What Women Mean By 'Just Be Yourself'

  • 'Just be yourself' is useless if your natural behavior is unattractive and provides no guidance.
  • Smart women mean: don't fake it, discover your attractive traits and emphasize them instead.
ADVICE

Put Yourself Where Strengths Shine

  • Find social contexts that let your real strengths show instead of forcing you to act fake.
  • Avoid trying to be outgoing or funny if that's not who you are because it comes off as fake.
ADVICE

Ask Trusted People What Works

  • Ask honest, smart friends which traits of yours women find attractive.
  • Use their feedback to choose places and activities where those traits naturally surface.
