When it comes to dating, we would all love to have a handbook that tells us what guys want or more importantly, what will make them fall in love with us. The sooner the better, right? We want to know what guys like about us, but for the most part, we are often left confused. Funny thing is, they're probably more confused than women. Of course, we know the way we are supposed to act and the way we are supposed to look in order to hook a man, but there’s so much more to it than that. It's impossible to be perfect, but that’s not what guys want anyway.
One bad date after another, it can be hard to believe that there is any way to hook a guy in, but you would be so very wrong. There are still plenty of good guys out there, so don’t fret. These days, we have seen many women in the media and in real life that have hooked the man of their dreams and we often sit there and wonder how they did it.
So, what is it that hooks a man in? We decided to go to the source and ask ladies what they did to get their dream guy and how he managed to adore her for years. This is the real deal, so tune in to find out the 7 things that she does to hook you in.
7. SUPREME CONFIDENCE
You’ve seen them out there, the ladies that exude so much confidence that you start to wonder if they have ever had a bad day. These women seem to have control over every aspect of their lives and they are killing it. These women take what they want, get what they want, and never for a minute apologize for it, and guys love it. A guy loves a confident woman because not only is she badass, but it makes them feel like they landed a really big prize. Confident guys want a confident woman and they will have no problem pursuing one because a successful man wants a great girl on his arm and if she has a life of her own, that’s even more appealing. If you want to hook a good man in, then walk into the room like you own the place.
6. SHE'S GOT A GREAT SENSE OF HUMOUR
The last thing a guy wants is to date a girl where he feels like he always has to be on his best behavior. Guys like to have fun and usually want to be with a woman who can let loose and have a good laugh. Guys adore girls who are able to laugh not only at their stupid jokes, but at life as well. If you are walking on a sidewalk and you get splashed with water, isn’t it best just to laugh it off instead of brooding about it all day long? Guys love girls who can laugh because they are a lot of fun to be around. If you can laugh and have a good time with a guy, then you are sure to hook him in quickly because that’s the kind of girls that they want to spend time with.
5. THEY MAKE EYE CONTACT
Picture this: You’re at a bar and you see a girl at the other end of the bar. You make eye contact and gasp! She doesn’t look away. In fact, she nails you with her most seductive gaze and then smiles. A man would be nuts to let a girl like that walk away. Plus with such obvious interest on the other side of the bar, he feels confident enough to go over and talk to her. Girls hook guys in all the time with a simple look and seriously, sometimes that’s all it takes. It goes hand in hand with the confidence part. Men are intrigued by a woman who is so confident, she can maintain eye contact with a complete stranger. If you meet a girl like this one fellas, then you've already been hooked and reeled in.
4. TOUCHING THEM
Guys love when a woman touches them even in the slightest way. If a girl touches a man ever so slightly, it’s like an electric current that goes through them, making them want it even more. When a girl is out on a first date, if she happens to brush his hand or put her hand on his shoulder, it’s game over. He is hooked in seconds. There is just something sensual about a touch and it's a good way to see if there is any chemistry there. Girls who touch a man’s bicep, even in jest, tend to make men feel like superheroes. Seriously, guys love it. Any kind of touching seems to make a guy go crazy, so men be warned, if a girl touches you on a first date, then you aren’t going to have much time left until you're hooked.
3. TRYING NEW THINGS
One thing that hooks a guy in pretty easily is the fact that you can be open-minded about trying new things. Now, trying new things could be in the bedroom as well, but mainly we are talking about being adventurous and doing new things together. Guys like to go out and have fun and chances are, they want their lady to be able to go out with them. If the idea of trying something new terrifies you, maybe find some kind of a compromise. A guy wants an adventurous girl who join him when he wants to try something and suggests new things to do together. Regardless of what it is, if you are openminded, you will hook him in pretty easily.
2. HIS FRIENDS LOVE HER
There is nothing that builds up a man’s ego more than having his friends think his girlfriend is super cool. It’s not always the case, sometimes guys will vent to their friends about their girl and it’s hard for the friends to like her when she’s causing problems with their boy. But if a girl manages to win over his boys and makes them laugh, then that's definitely a good sign. Chances are, if you win the friends over as well, then your man won’t mind if you happen to crash poker night. There is nothing sexier than a girl who can play a mean hand of poker. If the guy you are dating asks you to meet his friends and the night is a hit, then chances are you've hooked him because his friends will be bragging about you after that.
1. SHE PAYS ATTENTION
When a girl pays attention to a guy that she really likes, she typically tends to give off that adoration vibe and guys are all over that. It goes back to that feeling of being a superhero. “When she brings up a very small detail that I once mentioned in passing very matter-of-factly, as though she takes everything I say genuinely and seriously. (And more importantly, that she listens, even to the small, stupid stuff.)” We told you, guys love when you pay attention because that means you listen to them which they really appreciate. Bring up something matter-of-factly and see how he reacts to it. He will probably be shocked that you remembered at all and that will really peak his interest about you. It’s just common practice to pay attention to anyone when they are talking to you, but if your guy sees you're genuinely interested in his words, it will go a long way.
