Why do some men like girls with childlike personalities?

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I don’t mean childlike as childish,

I mean a person who’s cheerful, trusting, idealistic, dreamer... I mean someone who’s not afraid to be herself just because she’s expected to act the certain way.

I can be a bit childlike and playful sometimes and I’ve noticed my boyfriend is always much more sweet and caring when I act like that.

I don’t mean to fake myself, I just act like I feel and at that time he keeps saying how much he loves me and that I am so cute and he wants to constantly make me happy,

I am happy for that and I love him a lot lot, I am just curious, why do I receive more love when I act more playful, are most men attracted to the childlike traits and find it more lovable rather than serious women?

We don’t want to openly compete with our women. We do not mind if she is “more successful” than we are.
- I appreciate a gentle spirit with the attributes of a Proverbs Wife SO THAT if something happens she is both mentally and emotional fit to handle the situation and monies.
—If anyone ever reads the whole of Ephesians 5 and how man/woman were designed to interact for one another…then Joyful spirit is required for both.
—When one sees joyful in her femininity THEN…that’s a potential Treasure…and she’s treated as Treasure.

Yeah. I won't even bother w serious women. They literally gross me out. Its how i imagine bedding Hillary Clinton... all business no fun.

Expressing yourself that way can bring out a man’s paternal instincts a bit. It can draw out more of their nurturing and protective side.


There’s also that energetic polarity that’s created from you expressing your playful carefree femininity. Hard and soft energies attract.


Also, that playful energy has a certain seductive charm about it. There are many different styles of charm and seduction and different men are drawn to different things.


What you describe sounds like what Robert Greene calls, “The Natural”


You can read more about this from his book, The Art of Seduction. :)

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Thank you for such an interesting answer.

I’ve read about The Natural and I guess it fits me, I am spontaneous, very open, playful, careless so on… with my boyfriend.

It’s just sometimes I wish I was more of a Siren type.

I am not good at mind playing and I am too much of an open-book, while my boyfriend is much smarter at it and is much more seductive than I am.

When we are together, he takes on a protective, caring role, takes care of me and treats me like his little princess.

But sometimes I think he knows me too well, I am an open-book, while he is still a mystery for me.

The thing is my boyfriend was attracted to me because I had an attitude of a strong, sexy, independent girl who has control over her life and is happy with it.

When he got to know me closer he said he could never imagine I was that cute and he would often baby me.

I wonder why I am like this and I wish I could act less cute and more sexy. But I just can’t.

I can only act like a “siren” with men who don’t know me but I can’t pretend with my boyfriend. And I am a bit worried, I am already 25, don’t want to be forever childlike.

[dynamicyandere]

You’re welcome. 😊

I’m sure your boyfriend appreciates both sides of you. Otherwise, he wouldn’t be so affectionate when you show your cute side to him.

I don’t think there’s anything wrong with that. It sounds like that’s just the archetype that comes naturally with who you genuinely are at this moment in time.

In a way, it’s sort of like having a hard exterior and a soft interior within. It can make you more dynamic and interesting.

To change your archetype, you would have to change yourself, from within. But, if you feel fulfilled expressing this side of you, there’s nothing you need to change.

My philosophy is that people should strive for fulfillment—what feels right for them? What feels like the right way to be, in their soul, in their bones? Where is the intersection between becoming the best version of themselves and feeling deeply fulfilled? Become that. Strive for that.

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

I agree! 🥰

Anyway, I think my boyfriend is The Ideal Lover type, what about you?

[dynamicyandere]

Really? My archetype is the Ideal Lover and my SO is the Natural. That’s an interesting coincidence!

I can see how that pairing can be complementary between you two. ☺️

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Wow!!!

That’s interesting, seems like these two really gets along.

[dynamicyandere]

Haha, yeah. Apparently so! :)

[IJhonnyI]

It is very admiring and makes you just want too hold, hug, and cherish that smart, childish, beautiful women ofc we wouldn't want a women that 24/7 is serious and isn't able to take a joke or isn't able have a good time for a little bit or joke around with you, personally, i love me a female with childlike personalities but still has that women driven mindset if I ever find someone like that I will possibly fall in love again, I hope not😂

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Yup. I think that’s how he feels as well. 🧚🏻‍♀️🧚🏻‍♀️

Why wouldn’t you like to meet a woman like this again? Do you have a bad experience with love?

[IJhonnyI]

I mean I can say yes, but it's a lot more messed up then I could explain on here 😕and I'm not that type of person who blames all women, but my ex hid her lies so well its hard for me too trust any women again, but I'm not biased towards women i still believe women could be loyal of course and all that but me personally, long story short I jus won't get in a relationship anytime soon 😐

[IJhonnyI]

And yea I get it "I'm young" I'm tired of hearing that, but you have to be in my shoes too understand who I actually am and what I've actually been through🤐😶🤐

[IJhonnyI]

But I hope what you have with your significant other goes amazingly well and I hope nothing phases either of you, don't let negative thoughts enter your mind nor ruin what you have sounds like both of you have something special don't let negative thoughts get in the way

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Hey, I am sorry for late reply, I’ve not checked all of my notifications…

I am sad for your bad experience, just hope you meet a girl someday who’ll make you believe in love again and who you’ll trust and feel happy with.

I am not going to say you’re young. At 16 and at 26, feelings can be of the same intensity and heartbreak is a heartbreak whether you are 10 or 80…

Thank you for your kind wishes, if you want to talk or if you’ll need listening I’ll be here.

[IJhonnyI]

Hey, thank you so much I would've responded earlier but my account was frozen, I just wanted too say thank you, and I can't even lie I might take up your offer just too have someone too listen, don't know if I'm typing so late too the point were your offer expired😂 but if it did its alright but again thank you and hope everything's well with you 🙏🏽

[LaFemmeFatale_1]

Haha, nope, the offer hasn’t expired.

If I don’t answer on time, don’t take it personally, I rarely check DMs, however I’ll listen my best when I check it.

[TheSpaceGnome]

Because thats how most men prefer to be, and thats how we prefer everyone acted. Being too serious or stern when it's not needed, is usually just being negative. People don't like negativity.

[saintsRow3]

Because That’s who they really are.

[crmoore]

It's endearing and inspires a sense of bliss.

[crmoore]

And sweet, lol
