Some guys will never take you seriously, and it has nothing to do with you. There is simply a type of personality that is incapable of showing respect for anyone, and you should not waste your time trying to get this snobby guy to take you seriously.
However, if you have a nice guy on your hands, this is how you can make sure you don’t give off the bad vibe and always keep his respect.
Don’t get their attention the wrong way
If you’re trying to let a guy know you’re interested, don’t do it in a way that cheapens you.
It can work to get her attention if you wear skimpy clothes and talk outright about sex, but this type of behavior won’t earn her respect in the long run.
keep your mystery
Instead of throwing your sexuality out in the open, choose to keep your mystery and thus retain a large part of your power.
Mystery is a powerful thing, and not giving an immediate glimpse of who you are as a sexual being is not only part of being a lady, but it’s a key part of keeping his interest and making sure he takes you seriously.
Mental categories of a boy
It’s not really by choice, but for some reason men tend to automatically register the women they meet and place them in a very different “category” in their brains.
This happens very quickly and your category can rarely be reversed, so make sure your first impression is a quality one and stick with it. A guy will put you into categories possibly without even knowing it; in your head you will be filed under “potential sex partner”, “buddy”, or “potential girlfriend material”.
Don’t tolerate disrespect
People who are highly respected and take themselves very seriously often do this by simply demanding the respect they deserve.
If your guy acts like he doesn’t take you seriously, put him in his place. Stand up for yourself and be assertive. Acting weak or remorseful and/or trying to change aspects of yourself to meet his ideals is exactly the kind of behavior that will ensure he doesn’t take you seriously.
You don’t need me to take you seriously
It’s important to remember that you’ll be viewed with more reverence and taken seriously by more people in the long run (and not just your crush), if you make an unspoken fact that you don’t need to be taken seriously.
You really don’t need anyone to take you seriously. What matters is how you see yourself. When you start living with this attitude and your sense of self blossoms, that’s what you won’t have to worry about anymore.
Judge him by the same stern standards
You can take a cue from the demanding male mindset and judge him by the same categories and standards. Just because you’re single and in love with this guy doesn’t mean you have to dismiss his negative traits and settle.
It’s healthier for you and beneficial in the long run to be very picky with all potential partners, so look at him the way he’s likely to look at women, and be tough in your judgments if your instincts guide you to do so.
You can’t control the conclusion you come to
Remember that ultimately there will always be people who want to put you down and disrespect you. If you’ve been on your best behavior and demanded respect, then there’s nothing else you can do.
We only have some control over the way other people see us. The key is to be the same person and not let it get to you.
