Never teach a man how to be your man. don't keep reminding him to make time for you. don't ask him to bring you flowers or plan dates. if you have to beg for effort, then it's not love, it's convincing. the right man won't need instructions. he will naturally do the things that make you feel loved. he will put in effort because he wants to, not because you asked him to. when a man genuinely loves you, he doesn't need reminders.
