One of the most common questions that a guy asks is “how to impress a girl?”. How do I go about making the girl I am interested in, find interest in me? This is the constant battle and there’s a good chance that in ancient times, they were asking this question as well. There are a few things that the majority girls like. By possessing these traits, impressing a girl becomes much easier. However, each girl is different and a relationship is all about compatibility.
Grooming
Girls like to know that their guy is well groomed. This is especially difficult during the puberty years because so many guys get acne and it appears as if they are dirty. Fortunately, acne is not caused by dirt. The best ways to stay groomed are to shower regularly, brush your teeth, floss, keep your facial hair well kept, and have a reasonable haircut. Most importantly, though, is how you dress. While many young people suggest wearing sagging clothes is what gets girls, the truth is, a girl wants a guy that looks smart. A smart look is achieved by wearing clothes that fit; not too big, not too small. When a girl sees that you are well groomed, she sees confidence and girls love confidence.
Confidence
The topic of confidence leads to the second trait girls look for. Confidence is not cockiness and being full of yourself. Confidence is being comfortable enough in your skin to talk to someone without fear of rejection. More importantly, confidence is the ability to walk with your head raised. A lot of people walk with their head down out of fear of confronting someone. A confident person walks eyes first. A genuine show of understated confidence is very attractive to girls.
Respect
A girl wants to be respected. If you treat her like crap, you might get to keep her around for a little while, but then she is going to ditch you. The attitude that “the bad guy gets everyone” is not exactly true and therefore, it is important to respect the girl that you are trying to attain. What’s important, though, is to also respect people around you. If you treat people with disrespect, they might see that as a chance you’ll disrespect them. The saying, “The way a man treats his mother is how he’ll treat his wife” is a good way to think about it.
Let Her Talk
As stereotypical as it might sound, women typically love to talk about themselves. Every chance you get, put the conversation on her and allow her to talk about the topic. For example, if she asks what types of books are interesting to you, answer it, but then direct the question back to her and include a follow up question to get more information from her. There are times when complimenting her is appropriate. Even if she doesn’t like you yet, a compliment always warms a girl’s heart.
Impressing a girl is not rocket science. It does require a few steps and some careful understanding on who you are yourself. Be well groomed, show confidence, be respectful and let her talk is an effective way to impress a girl. However, don’t overdo it. Don’t be cocky and don’t consistently force her to talk. You have to contribute to the conversation as well. Everything is a balance when trying to impress a girl.
