Hey guys. My name is Shallon and I'm here to help you with all the questions you might have about love, lust, romance, and everything in between. For more, visit me on twitter @downtownshallon or be sure to check out my website shallononline.com. Boys, the key to getting a girls attention is confidence, dating is a lot like sales and every good salesman knows that you have to believe in your own product in order to be successful aka you have to have confident, so how do you become confident? You do with your self esteem what girls do with their bra size, you fake it. If you don't have that innate well of confidence, borrow it from a celebrity that you admire maybe Derek Jeter, Tom Brady or Ryan Reynolds or Justin Bieber because I know teenage boys love Justin Bieber, so when you want to approach a girl or you want to stand out, channel that Tom Brady energy, quite frankly the guy looks like a peanut but he pulled Giselle I mean come on he is doing something right so in your mind, become the Braidey, see the Bieber see the do the Geeder and sort of let that confidence shine through as if your playing a part, there's also things you can do to work on your self esteem until you can actually really take hold and become confident yourself. Number one put your shoulders back, stand up straight, you always see those kids in the hall who kind of like slink along, their body language is saying please don't notice me, is that what your body language is saying? Also take care of your personal hygiene, it sounds really simple but bleach your teeth, do your hair, wear some cologne, one or two splits will do so lets not go overboard into mafia territory, when you see a girl that you like, make eye contact, you don't have to like settle sparklers in the hall way to get her attention, a little bit of suttle eye contact will go so far to get a girl to notice you, and as always smile.
