I was rereading this fantastic article and once again was reminded of how body language says more than words and how to “test the waters” with support touching. Since “Primal” is part of my personality, I rely heavely on body language and those non-verbal ways of communicating and I have a few tips.

While reading, I was again reminded of support touching and “…if you try any of this with certain women, they are not going to react well. So test the waters before you jump in. Try support moves such as touching her back when you are leading her somewhere or showing her something first. If she moves into your touch and closer to your body, you can go further.

I have a suggestion that I have done in the past that is based on an article I read in Cosmopolitan magazine.

YES I read “Cosmo” occasionally. I will search for the “How To” articles such as “How to get your guy to notice you” or “Where to meet date-able guys”. Then I will DO THE ACTION that the article suggests. In other words, if a guy wants to know where to meet ladies looking to date, read an article in a womans magazine that tells the ladies where THEY SHOULD GO to meet guys, then go there.

If Cosmopolitan magazing tells ladies to “hang out at a coffee shop to meet datable guys”, then guys should go hang out at a coffee shop. But that is a different thought.

One of the “how to” articles I have previously read was for ladies telling them “How to flirt” and it suggested that, for a lady to show interest, she “pick a piece of lint or a thread off of the man’s shirt”.

So I turned that advice to women around and now I will PURPOUSLY put a small piece of offensive color thread on the shoulder of my shirt. THEN I DO NOT NOTICE OR TOUCH IT!

At some point during the date, IF the lady reaches over and picks the thread off of your shoulder, she is “preening” you. If she picks that thread off your shoulder, SHE has made the first move in support touching and she has indicated her interest in you by flirting.

It is a non-threatening way to determine if the lady would be receptive to further support touching and eventually capture and containment.
