Every woman deserves a man who treats her like royalty.
There’s no better feeling than being cherished, respected, and adored by your partner.
A loving, healthy relationship should make you feel like a true queen.
If your man isn’t quite there yet, don’t lose hope!
With some simple steps, guidance, communication, and boundary setting, you can cultivate the harmonious, committed relationship and beautiful love life you seek.
Here are 10 tips to transform your relationship so your man treats you like the amazing, beautiful queen you are:
How To Make Him Treat You Like A Queen
1. Clearly Communicate Your Needs
The first and most vital step is directly communicating your needs and expectations to your partner.
Have an open, honest conversation about what being treated well means to you.
Speak clearly and specifically so he understands.
For example, explain that you need:
- Dedicated one-on-one quality time together each week
- Sweet surprises like flowers or a planned date night sometimes
- Genuine compliments and loving words every day
- Shared responsibility with household chores
- Respect for your feelings and opinions on big decisions
- Daily affection like hugs, kisses, and cuddles
The key is expressing your fundamental needs and standards.
Don’t assume he can read your mind. Everyone has different preferences in a relationship.
Spell out what makes you feel loved so he can step up.
Frame the conversation positively. Don’t attack him for past mistakes.
Focus on building understanding and creating a beautiful future together.
With clarity around your desires, he can intentionally align his actions with what matters most to you.
Open communication is the foundation for being treated like a queen.
2. Establish Standards For How You Expect To Be Treated
Once you’ve shared your hopes for the relationship, establish standards for how you expect to be treated moving forward.
Define what behavior is acceptable or not.
Convey that you won’t tolerate disrespect, neglect, inappropriate conduct or dynamics that disempower you. Insist on being treated as an equal partner in the relationship.
If certain attitudes or habits have crept into your dynamic, nip them in the bud before they become the norm.
Make it clear from the start that laziness, broken commitments, jealousy, lying, criticism or other toxic patterns won’t fly with you.
You teach people how to treat you.
So decide now what you will or won’t stand for. Compromising your standards only leads to more unsatisfying behavior down the road.
This isn’t about demanding perfection or issuing ultimatums. It’s about explaining the basic decency you expect as his partner. Don’t let him get too comfortable with hurtful habits or double standards.
Establish relationship guardrails and stick to them. Of course, there will be rough patches, but the baseline of respect shouldn’t waver.
When he understands your standards, he can step up.
3. Carry Yourself With Grace, Confidence and Self-Respect
When you exude confidence, self-love and respect for yourself, it inspires your man to see you as the queen you are.
Don’t settle for being undervalued or minimized in the relationship. Know your worth and refuse to compromise it. Walk with your head held high, both metaphorically and literally.
When you carry yourself with grace, dignity and strength, it sends a message about how you expect to be treated. A king will rise up to match the caliber of his queen.
So stand tall, look people in the eye, speak clearly and boldly pursue your dreams. The way you perceive yourself sets the tone for how others see you.
Take impeccable care of yourself too. Pamper your body, feed your spirit, nurture your creativity. Make time for beauty, joy and rest. When you exude confidence and self-care, it’s contagious.
Don’t let anyone diminish your light. Honor your radiant self, flaws and all. A real man will fall deeper in love with the fully expressed, vibrant you.
When you embody the self-worth of a queen, he’ll have no choice but to bow down.
4. Allow Him To Treat You
An important part of being treated like royalty is letting your man pamper you a little! Graciously allow him to make you feel special in ways that feed your soul.
For example, accept his offers to:
- Cook you dinner after a long day
- Draw you a relaxing bubble bath
- Give you a back massage just because
- Buy you gifts that show how well he knows you
- Plan a romantic weekend getaway
Don’t feel guilty about being doted on. Receiving his care and attention is key for feeling cherished. It’s not about materialism – it’s about letting him express his devotion.
Of course, make sure the care-taking goes both ways so he feels equally loved. But when he wants to serve you like a queen, embrace it. Being treated well is a two-way street.
