Senior Don Juan
Everyone wants to be James Bond. I think I can speak for everyone when I say we’ve all imagined ourselves being calm, debonair, and, well, suave just like Agent 007. And he’s not the only one: there are many men throughout our culture who are known for being kind, polite, and charming to women.
But how does one achieve this level of standard without falling into the dreaded “Nice Guy” category?
Here are a few ways to do this.
1. Never insult other men.
Many men out there think that making other men look worse will increase their chances with a woman. But this is an alarm bell in a girl’s brain: this guy is mean. And not in a sexy “bad boy” way either. Have respect for your fellow human beings.
2. Stay away from “inappropriate” humor.
If you’ve noticed, every cool guy in the movies who seems to pick up women effortlessly never actually makes “sex” jokes. That is what the other characters on the screen are for. The main character is a charming man that all the ladies love: not a perv. These jokes can be funny occasionally, but they hurt your image more than they help it.
3. Have a sense of humor.
#2 being said, you do need to be funny. Always have a few jokes up your sleeves, but not too many. You don’t want to be that guy that just jokes around all the time, because you’re in danger of being friendzoned.
4. Be “Old-Fashioned”
Girls love an old-fashioned guy. On your first date, agree to not be casual, and wear a suit coat. It can be a blazer or a sports coat if you like, or a tux. But just look neat and nice. Also, hold every door for the girl (without being intrusive or creepy). Girls, for some reason, absolutely fall to pieces when you hold the car door open for them while they climb in. Something about it makes them want to fall into your arms.
Have confidence, because low levels of confidence are the sort of thing that will land you in the friendzone!
