And how to meet someone at work, you may ask? I spend hours upon hours there every day and am closest to colleagues, you say. Well, as with the friends\u2019 situation, this solution feels simple, but it’s fraught with possible disaster and uncomfortable futures. Absolutely only go for indirect coworkers (that you don’t spend time working together with), and preferably someone with a similar level of seniority (or lack thereof).<\/li>\r\n<\/ol>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nHow to Get the Guy<\/h3>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
So you’ve found your in. You know how to find<\/em> a boyfriend, but you need to know how to get a man to respond well — how to really get<\/em> a boyfriend.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\nUnfortunately, there’s no sure way to get any man to fall for you. You’ve just got to take a chance and put in an honest effort. But fear not; if this potential relationship is going to lead anywhere, it’ll have to be built on mutual communication, trust, and positivity, which makes figuring it out simpler.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n- The conversation may not necessarily be easy, but it should flow readily from both ends. You’ll be excited to learn about him, and let him learn about you — it should be fun, a little playful, and above all filled with genuine curiosity and enjoyment. In the beginning, it takes little more than that to get the ball rolling.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n- Don’t present an untrue version of yourself to curry favor. That’s just not sustainable and will exhaust you in any sort of long run.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n- To that end, don’t play texting games. Reply when you’re able, but try to make a little more time for them at first if they make it for you, too. If that’s legitimately difficult, let them know! Schedule times to text, call or meet up.\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n- Take action through text or in person. Ask for what you need if they aren’t offering — for dates, to take the relationship to the next level, for the information you need to make decisions, for them to stop using the emoji that’s absolutely your enemy. You have permission to straight up say, “Hey, do you want to be my boyfriend? I’d like to be your girlfriend.”\u00a0<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n- So don’t wait for them to set the entire pace and mood if you’re comfortable doing so yourself. It takes a lot of guts and puts it all on the line, but that’s how we move forward. Softer options would be prodding him in the right direction or finding ways to test the waters.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
\r\n- If you feel like you have to fight for answers, attention, or to reconcile atrocious communication etiquette, really consider if continuing seems worth it. There is plenty of fish in the sea, and big and little reasons to move on. Be respectful and kind whenever you can, but before he’s actually your boyfriend, you really don’t owe him much of anything. Get a different guy.<\/li>\r\n<\/ul>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Takeaway<\/h2>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
So it might take way more than two weeks to score a boyfriend. But if you take a week to compose yourself, then identify, sort through, and frame your desires, you’ll have a great base from which to start searching.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
By the second week, as long as you try to put yourself out there, you’ll be chatting up potential boyfriend material left and right. When the right guy makes his entrance, he’ll make you wonder why you wasted time on anyone else at all.\u00a0<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
Yet if that doesn’t work out in the end, just know that there are Mr. Rights left, right, and center — you can find someone else to make you happy if you let yourself go look for him.<\/p>\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n
