The first minutes of a relationship can be more decisive than you think. The moment you lay eyes on each other, your potential partner subconsciously reads the subtleties of your body language. They unconsciously decide to try for a romantic relationship or to abort any thoughts of love. #1. Be Ready for Love Making yourself look attractive for a first date is important, but not as decisive as their first glimpse of you. This is why you need to always be ready for love. Research shows that for women her body and face is more crucial to first impression, whereas for men, it’s their clothes. As for makeup, the study, “Lipstick as a Determiner of First Impressions of Personality,” where men were asked to talk with six different women who sometimes wore makeup and something didn’t, revealed that the men’s opinion of each woman was very different when she wore lipstick. #2. Use The Power of Eye Contact The most potent weapon you need to trigger love at first sight is your eyes. Many people swear they fell in love the moment they looked into their lover’s eyes. A study called “The Effects of Mutual Gaze on Feelings of Romantic Love,” found that powerful eye contact immediately stimulates strong feelings of affection. Instinctively, people enjoy gazing lingeringly at sights they like and avert their eyes from those they don’t. It’s the same when looking at people. How Much Eye Contact Does It Take to Imitate Love? A British study determined that, on average, when talking, people make eye contact only 30 to 60 percent of the time. This is not enough to trigger love at first sight. The study also shows that the more love a couple felt for each other, the more time they spent making eye contact.
