           It’s funny what some girls do to get a guy’s attention. They go to extremes just for a guy to notice them.

            Some girls do things so ridiculous that the guy they wanted to get noticed by does notice them, but not in a good way. Sometimes, girls try so hard to get noticed and end up messing something up and just embarrassing themselves. After that, the girl thinks the guy won’t even acknowledge her.

            Embarrassment is hilarious, but it’s no joke when you’re the victim. Sure, everyone’s been embarrassed once or twice, but when it’s in front of a guy you’re trying to impress, it’s a million times worse. Girls shouldn’t try so hard to get noticed. I’ve learned when you try or concentrate too hard, everything get messed up and that’s when you get humiliated.

            You should just try to be yourself when it comes to guys. If they like you when it’s not really you, then they don’t like you for who you are. You should never try to be something you’re not, especially if you’re trying to get someone to like you.

            Being confident helps to get a guy to like you. If you’re confident, then you shouldn’t have to change yourself or be someone you’re not. If the guy you’re crushing on doesn’t approve of who you are, then I’d suggest you stop crushing. Never change yourself to get someone to like you. If you like yourself, then don’t fret about whether or not he likes you.

            Be funny! Guys love funny girls, but don’t take it too far. The fun stops when someone else’s feelings are getting hurt. Guys don’t like mean girls; when you hurt someone’s feelings, that’s when the embarrassment arrives. When a guy sees you’ve hurt someone’s feelings, he’ll just think you’re mean and not pay any mind to you. Then you get embarrassed, and there’s when things get messed up.

            When a girl and a guy first start to think they like each other, you don’t want to be pushy. Give him space; the guy you like won’t want to be bugged with texts and calls every minute. If you do bug the guy you like, it’ll go to an extent where he’ll find you annoying and not like you anymore. Girls can tend to be “clingy” when they like a guy a lot. The guy you like will start to think you’re a little obsessive, and that’s never good.

            One of the most important things to keep in mind when you like a guy is not to be pressured into doing anything that you don’t want to. Every so often, a girl will do something she regrets just to get a guy to like her. Like I said, be who you are. If you have to change or do anything that you don’t want to, then the guy doesn’t truly like you for who you are.

            Following these few simple tips can, and will help to get a guy to like you. And, it’ll be for all the right reasons instead of the wrong.
