Think aloud
Apparently, men are simple. They don’t like to complicate things and you can usually figure out a lot about their feelings through their actions.
But sometimes, you have to get inside their head to work out what they’re thinking about. You have to get to know more about their patterns of behavior to find out what attracts them the most and leaves them speechless.
That was exactly why we found five men who told us a bit more about all those little things women do that drive them crazy (in a good way).
These subtle moves will make you stand out among a sea of women and they’ll instantly make you feel more attractive in the eyes of a man. Here’s what they told us.
1. Keep eye contact
“Oh, man. Eye contact is a dangerous thing but at the same time, it’s one of the best moves a woman can make if she wants a guy to remember her.
When she knows how to confidently look into your eyes without feeling the urge to look away, men fall for that simple move. We instantly feel drawn to her and want to get to know her better.
Also, looking at us when we’re talking instead of staring at the floor or at your hands is a big plus. I bet that we’re all nervous on those first dates but it isn’t an excuse good enough to avoid eye contact, as to men, that’s a deadly sin.”

2. Be confident
“Real men hate insecurity. They don’t think it’s cute when a woman puts herself down or acts like she’s not worthy of love.
Trust me, only a player or an immature guy will fall for that. What actually drives us crazy is when we meet a woman who knows what she wants, a woman who knows how to lead a conversation and be in control.
We immediately feel attracted to women who are aware of their worth and who don’t let men bring them down. When she knows how to stand up for herself, that’s what we like.
So please don’t try to win a guy over by degrading yourself. Don’t play dumb and don’t even try to make him pity you because you’ll never get yourself a real man by acting that way.
Instead, you need to figure out your value and learn more about your strengths. Improve your confidence and show us that you can take care of yourself.
That will drive any man crazy, I can promise you that.”

3. Wear a smile on your face
“Who wouldn’t want to be in the company of a beautiful woman who always wears a smile on her face? She instantly draws you in and captivates you with her optimism and positivity.
Playing it cool and having a poker face only works on fools and immature guys who still have no idea what a real woman looks like.
But when you make people feel comfortable in your company, when you smile pleasantly and show us that you’re fun to be around, that’s what men fall for.
It drives me crazy when I meet a woman who stops making me nervous the moment we start a conversation, as she shows me that she’s laid-back and isn’t grumpy, like most of them are today.
I immediately feel the need to meet up with her for a second date because I know that I’ll always feel great in her company.”

4. Present yourself with a dose of mystery
“Of course, I don’t want her to keep quiet during an entire conversation. I don’t want to beg her for words but at the same time, I don’t want her to tell me everything about herself on our first date.
I want to have to make an effort when I’m trying to get to know her better. It’s no longer fun when she reveals all of her secrets and then there’s nothing that keeps me waiting for more.
Honestly, men love a challenge, so you should allow us to have one from time to time. Let us work hard to find out more about you.
This is what keeps the whole getting-to-know-you process a bit more enjoyable and allows us to have something to look forward to.”

5. Smell nice
“So maybe I’m a bit superficial. I know you’ll call me that because of what I’m about to say but at the same time, you asked me to tell you what drives men crazy.
I’m about to share with you one of the things that immediately attracts me. It’s when a woman smells nice.
You instantly get the idea that she’s put in some effort and she wants you to like her and that realization is attractive in itself. I love it when she smells amazing but simultaneously doesn’t overdo it.
It’s a huge plus and honestly, sometimes it can be the reason why I choose to go on a second date with her. I swear that I gave my now-girlfriend a second chance only because I loved how amazing she smelled.
Our first date was okay but it didn’t actually make me wish to go out with her one more time. But the smell of her perfume intoxicated me and I simply had to invite her out again.
And I didn’t make a mistake with that, seeing as we’ve had a blast since then.
So, women, when you’re going out with a man, make sure to put on perfume that will make him remember you. Maybe it seems like foolish advice but I can assure you that it works.
He’ll keep thinking about you and that’s how you’ll drive him crazy.”
