Discovering Your Magnetism: Subtle signs you're attractive to others

Every day we meet many people and within a few seconds we can determine if a person is attractive to us. Not everyone is aware of their assets, which sometimes are hidden under a coat of uncertainty and low self-esteem. So, how can you tell if you're an attractive person? Just pay attention to the behaviour of others, and the answer will come to you.

Attraction is not just about fitting into current beauty standards. Everyone has different tastes, and beyond straight teeth and shiny hair, there's more that counts. If you have an interesting personality and a lot of confidence, your attractiveness increases by several notches.

The first sign that you're attractive is that people listen to you. People who are seen as a certain authority cannot be unattractive. If everyone else falls silent when you speak, that's a sign that you're highly respected in that social circle. Moreover, attractiveness is associated with being asked for advice. In every group of friends, someone plays the group's "psychologist" role. Have you ever thought of them as unattractive? Or maybe you're that person?

Going to the gym, taking dance classes, or joining a hobby club influence how others see you. People who engage their hearts in activities other than work and everyday living are seen as more attractive.

Furthermore, more people strike up conversations with attractive individuals. Whether it's a store, bus stop or waiting in line at the doctor's office, attractive people are always asked for their opinion or involved in innocent conversations. If you have something in your life that you're passionate about, it's worth mentioning. Your value in the eyes of others will increase, and you'll automatically become a more attractive person.

Have you ever had a situation where a small child in a queue stared at you? If so, you can be sure that you're attractive. Children are the purest souls and immediately sense when someone is trustworthy. Kids aren't shy, so they're eager to interact with people who caught their eye.

Attractive people are precisely the favourite aunts and uncles who have a flock of children around them. Sometimes, children show jealousy towards people they like, so they don't want anyone else to take their attention away. If a child behaves this way towards you, you can be sure that your attractiveness is very high.
