When it comes to putting the moves on someone, no one can make themselves rejection-proof. But you can increase the odds of a good outcome.

* Eye contact
* A warm smile
* Cheese
* Circumspection
* Dignity

Step 1: Look for cues

Before approaching someone, try to catch their eye. If they hold your gaze for a moment and then fiddle with their appearance — like straighten their shoulders or touch their hair — chances are they’re interested.

Step 2: Lock eyes

If you’ve managed to engage your crush in a conversation, maintain eye contact. It’s called the “anchoring gaze” and it fosters feelings of intimacy.
Step 3: Order some cheese

If there’s any way to work a cheese platter into the evening, do so. Cheese is chock full of the chemical phenylethylamine, an aphrodisiac.

Step 4: Don’t overshare

Don’t provide too much information upfront. Ex-lovers, copious numbers of pets, prison stints, and radical weight loss procedures are best left for another time.
Step 5: Beat ‘em to the punch

If it becomes obvious that the person you’re chatting up is not interested in you — their eyes are wandering; they’re grunting one-word responses; they’re not smiling — say, “It was nice meeting you,” and move on.
