way to capture a guy's attention...?

Well the thing is, those sorts of articles tend to generalize males & females in general.

When it comes to females, those articles will tell us men to "listen, show her that you care, show her your tender side..." etc etc.

That doesn't work all the time. There are many females who prefer that the male shows that he's the dominant presence in the relationship. And there are those females who like to show that they're the dominant presence in the relationship. There are those who like it when a guy agrees with everything she says while others want their partner to think for himself but still work on a mutual consensus. There are females who love it when guys play video games while other females totally despise that fact. There are females who love those bodybuilder-type guys while others prefer their men to be on the slender side. It's all subjective.

And talking from a guys perspective, it's all very differing to what we like. Some guys like it when a woman shows a sweet side. Some guys are drawn to women who play hard to get. Some guys like women when they can easily relate to and talk to them seamlessly. Some like it when women act overtly sexual/flirty while other guys don't like that. You get the picture.

As far as that "act feline" thing goes, I'm not pretty sure if that works. I've never seen it myself really, but I doubt that'll work, you have a good reason to be skeptical.

Most women I've seen when they're trying to get a guys attention is really just through talking with him, or meeting him through a mutual friend. Those are probably the most common methods I've seen when women meet a guy for the first time.

Act feline? That sounds like some silly advice. I wouldn't take much from those cosmo "tips." I don't think they're very grounded in reality.

I don't know if there's much to do in terms of how you act to attract a guy. I think it is more about how you look as you're sitting at that bar/club. If a guy comes up to you, it's going to be based on how you look. Once he's come up to you, he's interested in you, you don't need to put on some act to keep him interested. As long as you don't act crazy, things should be fine.

Well, Cosmo is written by creepy old women that don't live normal lives..and worse they just make up stuff to sell magazines.

To act 'feline' or to use a less girly word 'Primal' is a good way to attract a guy. After all we are all just animals.

So for example, dressing up in a hot dress will get guys to notice you. If you 'play with your food' that gets guys to notice(guys notice mouth play).

What else did the article say to do? Cough up a hairball?

Act the way you would like your attracted mate to be. i.e. if you act like a loose girl, you will attract a boy that would jump on anything for a ride. If you have moral standards, than you will attract a mate that is similar. A bar or club is where boys often pick up the former!

Don't try too hard to talk to him. You have a lot of time, you don't need to rush him. If you talk to him all the time and follow him around, you will look clingy. It's okay if you want to study together, but if you want to study at his house or your house, invite a friend and ask him if he wants to invite someone too. This way it won't be freakishly obvious your into him. You don't want to be easy. You will get to know each other better and have a reason to see him every weekend and you can get his number 'to plan the study group' (wink-wink). But try to keep the study group small (you, your friend, and him and his friend are enough. Better yet, get someone your both friends with if you can)

Become Friends With Some of His Friends: Chances are, if you do this, you will run into the guy you like at parties, gathering, etc. This won't be too hard to do. Since you don't like his friends you won't be scared to talk to them. Just initiate casual conversation, but leave out the flirty smiling this time, Okay?

So good luck!

Meow a LOT...that's how I met mine ;)

try to be yourself. different cases will come up to you.
