How to Maintain a Relationship with a Single Man

As a single lady, you need a matured mind to beat the antics of the opposite sex, especially when it comes to the issue of relationship. Men can be tricky - as they may profess their love for a lady, only to take advantage of her.

You can maintain a relationship with a single man without creating a chance for him to ridicule you.

1. Don't appear cheap: You should not present yourself so cheaply all in the quest to get married quickly. When a man sees how desperate you are to settling down, he will want to take advantage of you. Continue...

2. Don't be naive: You must be reasonable in every matter that concerns you. Don't give in quickly to empty promises nor get carried away by the love he showers on you at first. True love stories were always rough at first, but became sweeter when time passed.

3. Don't be too open: Openness in a relationship is good, but being too open at the early stage could be detrimental. Be well settled in the friendship before letting some intimate secrets out.

4. Be honest: In all your dealings with a man - whether married or single, you must be honest. There is no greater virtue than honesty. And a lady who is prided as honest, has a 'good name'. When you are dishonest with a man, he tends to take everything about you unseriously.

5. Be prudent: Prudence is another great virtue and it is scarcely seen amongst women. If you want to maintain a man, be prudent and help him cut expense. This will make him view you as an immaterial lady.

6. Ensure you enforce the right judgment in making a good friend, lest you are influencednegatively and turned away from good manners.
