Where does a man's fear of a woman come from?4
The most common question asked by any psychologist’s visitors is “Where do I get this fear?” And if specialists could find out this after five minutes of a session, then treating patients would become much easier. All fears are buried deep inside a person and do not want to show their roots. Most often, these are childhood traumas, shortcomings in upbringing or other negative factors that influenced the formation of consciousness.
- Tyrant Mother
A few words have already been said about this above, but it’s better to explain. Women who behaved inappropriately with their sons, showing their superiority, negatively influenced the child’s psyche. Already from childhood, a connection arose between women and violence, and even then the prerequisites for future fear appeared.
- Absence of father
The other side of upbringing lies in the absence of a man’s word. Even if the mother in such a man’s life was the most caring and loving, she may not have been able to instill in her son that masculine part of his character that is responsible for communicating with women. The good thing about a full-fledged family is that the father shows by example how to behave with women, and the mother with men. If one of the components disappears, then parenting will be difficult.
- Old grievances
Sometimes problems do not come in childhood, but as adulthood progresses. A girl who seriously hurt, broke her heart, or left without saying goodbye could easily leave a mark on her heart and become the cause of a developing phobia. A man may be afraid to step on the same rake, to be deceived and to feel those unpleasant feelings again.
- Lack of communication with girls
If a man has been surrounded by only guys since childhood and has virtually no contact with the opposite sex, some difficulties in further communication or barriers may arise that will prevent establishing contact. An example could be classes where only boys study, or military institutions, where from an early age they are isolated from external manifestations, including communication with girls.
The nature of men's fears and complexes
Any fears have deep subconscious origins. Human relationships are based on the functions of receiving and giving, between which there must be a balance. When a person is afraid of giving or receiving, a conflict occurs in the balance of the natural mechanism.
Men's nature is to give. However, if a man avoids developing relationships and is afraid of falling in love, it means that he has internal prohibitions at work on an unconscious level.

What questions should you ask your interlocutor to make him fall in love with you?
The male psyche is designed in such a way that drastic transformations lead to negative experiences or stress. Some guys are committed to tradition, decency and honesty, but they cannot always adapt to change. Such people value modesty, complaisance, and self-respect in women. When expectations and reality do not coincide, an unconscious conflict appears that destroys internal values.
Also sources of unconscious fears or complexes can be:
- negative previous experience;
- desire for leadership;
- fears of failure;
- children's complexes leading to an ambivalent attitude towards sexual contact;
- lack of communication skills with women, which are developed in childhood;
- fast pace of life, causing discomfort or destroying life values;
- fear of being deceived.
Condemnation of others
“She’s a mother of three children, it’s time to calm down, and not run around with men!” - Many potential brides are so worried about public opinion that they do not dare to challenge it.

Fears of modern men. Why are they afraid to get married?
What to do. Ignore stupid and envious people. Let them think what they want, you can’t please everyone. But the opinion of children is really important. If a suitable candidate appears on the horizon, try to carefully introduce him into your family. Make it clear to the children that he does not pretend to be their dad and do not in any way interfere with meetings with their real father. Let your lover try to become a friend to your kids - then there will be less jealousy towards the “newcomer”. And don’t be tormented by feelings of guilt: the children will soon grow up and start families. And who will you be left with if you give up on women’s happiness?
Fear of new relationships
4. They constantly change their position.
Such a person may be sweet and charming from the beginning, but once he wins you over, he may disappear
.
They like the chase, but not the "prey", and the more serious the relationship becomes, the less interested they become.
5. You haven't met their friends, family members or work colleagues.
People who are afraid of relationships organize their lives. The more close people you know, the closer you will be to them, and for them this is dangerous.
6. They are irresponsible.
Such people have difficulty making commitments not only in relationships. They may be constantly late
, because they don’t want to be in a certain place at a certain time.
The same can happen with finances. They may forget to pay bills
until they receive a threatening letter.
If their life seems chaotic, there could be the following reasons.
How to get rid of fear?5
A man is afraid of a woman - what to do about it now? It’s good if a man understands this and is actively looking for a solution to his problem. Oddly enough, awareness of the problem is already half of solving it.
If the matter is that a man is in love, ardent and hot feelings that arose quite recently, then the good old advice “time heals” is more relevant than ever. Falling in love always ends - it develops into love or fades away as quickly as it appeared.
It’s really hard to think adequately when you’re in love because of the excess of hormones and the “glued” rose-colored glasses. You just have to trust your feelings, trust the woman, try to get to know her better and let her into your world.
You can directly tell her about your inconveniences; many will perceive this as sweet frankness and will support her in every possible way. You can try to keep your distance and spend a little less time together than you would like, then the feeling of your own independence will remain, and the money in your pockets will remain safe.
If the fear of women is associated with one’s own dissatisfaction, with a passive lifestyle and lack of desire to develop, then the work ahead is enormous. To get rid of this fear, you will have to forget about relationships and plunge into working on yourself. You need to find areas of life that you are not happy with and begin to correct it. Change jobs, move away from your parents or go to the gym. The fear of strong and successful women is associated with one’s own failure and dissatisfaction, so the surest path is the path of finding oneself.
Whatever the fear, no matter how much one wants to hide in a dark corner and blame women for all sins, the matter always lies in the person, in his head and the cockroaches that live there. Sometimes it will be useful to dig deeper and find the root causes of this phobia in order to once and for all stop being afraid of women and start living with them in harmony and understanding.
“I’m not the same as when I was young”
This fear usually haunts women aged 40+. They often do not dare to have a serious relationship, fearing to disappoint their loved one: “I’m not twenty anymore: the skin is not the same, the body is not the same - folds at the waist, cellulite... No, he will definitely leave me!”
What to do. Get rid of complexes. If a man likes you, be sure that he likes you along with wrinkles and cellulite (if any - insecure individuals see flaws even where there are none). A man loves a woman as a whole - her image, her smile, her smell, and not individual parts of the body.
Looking for the middle. Why do women need feelings, and men need bed?

