When was the last time that you thought about attraction?

It's likely that other people are thinking
about it as much as you are.

Here's seven psychological things we do
that make us less attractive.

While procrastination might feel good, it
isn't attractive.

In 1992, two psychologists named Marlon and
Beach were curious about the relationship

between how many times you see someone and
how attractive you find them.

They had four women pretend to be students
in a large intro psych class.

At the end of the semester, students in the
class were asked to rate how attractive they

What the researchers found, was that the fewer
classes a woman attended, the less attractive

The other students basically forgot about
her.

I'll try and remember this study the next
time I have to psych myself up to go to class.

It's the classic young love phenomenon, constantly
hanging out together.

Three social psychologists from the University
of California, San Diego, conducted a study

on the relationship between people's physical
proximity and how much they like each other.

The researchers made a surprising discovery;
they asked students to name who they liked

The researchers found that the students most
liked people were those who they frequently

But the researchers also found that the student's
least favorite people were those with whom

In other words, watch out that spending time
with your crush doesn't end up with you getting

Number three; acting as if you don't like
your date all that much.

When grandma told you "it always pays to smile",
where her words backed up by science?

Psychologist Curtis and Miller randomly paired
participants; one student in the pair was

led to believe that their partner either liked
or disliked them.

Those who thought they were liked were nicer
and their partners ended up liking them more.

The researchers concluded that so called reciprocal
liking is a self-fulfilling prophecy.

If your partner thinks you like them, they'll
be nicer to you, which in turn makes the whole

And the opposite is also true; if they think
that you don't like them, they'll be meaner

Turns out that grandma was onto something.

Number four; revealing too much too soon.

In 2011, researchers told female undergrads
that their Facebook profiles had been viewed

by male students, and that they would now
be viewing the profiles of those guys.

You can probably imagine that the women were
intrigued.

The women were split into groups and were
told either that he liked their profile or

that the researchers didn't know whether he
liked their profile.

The women were most attracted to the men who
didn't reveal whether they liked the women.

The researchers decided that the more the
women pondered the mysterious man, the more

he was on their mind, and the more intrigued
they became.

Austin Powers nickname was actually pretty
honest.

The magical man of mystery does get the dates.

Two psychologists in Vancouver, Canada, did
a study on misattribution of arousal, which

is when people make mistaken inferences about
what is causing them to feel the way they

They had an attractive female research assistant
give male participants a questionnaire.

In the first group, she asked them the questions
while they were on a scary suspension bridge.

In the second group, she asked them while
on a low, small bridge.

Those on the scary bridge were more excited
because of the bridge and were more attracted

to the research assistant and more likely
to call her later.

On your next date, don't just get coffee,
that's boring.

Instead, go see fireworks or ride go-karts.

Psychologists who study attraction have identified
three general strategies for pickup lines;

cute/flippant, for example "your place or
mine?", innocuous such as "what do you think

of the music?" and direct, as in, "can I buy
you lunch?".

A study asked men and women which pickup lines
they prefer to receive. Most strategies worked

However, women tend to prefer innocuous and
direct lines over cute/flippant ones.

Asking someone "did it hurt when you fell
from heaven?" is scientifically the lamest

Number seven; not having a wingman or wingwomen.

Some people treat dating like a competition,
but did you also know that there's lots of

Having a third party make the introduction
may be the best strategy of all for guys trying

Especially in today's dating world where there's
more choice than ever, daters have to overcome

many hurdles in order to catch someone's interest.

Having someone make the introduction for you
automatically moves you past the difficult

first stage and it makes it clear that you're
nice enough to have friends.

Sorry James Bond, but in the real world, the
best romancers work in pairs.

In today's fast-paced dating world, people
are quickly judged on first impressions.

But don't worry, all you have to do is make
sure you never do any of these seven unattractive

Although, bringing chocolates never hurts
either.
