The Rudiments of Dating

 

When it comes to successful dating, whether as a man or a woman, the number one thing you need to have is confidence. And confidence is something that can be garnered with careful and correct guidance and input. One of the ways to appear confident is to be as well versed as possible, on a few selective topics where the intellect of the individual can be clearly displayed within the confines of the said topics.

Injecting relevant comments periodically into the conversation can effectively portray the confidence levels of the individual if the comments are carefully selected for its interesting and informative style. Besides the ability to converse well and on a variety of carefully selected topics, dressing well will also help to portray a suitable and impressive level of confidence in the individual.

 

Men who take the trouble to dress well and comfortably, usually mentally and subconsciously radiate the self-confidence aura that is very positively impacting on those around. This often very powerful way of portraying confidence, also help the individual gain even more attention and respect than otherwise possible. Therefore the power of dressing well should never be underestimated.

 

Being well groomed will also help the male to draw admirable glances which will ultimately contribute to the confidence levels being established and increased. Also all females appreciate the efforts taken by males in their grooming regimen as it shows the characteristics of someone who is meticulous and concerned about his appearance. Getting positively noticed by females certainly helps to build up further confidence levels.

 

Express with body language

Most people would claim that it is comparatively easy to read a woman’s body language than that of a male’s. However with some knowledge on this and careful observations it is often very possible to read and understand the male’s body language portrayals. The following are some examples of the often used and various body language styles by the male gender.

 

It is said that the eyes are the windows to the soul and often men are not very accomplished in being able to disguise their feeling well when it comes to the eyes. Making direct eye contact and holding the gaze is one definite way the male signals that he is interested in connecting with the other person. If eye contact is not dominant in the meeting, then chances are that he is not really interested in continuing or taking the initial contact to any other level.

 

The male stance is also another very telling and informing body language movement. Most male with an impressive stance that is shown through the squaring of the shoulders and a straight back position is their way of displaying a high level of confidence. The open stance is a good indication that he is open, confident, friendly and willing to be approached and this is an attractive feature and open sign to the female who may be interested in engaging in a conversation and connection.

 

Any show of emotion on the part of the male gender is usually taken as something to be seriously noted, as most males find it very difficult to show any sort of emotion and are usually very guarded in this area. Therefore taking a male’s emotional display for granted is not something that would be encouraged as this is probably a very rare display on his part and ridicule or disregard towards this display will not be well received and certainly remembered.

 

Be flirtatious with pickup-lines

There is a fine line between good pick-up lines and cheesy one that will end up working against the male instead of for. Therefore some careful consideration should be given to the circumstances, person and type of pick-up line chosen to be used at any given time.

 

Most males use the pickup line style to facilitate and create a possible gateway to connecting with someone they would like get to know further. Approaching someone in this style is fairly common and a popularly expected exercise from the male gender. Therefore having a good knowledge of pickup lines would be an advantage to arm one’s self with if making the initial contact is to be well received. Most suave men have fine-tuned this skill to perfection to ensure it comes across as genuine and sincere, thus allowing the female it is being addressed to, to feel special and delighted.

 

Energy is the key

Being an active and energetic person usually get the attention of all around and this is especially so if the individual is a male. Energetic males tend to give off positive vibes that most people are impressed with and ultimately attracted to.

 

The ultimate platform to display such energy is in the office environment, on the playing field where games are an ideal way to portray energy and in the gym. The most popular would be the gym as there is always the presence of the female gender if the gym caters to all types of customers.
