How to Attract Men Without Talking..
Here are some tips and tricks from relationship and matchmaking experts that can help you get a man to focus his attention on you.
Men just need a little encouragement.
If you can make eye contact, smile at them. If they’re available and interested, they’ll come over.
I remember just smiling at a guy in a bar once; it was like he’d been waiting for a green light because he came over immediately and we ended up dating for three months.
Ask for his help..
As 1950s as this sounds, men really like being helpful.
Open up about a challenging situation at work or ask him for an app recommendation.
“Think of whatever you can ask him that makes him thinks he’s smart — other than his stomach, through helpfulness is the best way to get to him,” said Tessina.
Talk about your hobbies..
Talk about little things you do, like keeping fresh flowers at home, doing yoga, reading a book every week, or getting a good night’s sleep, said Emily Holmes Hahn, founder of LastFirst bespoke matchmaking club.
They might seem insignificant, but any sign of a “centered and balanced lifestyle” is encouraging, she said.
Look him in the eye..
Both Tessina and Hahn recommend some classic, direct eye contact.
(But don’t stare them down, either.) Some friendly eye to eye will let him know you’re interested, so don’t be afraid to eye-flirt across the room!
Say thank you..
It turns out men actually get annoyed when women don’t say thank you, according to Lori Zaslow and Jenn Zucher, founders of the matchmaking company Project Soulmate.
“Even the most confident guy needs a thank you,” said Zucher.
Know when to give up..
If you make eye contact with a cute guy and you appear to be open, friendly, and inviting, and he still doesn’t come over, you probably don’t want to waste your time going after him.
He knows something you don’t—like, that he’s not interested…or he’s married.
