How to charm the pants off a woman

Word has it that the way to a man’s heart goes through the stomach. Well, charming a woman isn’t very complicated either: it’s all about small gestures.

A (female) friend of mine is staying with my grandmother. They don’t really have a common language to communicate in, but my grandma is already extremely fond of this girl. Why? Well, every single day when she gets out of bed, coffee and breakfast are waiting for her on the kitchen table.

Flowers are nice, and nobody in their right mind will say no to a wonderful pair of shoes, but what really matters is the thought. It doesn’t have to be anything extravagant. Just by making a small effort that will take you about 5 minutes or less, you might actually make somebody’s day. And it works on everyone: grumpy grandmothers, sleepy girlfriends, crazy mothers, anxious aunts and, who knows, maybe on men as well.
