10 Powerful Ways to Attract Men

Take control of your dating life and embrace these attributes (to the best of your ability) to start dating the men of your dreams and to simply empower yourself as a woman.

10) Be Playful
Guys love girls that they can joke around with. Most guys want girls who don't take themselves too seriously because this makes guys more comfortable. Start giving guys a few playful punches to the arm, a tussling of the hair, a poke in the waist, etc. Knowing how to playfully flirt and how to use a sarcastic tone well is very key in developing a fun personality that will cause guys to feel attraction for you. If you can take a playful insult and maybe deliver a few playful insults of your own, you'll be well on your way to magnetize men.

9) Smell Good that attract men
Your breath and your perfume are absolutely crucial. Bad breath on girls is probably one of the biggest things that can completely turn off a man and I've had a lot of prior experience. Body odor is just as bad. Although it sounds cliched that I'm telling you to keep your breath fresh and your perfume handy, this is actually a very important aspect of your hygiene that you need to MAKE ABSOLUTELY SURE YOU CONTROL. I once met a really cute girl but once I smelled her absolutely RANCID breath I just cringed and got out of that situation.

8) Be Feisty
Feisty girls are girls that don't let guys take control of them. Guys love what they can't have easily, and having a little bit of fesity attitude helps. Of course you've got to gauge the guy, because there are some guys who absolutely hate feistiness. Most of these guys have some kind of issues with self-esteem or control, and thus, probably not worth your time. Do not let him have what he wants ALL the time; instead show him that you are going to make some choices. However, DO NOT be domineering or try to be the boss. Men need a certain level of control and they need to validate themselves as manly men.

7) Look Good
Guys are very unlike girls. A majority of our attraction comes from how a girl looks. Some of you may be thinking, "But what if I don't already look good?" There's hope for you ladies. Unlike guys, you have makeup and clothes that help A LOT. I've seen time and time again that makeup can completely reivent a person's look. Invest a little money and time on learning how to dress well + plus look good. Get that gym membership and start dieting if you're not happy with your body.

6) Teach him something
It is very attractive if a girl can teach something well, especially if it's something that may interest us. For example, if you can teach a musical instrument or a sport (think female-oriented sports like tennis and volleyball). This also allows for you two to have a new mutual interest and mutual activity. If you don't have anything that you could teach, you also should think about evaluating your life. Do you have a well-balanced life full of interesting things or are you boring and one-dimensional?

5) Be Interesting
Men can't be expected to always keep a conversation going. You also need to have a few interesting topics to talk about. When a woman can be incredibly interesting, men will be attracted despite what the woman looks like. Being interesting also includes your lifestyle. If you don't do anything fun, this can turn off a man. Having more interests and being a well-rounded person will help you to be more interesting and therefore help you to attract men.

4) Make him jealous
As mentioned prior, men love what they can't have. So when you display to him that you have several options, then this really makes him want you. This is akin to playing hard-to-get, however, you do need to show interest because many men will move on if they don't feel like they've planted a seed of interest in you. This means flirt with him, but also let him know that you have other men in your life that can easily sweep you away if he doesn't act.

3) Don't congregate in crowds
This tip is mostly for the ladies that like to go clubbing a lot to find men. If you want to be approachable, don't go with too many other women. Being with 3 girls or with some guy-friends makes it very nerve-racking for guys to approach.Guys love to approach 2-women groups and single people especially. If you do go with a few friends, make sure you have time to separate yourself and maybe go chill by the bar.

2) Initiate
Don't be afraid to make a move on guys. Although I usually don't recommend it, there are some guys out there that are shy and need a pretty big sign before they start making the move (ASIAN GUYS ESPECIALLY). The best way to let a guy know that you are interested is to ASK HIM if he wants to hang out. You don't need to make it a big deal or call it a date. Just ask him if he wants to go get some lunch or a coffee and get to know him. Men believe that it is very "refreshing" when women ask them out. However, if you really can't initiate it, or are too shy, you should give him an opportunity to ask you out. For example, telling him that you are really bored or telling him you can't wait to see a certain movie.

1) Be Bubbly
Laughing a lot, making cute expressions, and being the life of the party are surefire ways to get noticed by guys. Being bubbly also helps present your personality as a warm, friendly, very nice person, which is extremely attractive. You probably know a few girlfriends that are the definition of "bubbly." They are very social, talkative, sweet people that just immensely brighten up people's days. Be that girl and you will find yourself with a lot of options in the man department.
