How to behave when you're around girls

Whether you're trying to approach a girl you haven't met or you're striving to maintain your 'cool' in front of a girl you're interested in, one thing is for sure: talking to girls can sometimes be challenging! But if you remember that girls are just like anyone else in your life, being around them won't seem so intimidating. With confidence in yourself and some basic communication skills, you'll feel more at ease and comfortable around any girl.

Be yourself. When you want to win a girl's heart, changing your personality won't help! Even if it works for a while, you'll feel fake and unfulfilled; moreover, she will likely realize your true self eventually. You need to know who you really are. Take control of your thoughts and feelings in life. Sincerity and confidence are what attract girls and will also make you feel proud of yourself.

• Don’t be too generous or overly eager to win her affection. This can come off as insincere or even rude – definitely not the image you want to project!
• Don’t focus too much on pleasing girls. Accept your flaws and don’t let them make you uneasy.
• If you love yourself and are comfortable with who you are, you'll be at ease around others. And even if things don’t go as planned, it’s not a big deal! Only you can make yourself happy. Loving yourself is the most important thing.

Maintain cleanliness. Keeping yourself clean will not only make you look more presentable but also help you feel more comfortable. Shower every morning and don't forget to wash your hair. Use deodorant and put on fresh clothes before heading out. Surely, you wouldn't want to worry about smelling bad when you're around girls! Keeping your body fresh ensures that never happens.

• You can spritz a little cologne on your neck and shoulders. If you're using perfume, remember: less is more! You definitely don't want to overwhelm everyone around you with a strong scent!

Dress neatly. If possible, go out and find a few outfits that suit you. Clothes don't need to be expensive, but they should fit well and be comfortable. Aside from enhancing your appearance, the clothes you wear help boost your confidence and allow you to focus on the girls without worrying about your look.

• You can observe those around you to get an idea of current fashion trends, but remember, a great outfit should express your unique style.
• Don't hesitate to ask salespeople for their opinion. A polite inquiry will often lead to helpful suggestions on what might suit you best.

Engage in activities you enjoy. You can have fun with girls by participating in activities they enjoy, but don't forget to carve out time for yourself to continue pursuing things you like. If you're into sci-fi movies or comic books, go ahead and indulge! Never be embarrassed by your passions! Following your interests will make you happier, more authentic, and a more pleasant person to be around.

• When you're in love, it's natural to be captivated by the girl you're interested in. However, it's important to occasionally step back and give yourself space to focus on your own hobbies, whether it's sports or gaming.

Relax. Your stress can also make the girl tense. If you keep searching for a conversation topic or trying to escape an awkward moment, you won't be able to focus on her. Take a deep breath before approaching her or during moments of silence. Focus on the present moment and remind yourself that nothing bad will happen, as most likely, everything will be fine.

• Almost everyone is busy with their own lives and doesn't intentionally try to embarrass or make you uncomfortable. Don't worry, even if you think you've made a mistake or acted awkwardly; chances are, others will forget about it right away.

Be honest about your intentions. Starting as friends with a girl you're interested in is a good idea, but if you have feelings for her, don't keep them hidden. Make an effort to pursue a relationship and show genuine interest in her. If you conceal your feelings, she won't know your intentions and may feel misled or disrespected once she finds out. On the other hand, don't lead her to believe you want something more if you're only looking for friendship. Remember the timeless truth: honesty is the best policy!

• Respect her boundaries. Don't pressure her if she's not reciprocating your feelings. She will appreciate your understanding and might prefer to maintain a friendship, even if she doesn't return your feelings.

Maintain eye contact. When approaching a girl and starting a conversation, look into her eyes. This shows your confidence, and your eye contact while she speaks shows that you're listening to her. However, avoid staring, especially when you're not talking to her. Just enough to let her know you're paying attention before shifting your gaze elsewhere.

• Don't worry if it feels a bit awkward at first. Eye contact can be challenging for anyone! To practice, start with a mirror, then move on to practicing with friends and strangers.
• Eye contact isn't easy, but it helps you avoid being caught staring at her body. Moreover, looking into someone's eyes is a polite gesture that fosters connection and shows respect and genuine interest in her.

Engage her in conversation. Greet her just like you would anyone else: say hello and introduce a suitable topic to talk about. Some conversation starters to break the initial awkwardness include commenting on her outfit, discussing a shared class, complimenting her on her grades, or offering to help her with something.

• Practice regularly to build your confidence around girls and steer the conversation toward more intimate topics. Everyone enjoys a good conversation, and you'll leave a lasting impression on the girls with your confidence and sociability.

Listen actively. Listening and understanding the subtle hints from the girl will help you win her favor. Put your phone down and make an effort to comprehend everything she says. Avoid interrupting. Show you care by nodding and responding when she finishes speaking. No one wants to talk to someone who isn't listening, so be sure to maintain this courtesy when conversing with any girl.

• Repeat what she said, like, 'You just mentioned...' to show that you're grasping the main points of the conversation.
• When responding to her, always maintain a respectful attitude, avoiding judgment no matter how you feel. Take the time to consider her thoughts and opinions before replying to demonstrate your depth of understanding.

Show genuine interest in others. To build trust between you and a girl, you need to communicate at a more personal level. Ask about her interests, hobbies, and dreams. Let her know you're eager to understand her better. This will not only make you appear more confident, but also help her feel more at ease around you. Another benefit is that you won’t feel pressured to constantly find things to talk about: all you need to do is ask questions and listen!

• For instance, a good question might be asking about her favorite music genre. If she likes the same music as you, you can bond over that. Even if your music tastes differ, you can still say, 'I’ve never really listened to that genre. Could you recommend a few songs for me?'

