’t earn you more respect.

3. Don’t Make Excuses for Your Mistakes.

You don’t have to be proud of your mistakes, but you do have to own them.

You probably won’t proudly wear your mistakes the way you’re proud of your accomplishments, but you can certainly own up to your mistakes with integrity and honor.

4. Stop Comparing Yourself To Other Women.

Women do this all the time.

People do it with celebrities and with friends.

Comparing yourself to other people is a sign of unconscious insecurity, as is trying to want to be superior to other people.

Some people won’t understand why you compare yourself to others, but those who do will see what a pathetic, insecure child you are and you’ll lose all respect that person had for you.

If you can’t admire your own qualities, you don’t deserve respect.

5. Stop Doing Everything Your Man Says.

He is not the king of the world.

He might get grumpy and try to punish you if you don’t obey his orders, but he does it because he doesn’t respect you.

Do whatever he says and you’re not giving him any reason to respect you.
