The rest of the list will unfortunately involve in-person interaction because the return on investment per person on the apps of choice is not as high. We all know that guy. Yes.

Everyone loves compliments. When was the last time you saw someone complain that someone gave them too many compliments? However, there are guidelines into what types of compliments you should give. If you think his biceps are absolutely gorgeous, do not simply say that! Instead, compliment him on his determination to hit the gym so regularly. After all, they do want their efforts at the gym to be noted. Always emphasize the effort that he puts into his looks. Ideally, it will lead to him talking about his life, to which you can just nod along whether you find it interesting or not. Smile, because you now have his attention.

Everyone has flaws, but everyone also has beauty. Similar to how you identified the part of you to accentuate on your app of choice, you also should highlight that about yourself in real life. Whether that means drop, bend, and snap, or twirling your hair, you should bring all the goodies that you’ve got. If you’re wearing some cute underwear, sag your pants a little and raise your hand up to reach for the wine in the cabinet.
2. Offer him a drink

If you want to get a guy’s attention, buy him a drink and follow it up with a compliment or a witty joke. In the race to get his attention, the earlier tactics can be used cumulatively. However, buying him a drink instantly grants you a minute or so of his time. In this time, mix all the tactics above and have a good time!
1. Go up to him and be authentically you

I know, I know. Cliché. However, at the end of the day, what will really get his attention is who you are. No matter how good you are at telling jokes or giving compliments, there’s likely someone who is better than you at it. I mean look at Will Ferrell. He could blink humorously without problems. However, only you are the best at being you. All of your weirdness and pet peeves. The perfect combination of every aspect of you makes you unique.
And if he’s not into that? Well, he’s not worth it anyway.
