You don’t have to be tall, dark, handsome, and rich to be a ladies’ man. Just learn to recognize what women want.
You Will NeedSome female friends
A little wit
A little generosity
Lots of loyalty
Step 1: Get yourself some wing-women
Get yourself some wing-women. Men who are surrounded by attentive ladies instantly become more attractive to other women.
Be macho if you want to play the field, but find your sensitive side if you’re looking for true love.
Step 2: Pay her lots of compliments
Pay your lady lots of compliments – flattery will get you everywhere.
Step 3: Learn to tell a joke
Learn to tell a joke. A whopping 93% of women are looking for a guy who can make them laugh.
Step 4: Give her your undivided attention
Whenever you’re together, give her your undivided attention. Who doesn’t love to be the center of attention?
Step 5: Always pick up the check
Always pick up the check—and for goodness’ sake don’t dither about it. Women love a guy who “automatically” pays for dinner.
Step 6: Work toward owning a home
If you’re not yet a homeowner, work toward that goal. Research shows that a man who owns a home is five times more attractive than one who doesn’t.
Step 7: Show your fondness for children
Show your fondness for children. Research shows that—not surprisingly—women are drawn to men who seem like they’d be good dads.
Step 8: Tone your body
Work out just enough to be in slightly better shape than the average Joe. Most women prefer “toned” guys over muscle-bound hulks.
Step 9: Be faithful
Be faithful. For most women, fidelity trumps attractiveness, health, wealth, and social status – every time.
