How do You Attract Men?

We've all witnessed a man magnet: she is the woman who can walk into a room and instantly all the single men in proximity gather round her. Maybe she's beautiful, but often, it's something else that makes her so irresistible. So, what's the secret of these man magnets, and can the rest of us learn their tricks?

The short answer is, it's possible for any of us to be a man magnet. The key is being open to meeting men and making yourself approachable. There are many ways we close ourselves off from potential love interests. By being more aware of your own tendencies in social situations and trying something new, you can revamp your love life. Following are some specific tips.

Make eye contact. I've said it before, but it's worth repeating. Men look at eye contact as a signal that it's okay to approach, so if you're avoiding it or looking away, don't expect them to come closer.

Don't isolate yourself. If you're at a party with friends, do you tend to stay with them rather than going off on your own to introduce yourself to others? Instead of staying in your comfort zone surrounded by people you know, draw other people in and circulate. Putting yourself out there is a necessary step to making yourself approachable and becoming the woman who men want to meet.

Have fun. If you're in a bad mood, stressed from work or frustrated with dating, this will come across to the people around you even if you don't talk about your troubles. Energy and body language can attract or repel. Remember to smile and lighten up. Check in with yourself before you go out, and be sure to leave your negativity at home.

Be comfortable in your own skin. Feeling insecure? So does everyone else, so don't worry about it so much. Instead of wondering how you're coming across, or what others think about you, know that you are unique and wonderful and there's nobody quite like you. When you embrace who you are, others can't help but be attracted and want to get to know you.

Compliment and flirt! It's true that women tend to get complimented frequently compared to men. The truth is, we all like it when someone notices how we look, so why not return the favor and flatter the men around you? There's nothing wrong with a little flirtatious banter. They will be sure to take notice.
