There’s a tragic phenomenon happening in the dating world: kind, caring and thoughtful women are being made to believe that they’re too needy, that they come off as desperate, or that they’re downright creepy for showing interest in a man. Granted, there is something to be said for holding back a little when you’re just getting to know somebody. Nobody should blow grand gestures on a first date since most first dates go nowhere. But if it’s been established that a guy is into you, and he has even gone out of his way to do thoughtful things for you, you should feel no qualms about showing a little TLC. If you’re a woman who is constantly thinking of others but is constantly dumped, don’t let anybody tell you that you came on too strong. You aren’t the problem; the problem is the guys you’re dating. You’re mature enough to know that kindness and generosity are important in a relationship, so date men who are mature enough to appreciate that. Here are 15 caring gestures that only scare off immature men.

Offering to stay in with him
You’ve been dating a guy for a couple of months, and he tells you he’s feeling blue one night. So you cancel your plans to go out to stay in with him and cheer him up. An immature man still wants to feel that you’re hard to get—he wants you to ditch him for a night club. A mature man realizes that it’s incredibly mature of you to nurture a relationship instead of dance with strangers.

Remembering a big day
You remember that today is the day he gives a presentation at work that could change his life! So you drop off a cute card on his desk or send a funny video message.

Bringing soup over
Bringing soup over to the home of the sick guy who you’ve been dating is generous. You spent your time and money on that soup. A mature guy appreciates that you are nurturing and empathetic. An immature guy hasn’t learned to love himself yet, so he doesn’t know how to accept acts of love like this.

Throwing him a surprise party

Buying little “just because” gifts
You remembered that he loves a certain band, so when you saw one of their old vinyl records at a yard sale, you picked it up for him.

Mature men will appreciate what a good listener you are—there aren’t many of those these days.

Doing some cleaning for him

Letting him pick the movie or restaurant
You are genuinely happy eating any food or watching any movie, so you let your guy choose. An immature man thinks you have no opinion of your own; a mature man knows that you have learned what really matters in life, and it’s not the movie or the restaurant but the company.
