Boys. They are perhaps the greatest and most common conversational topic in any women’s life. Why? Well, because all we really want is simply love in the end. We want someone to tell us that everything will be okay and that we are beautiful no matter what, especially on those days that we don’t have the energy to see it ourselves. Though as much as you and I both would love to cuddling with some guy who is just wonderfully and completely loyal and getting surprise “hey beautiful” texts, we all know its much more complicated. Boys can make it complicated, but so can we. So here are a few tools to help win over a guy’s heart and ultimately, become cupid yourself:  

 

1. Eye contact 

2. Smile 

3. Be confident 

4. Eat like a human, not a mouse

5. Back scratches 

6. Space (don’t always be available!) 

7. Be friends with his friends 

8. Make him laugh 

9. Be open and direct (guys aren’t good with signs) 

10. Be you

That last one is very important: be yourself. The more “you” and unique you are, the more you will peak the interest of another guy. There is nothing more attractive than staying true to yourself and staying confident. So don’t be scared to follow these steps because boys don’t bite. However, the regret will bite, so next time you see him (whoever just popped into your head or whatever handsome fellow you have yet to meet), smile. A simple smile could lead to a million things.
