Do you ever wonder what makes a man comfortable with a woman?
It’s really not as complicated as you may think. There are a few things that, while not the most crucial factors to making a man comfortable with you, are more than enough to do the job.
In this article, I’m going to explore those and offer some advice on how you can use them to make any guy feel more at ease around you.
1) She’s non-judgmental
Here’s the truth:
Most men find it difficult to feel comfortable around a woman they perceive to be judgmental.
You know the type:
The one who’s constantly criticizing other people’s lifestyle choices and trying to tell each and every person how to live their lives, even if they don’t ask for her opinion.
A judgmental woman is often viewed as being insecure, stuck-up, arrogant, or simply bossy. And none of these characteristics make a man comfortable with a woman.
So, instead of judging other people, why not just be yourself?
Being who you are and communicating in a genuine way will make every guy feel like he’s with a more authentic woman. They’ll appreciate it and go out of their way to show you the same respect in turn. And who knows: They might even end up being friends with you.
2) She values his opinion
Another thing that can make a man comfortable with a woman is if he feels like his opinion is valued and respected.
A guy may be cool with you as long as he knows that you value his opinion enough to listen to it and act on it. Don’t be the kind of girl who constantly criticizes him behind his back or sends him subtle digs—if she did that, he’ll definitely feel insecure around her.
On the contrary, if a guy feels like your opinions matter to you, he’ll do everything in his power to make sure they do too.
But remember that most men aren’t going to want to share their feelings with you unless they feel like they can trust you not to judge them and that you’re trying to understand their reasons for feeling the way they do.
Watch your tone. Don’t let your words come out as if you’re scolding him or being mean.
Be gentle and kind with him, and remember that it’s never wise to argue with a man (unless he’s being abusive).
3) He feels like she accepts him for who he is
Every man wants a woman to accept him for who he is, not who he thinks he should be.
He doesn’t want to feel like you’re trying to change him. He wants to feel like you accept the ‘real’ him, with all of his flaws, imperfections, and shortcomings.
It’s not enough for a man to just have a woman who can tolerate him or even learn to like him.
He wants a woman who genuinely loves and accepts him for who he really is…
Want to know the best part?
Not only does this make him feel comfortable around you from the start, but it will also motivate him to be the best version of himself he can possibly be.
In fact, according to a Harvard study, 40% of men who believed that their partners accepted them actually changed for the better when they thought they were being ‘accepted’ by their partners.
So if you really want a guy to change for the better, here’s your chance.
4) She brings out his inner hero
Come on, there’s no guy on Earth who wouldn’t feel more comfortable around a woman who brings out the hero in him.
Let me explain:
There’s a new theory in the relationship world that’s causing quite a stir – it’s called the hero instinct.
Coined by relationship expert James Bauer, this fascinating concept finally explains how men really think and feel in relationships.
And it’s something most women have never even heard of.
According to James Bauer, men don’t actually need a lot to feel content in their relationships. In fact, what they need has nothing to do with sex.
Men have certain innate drivers. And when a woman comes along and triggers them, it causes a powerful response. The result is a man who loves harder, commits wholeheartedly, and truly dedicates himself to the relationship.
So, how can you trigger your man’s hero instinct?
The easiest thing to do is to watch this simple and genuine video by James Bauer.
The truth is, once you understand how the hero instinct works, there’s no telling what heights your relationship can reach.
So if you want to give your man what he truly wants from you, make sure to check out James Bauer’s excellent video. In it, he reveals the exact texts and phrases you can use straight away.

5) She doesn’t play games
Trust me, girls love playing mind games.
But guys don’t have the patience for them—especially in the beginning stages of a relationship.
And even if he does like you, once he’s figured out that you’re playing games and not being authentic with him, he’ll feel more than uncomfortable around you and will eventually lose interest in the whole thing.
For example, when you’re interested in a guy, instead of playing games by giving him ‘the silent treatment or pretending to be really busy and unavailable so he’ll chase after you, why not just go and have a great time together?
If you’re interested in him, why wait for him to ask you out? Don’t play hard-to-get. Just tell him how great the experience would be and ask him to do it already. If he doesn’t want to, then let it go and move on.
6) She doesn’t take life too seriously
You might think that men are like a woman who is caring, sensitive, and interested in other people.
But if you think that way, then you’d be wrong.
Think about it. What would any man want with a girl like that?
A guy wants a woman who knows how to turn off the “feminine sensitivity” switch and be real with him—for instance, by laughing at his bad jokes and teasing him when he fumbles with his words.
He wants a girl who doesn’t take life too seriously because he knows that she won’t sit around and complain when he doesn’t make her feel like she’s the most important person in his world.
7) He feels like she doesn’t pressure him to do anything he doesn’t want to do
This is a man’s greatest fear in life.
He wants to be free to make his own decisions, but the moment he feels like you’re forcing him to do things he doesn’t want to, he’ll lose all interest in you and everything you stand for.
A guy won’t be able to shift into “happy mode” long enough for this to happen, so it’s important that you don’t pressure him into something he doesn’t want to do.
Does this mean you should give up your plans for him?
No, not at all.
It’s okay to let him know that you had something planned, but don’t make it sound like he has to go with you.
He’ll probably end up going even if he doesn’t want to because he feels like it’s the right thing to do. But what will happen is that in his head, he’ll be thinking “I’m going through this because she wants me to.
8) She’s emotionally supportive
One of the things that make a man comfortable with a woman is the fact that she’s emotionally supportive of him—that she’s available to him when he needs her.
