Ladies, we have a significant amount of influence over men that may be underestimated. Arguably, a man’s sense of self-worth is larger and, more importantly, more fragile than that of his female counterpart. As women, even the smallest action we take can greatly diminish his self-esteem. Are you interested in learning ways to undermine his sense of importance? Let’s proceed with it.

Flirt with other guys in front of him

If he witnesses you engaging in flirtatious behavior with another man, his self-esteem will undoubtedly suffer because he cannot tolerate the fact that you are capable of having feelings for someone else or flirting with them, especially in his presence! The situation can become much worse if the man you are flirting with reciprocates the flirtation. My friend, he may even choose to end the relationship.

Compare him to your ex

If you are in a romantic relationship with a man whom you adore and who also reciprocates your love, it is crucial to be cautious and attentive to the words you utter. It is important to avoid any mention or comparison of your former partner to your current one, regardless of the context being positive or negative. Even if it happens unintentionally during an argument, your man will find it difficult to forget. Even after resolving the issue, the idea of you comparing him to your ex and still thinking about him will continue to haunt him and resurface. I assure you, it will become a recurring issue.

Embarrass him in front of his friends

This is possibly the most unfavorable action you can take against a man. He wants his friends to respect him, and if you embarrass him in front of them, it will undoubtedly harm his self-worth. I can assure you that your partner will be so angry that he may not speak to you for days, if at all. Do you all remember the situation in the TV show The Game when Melanie humiliated Derwin, and he got back at her by making her feel the same way? I sympathized with her, but I can somewhat understand his behavior. Recall how his fellow teammates teased him? No man wants to endure such mockery.

Laugh during sex

Laughing during sex can be a sensitive topic for men. It may make them feel insecure or question their performance. It’s similar to rolling your eyes or faking moans, which can lead to misunderstandings. They might wonder what the joke is or if they’re doing something wrong. Perhaps they even worry that you’re thinking about something unrelated, like your favorite comedy show.

Tell him he isn’t good in bed

If you are genuinely concerned about not hurting your partner’s feelings, refrain from telling him that he lacks proficiency in the bedroom. This can quickly damage a man’s self-confidence, as they take pride in their ability to excel in that area. Being skilled in intimate matters is highly valued by all men. If you have any reservations about this aspect of your relationship, it is essential to find the best way to communicate with your partner and work together to find a solution.
