Irresistible: Eight Ways to Make Anyone Like You

Offer your seat to those who needs it more than you do.

And those who don’t need it more than you do. How would you know whether anyone standing in front of you needs a seat anyway? There’s no way you are psychic to tell whether that person needs that seat. So, to be a commendable commuter, just offer that seat to anyone you see standing right in front of you while you are sitting down. Offer it to the pregnant lady, that old woman, that teen girl who needs somewhere comfortable to put on her makeup, that lad who needs to lie back while listening to his headphones, that little boy who needs a playground on the train, even if it’s confined to a seat. Smiles guaranteed!

Stare at people wherever you go.

Everyone loves attention, no matter how hard they try to deny. Look at them straight in the eyes. In your eyes, you must portray the message to the person that is being stared that “You look wonderful”. Do it with a wink. Better still, blink both your eyes. Not just once. But as many times as possible. Follow the gaze of that person wherever he or she walks. Show someone you actually enjoy staring at them by putting on thick mascara, lengthen your eyelashes. The best way to stare is when you have a punched eye but you still stare with an innocent and longing look. They will find that to be very endearing.

Jog wherever you go.

Be it in the park, in the shopping mall, in the market, in the grocery store, jog from point to point, place to place. Show people you are not a time-waster. And you know your territory well. People will appreciate you for not blocking their paths and will envy the fact that you actually get to burn more calories than them. Show them you are serious about this. Put on a haversack and load it with books, weights, etc. Soon you will realize that your gym is anywhere under the sun. Or moon. And be sure to be oogled at once you attained those well-defined abs!

Be a superhero.

Spiderman has done it, so has Batman, Iron Man, Cat Woman, Superman. And aren’t they all immensely popular? First, think of what you want to be. Do you want to be bitten by a big big ant to be Ant Man? How about getting bitten by a hamster? Hamster Man? Flea Man? It really doesn’t have to be confined to the animal kingdom. You can be Her-man, with special powers from both female and male origins. You can be Wire Man! Twist your way through and save the world! It’s really up to your own preference. Think of who you want to be. Hope that whatever animal/insect you want to be personified with bites you by chance. However, in any case if you fail to morph into one, you can always go “manual”. Design your favourite suit and make it your own! Go learn some karate whatever. Get prepared to be idolized.

Go green.

Green is probably the most talked about color nowadays. Save the environment. Start from wearing green. Green shirt, green bermudas, green sneakers. Top it off with green cap, green shades, green smile(with vegetable residue perhaps?) Learn some camouflaging skills on the way. Pick plants along the way and flaunt your customized clothing. Attract colorful butterflies. Be a one-sight wonder. And yes, it will be best if your clothings are actually made up of big leaves, like in ancient times. That will definitely start a new trend. The good thing is, you don’t have to wait for the green man to cross the road. Cross it anytime as you are the green man yourself! Oh, and don’t forget about the grin!
