If you don't get along with women, then you may not be gentlemanly enough with them. The following tips will help you win women's hearts.

Who are gentlemen

The word "gentleman" is derived from the French gentil ("noble") and the English man ("man"). A gentleman is a man of noble birth. 19th century British statesman Robert Peel said it took three generations to create a gentleman.

In the Middle Ages, gentlemen were called members of the English untitled nobility - gentry. This social stratum occupied an intermediate position between peers and yeomen, that is, they are pretty good noble families, but still not sufficiently titled.

In the Victorian era, the concept of "gentleman" was somewhat transformed and at the same time finally formed. So they began to call a person who has the opportunity not to work, lives on income from his property or from inheritance, while being superbly educated, brought up and noble.

For example, here is an excerpt from the Gentleman's Code of 1875:

A gentleman with real intelligence and culture is usually modest. He may feel, being in the company of ordinary people, that he is intellectually superior to those around him, but he will not seek to show his superiority over them. He will not seek to touch upon topics in which the interlocutors do not have the appropriate knowledge. Everything he says is always marked by courtesy and respect for the feelings and opinions of others.

This male image entered popular culture as the image of an elegant man who strictly follows the rules of etiquette. One has only to say "gentleman", and the brain is already drawing a man in an impeccable suit with exquisite manners.

But in the 21st century, a gentleman is determined not only (and not so much) by his appearance. In the modern public consciousness, this proud title is attributed to men who are gallant and extremely respectful towards women. Emancipation is emancipation, and deep down every girl wants to be treated like a lady.

So include a sense of humor and read about how to become a gentleman. Be sure to pass everything written through the prism of self-irony, but do not forget that in every joke there is only a fraction of a joke.

How to Become a Gentleman

1. Be faithful

A true gentleman is faithful to his beloved. He just doesn't notice other women around him.

2. Admit When Wrong

And when you are right … Sometimes it is better to remain silent, even when the truth is on your side.

3. Speak pleasantries

Say nice things to the woman if you really think so. But do not flatter just because the girl wants to hear something pleasant.

4. Don't show temper when she cries

Just be silent and hold her hand. Make her feel safe.

5. Trust her

Forget about the past. Trust your beloved, even if you have faced betrayal in the past.

6. Never Compare

The worst thing you can do is compare her to another girl. Worse than comparing her to her ex.

7. Don't promise the impossible

Do not give your word if you are not 200% sure that you will keep it. Yes, not 100%, but 200%.

8. Write to her more often

Banal messages like "Good morning honey!" or "Good night, honey!" mean more to her than you think. Write to her every day, and not just in a fit of feelings.

9. Spend time with her

Spending time with your girlfriend is great, but don't discount your friends.

10. Be a knight

You can leave the horse at home, but do not forget to hold her hand when she gets out of the car, open the door, serve a coat, and so on.

11. Don't lie

A real gentleman never lies to his girlfriend. Okay, sometimes he lies. But only in such trifles as "Honey, this is only the second glass" (in fact, the fifth).

12. Be gallant

Show courtesy and respect for her and what is dear to her.

13. Be a good listener

Humble yourself, you have to listen to her. All the time. You will talk with your friends, and if you have a girlfriend, listen.

14. Do romantic things

A simple note "I love you!" or an unexpected call in the middle of the day is already romantic. Do not neglect such little things.

15. Never ask her about her ex

This is bad form.

16. Don't be rude

A gentleman will never allow himself to be abusive.

17. Never blame her for your mistakes

And even in her mistakes.

18. Laugh at her jokes

Just think, unfunny!

19. Fight her pillows

Just do not go into a rage, calculate your strength.

20. Don't talk about her behind her back

This is a bad idea, friends.

21. Dress is good

Just a great dress if she's wearing it and she's next to you.

22. Respond to her messages

Otherwise, you risk saying goodbye to your phone.

23. Never ask her to buy you anything

It's just not worthy.

24. Do not try to forget about her birthday

Do I need to say what this is fraught with? Exactly!

25. Pay at the restaurant

Even if her three friends dined with you.

26. Maintain your hygiene

Cut your nails, wash your hair, be neat. Maintaining body hygiene is essential.

27. Don't force her

Even if you really want to watch football and drink beer with your girlfriend, do not insist when you hear a refusal. Want to go shopping? Let him go shopping!

28. Give her your jacket if she's frozen

It is clear that you are also cold, but what can you do.

29. Don't suggest weird ways to fall asleep

Do not advise her to take a couple of sips of whiskey, it is better to read something to her.

30. Give her flowers

Every day, of course, is too much. But from time to time - why not?

31. Notice the little things

"You have a new hairstyle!" - believe me, for her this is by no means a trifle.

32. Wear her things

This is part of the knightly duty.

33. Compliment

As much as you can. And even a little more.

34. Give her happiness

Do everything in your power to keep her happy. (Tip: Sometimes shopping can help.)

35. No slaps in the face

Even as a joke.

36. Keep quiet if she slaps you

You probably deserve it.

Show your love with your actions. Every day. Whenever and wherever you are.

Never ever.

39. Expect Less

And get more. This law always works.

40. Be spontaneous

Women hate boring guys.

41. Be responsive

Strive to help at all costs.

And you will see her smile in return. Cry only if no one sees.

43. Appreciate her

She's the best thing that ever happened to you. And this is just one of the reasons to appreciate it.

44. Hug her from behind

A hug from the front signifies desire; a hug from the back signifies that you trust her. Women like both.

Don't underestimate the seductive power of good writing and speaking. App-rr-r!

You never know what it might turn out to be.
