How to Impress a Guy

Video Transcript

"Hi, my name is Reka Morvay. I'm a psychologist and I'm going to talk to you today about how to impress a guy. I think before we start talking about how to impress a guy, the first question is: why do you want to impress this guy? Because this to me implies that maybe you don't feel that being just yourself is enough to make a good impression. There's a big difference between creating a good impression, and aiming to really impress somebody. With that said, once you understand your motivations for why you want to impress this person, and why it isn't enough to just be yourself, what you need to find out is what this person finds impressive. Maybe they're really smart and really brainy so they would be most impressed by somebody who's also really smart or really brainy. Maybe they're really into sports and are very active, and in this situation, they would be impressed by something quite different, so what you really need to do is to understand who this person is that you're trying to impress and see if something that would be impressive for them is something that also fits with your personality."
