Day 3: In Tune With My Feminine Self

 


Many relationship coaches and self-help tips talks about how women can really be more attractive to men is to be more feminine. This is one thing that we, single mothers and even some very successful women sometimes tend to forget. Being feminine.

 

I tried an experiment today to see if every little thing that I learned from all those ‘how to be more attractive to men’ or “how to attract men”  tips are really true. So today, the club I am involved in held its monthly meeting. Most of the members of this club are men. That is why today is a good day to test this theory or fact that most experts claim to attract men.

 

I wore something different than I normally wear during meetings.  But, I did not wear a skirt or a dress as it would be too obvious that I am trying to attract something. I wore a high-heeled open-toe shoe with jeggings.  I guess the shoe helped a lot to accentuate my feminine body features.

 

Wearing heels can limit my activity, so it means that i will be needing help from anyone as opposed to wearing comfy shoes, which makes me a super woman who can do just about anything.

 

The first thing I noticed was that the men were friendlier than usual. They smiled a lot when they talk to me.  Normally, they are like this all the time when they talk to me, because I have something important to them, their funds. But today, they were extra friendly with wider smiles.

 

One said smiling mischievously, “Hey, for quite some time, I forgot that you were a woman.” I replied,” Yeah, me too.” That send everyone laughing.

 

So yes, it really is true. Men are more attracted to “femininity”.

 

Being a single mom, I have to be more in tune with my “masculinity” to be tough, and firm.  I’ve earned for a living ever since I was 16, and I guess, being in a very competitive environment, I avoided being perceived as a weakling, or else, people would get at me, abuse me and step on me.  And that is why, I have mastered to lessen my being feminine and be more masculine.

One thing I’ve learned though is that being feminine is not a sign of weakness. Yes, it attracts men, not because they think that being feminine is the weaker sex that they can manipulate, abuse or use. I realized this now. Men are attracted to the femininity just because it shows how we are different from them. They like that we are soft on the inside, fragile and special. Men have that natural instinct of being protective and they want to be needed. In short, men are attracted more to women who needs them.

 

So, go on. Be your feminine self. Learn how to switch from being masculine to feminine depending on what the situation calls for. It won’t hurt to show a bit of vulnerability sometimes. In fact, it can be attractive. You just might enjoy the change. I know I did.

 

XoXo,

Dream Boards and Manifesting The Things I Want.

Today, I stumbled upon a blog that inspired me a lot. I was just going through some stuff on Facebook, when I saw a link to her blog, Thoughts. Stories.Life.  Owned by @Sarah Centrella, a woman who have also journeyed through so much to achieve the things she is enjoying right now, I was so surprised at the uncanny resemblance of what she went through with my own experiences. And we also have blog posts that are somewhat similar in topics. I swear this is the first time I read her blogs.Goosebumps! A screen capture of Thoughts. Stories.Life On the brighter side, I am happy to know that someone out there shared almost the same experiences as I did. Makes me feel a little less lonelier. I think I am on the right track. What I liked about her blog is that she is a living proof of The Secret's Law of Attraction, which I have been mentioning in my previous posts. Being visual also about your dreams helps a lot to manifest your dreams. I have attended seminars and team buildi...

How Depression Affects Us

I have always been open with my experience with depression and this blog has been my medium for sending out information about this disease that cripples many. I still have my bouts but the good thing is I already know what triggers it so as much as possible, I try to stay away from those that triggers it. Recently, an executive from Healthline, Maggie Danhakl, Assistant Marketing Manager of Healthline.com saw my posts about depression on this blog and contacted me and informed me about a newly-released infographic on how to detect depression. The infographic is interactive and you can click on a particular part of the body and how depression affects it. I particularly liked that infographic because it gives a broader explanation of how the disease will alter the regular or normal functions of a certain part of your body.

A Time to List : A New Year's Post

It’s that time again for making new goals, resolutions, intentions or whatever you call it. I am not in the habit of making one for the sake of sticking to some sort of a plan, but I make it for the sake of making one, because it’s New Year’s.  And because I have this notion that resolutions are made to be broken. Or am I the only one who really had a hard time following through. pixabay.com A quick throwback to a year ago, I blogged about my essentials for 2014. And…well, what’d you know, I was able to fulfill at least about half of that. I was able to travel (for free although locally), I was able to continue writing, through this blog, and some others that I maintain, learn a skill /gain knowledge (getting ADWORDS Certified by Google), attended the most number of seminars and workshops I ever did in my entire life, and I was able to earn more through freelance projects and also with my ongoing online job. The thing that I wasn’t able to do though is.. to find...
