1. Praise him with unexpected words.
If you're a muscular man, you'll likely be constantly bombarded with compliments like "Wow, so strong!" or "So manly!" Hearing these words has become commonplace for him, offering no novelty or satisfaction. If you use the same generic phrases, you'll quickly be forgotten and won't attract his attention at all.
If you praise a man like this, saying something contrasting like, "I never knew you had such a gentle side," it's a new experience for him, and he'll easily turn his attention to you. For example, if a guy looks very delicate, that delicateness might be his insecurity. If he does something decisive during your time together, you should seize the opportunity to praise him, saying things like, "You're actually quite manly."
Receiving such praise from a woman gives a man an unprecedented sense of excitement and immense satisfaction to his self-esteem. You will leave a deep impression on his mind.
2. Compare him to the people he admires.
If you compliment a man on being like his idol, he'd be so happy he'd practically snot bubble from his nose. For example, if his idol is Steve Jobs of Apple, you could use the following compliments.
"By the way, I think your current lifestyle is a lot like Steve Jobs's during his early days of struggle." This is guaranteed to hit a nerve.
The person you admire is, in other words, the person you aspire to be. That person's way of life becomes your model, guiding your thoughts and actions. If you praise someone in this way, a man will constantly feel a surge of confidence and satisfaction, feeling that others have recognized his efforts, and he will endlessly savor that sense of accomplishment.
3. Conveying words of praise from others
Men care a lot about how others perceive them. Hearing words of respect and trust from those around them makes them very happy. Praise boosts their self-confidence, motivating them to strive for excellence. Therefore, if you hear praise for him, be sure to tell him the whole story. This doesn't mean you should exaggerate; men need constant encouragement and reassurance.
The comments from those around a man, such as "Everyone says you're handsome" and "They heard about your story and think you're amazing and capable," have a significant impact on his growth.
4. Don't forget to praise a man when he encounters failure.
You might wonder why you would praise him when he fails, thinking it's pointless. But actually, this is when his defenses are weakest. He wants someone to acknowledge his previous efforts, and even if he has failed, he craves even the smallest bit of recognition.
When he is most disappointed and helpless, you must repeatedly tell him that although what he did before did not achieve the expected results, he has tried his best and deserves respect. No one has a smooth journey on the road to pursuing their dreams.
Therefore, timely praise and encouragement will allow your man to rely on you when he's feeling down. When this reliance becomes a habit, he will truly be inseparable from you. No competitor will be able to find an opening to destroy your love.
