Women are attracted to men who take charge. Men who are decisive excite women. Women want men who have opinions.

I don’t care if it’s the most independent, self-sufficient woman you’ve ever met in your life, you still need to assert your alpha male qualities.

This doesn’t mean you discount what she wants or turn into a bossy, insensitive jerk. What it does mean is you consider her desires, wants, and opinions, but that you aren’t afraid to take the lead.

Even the most successful, strong women are attracted to men who exhibit these qualities.

However, they are not attracted to men who are supplicating, indecisive, and wimpy. So, here are three simple tips to show women that you are a man who knows how to take the reins and lead.

Five Ways to Assert Your Alpha Male Side Tip #1

1. Place the order at a restaurant. Here’s how to do it with class. Before the waiter arrives to actually take your order, tell your date you’d like to order for her and then ask her if she has any strong food dislikes. If she says no, then ask her if she is craving anything in particular. If she says no, then go ahead and order what you think she would like best. The reason this works and the reason women like this, is because most men are afraid to take charge. Or if they do this, they do so disregarding the woman’s preferences. Keep in mind if she objects when you say you’d like to order for her, you can ask her if there was something she already had her heart set on. If so, then order that for her. If it is done right, women – especially women who are used to be in charge – will find this attractive. Your confidence is what ultimately shines through. Especially if you do it in a very respectful manner.

2. Don’t ask her where she wants to go on the date, but take charge and show her how creative you are. You can do this by planning a date that is outside the norm. Usually this means something that doesn’t involve a lot of money. For instance, you might want to pack a picnic lunch and take her to a moonlit beach where you can feed her gourmet foods and drink champagne on a big fur blanket.

3. Surprise her by taking charge of everything involved in your date together. For instance, you might set up a mock restaurant in your place. As soon as she walks in the door, tell her to go change into what is in the bedroom. Have a stunning dress and heels for her. Then when she comes back, hand her a glass of wine and make her sit in your most comfortable chair. Play soft music, dim the lights, and cater to her, preparing her dinner and even feeding her, if that suits you.

This one is a little surprising because even though you are waiting on her, which seems a little supplicating, you are also in charge of every move. Boss her around a little, but always have it be to her benefit. For instance, you might say, “lie down on the couch.” Without explanation and then give her a foot massage. Whatever you do, have a commanding tone and be bossy. She’ll love it.
