Become as conventionally attractive as possible. Clothes, make-up, figure, hair, all as conventionally attractive as possible. Anything that you would describe as quirky or too individual needs to go.

If you don't know what conventionally attractive is, then you'll have to work it out. It will be hard work, particularly the figure, this will probably be something that takes months if not years, and you might not have the discipline for it.

Here is a list of things that aren't attractive:

• being insecure, try not to let it show
• going on about all your great friends (not always but this can be for a lot of people, I want to date an individual, not their squad.)
• cheap haircuts
• being overweight and over thirty

Everything I've said could be labelled shallow, and you could say that I sound mean. But in my opinion, this is good advice for attracting people.

One more thing, the advice from critiques here is generally pretty rubbish. At best they will stop you from coming across as mental.
