Remember that, I told you that most of our problems in life have solutions. Sometimes these solutions can be difficult, sometimes it may be an easy one.

sometimes, we tend to invest way too much in a relationship and adjust to situations and people more than what is required. We start placing our partner's needs before our own and after one point of time, anything we do becomes a thankless job.

One of the basic personality traits of people who are taken for granted is that they are unable to say 'No'. If this sounds like you, it means that you are simply afraid that you may sound rude or arrogant.

It may sound a bit selfish but it is okay to say 'No' at times to your partner or people around you like friends, colleagues at work place, etc. No matter how dedicated you're as a lover or friend, you don't have to say 'Yes' to anything and everything people say to you. You don't have to go above your capability to help. If you can't help just feel free to say 'No, dear I can't help you with that.'Saying no for the right reason will make people respect your opinion and reconsider their own behaviour and attitude towards you.

So if you want to stop from being taken for granted, you have to put this fear aside and put your foot down to say 'No'should the need arise.

Remember, happiness comes from within. Yes! Happiness can't be bought with money or any other thing. You need to be a dedicated caring partner or friend, but that doesn't mean you should ignore your own needs and wants. Focus on your self first, think of how to develop and improve yourself, take your me-time every day and do things that gives you joy and happiness. This will enable you rebuild, to know what you're lacking. It will prevent self-discomfort and self-dissatisfaction.

This is one of the major reasons why you're always been taking for granted, you always want to please every people that comes your way. Sometimes you even do for them before they ask. Do you always help people out with their problems even when they are above your ability? If yes, you are setting the wrong expectation level. You need to stop because when you do that always people won't know your worth, they will regard you as a simple person who always do what they want. They will take advantage of your niceness. All you need to do is to put a firm attitude. Be nice but use your discretion and firm up whenever required.

People will take you for granted if you don't acknowledge your effort and if you don't appreciate their appreciation. When you do something nice and people thank you for it, you don't have to walk away just like that, because if you do, it means you didn't value what you did for them. So they will have no reason to applaud you next time. What you need do is to tell them that they are welcome, this means that you have appreciate whatever you done for them and you worth being praised. They won't take you for granted when next you help them. Also, in case your partner forgets to thank you when you have done something special for him or her, be a little witty and say 'You're welcome' yourself. Your message would be passed.

Once you have more clarity about your own feelings and what can be done to improve the situation. Its time to have a candid-yet-serious conversation with the person that is taking you for granted. Start with explaining how you feel you are been taken for granted and how it is impacting the relationship between you two. Tell him or her want you don't like about his or her attitude towards you. This will enable you to understand you and your need better. Just don't put blame on anyone, see how you both can work out a solution together.

How to attract women is a thing men have been wondering for ages. Is it a complicated issue, or do the ladies file us away in neat stereotypical folders?

Gentlemen, the simple fact is that there are specific categories of men that women are just more likely to fawn over. 

This may not come as a surprise to many of you, but puppies are a hit.

Men with puppies are hotter than men without according to women. Reddit is absolutely teeming with women who feel the same way. The consensus is that men who own dogs are generally perceived to be great caretakers no matter what.

How to attract women? Own a dog. Don't get a puppy for the sake of dating but if you already own one, post a few pictures!

Status has more to do with cars, though. Social media yields unparalleled evidence of women's opinions on style. Even if a stylish man isn't a millionaire, the ladies tend to stick around.

Why? Stylish men are a rare commodity.

Also called the George Clooney Effect.

As women make more money, they focus more on male attractiveness. However, they consistently prefer an older, well-kept man; the elusive silver fox.

This is great for you gentlemen with greying hair that take good care of yourselves. Youth does not determine sex appeal, but grooming habits and style do.

Surprise, surprise muscular men are hot.

A study way back in 2007 in which women assessed a few shirtless guys. They rated beefcakes to be hotter, but ONLY for very short-term relationships. We're talking a one-night stand.

The muscles do help your sex appeal but only in the short term.

Muscular men are objectified, and the more skin they show, the worse it gets. In order to mitigate this, make sure to use your clothing to your advantage.

How to attract women? A 2014 study determined that you need to take a few risks. No, forgetting to fasten your seat belt is not what I'm talking about.

The ladies love what the study called hunter-gatherer risks. These being hobbies and sports which carry a primordial vibe. Men with extreme hobbies have a good shot with the ladies.

They include handling dangerous animals, extreme sports like sky-diving, and hobbies such as mountain-climbing.

This is great news if you already fancy yourself an adventurer.

When it comes to how to attract women, funny guys reign supreme.

This comes from a 2015 study that had men and women come together for 10 minutes. As the couples got to know each other, laughter played an integral role in relationship potential.

In later interviews, the women would always consider the guy who made them laugh for a long-term relationship.

Laughter is also a clear indicator of relationship success. Couples who laugh together are happier together.

Bad boys are cool for a day.

Here's the deal: Many men are cursed with the Dark Triad personality traits

Narcissism, when all you can think of is yourself. Psychopathy, comprising a lack of empathy and erratic behavior. Finally Machiavellianism, encompassing ruthlessness and duplicity.

Narcissism lends itself well to women in the short term because these men are highly competitive. This leads them to outdo their peers and women notice.

Never imitate these guys their tactics go stale after a night or two.

Psychopathic men are ruthlessly exploitative and have been recorded to display superficial charm.

Machiavellian men are notoriously promiscuous because of their dominating personalities and opportunistic tendencies.

NONE of these are good they just work in the short term. In fact, they lend themselves to terrible relationship performance for the very same reasons listed above.

At the end of the day, this is about science, and it's terribly short-lived. It's not what men should emulate.

Summary 

We covered a wide range of male stereotypes that bring the ladies in like magnets.

The science gives us mixed results sometimes it comes down to style, other times it's about muscle. At times, toxic dudes like bad boys reap the benefits.

It's up to you how you approach the complex web of attraction. If you want my advice, I'd rather you try anything besides option 7
