I saw the picture of a woman proposing to her
man a few days ago and a lot of women have
been bashing this woman for getting on one knee
and proposing. They think this is a man’s
“responsibility” and only he should be taking this
step.
I totally disagree. Anybody can propose to
anybody, there are risks involved regardless of
who gets down on one knee and pops the almighty
question. However, that is not the point of this
article.
The point of this article is to nudge a woman who
wants to strike the first conversation with a man,
in the right direction.
But if you are a woman or man who thinks women
shouldn’t propose, women shouldn’t talk to a man
first, women should take a century to play hard to
get and women should never take some actions,
then this is the part where you stop reading and
return to 1922 where you emerged from.
However, if you belong to the school of thought
that allows this, then be my guest and see how a
woman can start a conversation with a guy she
fancies. Leggo!
Let your eyes lock: they say a lot is said through
the eyes, so this should kickstart what you hope
to achieve. When you see the man you really like
and would not mind having a conversation with,
then instead of waiting forever, you can let your
gazes lock, smile a little and then slowly look
away. You can try this two more times to drive
your point home. Chances are that he would be by
your side beating you to that conversation before
a third time.
Ask how he is enjoying the party/event: if you met
at a public gathering, you can ask him how he is
enjoying it, if he is having fun and his best part of
the whole thing. A conversation is most likely
going to stem from this.
Laugh at his jokes: or anything he says at all, even
his comments about the weather. A man knows
that a woman who laughs at his jokes is feeling
him and that man is likely to start a conversation
with you before you do with him. If he beats you to
it, then hey! You are in luck.
Compliment his looks: it does not matter if the
shirt does not match the tie, you would confess
you did not mean it sometimes in the future. For
now, compliment his looks and everything and let
his attention be yours alone. All yours.
Join in the conversation with the others: this
would work if you are both in the company of
mutual friends. It would give you an opportunity to
have a reason to say something to him. Hopefully,
he takes the bait and strikes a full conversation
with you.
Buy him a drink: if it is at a bar or club then this
would totally work. Buy him a drink and see if he
won’t be the conversation starter.
Just talk!
You like a man and want to talk to him? Then just
do it! Do not have a reason or search hard for one
to start a convo with someone you admire. Apart
from this giving you the opportunity to meet
someone new, it is also very exciting and fun. It
also puts you in a guy’s shoes for a second. Yes!
You get to see how hard it is for these people to
walk up to us and strike conversations for the first
time.
