1.Trim any wayward facial hairs

修建任何不规则的面部毛发。

Grab a mirror and take a quick look at your face. Is there an eyebrow¹ hair that’s somehow growing perpendicular² to the rest, or one random³ hair growing in an otherwise smooth part of your neck? Tweeze it. Trim it.Invest in a $12 trimmer and the 30 seconds it takes to use it.

快拿面镜子看看你的脸，眉毛上有没有哪根毛发是和其余毛发呈直角垂直状态的？有没有平滑的脖子上长了根毛发什么的？拔掉，修剪下。花12美元买个镊子，半分钟就可以搞定。

2. Pet more dogs

养条宠物狗

It’s no coincidence that the Instagram Hot Dudes With Dogs has almost 200,000 followers⁴; one survey from the U.K. even found that 20% of women said men instantly become more attractive by having a dog.

Instagram上那张《狗狗和型男》的照片有20万人关注绝非偶然。英国的调查发现有20%的女性毫不犹豫地认为养狗的男人有吸引力。

3. Stop saying the “b” word

不要再说B开头的单词了！

This one is more than just unattractive — it’s demeaning and it’s offensive. It’s also all over popular culture, so it’s understandable that you picked it up, but drop it and you’ll be 10 times hotter.

这个“婊”字打头的脏话何止是没有吸引力，更是在贬低别人、冒犯他人。全球流行文化均是如此，所以偶尔提及也可以理解，但不要常说，这样你会比之前有魅力得多。

4. LISTEN, LISTEN, LISTEN

倾听！倾听！倾听！

Laughing at something a woman said instantly boosts her confidence, and shows that you care about what she’s saying.

女性刚说了什么你就会心一笑可以增强她的自信心，这说明你在意她说的话。

5.Put your phone away

珍爱女票远离手机

It’s normal to feel a little shy around someone you think is cute, but don’t let your phone be a crutch⁵ to help deal with social anxiety. Staring at your phone will cause her to silently roll her eyes and think, “Ugh. My eyes are up here.”

在喜欢的人身边觉得有点点害羞再正常不过，但不要让手机成为你处理社交焦虑的拐杖。盯着你的手机看会让她默默地揉揉眼，心里想，“呐，我的眼睛在这儿呐，看我啊。”

6.Wear a shirt that actually fits

穿合身的T

A skintight muscle tee isn’t for everyone, but swimming around in a jersey⁶ that’s big enough to fit two NFL players isn’t doing you any favors either. Make sure your clothing is snug⁷ enough for her to get confirmation⁸ that a human body indeed lies beneath it.

紧身显肌肉的T恤不是人人都适合，但要是穿件球衣，宽大到可以塞进两个国家橄榄球联盟的队员的话，也是不会讨人喜欢的。确保你的衣服合身，让她确信有个活生生的人在衣服里。

7.Read a book

读书

Cracking a book suggests that you have interests and an attention span — which, in the digital age of tablets and Twitter feeds, imbues⁹ you with an old-fashioned charm.

研读书本说明你有兴趣，能集中注意力，在这平板电脑和推特的数字时代，充盈着旧时的魅力。

8.Posture¹⁰ matters

姿势很重要

Studies have found that good posture can help boost your confidence. Good posture has also been linked to bravery, so roll those shoulders back, take a breath and ask her out already.

研究表明，站有站相、坐有坐相可以让你更有信心。姿势漂亮还和勇气联系在一起，所以向后摇一摇肩膀，深吸一口气，向她邀约吧。
