I was at a bar with my friends when I noticed a guy who was chatting with an attractive woman. What was interesting about this guy was seemed confidant in his ability to "pick-up this chick".

Unfortunately this wasn't the case.

From the bored look in her eye, I could instantly tell she was looking for way to escape from this loser.

Now the problem wasn't his looks or the way he dressed. Instead he was making a couple mistakes which were easily avoidable. If he knew about them, his chances of success with that woman would dramatically increase.

So next time you're chatting with a woman, make sure you don't any of the following mistakes:

Mistake #1- Not reading her body language

A woman is always telling us how she feels through her body language. Without saying a word, she'll tell you when she's attracted or when she's repulsed. If you don't read her body language, then you can't pick up on subtle cues which can help improve your chances of success.

Mistake #2- Thinking being funny is the way to attractive to a woman

Since many women state they're attracted to guys "with a sense of humor", it's a common mistake to try to act like a clown when around them. While it's important to make a woman laugh, it's equally vital to avoid looking like a fool.

Being funny doesn't do anything for building attraction.

Instead of trying to make her laugh, you should focus on a technique known as "cocky/funny". To be cocky/funny, you focus on teasing a woman with a bit of mock arrogance.

Mistake #3- Trying to buy her affections with free drinks

Have you ever noticed those guys at a bar who constantly buy women drinks?

Well you've probably discovered these men are great at getting women drunk, but they're doing nothing to help them get laid. By paying for a woman's drink, they're just making it easier for some other guy to pick her up.

By buying a woman ALL her drinks, you're demonstrating to her that you must purchase the attention of a woman in order to get her to talk to you. While you can be polite and buy ONE drink, don't act like a puppy dog and constantly work to please her.

Mistake #4- Acting TOO arrogant

Before I mentioned how you should act in a slightly arrogant manner around a woman. Now I wanted to mention there is an inherent danger in adapting this behavior.

While women love a guy with confidence, having too much of it can be a turn-off.

If you spend all your time bragging about your accomplishments, you're demonstrating behavior with tends to annoy a woman.

All you have to do is display confidence through your actions and body language. If you come across as confidence, you don't have to open your mouth to prove it.

Knowing how to attract women is a simple process.

If you can avoid the common mistakes which other guys make, you'll increase your chances of grabbing a woman's number and setting up a date. So learn these mistakes and take every step to make sure you're not making them.
