Some guys are just born with all of it, aren’t they? Some men have glorious bodies from spending hours at the gym. Some are great conversationalists and can talk to women for hours on end. Some have loads of cash they can spend on expensive dates on their yachts. And of course, some are just simply well-endowed down there.
But of course, amidst all these fine specimens of manhood, there are other guys out there who are wondering, “How can I compete with all these men?!” If you really think about it, there are things even the average Joe can do to make a woman’s head turn in his direction.
# Have a great sense of humorNow this isn’t something you can learn off the bat. But it helps to be able to try and make the ladies laugh. Learn how to deliver a punchline, have an arsenal of funny stories and never, ever delve into the realm of making a woman laugh at the expense of another person.
You’d be surprised at how a hearty laugh can make a girl fall head over heels for you! After all, when you’re both old and grey, laughter is a great cure-all for making you feel young again.
# Good hygieneKeep yourself properly groomed and presentable, and you’ll instantly get plus points in the looks department. Keep your fingernails trimmed, your breath fresh and your hair grease-free whenever you’re looking to attract a girl. No one wants to be touched or kissed by a guy who looks like he rolled around in the dirt before a date!
# Good postureNo one wants a sloucher. Not only does it convey low self-esteem and carelessness for one’s appearance, but it’s also very unsightly. In addition, if you happen to be of below average height, slouching will only make you shorter than the girls you want to date!
Keep your back straight and your chin parallel to the ground, and you’ll command attention wherever you go. In the long run, it also keeps you from being chronically hunchbacked, and do you think anyone wants to date a Quasimodo?
# Know something girlyDon’t worry guys, this won’t decrease your manliness. In fact, it can make women think a little more highly of you, since many women would be attracted to a man who is in touch with his feminine side.
It pays to know the difference between a manicure and pedicure and why both are equally important investments. It also helps to know a little about the latest chick flicks. In addition to this, some ladies like to talk about girly things, and if you know a little bit about what she’s talking about, at least you won’t be completely clueless!
# Good taste
Like a sense of humor, this takes time and experience. But in general, it pays to have good taste in something, whether it’s restaurants, movies, clothing or even interior design. What you have good taste in shows that you pay attention to detail, and that you are passionate about something. Good taste lets your date know that you can take a stand and choose what you like, instead of just going with whatever other people are into.
# RespectfulnessBe respectful to everyone you come into contact with. No one has the right to be a jerk to anyone, whether it’s the waiter or anyone they pass on the street. It’s true that respect must be earned, but there’s no reason to be disrespectful to a person who’s not doing anything bad towards you.
