So, you’re interested in a relationship, but you're not getting asked out. What's going wrong? There are many possible reasons why you’re single with zero prospects. Maybe the people you like are already in relationships, or maybe some guys are too afraid to approach you. No matter the reason, there are simple ways to increase your chances of being asked out.
1 Look Your Best at All Times
You don't have to dress like you just stepped off the runway at a fashion show, but you should look presentable before stepping out the house. Whether you're going to the drugstore or dinner with friends, you never know who you might meet or see. First impressions are everything, and if you look your best, you increase your chances of being asked out. Some guys don’t approach girls who look sloppy and don’t care about their appearance.
2 Stand Tall
It might come as a surprise, but good posture can make you look more confident. Some guys consider confidence an attractive feature in girls. As you step outside your house, stand tall with your back and shoulders straight. Good posture not only makes you appear more confident, it can reduce back pain.
To increase your chances of being asked out, be approachable. If you walk around with a frown on your face and never smile, others will assume you don't want to be bothered. Also, guys might not approach if you're glued to your smartphone at all times. So put down the electronic devices and smile or laugh. The softer your appearance, the easier it'll be for someone to approach you.
4 Stop Seeking Attention
If you're the type of person who constantly seeks attention, your behavior might turn off guys. Coming on too strong and having to be the center of attention can make you appear unconfident or needy. You don't have to be the loudest person in the group to get noticed.
5 Make Subtle Eye Contact
If you’re uncomfortable approaching a guy you like, make eye contact to let him know you're interested. Don't stare or you might come off as creepy girl. Be natural and casually look in his direction and make eye contact for a couple of seconds before turning your gaze.
6 Spend Some Time Alone
If you’re with friends and hoping to be approached, spend a few minutes alone. Some guys are uncomfortable approaching a girl when she's with a group of friends. But if you sit by yourself for a few minutes or break away from the crowd, it’ll be easier for him to introduce himself and get to know you better.
7 Play the Damsel in Distress
I've never been a fan of playing the damsel in distress, but from what I've read, this is one way to get a guy’s attention and increase your chances of being asked out. You don’t have to act completely helpless. But if you want to get a guy’s attention, ask him to lift a heavy box for you, or grab an item you can’t reach from a shelf. Guys are natural protectors, so they’ll want to help. Besides, it's easier for them to approach a girl whose needs their assistance.
8 Be Yourself
In order to land the man of your dreams, you must be accepting of yourself. You have to know your flaws and face them head on. You'll be much more ready to meet someone else when you've really gotten to know yourself.
9 Lose the Idea of Perfection
Sure, we all want Mr. Right to be Mr. Perfect as well, but perfect doesn't exist. If you go out searching for the one and expect him to be perfect, you might miss out on the fact that the guy in front of you is Mr. Right, you just have too high of expectations.
10 Define Your Deal Breakers
While there's no such thing as perfection, you also need to know what you don't want. If you know what would break your ideal relationship, make sure your potential guy doesn't have these things in his roster.
The dating scene is tough, but if you know how to play the game and present yourself in the best light, you’ll increase your chances of being asked out. What are other tips for getting asked out?
Janicekitten Laugh and smile with no real reason, he'll think you're creepy lmao
Neda These 'tricks' don't always work for everyone... So it's hard to follow these 'tricks'. 😕
Nabila I think it's just cause I'm unattractive
Superhero How bout look for a GROWN UP. The little tricks you post are for teenagers. Confidence comes right along with posture and being approachable, if you have to play games to look that way you're not really confident, you're just faking it to get a guy. Get an education and a career, stay in shape, take good care of your hair and skin. Experienced men know if you are faking it after 2 dates.
Emmaline And be yourself!
peony Haha so it's a no win situation then. How about guys stop bring cowardly and approach a girl anyhow??I mean if a guy really I'd attracted to u he wouldn't give a hoot esp if he is confident why do u think there r a lot of ugly men with goodlooking women because they just went for it. Do I am woman be yourself and if a decent guy likes u then u will be asked out. However I do agree with the post be confident look good esp your posture but it takes two and u don't exactly want to attract a man who doesn't look after himself either. After all it does take two....
Carly With the eye contact thing- gotta say the majority of men don't notice that- gotta do it more than once
Jags Damsel in distress also comes across as being desperate
The By advantage I mean he might play with u if he is a bad guy or even a good guy .. Good guys turn bad believe me it happens all the time :p
The @alka if u act deprecate he will probably take advantage of ur desperation. I am not kidding happens all the time. (I just say that every time I need to prove something)
