Being confident means acting decisively and feeling comfortable with your physical appearance. In approaching a woman they find attractive, many men unfortunately lose this confidence. Even if you consider yourself a self-confident person, finding yourself in front of a beautiful and unknown woman, you may realize that you have lost faith in yourself. Showing yourself confident in front of a woman can be a double-edged sword. If you show that you feel too confident, you may end up looking like a cocky man, which some women don't like. Read the steps below to understand how you can look confident without going overboard.
Steps
Step 1. Dress well and take care of your face and body
- Wear classy clothes that make you feel comfortable. Choose a style and stick to that from the tip of your shoes to the tie. Make yourself charming by adding a personal touch to your outfit. This could be an extravagant tie, a peculiar watch, or an out of the ordinary belt. By imprinting your personality on the clothes you wear, you will show that you feel confident in yourself.
- Adjust beard, mustache, goatee, etc. so that you have a well-groomed appearance. Having a tidy face and beard will give you a feeling of freshness and you will feel much safer than looking like someone who has just got out of bed.
-
Trim your nails, remove the hair in your ears and nose, and wash your hair. If you have a habit of styling your hair, do it. Avoid trying extreme hairstyles to try to impress a woman. You may have doubts about your new style and this will make you feel less confident.
- Try to speak at least fifty percent slower. When you are nervous, your voice tends to rise by an octave and you start speaking faster without realizing it.
- Focus on staying calm when you speak. If you reflect on what you are saying, you will necessarily have to speak more slowly. This will also help you not to talk nonsense or make a few blunders.
- Don't hesitate while you're talking to her. Don't go off the rails. After answering a question from him, do not continue talking unnecessarily to avoid an awkward silence.
Step 2. Smile often
Practice in the mirror to smile heartily. A genuine smile doesn't have to be too broad or tacky. You will feel comfortable doing this and others will not think it is strange. A smile made with the heart flaunts confidence and a laugh does it even more
Step 3. Maintain eye contact
Keep looking at the woman in front of you for as long as she is talking to you or you are talking to her. Unsure men have shifty eyes that don't know where to look. When a woman speaks directly to a man who has no confidence in himself, the man has a lot of trouble staring directly into her eyes. This shows that he is nervous
Step 4. Try not to think too much about how you are behaving
- Be aware of the meaning of the sentences you say, but don't examine every word that comes out of your mouth with the microscope before saying it or after saying it.
- Try not to think too much about simple actions like pouring a drink or lifting a glass to bring it to your mouth. Thinking too much about these basic actions will cause you to focus too much on them, putting yourself under pressure and risking making mistakes that you wouldn't otherwise make.
Step 5. Remember to breathe
Speak and breathe normally. When they are nervous, many people sometimes start holding their breath without realizing it. When they finally try to catch their breath they find themselves forced to blurt out rather than speak normally because they no longer have breath in their bodies
Step 6. Pay attention to your posture
- Stand as straight as you can. Bring your shoulders back and lift your head. If there is one thing that can help you more than any other to appear confident, it is maintaining perfect posture.
- People who have a sagging posture seem sloppy, unkempt and shy. You will immediately feel more confident once your posture is corrected.
