Somewhere between the introductions and the cab ride home in the morning, you see a glimmer of relationship potential in that one night stand. You don’t hear wedding bells…. yet, but you definitely wouldn’t mind knocking boots again. This sexy one-night-stand of a thing can pretty easily become a strong relationship if there really is a connection happening.
Here are a few techniques to entice your acquaintance into becoming your main squeeze:
- Show you were listening. Mention that band she liked on the radio when you hear they are coming to town, or turn the TV to Sportscenter when you know he missed the big game to make a few plays in the sheets.
- Give compliments unrelated to sex. If she fixes you breakfast the morning after, praise her eggs and toast, even if it’s burnt or runny. This rule doesn’t necessarily apply to women. Girls, the more ego boosting in bed, the better.
- Always exude confidence. You already impressed them with your amazing skills in the sack, so the only thing left to do is to wow them with your charm. Think “The Fonz.” Keep a cool, collected, aloof presence. Make your move with poise and confidence.
- Avoid being clingy. Nothing will put a stop to a potential romance faster than smothering attachment. Don’t blow up his phone with calls and texts. Don’t write her a follow-up email, no matter how tempted you are to send her the link to that one website you talked about. Give yourself a good post-coital 48 hours before initiating contact.
- Avoid playing games and just be yourself! If you present yourself as an honest, sincere person who can be trusted, you are more likely to rack up the brownie points than if you come off as manipulative and unreachable.
Just keep in mind that it isn’t guaranteed that you will win the heart of your brief lover if you follow every step perfectly. Some men and women avoid commitment like the flu and your charm may or may not change that. Rock the one-night stand, my friends.
