How to Use Your Body Language to Attract a Potential Mate

Roger C.
The subject of attraction is so broad that would take an entire encyclopedia to explain all of its underlying elements, but one aspect that is crucial and yet many times overlooked, is the importance of body language.

When men seek advice in the dating world they usually go looking for the famous "pick up lines". The truth is that there isn't a magical phrase that makes women feel attracted to you; come on, if there was such thing everybody would be using it and 30 year old virgins would not exist.
Pick up lines on their own never work for several reasons. One is that they are canned phrases that don't look natural which is a turn-off for most women, but the main reason they won't work is that words on their own account for only 7% of the communication.

The remaining 93% of the communication happening between a man and a woman comes from voice tone and body language. Voice tone accounts for about 30% while body language is responsible for 63% of the communication! No wonder why the best pick up line in the world delivered by a nervous boy will repel any women in sight.

It is important to know this when you approach women because you'll be more aware of what you are communicating. The key here is to try to be as relaxed and confident as possible. It is well known that most females feel attracted to confident men, so a nervous behavior will kill your chances of getting laid, so you must project confidence not with your words, but with your body.

There are thousands of small cues in body language that women use to analyze their potential mate. All this is done in seconds by a subconscious process, and by the way, women are about 10 times better at reading body language than men. But there are general guidelines that confident and dominant people follow without being aware of it that make them look strong in others eyes.

A major test women use to qualify their mates is eye contact. I included this in the body language category because it is crucial. A long and conspicuous look between two people can initiate a spark of attraction. When you see a woman you feel attracted to and your eyes meet, avoid looking away immediately. This is a sign of insecurity; instead, stare at her eyes until she looks away, or for a few seconds if she doesn't (you don't want to be the creepy stalker guy staring at her), then give her a sly smile and look away slowly.

Another trait shared by most confident people is moving slowly. Try to make all your movements slow and deliberate and girls will notice. Think about James Bond, or Tom Cruise when you do this; they are among the most attractive men in the word and their movements are always slow and deliberate.
Take some space. A dominant person requires a large area. When you sit make yourself comfortable, lay back, open your legs, and try to sit a bit asymmetric and natural. Do the same when you're standing; put all your weight in one leg and be cool and relaxed; with your thumbs in either your front or back pockets, and be straight to show the world who's the boss.

Speak slowly and with a low voice tone. Don't talk through your nose, instead use your throat to do it, and please avoid sounding like you're faking it. If you do it correctly, your voice will naturally sound deeper, more powerful and of course way more sexy.

Keep all of this in mind when you're on the dating scene and you'll be improving your game. Practice until it becomes a second nature to you; it might take a little time but is well worth it and the girls will definitely notice!
