16 Little Things To Keep Your Woman Happy So She Doesn’t Have To Ask

So you’re in a relationship and your woman starts nagging. She tells you that you just don’t understand her, and that she really wishes that you would just do more “little things.”
It’s not the big things that make women happy, it’s paying attention to the little details and showing you care that is really meaningful to them. Women are really simple. They don’t need lavish gifts – they need to know you’re thinking about them.
Here are some ideas to get you started doing these “little things” your woman really wants:
1. Rub her feet instead of asking her if she wants you to rub her feet. Make it look like you want to do it.
2. Make her dinner one night instead of having her make you dinner. Don’t ask her if she wants you to make dinner. Make her dinner before she gets home.
3. Open the bottle of wine instead of sitting there on the couch waiting for her to open it. Get up and open it yourself.
4. Light the candle so that she arrives home to a nice environment instead of coming home to the glaring lights of the television and other things.
5. Send her a text in the middle of the day telling her “I miss your smile from this morning” or “Last night was amazing!” or “The conversation we had last night was great.”
6. Send a free ecard in the middle of the day . . . something cute to remind her how much you really care about her.
7. If she’s going on a business trip, offer to drive her to the airport or pick her up to make her life that much easier.
8. Let her have control of the remote control. Don’t monopolize it for a change. Just give it to her and let her actually sit there and enjoying watching one of her shows. Then you can share one of her interests by watching it with her.
9. Offer to iron one of her shirts or take her clothes to the dry cleaner instead of her being your live-in maid.
10. Clean up the bathroom without being asked. Don’t just sit there and ignore the mess around the toilet – Clean it up! Clean up. If you know it drives her crazy to see water splashed all around the sink, dry that area after you use it.
11. If you work out together, offer to train her instead of rushing through your own workout and then not letting her workout at the same time.
12. Take a shower together, then wash her hair, scrub her back and give her a spa treatment. Do this and enjoy it!
13. The next time she gives you a massage, give her a massage the next day. Offer it! Don’t just say you’ll give her a massage . . . do it!
14. Surprise her by making plans. Tell her “We’re going out tonight honey.” You can even just go out for a drink or dinner somewhere. It’s taking the initiative that’s important.
15. Decide on and set aside one night a week as date night. Have a date like when you first started dating.
16. Call her in the middle of the day and just say hello. Don’t wait for her to call you.
It’s very simple to keep women satisfied. It’s not about what you give them financially or what gifts you give them. That’s a cop out. It’s the little things. The guys who make the biggest mistake are the ones who ignore their woman then all of a sudden give them an expensive gift to make up for it. That doesn’t make up for it at all.
Great advice for a woman that you really care about, and who likes this type of domestic and docile man. Some women however, seem to feed off the “bad boy” treatment. Catering to them, to this extreme, seems needy, nerdy, and weak to them, and they will kick you to the curb for a more “manly man”. Sometimes they prefer the strong, independent, man, who doesn’t succumb to their every whim, need, and pampering…It is best to chose a woman for you, who is best for your natural type of personality and disposition. Don’t ever change yourself for a woman, unless you believe it will enhance yourself.
Great tips but there is no way I am giving up control of my remote control…that is where I draw the line…giving that up is like we let them women roll over us and take our manhood away
lol
I’m with Dan. We can watch one of her shows, but I’m still keeping the remote. That said, I got rid of cable, so problem solved there I guess.
Cooking dinner and back rubs happen to be my specialty though. I can do both as good, if not better than what you can pay for, so I do those fairly regularly. I could really use to be better about surprising girls with plans though.
I’ve got a date with a girl I really like on Tuesday, so wish me luck! Not only does she not take my crap when I tease her, but she also does P90X. Gotta love a girl with the will power to make it through plyo!
Bob, I agree with you that some woman prefer the “bad boy” type, but I don’t think David Wygant is suggesting that people cater to woman’s needs at their beck and call. Perhaps maintaining that “bad boy” image while incorporating these subtle suggestions to easily set yourself apart as a real man is the best way to go about attracting any woman you desire.
It Really is doing the little things for my wife that are appreciated the most. Some of the tips you mention would not work,like sending her a text or a free ecard. But preparing her evening meal,and cleaning up after me gets an appreciative “thank you” from her.
It’s also actually ‘listening’ when she tells me about her day, or her thoughts on some issue or problem, that makes her realize that I do actually care!
Thank you David for this fine post!!
what if your man % you are having problem’s but the sex is incredible..I got upaet with my man due to him having an emotional relationship with a childhood friend she’s married and i have been with mine for 15 plus year’s…She talk
s to him about how she disaproves of her man because he likes to wear woman’s underwea bra the whole thing ..should she be telling my man about this>
16 things??? are you kidding me? I can barely remember 3 things. For christ sake. Why are women so damn complicated and expect every guy to do a song a dance number while juggling, breathing fire and doing fractions. Dealing with women can be as cumbersome as a rubiks cube. I just want a simple woman, who cooks, cleans, and give me BJs and in turn I will do whatever three things she wants me to do. KEEP IT TO 3 LADIES!!
Christ Joe, what did your last slave die of?
I love your write-up.it has indeed be a help to my relationship and even my girl is now a happy woman cos she has found favor from your posts.keep it up.
These are all good tips, just don’t make it an everyday thing or they lose their sentiment.
Hahaha Rosie right on! I’m guessing guys need these common sense tips because there are a lot of “Joes” out there. I’m glad I don’t have to deal with men.
Guys it about her first, Girls it’s about him first. Equality is the key to have relationships.
