If they have nothing in common and no shared interests, it won’t matter how physically beautiful she is.
#10 She’s Open About Herself
If a woman is open and honest about herself and her life, a man will be more attracted to her. Men don’t like it when women are secretive and hiding parts of their lives any more than women like it.
