Lately I’ve been thinking a lot about how much of dating today feels like performance instead of real connection. I came across a book by Helena Averton that kind of shook me without being preachy or gimmicky, it dives into how subtle power shifts happen in relationships and how attraction isn’t really about looks or lines, but control, attention, and timing. It made me realize how often we give up control in ways we don’t notice. Definitely one of the more grounded things I’ve read on this topic in a while.
I agree with this so much It's actually one of the reasons I made this channel. People look at love and romance these days like it's a power game, the enter into a relationship with the mindset of who is going to be in control forgetting about the true meaning of being with someone. It's about peace, having someone who is your home, your comfort someone who sees you and loves you. I am definitely going to check out that book 😊❤
This book looks like some incel sexist bs tbh. Amazon said that it is often bought with "no more mr nice guy". Seems to be "nice guyt"TM kind of shi. If in dpthe description already they say "women operate on instinct and emotion," you can toss it. Just because a woman wrote means nothing unless she had a psychology degree in front of that name.
The "accidental on purpose" touch is a personal favorite of mine, but I've always valued touch and actions over words. I recommend using the information presented by this video in conjunction with your primary love language (recommended reading: "The Five Love Languages" by Gary Chapman). Better yet, the primary love language of the person with whom you're flirting... if you happen to know their language.
You're 100% right ❤ this signs will be more effective if you use them According to your love language or the other person's. And I will definitely check out the book you recommended ❤
Went downhill from tip 5 onwards. As a man, annoyances are unattractive. Stealings bits of my food, saying I can't pull of a certain thing/challenging me on the spot with a short time pressure, or not finishing your sentence are the height of annoyance and an active way to erode my respect and trust. Want to be attractive? Don't do those things. Those are the behaviors of a pest, not of a flirt.
I think this would be powerful to use in writing. Instead of guy always smirking as his cue. This is overdone. Ladies need a little more depth then the typical rough and tough boy. When you add layers to his personality like fears, disbeliefs, and bad habits, the character turns from milk toast to a relatable personality.
He did number 5 Does that mean that there is a chance he likes me? Does this apply also to men ? I do number 5 unconsciously 😅 I hope it worked. Also he leaned on me. Understanding if a boy likes you is really difficult 😭😭
Yeah I feel you 😂😊 But it definitely sounds like he’s giving little clues. And yes - these signs totally apply to men too! If you like him, try giving small signals back or start a light conversation that opens the door. Sometimes guys show interest subtly, but they won’t make a move unless they sense it’s safe to.
@psysigns_YT Thanks for replying ☺️🥰🫶 He did give me some clues but they aren’t strong. I will wait until I can confirm it or I will confess to him at June ( if I have the same feelings for him until then )
@Mary_pinky5 That’s actually a really healthy mindset 🥰 Waiting to be sure shows maturity not fear. If he’s giving small clues, he might just be shy or testing the vibe. Either way, take your time and keep being your natural self that’s what usually draws the truth out in the end And I also have a video on "Signs he sees you as more than just a friend " Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/KdDomXjCt2I/video.html Thought it might help
if you're a pick me, and u know it clap your hands👏 if you're a pick me, and u know it clap your hands👏 if you're a pick me , and u know it, and u really wanna show it if you're a pick me, and u know it clap your hands 👏 (btw this is when i expect u to clap)
I got a boyfriend who's 12 4weeks ago, I'm 10 and like..he tossed me with this line, " Ella ,are you mixed? Because your half fun, and your half mine😏" And I'm watching this, bro I'm hald and introvert and glad extrovert I'm very shy I can't even just straight up walk to him so I can't use these tips😫😭
Hey, so thx for the video. I know it will help me. I could you give me advice on to hold his hand, like how gave him butterflies by holding hands. And our relationship is going well, he treats me well and everyone told me that i am lucky to have him, cuz he is so so caring ❤ How are you doing?❤❤😊
Hey friend 😊👋 Glad to hear that everything is going well for you two ❤ I am doing very well and you? Also for the advice, if you want to give him butterflies just do it when he doesn't expect it, catch him off guard with the move. You don't need to be afraid or shy because he will be happy and maybe even blush if you make the move 😊❤
Thanks 😊 I am doing great! And thanks for asking ❤ Oo, okay thx for the advice on that. He actually held my hand and i genuinely can say that he held my hand with so much care❤
@vinukrishna1212 😊❤ I Appreciate you thank you And also it's not entirely thanks to me It's because you opened your courage box and took that first step that you two are together now so congratulations to you 😊

Bro I call my sister "Noodle hair" as a nickname cuz she has curly hair, and it's an inside joke between us and my friends...
I love this! Nicely done ❤
Glad you love the video😊❤

Girllll tysm! I really needed this, thanks! And everybody I'm meeting with him and this fits perfectly because we ALWAYS play truth or dare!
Glad the video was helpful 😊❤
These is definitely gonna work 💯❤️
Glad you agree ❤
the boy who has a crush on me and i have a crush on him. the first day i met him i gave him a nickname/code name. idk if he likes it :D
1st time seeing like this 😂
Ok 3 Minutes in an i totally dont understand Flirting.
Unoshaya
He did number 5 Does that mean that there is a chance he likes me? Does this apply also to men ?
I do number 5 unconsciously 😅 I hope it worked. Also he leaned on me. Understanding if a boy likes you is really difficult 😭😭
Yeah I feel you 😂😊
But it definitely sounds like he’s giving little clues.

And I also have a video on
"Signs he sees you as more than just a friend "
Here's the link: ruclips.net/video/KdDomXjCt2I/video.html
Thought it might help
@Mary_pinky5how did it go? Did you win something or learned something? I hope u won yours crush’s hearth 😊
"Hi beautiful people-" I ain't beautiful.
Jesus created us in his image, Just because people don't think you are beautiful doesn't mean Jesus does :D
@jerdd9392 I don't believe in Christianity but thx
beauty lies in beholders eyes
if you're a pick me, and u know it clap your hands👏
if you're a pick me, and u know it clap your hands👏
if you're a pick me , and u know it, and u really wanna show it
if you're a pick me, and u know it clap your hands 👏 (btw this is when i expect u to clap)
time to see if this will work on my long distance crush
Only if she's already attracted to you. You're not Chad- forget it
I tried and I am in jail
I don't read crap like this because I dont want to manipulate anyone. That is fake life.
0:02 Marilyn Manson reference "beutiful people"
if i did any of these things i'd be labeled a creep and possibly arrested for sexual harassment

@vinukrishna1212 I am glad to hear he did 😊❤
And you're welcome I do hope the advice helps.
@psysigns_YT it really helps me. It is also because of you that i have him as my bf. So thanks a lot ❤❤
@vinukrishna1212 😊❤ I Appreciate you thank you
And also it's not entirely thanks to me
It's because you opened your courage box and took that first step that you two are together now so congratulations to you 😊
Believe me, my crush wouldn't understand. But he's also my friend, so it's hard to even try. 💕
However, I might try whispering.
That's rough, but I do hope it works out 😊❤
How do you think he feels about you?
I think he might like me. My friends think so too, especially after he gave me the most wonderful Christmas present in the world ❤️
@psysigns_YT
i call my girlfriend mommy, is this a good nickname? (btw. she calls me daddy)
All of these things works if you're handsome
Yeah, none of this works on me. As a matter of fact, it makes me angry.
elite hater (i don't blame you though lol)
@dawnn.1675Yeah buddy 💪
