10 Talents that Will Help you Meet and Date Women

While most people around us are striving for money or good looks, the ones who achieve real social success are often the genuinely interesting personalities. This could be because people are jaded by the mainstream norms of beauty and financial success and instead are attracted to those who possess varied and interesting talents. Here are then ten talents that will help you meet women and even prove in handy while dating them.

  1. Speaking a foreign language

    A facility with languages is one of the most common traits of highly popular people and if a woman hears you speaking to the maitre de chef in French at a fine dining destination, she is bound to be impressed. You can use your language skills to meet women at international conventions, parties, on the campus and during overseas travel. Apart from the fact speaking a foreign language requires certain level of intelligence, it is also a sign of worldliness, one which distinguishes the much-travelled sophisticate from someone who has never been out of his home state. However be careful to reveal your skill in a matter of fact way ‘cause if you go out of your way to flaunt it, you may come off as a show-off or worse, desperate for approval.

  2. A well-read personality

    This again is a huge plus if you want a smart woman to date you consistently instead of just having a one-night stand. Women who are successful professionals will expect their companions to be smart and intellectually aware as well. After all, a relationship can last only so long merely on the basis on sexual chemistry. Moreover if you want to be introduced to her family and friends, it would certainly help to come off as woman who is not only good looking but has a well-rounded personality too. However since reading can quickly turn into a solitary activity, it would not do to obtain a library membership or snuggle up at home with your favorite book in lap. Instead join an avowedly social platform like a book club where you can meet other members, discuss favorite authors, review new launches and if in the mood shred to pieces offerings by new writers. Also hang out at book stores and if you manage to get hold of an invitation, attend celebrity events like book reading or book launch by well-known authors. All this will throw you in touch with single women who share your literary interests and help you meet new people.
     
  3. Playing a musical instrument

    Easier to pick up as compared to a new language, playing an instrument still requires some degree of dedication, a fact which is unlikely to escape a woman. So while other men might view your ability to strum a guitar or play the saxophone as just one of many skills that a guy can pick up, women are more likely to see it as an expression of an artistic sensibility lurking deep inside your masculine self. What’s more, this talent can also open up dating opportunities since cultural festivals, clubs, musical gigs and friendly gatherings are all occasions where you can show off your skills and attract women.
     
  4. Dancing

    Most women love to shake a leg with their partners on the dance floor. This makes men with dancing skills some of the hottest items on the dating scene. Some men on the other hand might feel that is the hardest of all skills to acquire, maybe because of the combination of the social and artistic element involved in dancing. They may be too shy to try or feel that they are going to trip their partners. However it’s quite simple really – you just need to follow the rhythms of the music with your body and keep eye contact with your partner. All of which are sure to make her go wow with you moves.
     
  5. Personal fitness

    Women these days are becoming increasingly aware of the health benefits of regular exercise.

And while you do a great job of improving their health, be sure to lend a sympathetic ear to their professional and personal confidences as well. Before you know it, you may have turned into a companion from a hired professional.
     
  6. Cooking

    It is quite impossible to come across a woman who isn’t going to be just a bit pleasantly surprised on hearing that a man knows his way about in the kitchen. Even better, associated activities like shopping for cookware or browsing through fresh produce aisles in supermarkets can open up opportunities to chat up women who are doing their grocery-shopping. In fact gourmet food stores can turn out to be highly sociable places where you can invite suggestions from a pretty and seemingly single girl on what would go better in a Greek salad – fresh cherry tomatoes or sun-dried tomatoes. And apart from the fact that your cooking skills will impress your partner, you will be eating better-tasting and healthier food yourself.
