Hey I always wanted to do this so: 1. Reciprocal Self-Disclosure 0:35 Sharing your intimate thoughts and feelings (mutually) 2. The Ben Franklin Effect 1:22 After helping someone you like them more (ask them small favors ex. advice/opinion) 3. Similar Attraction Theory 2:16 We are more attracted to people that are similar to us (bring attention to things in common) Please be yourself though, you are amazing disclaimer: don't use those to manipulate people

Also, if your crush doesn't have a phone number or doesn't feel comfortable giving it out, then don't push them to do it by asking them all the time. Instead, show interest in wanting to talk to them or see them virtually or in person...without sounding creepy.

@Meekox Год назад

As a person that’s been to more dates than I want to admit, I think there is one very simple thing that even I often tend to forget when texting. You are having a conversation with another human. I know it sounds stupid but often I get caught up forcing a conversation and drying up the conversation myself when I should realise that you are only half of the conversation. If they answer you always with a one liner or send you a reply once a week you shouldn’t waste your time forcing yourself in to it. Just know if you are interested to a person and they are equally interested aswell you usually can struck up a conversation about anything. Once I even talked half an hour about paint drying and it was amazing!

@DeRez19 Год назад

So true.

@ondradvorak Год назад

Totally agree! Forced conversations are not the right thing how to find someone. If the other person replies with one word or after several days, there is just no interest in you. Take your things and go to find someone better. Trust me, it's not worth it. If that other person is the right one, your chatting will be much easier, nice and natural. I can say it by me own experience. My best relationships started exactly like that and those beginnings were so interesting, funny and just lovely. Exactly like with my current girlfriend, we are together for several years now, we have beautiful little daughter and our talks are still funny and interesting after all those years.

@balsamon69 5 месяцев назад

This. So much this. I may have not been to many dates, but i deduced something similar. Though, sometimes, it can be hard to remember this, under the effects of lust and all

@jasongotcello Год назад

@Mentally_Better Год назад

Human beings are complex and simple at the same time. In order to take advantage of the latter, you just have to be honest and direct about what you want to say. In terms of texting, getting someone’s attention is still complicated, especially when they’re entertaining more than one person through the tiny screen in the palm of their hand.

@mari-gt8hp Год назад

my advice is just to be yourself and NEVER try to act like someone you're not. because if they do end up liking you, it's not really you they love it's the fake persona you made for them. if you be yourself, you'll attract the right person and they'll love you wholeheartedly for the person you are inside

@vesselling Год назад

Great advice and video! I myself don't have a crush nor their contact info, though the best way to casually get someone's email and phone number is by treating it casually, by asking in a group. You could ask for all of your friend's contact info so you could make a group chat, and there'd be no reason to refuse.

Keep that friendship going, after a rejection you can become closer on a non romantic basis if you enjoy their company no matter what type of company that may be. I did this with mine and we are much closer despite me no longer romantically pursuing them because they arent ready for it/arent sure of their own feelings but despite this we are still great friends.

@OValger 5 месяцев назад

I really like this advice, but it only works if you are surrounded by multiple single people of the targeted gender who are also of an appropriate age, have similar values and political views. Which is what ruins that for many progressive women in the developing world countries who are surrounded by men who want a free servant with no self-esteem around. Very often, if you are struggling - do your statistics, know who you are and where you are. There is no use fishing in a river without fish, you need to find a good place first.

I'm a huge introvert, but I also really like this girl and I absolutely do not want to come off as boring.. these tips could be major help!

@Madcheese22 Год назад

In many ways I had a swapped role of this. Someone I was talking to continually said they were enjoying our conversations and was interested in me - but I wish they would have watched this video because if that was the case I wasn't receiving any of that downrange at all. They never seemed interested - dry two word answers, never asking about me or telling me about themselves, aside from the first week of flirting. So I concluded we just had wildly different communication styles and expectations and decided it wasn't for me. An hour later this video pops up on my feed haha YT well played.

Maybe take it easy on the questions at the beginning. That way, news tidbits will still be interesting, like discovering your BF/GFs favourite foods. Also, some question will make the other uncomfortable, so stay away from these areas till he/she gets close enough to you. Sharing personal things can be fun too. There's always something new to find out ^_^ I fully agree about the Similarity attracts part too. There's a saying that always stuck with me. "Birds of a feather flock together". Opposites attract but I had to find out the hard way that relationships don't endure if the other one is wired totally different. Love can bridge a lot but not everything.