In fact, a study of over 1 million marriages revealed that when women do this for their husbands, the couples stay married longer.
The same study also showed that men who have emotionally supportive wives have lower body weight, fewer alcohol-related problems, and even live longer than those men who don’t have emotionally supportive wives.
So what can you do to make yourself emotionally supportive of your man?
It’s simple:
Whatever he goes through in life, stand by his side and support him without judgment.
9) He feels in control of the situation
Have you ever wondered why men like it when a woman lets them take the lead in a relationship?
Well, there are many reasons for this. But one of the main ones is because it makes the man feel in control of the situation.
And what do you know?
When men feel like they’re in control, they not only love you more than ever—they also feel more confident and capable around you.
There are many ways you can do this, but the best way is by bringing his inner hero. I mentioned this fascinating concept earlier: the hero instinct. When a man’s inner hero is triggered, he’s more likely to be more comfortable with you.
Just by knowing the right things to say to him, you’ll open a part of him that no woman has ever reached before.
And the best way to do so is by watching this free video by James Bauer. In it, he’ll reveal simple phrases and texts you can use to make your man truly yours.
Here’s a link to the excellent video again.
10) There is chemistry between them
This is one of the most important ingredients for a man to feel comfortable with you and be attracted to you. And it can be broken really fast into pieces.
Chemistry exists on two levels:
Physical chemistry, which is his attraction to you, and emotional chemistry, which is the comfort he feels around you.
The two of them together make up 100% of the chemistry that exists between two people. And they’re both dependent on each other.
For instance, in your relationship to be successful, don’t just focus on physical chemistry and hope it will pull through emotionally as well.
Obviously, this is something that requires time to work itself out—but when it does, your relationship will be stronger than ever before.
11) Her boundaries are clear, and she lets him know where they are
Is it good to have boundaries?
Absolutely! And this is one of the main reasons why a man feels comfortable around a woman.
As mentioned earlier, men are dominant creatures by nature. And they like it when they know their role in a relationship—and that you know your role in the relationship.
When you let him know where the boundary is, he can relax more around you and enjoy the woman you are.
So instead of being insecure about him, which will make your relationship a lot less enjoyable for him, let him know that your boundaries are clear.
Another reason why a man enjoys having clear boundaries is that it makes him feel more secure around you.
When he knows that you’re not going to take advantage of him or use him for sex—which is something his mind can’t wrap around—he’ll appreciate you a lot more.
12) She has a sense of humor
According to studies, men who get along with a woman who has a sense of humor are more attracted to them.
(And their relationships last longer as well.)
This is because women with a sense of humor release the oxytocin hormone in the brain and the feel-good hormone dopamine, which makes both parties involved feel happy.
But not just that; it also relaxes the man and allows him to let his guard down, which in return makes him more comfortable around you.
13) She challenges him in a positive way
Think about this for a moment:
How many times have you seen a woman completely and entirely challenge the man in her life, yet he still loves her?
You probably haven’t.
Because most of the time, when a woman directly challenges a man in some way, he gets defensive and uncomfortable around her.
But when she does it in a positive way, she opens up his mind to new possibilities—and his heart to her. So how to do it?
Well, there are two main ways to challenge a man in a positive way:
- Make him think. Make your man think about something that concerns you and him in a way that has a positive solution.
- Challenge him to improve himself. Ask your man to help you do something that involves one of his major talents, like fixing stuff, cooking, or building something big for you.
Doing these things will help you connect more with him and make him feel comfortable around you because he feels intellectually stimulated by you.
14) She fits his personality type
Have you ever wondered why some people, no matter how hard they try, just can’t seem to be comfortable around someone else?
If you haven’t, well, here’s the answer… They don’t fit the other person’s personality type.
For example, a woman with a more dominant personality might feel very uncomfortable around her man if he has a much more passive and submissive nature.
And this is one reason why most relationships fail.
Or maybe you have a more introverted personality, and you’re in a relationship with a man who loves to be around people and go to events.
This is why it’s crucial for you to completely understand your man’s personality and make sure that it fits yours.
15) She doesn’t often place any expectations on him
There’s a reason why someone who expects something from another person feels so uncomfortable around that person.
It’s because of their own insecurities and self-doubts.
And the same goes for a man, too. So if you expect anything from him, he’ll feel like there’s something wrong with him and with the relationship that you have together.
Instead, do everything to get rid of these expectations—and replace them with a new mindset.
And what is it?
The mindset that you don’t need anything else from him, other than him being the great man he is. When you do this, he’ll feel more comfortable around you and share himself even deeper with you.
But keep in mind that even though you don’t expect anything from him—just him being himself—you still want to know what’s going on in his life, who he’s talking to, etc. Because you want to build a deeper connection with him and be there for him.
Final thoughts
We’ve covered 15 things that make a man comfortable with you.
And if you want to learn even more about how to make a man feel more comfortable around you—and fall in love with you, this is one of the best (and most ignored) secrets that will help both of you.
And let me repeat… This is the most ignored secret on how to make a man feel comfortable around you: the hero instinct – it’s the perfect remedy for the situation you’re facing.
Why?
Because once a man’s hero instinct is triggered, he’ll only have eyes for you. You’ll reach a part of him that no woman has ever managed to reach before.
And in return, he’ll be compelled to commit to you and love you like he’s never loved another woman.
So if you’re ready to take that plunge and reach new heights in your relationship, make sure to check out relationship expert James Bauer’s invaluable advice.
