Avoid the Beta Mindset

As well as being indecisive, nice guys are inclined to be passive-aggressive. Women are often turned off when this foible is exhibited in a man.

What’s passive-aggressive? Passive-aggressive behavior refers to passive, sometimes obstructionist resistance to following authoritative instructions in interpersonal or occupational situations. It can manifest itself as resentment or repeated failure to accomplish requested tasks for which one is assumed, often explicitly, to be responsible. It is a defensive mechanism and, more often than not, only partly conscious.

When the woman finally leaves him for a more exciting guy, he will complain about how he “did everything for her...”

This need to do everything for a woman comes from the guy's insecurity and feelings of jealousy. You want to keep her happy and wanting for nothing, to make sure she doesn't stray. Problem is, that's exactly what she does do.

Jealousy is a weakness, your way of saying you feel completely inferior to the other guys she is talking to or looking at. That lack of confidence is not an alpha male characteristic.

I realise that this is sometimes easier said than done, but you need to control any feelings of jealousy if your relationship is to survive. Get yourself into the mind-set of knowing you are an alpha male, and that you value yourself. It's a self-fulfilling prophecy, in the positive sense, that at first, to act like this is going to be tough. However, after a while of acting like an alpha male, people will start to treat you like one, which in turn makes it easier and easier to act like one, and so the cycle continues...
