Lifestyle: Tired of chasing? How to make a guy want you instead
So, you like a guy but you’re not sure how to get his attention and get him hooked. But don’t stress out, here is how to make a guy want you.
Not all of us look like Angelina Jolie, and honestly, it’s a good thing we don’t or else everything would be too easy. Where’s the chase? Where’s the strategic planning?
How to make a guy want you
Yeah, don’t deny it, I know you know his every move. If you’ve been eyeing a guy and you want him, well, there are a couple of things you can do to help avert his attention in the right direction… you know… in YOUR direction. So, it’s time to switch your method up and read about these 15 ways to learn how to make a guy want you.
#1 Confidence. This is huge and probably the most important factor in learning how to make a guy want you. You need to be confident, and you need to show that you love yourself.
There’s a reason why men drop their jaws when they see a woman walking confidently down the street – she is spewing sex appeal and confidence. She doesn’t need them, and that’s what makes her sexy as hell. If you want the guy, you need to think that you don’t need the guy. [Read: What guys really like in a girl besides her appearance]
#2 Body language is key. Have you ever seen a couple sitting at the bar? They’re facing each other, leaning forward with feet pointing in the other’s direction.
Before you even have to open your mouth, you can signal your feelings to him through body language and wait to see if he responds by copying your body language. I know it sounds a little off, but you’d be amazed by how it works.
#3 Build up the excitement. You want to make him excited and get his adrenaline pumping. The best way to get him aroused is to do a fun activity that forces the adrenaline to rush through his body.
This could be riding a roller coaster or going bungee-jumping. Believe it or not, excitement stimulates attractiveness and arousal, so get that parachute on. [Read: How to get a guy to like you effortlessly in no time]
#4 Copy him. This might sounds like a weird strategy when learning how to make a guy want you. But basically, what you want to do is mimic and mirror them. You won’t have to try too hard with this one.
When you hang out with someone more and more, you end up developing similar mannerisms like listening to the same music, etc. You may not even realize it, but you’ll eventually start even copying their gestures.
#5 Open up to him. You can only talk about the rain for so many minutes until it’s time to get into a deeper conversation. If you can’t open up to him, well, he won’t open up to you, and then you won’t be able to develop a connection.
But, that means one of you will have to make the first move in opening up. It can be scary, but if you feel that you can trust him as a person, then you should be able to share something personal about yourself. [Read: How to make a guy like you by making him want you]
#6 Be around him. Now, don’t be stalking him, that’s not what I’m trying to get at with this one. You want to be around him and spend time with him. The more time you spend with someone, the more attracted you become.
Why do celebrities always end up dating people they’ve done movies with? Because they just spent all day, every day, for the past six months with that one person. So, it only makes sense. Try to hang out with him in a group or if you can, solo. I guess this is one of the more obvious strategies for how to make a guy want you.
#7 Relate to him. People like being around those who understand them. So this case isn’t any different. Now, don’t go crazy with this, but find out some things that he’s interested in and get a conversation going about one of these topics.
But, the trick is, you should actually be interested in the topic or else it’ll show that you’re bored talking about vintage cars or hockey. However, once you found a topic, you’ll have something to discuss and he’ll see that you have a common interest. [Read: How to talk to a guy and make him like you]
#8 Keep a little mystery. This is a great lesson in how to make a guy want you. Men like mystery, women like mystery – that’s why we love the chase. So, right now, you’re trying to lure the guy in and grab his attention.
You want to be a little mysterious. Don’t be completely silent, however, don’t give him everything he wants. Keep some information to yourself – it’ll make him even more curious about you. [Read: Why men love the chase – How to use it in your favor]
#9 Reduce the drama. Listen, men are dramatic. They’re worse than women, at least I think so. But, one thing I know is that they don’t like listening to female gossip. If a guy doesn’t like another guy, he makes it clear.
But we women aren’t that upfront with our emotions, thus, it turns into gossip. So, instead of telling him your daily gossip news, call your best friend and unleash it onto them. It’s better that way, especially if you’re unable to not spread gossip.
The bottom line is: don’t gossip because it makes you look like an asshole. [Read: How to get a guy to notice you and fall for you]
#10 Work your feminine side. Being feminine isn’t a negative trait. People always think it means that the woman is fragile and weak, but that isn’t what femininity is. You can wear a dress and makeup and still be a strong woman.
It’s okay to tap into your feminine side and sit with your legs closed or chew with your mouth shut. These things don’t make you a weak woman. So, throw out those misconceptions and if you feel like showing your feminine side, then show it. Plus, men appreciate a woman who is strong and can still look like a woman.
#11 Don’t be clingy. For the love of God, if you want to learn how to make a guy want you, then do NOT be clingy! Yeah, remember that guy who texted you once and then he texted you again and again and again until you finally answered him? That relationship didn’t go too far, eh? People, in general, don’t like clingy people.
It makes them feel suffocated. Men are people. They don’t want a woman who is dependent and constantly needs attention and confirmation. So, if you want him to become interested in you, hang out with him, text him, do all those things.
However, don’t become suffocating. Let him ask you to hang out and start the conversation sometimes. [Read: Ways to make a man fall in love with you instantly]
#12 Get his nose sniffing. Why don’t you attract him with your scent? Sounds a little animalistic, right? But, at the end of the day, that’s what we are. So, spritz a little of your favorite perfume on – a little, let’s not smell like the entire bottle – and make him go crazy for that sexy and sensual scent. Scientifically proven strategy on how to get a guy to want you.
#13 Flirt, but not too much. Flirt – I highly recommend it because it’s fun and you can push the boundaries while keeping it in the fun zone. But don’t go too far with the flirtatious boundaries. You want to pull him and keep him interested.
Flirt and then pull back a little – you’re trying to get him to chase you. If you lay out all of your best flirtatious moves right away, well, you won’t last long. If you want him, you’re going to have to take control of the situation. [Read: How to make a guy jealous and get his attention]
#14 Have your own life. The worst thing that can happen is letting him see that he’s the only thing that’s going on in your life. Even if that’s true, you can’t let him know that. Guys are interested in girls who are usually busy making plans for themselves.
You need to have your own life and activities that don’t include him. It not only will give you self-confidence, but it shows that he’s not your first priority – even though you’d like him to be.
Never make a guy your number one. That is something you always need to remember, but especially when learning how to make a guy want you. [Read: How men fall in love – The 7 stages of love for men]
#15 Compliment him. Don’t go overboard on this or else you can look desperate. But complimenting a guy never hurt anyone. In fact, they’ll not only feel good, but they’ll notice that you’re noticing things about them.
Maybe he got a new haircut or is wearing a great-smelling cologne. So, just tell him what you think. He may take that as a sign that you’re interested in him, and well, that’s what you wanted.
