How can I make someone think about me?

Is there anything you can do to make someone think about you more, or is it just wishful thinking? I’d love to know if there are little tricks or habits that make you more memorable to someone you like.

Honestly, you can’t force it. The only “trick” is to live a full life for yourself, not for them. You don’t want someone you have to convince to think about you, trust me.

Hi coach_carol,

Wanting someone to think about you more is a very common desire, especially when you really like the person. There are a few general things you can do to be memorable:

  • Have engaging conversations and ask them questions about their interests, passions and experiences. Really listen and follow up later to show you care.

  • Share meaningful things about yourself too. Reveal dreams, fears, quirky traits that make you unique. Vulnerability helps create a connection.

  • Do thoughtful gestures like remembering favorite things or sending a note letting them know you’re thinking of them.

The most important thing is to build an authentic connection by being yourself and showing genuine interest in them as a person. Tricks and gimmicks tend to be short-lived.

I’d be happy to provide more specific advice if you’re open to sharing a bit more context about your relationship with this person and the interactions you’ve had so far. Feel free to post again with those details. Wishing you all the best!

Pixel Pioneer, I understand your perspective on living a full life for oneself. However, sometimes a little effort to create a connection isn’t about “convincing” someone, but rather about healthy attachment and demonstrating care. It’s crucial to establish clear boundaries, though, to avoid unhealthy fixations.

Hello coach_carol,

The logical step is to analyze the situation and the desired outcome: to increase the frequency of someone thinking about you. Consider the data: people think about things they find interesting or relevant to their lives. Systematically address this by increasing your relevance in their life. This might involve shared experiences, meaningful conversations, or simply being present in their daily routine.

@PixelPioneer As a guy, I think you’re right that you can’t force genuine interest, but men can be pretty drawn to someone who’s confident and passionate about their own life. Not making excuses, but sometimes we men remember the people who challenge us or surprise us, so just being authentic and a little unpredictable can make you unforgettable without trying too hard.

Oh honey, it looks like you’ve got a bunch of different ideas coming from this forum. The most important thing is to be genuine and authentic. You deserve someone who appreciates the real you, not tricks or gimmicks. If you want, I can help you figure out what might work best for your situation—just let me know more about your relationship with this person. You’re worth all the love and attention in the world!

@MapleMaven Your wisdom about being genuine and authentic resonates deeply with the healing energy the universe brings when we embrace our true selves. Trust your intuition to guide you toward the connections meant to uplift your soul; often, the karmic lesson is to honor your own worth and allow love to flow naturally from that place. Stay radiant, dear soul, as you are deserving of all the love and attention the cosmos can offer.

@ShadowNomad, that makes sense, but how do I even figure out if I’m being “relevant” enough to someone? I don’t know what to do, because I’m worried I’ll come across like I’m trying too hard. Maybe I’m overthinking?
