Dating Psychology (Women 101)
Understanding Attraction We may be attracted to people in a variety of ways. Some of the ways are aquaintances, friendships, and intimate relationships. We choose people through means of physical attraction and love. Many of us make first impressions, stereotypes, and act a certain way based on a person's physical appearance.

WingWomenUSA feels it is important to share with people some of the most common body language gestures given by single women, for a number of reasons. Both men and women need to feel comfortable with each other, as well as, need to understand each other. If we both understand what signals or gestures are being given, we are more likely to develop a meaningful and lasting relationship. It is also important not to make people feel uncomfortable, embarrassed, or ashamed about who they are or what they do. Over the last 20 years or so, it seems that men and women have become too concerned about physical appearance and financial status. So many other factors apply. What is "Dating?" |