Pay attention to her feelings. When you show interest in a girl's life, she might open up to you about her struggles. This indicates that she truly trusts you, so it's important to listen with empathy and respond in a compassionate way. Never make her feel judged or ridiculed – you wouldn't want that for yourself, and you know she wouldn't either.

• For instance, you could say, 'It's okay, that test was really tough. You did great though.'
• Support her goals. If she aspires to be a photographer, encourage her, even if you might have different thoughts inside. Say, 'That's amazing! It's wonderful that you have such big dreams!'

Make her laugh. Humor is an effective way to charm and attract. Engaging in playful jokes with girls helps ease the awkwardness as you get to know each other and opens the door for more serious conversations later. You don’t need to be a natural comedian, and you definitely shouldn’t pretend to be one! Just try to spark light-hearted conversations or share funny anecdotes from your past to make her laugh and break the ice.

• However, not every joke is suitable for every situation. For example, avoid telling crude jokes in front of a girl you just met.
• As you get to know each other more, you'll start to learn what she finds funny and begin to share private jokes just between the two of you. Be patient and see how you both vibe with each other. Soon enough, you'll both be laughing together!

Respect her personal space. A handshake is enough when you first meet a girl. Be relaxed and always behave appropriately: don't stalk her, don't invade her personal space, and avoid touching inappropriate areas like her face. As you develop a relationship, be aware of how much physical contact she's comfortable with. Start by lightly brushing against her hand and shoulder when talking, and stand closer when the opportunity arises, like during parties or concerts.

• If you're looking for a romantic connection, gradually increase the physical contact in a natural way. You can then try hugging and flirting if she’s receptive.
• Never touch her if she’s not comfortable. Respect her boundaries and step back if she seems uneasy.

Be polite. Show graceful gestures in front of girls. Inappropriate actions like swearing, farting, or telling crude jokes will certainly drive them away. Show respect and politeness by holding the door open for others, always saying 'please' and 'thank you'.

Đối xử với mọi người như nhau. Nói chuyện với tất cả mọi người – từ các cậu bé đến những người lạ - cũng như nói chuyện với một cô gái. Tỏ sự tôn trọng và tử tế, đồng thời lắng nghe họ nói. Tránh gây sự - bạo lực không phải là cách hay để gây ấn tượng với bất cứ ai! Khi các cô gái ở gần đó, họ sẽ thấy bạn thành thực và chín chắn như thế nào.

• Việc tranh cãi hoặc đối đầu với một người mà bạn không thích quả là không dễ dàng, nhưng bạn cần cố gắng tránh để cảm xúc bùng nổ. Hít thở sâu và kiểm soát những lời bạn nói ra. Sau tất cả những lời nói và việc làm của mình, bạn sẽ tự hào với bản thân vì đã chọn cách xử sự đúng, ngay cả khi không có mặt cô gái ở đó để bạn gây ấn tượng!

Không nói xấu sau lưng người khác. Nói xấu người vắng mặt cũng gây tác động tương tự như cuộc chạm trán mặt đối mặt, thậm chí đôi khi còn tệ hơn! Bạn nên tránh các câu chuyện ngồi lê đôi mách. Khi chia sẻ các thông tin tiêu cực, bạn sẽ có vẻ như thiếu chín chắn trong mắt các cô gái và còn khiến họ tự hỏi liệu bạn có nói về họ như vậy không khi họ không có mặt ở đó. Bạn cần giữ thái độ tôn trọng vào mọi lúc có thể.

• Mặt khác, bạn cùng đừng nói những điều tiêu cực về các cô gái hoặc tiết lộ những bí mật của họ với bạn bè của bạn. Thông tin này có thể đến tai họ và khi đó bạn sẽ mang tiếng xấu. Hãy cho họ thấy rằng bạn là người đáng tin cậy, và họ sẽ sớm xem bạn là một người bạn trung thành.

• Đừng hoảng hốt khi bạn lỡ cư xử vụng về. Hãy nhận lỗi, cười và phản ứng với sự hài hước. Việc xử lý tình huống một cách nhẹ nhàng sẽ giúp bạn và những người xung quanh bạn thoải mái hơn, trong đó có cả các cô gái.
• Đặc biệt nhẹ nhàng khi ở bên cạnh những cô gái nhút nhát. Bắt chuyện và phá vỡ rào cản đụng chạm một cách từ từ. Dành một khoảng không gian cho cô ấy.
• Chú ý đến ngôn ngữ cơ thể của cô ấy để đoán được cảm giác của nàng và biết mình nên cư xử như thế nào.
• Nếu muốn tạo mối quan hệ tình cảm với cô ấy, bạn đừng ngại thử tán tỉnh một chút! Tuy nhiên bạn cần nhớ lùi lại nếu cô ấy có vẻ không thích hoặc không thoải mái.
• Trừ khi có cam kết giữa bạn và cô gái, bạn không nên ghen tuông khi cô ấy ở bên cạnh những người khác.
• Nhớ tỏ ra thân thiện với bạn bè và gia đình của cô ấy, bất kể bạn nghĩ về họ như thế nào.
• Đứng lên bảo vệ cô gái khi có thể, nhưng đừng bị lôi cuốn vào trận ẩu đả.
• Bước đi một cách tự tin, và đừng ngại nhìn vào mắt cô gái của bạn.
• Nếu cô ấy buồn thì bạn hãy động viên và tỏ ra vui vẻ để cô ấy cũng vui theo, vậy nên bạn có thể nói đùa hay kể chuyện vui.

• Never pressure a girl into physical contact or a relationship if she isn't ready for it.
• If you try too hard to hide your feelings or impress the girl, it will likely be noticed and could make you feel uncomfortable.