Oh, these men... Millions of women are tormented by thoughts of “what does he think of me?”, “Does he like me?” If each of these had the courage to come up and directly ask this of the object of their sympathies, then the world would turn upside down and the apocalypse would break out. But the end of the world would come even if every man began to openly talk about his feelings.
It just so happens that representatives of the stronger sex consider the manifestation of emotions to be a weakness (remember the phrase “men don’t cry”), so they hide all their experiences deep within themselves.

And if you inadvertently mention that you love three-day stubble, then wait, soon he will have a stubble on his chin. And it doesn’t matter whether this vegetation suits him or not. A man will say goodbye to the principle “the first thing that comes out of the closet is what I’ll wear” and will begin to follow fashion.

If you like a person, but you don’t want to turn into a spy and, instead of pleasant conversations, look at him under a magnifying glass, noticing every breath, glance, hint, gesture - relax and trust your inner instinct.
Women's intuition is a powerful thing, inexplicable even by science. You will feel that you are not indifferent to this person, and without any prompting. But men can’t do that. Out of envy, the women were called witches.
The most popular question lately is: “why are men so indecisive lately?”
Let's be honest, in our time of feminism and the total struggle for gender equality, men have relaxed. Women want to appear strong and independent, and the stronger sex gives them this opportunity. Indeed, a modern girl does not ask for help, we give everything ourselves - where can a man prove himself? So ladies, cut yourself some slack. And then the men’s determination will return.
In the theory of family life, it is accepted that a married man should be in love only with his wife. In practice it often turns out
otherwise. How can you understand that a married man is in love? firstly, although he is married, he is no different from his brothers, which means that the above signs are also inherent in his behavior. Secondly, a married man will think a hundred times before looking for a relationship on the side.
But if someone’s legal spouse still falls in love with you, then he will become the most cautious person on the planet. And who definitely won’t know about his feelings is his wife. Stirlitz was less encrypted than married men who want to save their family and start a relationship on the side. Think about it, do you agree to play the role of second violin in this man’s orchestra? Often loving men hide the fact that they have a family. You don't have to be Sherlock Holmes to figure this out. Your meetings will take place at the same time, and in places where his friends will not meet you. Wives often control their husbands, and if he is often absent “to call on work,” this is a reason to think about it.
First, think about whether you like this man, whether you are ready for a relationship with him, if so, go ahead with full sails! But don’t play the impregnable snow queen for too long. Men, of course, are conquerors, but emotional return is also needed. If you enjoy courtship
- let him know about it. How? It’s not for us to tell you, you yourself know about women’s tricks. Be yourself, because it was the real you that he fell in love with.
Why guys avoid bossy women
Young people are afraid of a woman who displays a managerial character. Girls with strong leadership qualities scare off some guys with their independence, desire for management and control. Such young ladies are often brought up in an atmosphere where the mother plays the main role in the family.
The reluctance of the stronger sex to become dependent on a woman is caused by a factor that hurts male pride. Many guys do not want to become objects that unquestioningly follow direct instructions, since they consider submission to women a manifestation of weakness of character.
The main reasons for fear of relationships
The main reasons for a man in love to avoid relationships lie in negative attitudes and stereotypical beliefs.

Causes, types and consequences of attachment
Fear of responsibility
At first glance, the man seems calm and confident. He actively communicates with girls, but when a conversation begins about a serious relationship, he tries to avoid continuing it.
Such a guy is convinced that he can do without the presence of the mistress in the house, and, in his opinion, it is better to find communication and sex on the side. He is sure that family relationships will become a terrible torture for him, so he perceives and associates love with a series of problems.
Low self-esteem
A man may be mistaken in thinking that he is not worthy of a girl because of his low income, inexpressive appearance, or outstanding abilities. Even if this contradicts the actual facts, many guys are critical of themselves, underestimating their capabilities.
Low self-esteem affects the level of priorities, leads to instability in relationships, and indifference to the partner.
Reasons why a man is afraid of a woman
Loved ones have mercy and kiss...
It happens that an acquaintance has already begun between a man and a woman, and even some kind of romance, but it does not develop. The man stops taking initiative, although it is clear that he is also in love with you.
What is the reason for this behavior?
- You maintain the image of a beautiful diva, with whom he feels less confident.
Excessive tension created on a date prevents him from relaxing and starting to take decisive steps. Try to appear in a new look, as the girl next door. - It seems to him that you do not reciprocate, as you continue to communicate with a large number of men.
He is afraid that he will not be able to start a family with such a girl. Let him know that the feelings are mutual, and the time spent with him is important to you. - You act too independent and he doubts his ability to take care of you.
A man wants to become a protector and support for a woman, and if he is deprived of this opportunity, then he begins to doubt his masculinity next to you. - Your life is filled with too intense social events and work.
Not all men will accept that a woman devotes little time to them. It’s worth thinking about whether you can change for the sake of your loved one, or whether you should break up so as not to hurt each other. - You are deprived of your own interests, and begin to interfere too much in a man’s life, or show excessive concern for him.
It is important for a man to be free in his choice, even if this choice is to be with his beloved. Men love to take care of themselves, demonstrating their strength and skills.Stop calling him, asking if he has eaten and what shirt he is wearing, because he is no longer a child. Let him take care of you himself.
When a man takes care of you and helps you with something, don’t forget to admire how well and skillfully he does it.
Mention that you could never have done it on your own. Do this sincerely, and you will feel how the man is transformed. He will feel like a hero in the eyes of his beloved and will be ready to perform other feats for her.
