Are you looking for someone to spend time with and build a relationship with? It takes work for most people to attract a mate. If you think you are attractive, confident, and a good catch, you will attract a mate more quickly. These simple steps will help you to attract a mate more easily.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions

Things You'll Need:

  • Figure-flattering clothes
  1. Step 1

    Smile. The first thing that many people notice about someone of the opposite sex is his or her smile. Don’t frown all the time--show off those pearly whites. When you smile, it shows you are happy and pleasant to be around. Smiling not only attracts the opposite sex, but makes you feel better about yourself as well.

  2. Step 2

    Dress in a way that flatters your figure. You don’t want to attract a mate who only wants you for your body, but it’s not a bad thing to look good either. When you are dressed in a flattering way, you feel more confident about yourself. When you feel attractive, it is easier to get the attention of the member of the opposite sex.

  3. Step 3

    Listen and talk. When he finally does approach you, listen to what he says. Don’t interrupt or cut him off. Nothing is a bigger turnoff than someone who wants to be the center of attention at all times. While it’s good to listen, be sure to offer your two cents as well. Talk about your dreams and desires. Don’t say what you think the other person wants to hear--say what you mean. Look into his or her eyes when talking.

  4. Step 4

    Be confident. You will attract a mate more easily if you show that you are confident. Stand up straight with your head held high. Don’t walk around with your arms crossed because you don’t want to appear closed off.

  5. Step 5

    Smell good. Be sure to shower and get cleaned up before going out. Spray a nice smelling perfume or cologne, but don’t overdo it. You want to attract the other person with your sweet smell, not drive him or her away because you smell too strong.

Tips & Warnings
  • Be confident in yourself. Not only will it benefit you and your self-esteem, but it is attractive to the other person as well.
  • Wear some perfume or cologne, but don’t put on too much. You don’t want to drive him or her away because you smell too strong.
