Girls, How do I handle these types of guys?

[Anonymous]

Like guys who are rugged and manly. I met this guy recently, he is tall, muscular, aggressive, and takes no crap. He is into outdoor stuff and hiking, and also knows how to fight. I don't look like a model but he has flirted with me. He once touched my arm when he walked by me, and another time, he put his arm around me and tickled my waist. Another time, while he was sitting down I teased him by stretching back so he could see my curves. He flirted back by lifting my shirt and tickling my belly and I ran away, looking back and sticking out my tongue through my teeth. The next day, he asked me out. On the date, he came behind me and pulled up my shirt to uncover my belly and I excused myself to go to the bathroom. I think he got the hint because he didn't lift my clothes again. He paid, protected me and made sure I got home safely. What do you think about this?

Oh, to be honest that type of guy is most likely a big turn off for me so I don't have direct experience about that, but (with a LOT of prejudice) in absence of more data I would assume he is a bit sexist because putting a lot of importance into masculinity and could be afraid of not being recognized as such, probably he is conservative, possessive/jealous, and with low social skills, especially during conflicts in the couple (I'd expect silent treatment and other childish bullshit), maybe he is slightly entitled as well.
Said this enormous, unfair and tragic prejudice I just wrote, I think the best way to tick his boxes (only if I am right in this superficial reading) is to never make him feel "not enough", always making him feel like he is being great and successful, making him feel like a winner, your special person you believe into. You should act conservatively with modesty with all those playful smiles and shyness, you should not tease him or play power games (like don't mention other guys or ghost him on purpose to "test" him, he would lose the battle in a blink and get triggered, dumping you). Find excuses to make him feel useful for tasks that are simple (that don't challenge him for "real" so he can't lose) but that you pretend to need assistance for or letting it suspended so he will offer that. Then he needs praise afterwards. Just really imagine he is a grumpy kid with broken pride and you're a motherly educator (but pretending to be impressed), everything will work and unfold spontaneously.
But be very aware to not end up in relationship dynamics where that becomes the norm or you'll end up in an abusive situation, realizing that when it's too late and full in already. If you get more official then require always his responsibility and his communication skills, his active cooperation in any couple issue and don't allow childish techniques of control like the silent treatment after a conflict or other drastic/victimistic bullshit to make you feel guilty, neither allow his full control on your social life out of possible jealousy.
So I'm suggesting this ONLY to attract him more during this initial phase, not as a style during the relationship because that would go in your disadvantage.

And anyway I might be wrong, I based all my reply on a big assumption, so take it with a grain (a ball) of salt.
