1- Smile. The absolute simplest way to get people to like you is to smile genuinely. People crave being around others that are fun and happy because it´s contagious- you´ll make them feel good just by being present. Smiling is the first indicator that you are a person they probably want to be around. Smile and you´re in. 

2- Use a comfortable level of eye contact. This one hopefully comes naturally. Eye contact is one of the simplest ways to show someone you´re paying attention. When you´re watching TV, you look at it right? So when you´re talking to someone, shouldn´t you do the same thing?

• Too little eye contact can be seen as rude. Where else are you looking  at? what is distracting you? Why isn´t the conversation at hand good enough to warrant your attention? 
• Too much eye contact can kale the other uncomfortable. It may come off as you staring the person down. If you´re aware that intense eye contact is a problem of yours, make it a point to fidget once in a while. 

3- Tilt your head towards to the other person. The science behind this one is that evolutionarily, tilting our head exposes our carotid artery, telling the other person that we aren´t looking for a fight. Somewhere in the depths of our brains, it cues us that the person we´re talking to isn´t a threat and that we can proceed comfortably.

4- Give a quick eyebrow flash. This may be one of the non-verbal cues you´re not even aware. So maybe you already do it. A common sign to show friendliness is to do a quick eyebrow flash —just moving them up and down slightly and quickly.

5- Mirror their positioning. If you find yourself in the same body position as someone else, odds are you´re probably on similar trains of thought. You probably do this with those around you more often than you realize. The good news here is that you can use it to your advantage. People like people who are similar to them, and this is one very easy way to do it.

MAKING A PERSON LIKE YOU ONE-ON-ONE

1- Ask people about themselves. Be interested in them. What conversation is better than with a person who is genuinely interested in what your saying?

2- Ask for a favor. This one may sound kind of funny if you´re not familiar with it – it´s a technique known as the “benjamin franklin effect”. Basically, you ask for a favor, the other person does it for you, you thank them, and they end up liking you more. You´d think that the person having done something done for them would like the other, but it´s not so. 

3- Talk about what interests the other person. If you know their hobbies or passions, ask! This will usually get them going non-stop and take the heat off you. They will go on and on feeling like you two are having an epic conversation when really you´ve been resigned to nodding because you can´t get a word in edgewise. If you can remember something they mentioned in passing, they´ll be doubly impressed.

4- Be empathetic. We´re all concerned with me, me, me and waiting for the next time we can add to a conversation. To amplify your likeability, turn the spotlight over to the other person. Focus on understanding them.

5- Flatter them. Another one that seems really obvious. Unfortunately, paying others compliments sometimes can be awkward and seem as if you have ill motivations. For starters, get over yourself. Everyone loves it. 

6- Embarrass yourself

7- Touch them. Straight up, if you want to feel a connection with a person, you touch them. Obviously every relationship is different and thus different levels of touching are good — but in general, it´s effective at establishing a bond.
