For certain men, the challenge of seducing different women is far
more interesting than the actual pursuit of a long-term romantic
relationship. Such a man is known as a womanizer, or sometimes
a Lothario or Don Juan.
A womanizer is often a serial dater who enjoys
the thrill of the chase more than the end game of the dating ritual.
Women who have encountered such men may have other names for them, such
as players or walk-away Joes.
A womanizer generally considers
himself to be both a ladies' man and a man's man, maintaining an
atmosphere of mystique and sophistication. He may surround himself with
other male players or a support posse, but he clearly exudes a superior
level of self-confidence bordering on vanity and self-absorption.
While all of these trappings may help a womanizer seduce a new
target, he is generally following a script which has proven to be
successful in the past. Conversations are usually surface-level and
tailored to appeal to the woman's personality and interests. A serial
womanizer is keenly aware of how to hold a woman's interest through
conversation and other seductions, which may work in his favor if he
wants the date to escalate physically. This is all part of the
seduction game for a chronic womanizer, who may not even be truly
interested in the woman as an individual.
A habitual womanizer may have serious issues with women in general,
which can be the hidden motivation behind the seduction and ultimate
rejection process. A womanizer is often a male chauvinist who views
women as inferiors or manipulators who somehow deserve to be played by
an aggressive male. A womanizer may be so concerned about rejection
that he makes sure he remains in complete control of every relationship
he enters, no matter how superficial or fleeting. Some relationship
experts suggest that a habitual womanizer may be reenacting a painful
break-up experience every time he picks up a new "conquest."
Other womanizers may actually love the company of women too much.
They cannot commit to an exclusive or monogamous relationship because
there are far too many other interesting types of women to pursue. They
don't necessarily want to hurt their current partners, but they also
cannot resist the temptation to flirt with other women as assurance of
their sexual or romantic prowess. A player or ladies' man may be very
good at hiding his true nature from a long-term romantic partner, but
eventually most womanizers either get caught in an infidelity or mature
to the point where a monogamous relationship holds more appeal than
serial seductions.
Britney
Spears seemed confident she knew how to spot one, but are you?
We
reveal some of the signs every woman should look out for…....
He has lots of female acquaintances but no female friends
He
finds it hard to see women in anything but a sexual light and views
every female as a potential conquest. This makes him incapable of
maintaining a normal platonic friendship with anyone of the opposite sex.
He promises the earth
While most men are reticent about
commitment, a womaniser doesn’t think twice about hinting at a future
together. Of course he has no intention of seeing it through, he just
knows exactly what you want to hear. Be wary of a chap who promises too
much too soon. It’ll hurt like hell when he decides to take it away –
and he certainly will once he’s got what he wanted.
He asks a lot of questions
At first you think it’s great
that he’s so attentive and interested in finding out what makes you
tick, but don’t be fooled. He’s just doing the research that he’ll
later put to good use by pretending to have the same aspirations,
tastes, likes and dislikes as you.
He makes you think dirty
A cunning Cassanova is adept at
priming females for sex by subtly dropping a few innuendos into the
conversation or finding excuses to bring up the topic of sex. It’s a
smooth way of manipulating your subconscious into thinking naughty
thoughts. And guess who reaps the rewards?
He arranges dates at hotel bars
Once he’s got you in the mood with all the sexy talk, it’s only a short trip from the bar to the bedroom. See what he did there?
He’s vain
Most womanisers have big egos and a sense of
vanity to match. Just because he wears expensive clothes and is always
well-heeled doesn’t mean he’s a lothario but over-confidence, a general
sense of superiority, swagger and a tendency to show off should be
viewed with extreme caution.
He locks his phone
If his phone rarely stops buzzing and
he starts acting shady or shifts the screen away from your gaze
whenever it rings, his furtive behaviour is trying to hide the fact
that he’s busy making plans with other women.
He ‘forgets’ your name
While he may not be clumsy enough
to actually call you by another name, he will employ little tricks so
as not to blow his cover. Be on your guard if he starts using blanket
terms of endearment like ‘babe’, ‘darling’ and ‘sweetie’ when you’ve
only just met. He’s just making sure he doesn’t get your name muddled
up with one of his other girlfriends.
He’s over complimentary
Womanisers are clever creatures.
They have a unique sense that’s finely attuned to the female psyche and
hence are brilliant at knowing what you want to hear even if they
don’t mean it. When compliments glide off his tongue like honey it’s
hard not to be taken in, but you have to ask yourself how many times
he’s used these lines before.
He has as short attention span
A womaniser gets off on the challenge of a conquest but rapidly loses interest once he’s achieved his goal - getting you into bed. Obviously, you can’t know this for sure until it’s too late, but if you suspect he might be a player try staving off sexual involvement for a week to see if he loses interest.He flashes his cash
Womanisers often use wealth to impress
their prey. He may well make sure your glass is always full and that
you never have to reach for your purse, but his intentions are not
honourable.
