Build Familiarity
- Walk within arm’s reach of your target on your way to the bathroom, the kitchen, the keg or the bar. Repeat several times.
- Studies prove that we like things simply because we’ve seen them before.
Draw Attention to Yourself
- When you are near your prey, drop something—a napkin, a glove, a watch. Bend down and pick it up.
- We notice moving objects, even when we can see them only out of the corners of our eyes.
Show Interest
- Lift one shoulder and cock your head to the side.
- Anthropologists call this the “cute response.” For both sexes it says, “I’m interested.” It also says, “I’m adorable.”
Be Vulnerable
- Wear an open shirt, and touch your neck and collarbone.
- A neck-touch is as appealing to men as it is to women. You are literally pointing out a weak spot.
Follow Your Partner
Psychology Today.
- If he scratches his head, you scratch your head. If he does the funky chicken, you do the funky chicken.
- Isopraxism, moving in unison, is based on a deep-seated instinct to copy the actions of those we find attractive.
I don’t know very English but I know very much Spanish and I suppose you don’t know very Spanish but you know very English because you are American but I am not American.

Perhaps it was a passing moment of madness after all. There is no trace of it any more. My odd feelings of the other week seem to me quite ridiculous today: I can no longer enter into them. I am quite at ease this evening, quite solidly terre-a-terre in the world.
