RELATED: 9 Men Reveal The Food Dealbreakers That Make Them Run Away From A First Date I speak with men every single day, and I have the inside scoop about how men really feel. Men are not intimidated by your success, ladies. They love that you are successful. In fact, they admire your ambition and accomplishments. What they don’t like is the masculine energy you bring to the dinner table. What men want most is a feminine, nurturing, kind, caring, easy-going woman. They don’t care what college you graduated from. They don’t care how many degrees you have, how much money you make, or if you can change your own tire. I often stump my coaching clients with the following question: “What is the number one thing that will make a man want to see you again?” The answer: “It’s the way you make him feel.” Men are simple and straightforward. What they want most of all is to feel like MEN. Inside every female top-notch attorney, investment banker and CEO is a soft gooey center — you’re a woman, after all. So get in touch with your softer side, and bring your feminine energy to the dinner table.

8. Smile!
9. Be appreciative. Thank him for choosing such an excellent restaurant and for planning a wonderful evening. Let him know he did a good job and that you had a really nice time.
10. Don’t send a thank you email, text, or call him after the date. Let him pursue you. If he’s interested, you’ll hear from him – and soon.
We, modern women, are used to taking charge. It takes practice and a conscious effort to stop, take a step back and let a man take care of us for a change. At first, it may feel strange, but after a while, it will feel good. RELATED: 8 Signs Your Relationship Is Totally Solid And Built-To-Last Men are not intimidated by your success.
