8 Sure-Fire Ways to Get a Girl to Like You

You can get a girl to like you by following some basic 'get a girl' rules. Following are 8 rules to live by when you are trying to get a girl to like you.

1. Don't Chase Her, Pursue Her

When you pursue a girl you are trying to get her to notice you and like you, but when you chase a girl you can cross a line into looking like a stalker and obsessive. Once you cross that line it can be hard to get back on the other side, so avoid chasing her as though she is a mission to accomplish and instead pursue her as something you would like in your life.

2. Be Independent

Girls want a guy who can be independent and self-sufficient. If you act as though you can't make your own decisions or rely solely on other people to guide you through your day then you will become less attractive in a girls eyes, but if you are independent and live your life by your own set of rules then she will be attracted to that.

3. Show Her That You Value Her Opinion

Women like to be heard and valued. When she talks, listen. When she gives you an opinion do not brush it off as stupid or not important to you. Instead let her know that you value her views and what she says matters to you.

4. Do not Complain, Criticize, or Be Pessimistic

Most people we talk to throughout the day will be negative in some way or another. In fact, most conversations are started this way! If you can avoid talking negatively and instead be a positive influence that she see's throughout her day then you will stand out from the rest of the guys who are trying to get her attention.

5. Flirt with Her

Let her know that you are into her so she is not wondering whether or not she will make a fool of herself if she tries to make a move on you. If you avoid flirting with her then she may think that you are not interested in her that way, and instead of risking rejection she may avoid you altogether.

6. Don't Give up on Her Too Quickly

While you don't want to chase her forever, you also don't want to give up after a few conversations with her. You may think she's not interested so you stop pursuing her and move on to someone else, but you may have given up too early and you were on the verge of getting her to like you! Many women play hard to get because they think that's what they are supposed to do, so if you give up just before she is done playing hard to get then you will miss your chance with her.

Also, attraction can be sparked by one certain word, look, or action, and you may not have given her that certain gesture or word yet. Tomorrow she may see something in you that she can't resist, and you will never know if you give up now.

7. Boost Her Self-Esteem

Everyone likes someone who makes them feel good about themselves. If you can make her feel prettier, smarter, or really talented then you will have a good chance of making her like you. So make sure you give her some compliments while you talk to her, and always give her credit where credit is due!

8. Be Comfortable to Be Around

If she finds it easy to talk to you and be around you then you have a much better chance of getting her to like you then if you are hard to talk to you or if she is nervous around you. You can make her feel comfortable by letting her be herself when she's around you.
