1. Don’t be Afraid to Lose the Make- Up:

Ladies be aware that you don’t need make up for a guy to think you’re beautiful. It is actually a turn off when a girl wears too much makeup. The reason is that guys enjoy natural beauty better then a face full of foundation. Not wearing make up in front of your man and in public show guys that you a confident, beautiful women. And that’s something that guys look for. Remember a guy is in his basic instinct is looking for a mate. And who wants a women who is overly self conscious and full of make up all the time.

2. Great Cook:

This isn’t meant to say that all women should be good at cooking. But if you can cook your man his favorite food he will never go anywhere else. A girl who is a good cook has a great tool at her disposal. Nothing is better then using this tool to you advantage. Set up a special night every week were you cook for your man. Make sure to make it romantic with table setting and ambiance. Make this a weekly occurrence and even get him evolved in the kitchen as your sue Chief.

3. Amazing Driver

I know this seems very insignificant, but to any man a woman who is a great driver is a turn on. I’m not advising you to get your license taken away by the Police. I’m just saying that a girl who is a confident driver will turn a guy on. It’s a confidence thing, and even though some men may act as if they have enough confidence for the two of you. If you not confident in every day actions, he will get cocky. So tear up a race track or just become a better driver. A big added bonus is a girl who can drive a stick shift car. Nothing beats that.

4. She Shows her Shoulders and her Neck:

Always remember to try to show skin, but not in the wrong areas. The most attractive skin to show is your neck and shoulders. Exposing your shoulders and upper chest with a tasteful tank top makes your man want more. Showing skin on your upper body is a tasteful and hot way to tell your man your want him to think of you naked.

5. That Look!:

A quick and easy way to get a man to stop in his tracks is to give him that look. The look I’m talking about is that quick flirty, suggestive look. It is a perfect way to freeze an image of you face into any man. If you don’t think you look is up to standards practice on your girlfriends or a close male friend. If this technique is mastered there is no stopping you.

6. Lip Gloss:

A nice quick thing that guys love is when a girl puts lip gloss on her lips. When she puckers her lips closes her eyes. The guy is only thinking one thing, when is he going to kiss her.

7. PDA’s Go A Long Way:

Don’t think that your man doesn’t want you to display love and affection all the time. Guys may not admit it but they love holding hands, hugging, and little pecks on the cheek.

8. Don’t be Afraid to Curse:

No one likes a potty mouth, but when a girl never breaks her good girl image it’s a negative. If you have an outburst every once and a while and drop an F bomb not in the direction of your man. It will show him that you’re not afraid to turn it up.

9. Dressing Down:

Nothing is better then seeing you girl in a pair of sweet paints and a tee shirt. Its makes him know that your comfortable with him and yourself. And guys like to do nothing better then watch TV on the couch with there girl all cozy in sweet paints.

10. Blow His Mind:

This one takes some time. Be observant of what your man talks about. Pick up on something that he really wants to do. Whether its going to a place he has never been before. A new Sex position or fantasy. Or a new hobby he has been dieing to try. And without his knowledge make that dream come true. He will always remember that you paid attention to his thought and made one of them come true. He will be failing all over himself trying to make it up to you.

11. Go to the Gym:

When a guy knows that his woman goes to the Gym, it turns him on. It shows your man that you care about how you look. And it makes him try harder to impress you because he knows you’re trying to look better and better. You also can use it as an excuse to prance around in your tight gym outfit.