5. Respect and Appreciate Him
The best way to get respect from your man is to give it. Make sure he feels understood, validated and appreciated for all he does.
Notice the little things he does for you and express sincere gratitude. Compliment his strengths and talents often.
Honor his feelings when he confides in you. Show interest in the topics he’s passionate about.
Do thoughtful little acts of service for him like bringing him coffee in the morning or folding his laundry. Write him heartfelt love notes.
Make his favorite meal just because. When he feels loved, he’ll eagerly return the favor.
Mutual love, trust and respect are key.
Don’t take your man for granted. Make him feel valued and he’ll never stop valuing you.
6. Have Unwavering Self-Esteem
When you love yourself fully, you’ll never settle for less than you deserve.
Do the inner work to develop a strong sense of self-worth.
Don’t base your value on your looks or external validation.
When your confidence comes from within, nobody can shake it.
Spend lots of time getting to know your unique gifts and what lights you up. Identify limiting beliefs and consciously rewrite negative self-talk.
Learn to protect your energy from anyone who doesn’t appreciate your shine. Feel worthy regardless of mistakes or setbacks.
You are a bright star – never doubt your radiance.
When you embrace your power from within, your man can’t help but see you as a queen.
7. Set Firm Boundaries
Don’t allow your man to cross established lines of respect. When hurtful behavior occurs, speak up.
Calmly yet firmly explain what he did wrong and that you won’t tolerate it.
Be clear about the values he violated and how you expect to be treated instead.
If he becomes defensive or tries to justify it, stand firm in your truth.
You know in your gut when a boundary is crossed. Sticking up for yourself only earns more respect.
Stay strong in upholding your standards, even if it means walking away from the relationship.
Men who genuinely care about you will course correct when confronted.
If the disrespectful patterns continue despite communicating the impact, you have your answer about whether this relationship serves you.
Never stay with someone who keeps you small or unsafe.
You teach people how to treat you. The more consistently you uphold your boundaries, the more your man will step up.
8. Take Time for Self-Care
Make sure you’re also treating yourself like royalty!
Carve out lots of time in your schedule for relaxing and rejuvenating activities.
Get a massage, visit the spa, curl up with a good book, take a bubble bath.
Do whatever nurtures your mind, body and soul.
When you actively prioritize self-care, your man will see how important pampering yourself is and want to join in.
Plus, when you’re happy and at peace, you’ll naturally attract someone who treats you like a goddess.
Don’t feel guilty about spending time, money and energy on yourself.
You deserve all the self-love! Take good care of your needs and the rest will follow.
9. Don’t Dim Your Light for Anyone
A major key to being treated like a queen is fully embracing your own radiance. Don’t dim your light or minimize your dreams for any man.
Boldly pursue your passions and interests even if he doesn’t share them. Wear what makes you feel beautiful and confident. Express your vibrant personality fully.
Keep growing into all that you were created to be. A real king will fall deeper in love with your authentic, shining spirit.
Stay true to what makes you unique. Compromise in a relationship is healthy, but never lose touch with the core of who you are. Your man should expand your world, not shrink it.
When you embrace your inner and outer glow, it raises the bar for how you expect to be treated. Shine on!
10. Leave If Nothing Changes
As a last resort, know when to walk away if your expectations aren’t met.
Even after clearly communicating your needs and standards, some men won’t change entrenched behaviors.
There’s a difference between temporary misunderstandings, which can be worked through, and pervasive disrespect or neglect.
Don’t waste precious years waiting for someone to value you.
You deserve a man who can’t wait to treat you like a queen every day.
If yours isn’t rising up to meet your clearly expressed needs, he may never. Some people only learn from losing you.
Of course, breakups are painful.
Be gentle with yourself as you grieve the end of a relationship that didn’t serve you.
Talk to supportive friends, write in a journal, take space to heal.
Trust that you will find greater love with someone ready to give you the world.
In the meantime, treat yourself like royalty! And never settle for less.
