When you want to make a girl smile, don’t overthink it. You could come across awkward or weird. Rather just take a deep breath and go in with confidence. Most importantly, be yourself. Most girls have pretty good intuition and can tell if you’re using a line or are too prepared. Being genuine is your best bet.
1. Compliment her. This is an oldie but a goodie. A solid compliment can go a long way. But let’s start with a smile. Keep it simple, you don’t want to make her uncomfortable. Saying something like “Wow, you look so nice tonight,” or even, “That dress looks amazing on you,” is classic. This doesn’t feel like you planned it out or came up with a clever saying. A good old-fashioned compliment is always golden.
2. Buy her something. I don’t mean a gift, but if you’re at a bar, order something for her. Yes, you can go with a drink. But personally I think an appetizer is a lot more unique and will catch her off guard in a good way.
3. Offer her a hand. By this, I mean if she is struggling to get a waiter’s attention, taking a selfie with a friend, or anything along those lines, offer to help. This is a great intro to a smile, and even a bit of flirting or if you’re lucky, a full conversation.
4. Catch her eye. Flirting with your eyes can be considered a subtle art, and if you’re wondering how to make a girl smile, this is one great way to start. Once you get the hang of it, you’ll surely get a smile from her.
5. Make the most of every opportunity. You may not get the chance to offer to help her with something, but there are plenty of other people in the world. So no matter where you are, keep an eye out for anyone struggling.
