The secret to his sex appeal is quite simple : he has the Alpha Male characteristics that women find compelling.

Everyone in the room knows this, even the men. Women and men alike gravitate towards him because they cannot resist his presence. If you want to be "That Guy" soon enough, read on to discover the alpha male characteristics that will propel your social life forward, and make you the most attractive guy anywhere you go.

#1 - Leader

In any group, there is a leader and there are followers. At a glance, it's pretty obvious who the leader is. He's the guy who does not fidget while around women, does not slouch on his seat and does not look nervous.

There are behaviors that indicate low self-esteem and lack of confidence, but an alpha male is over and beyond that. His words clearly indicate that no one dares question his authority, and that no woman is immune to his charm.

#2 - Calm Confidence

Confidence is the one thing that separates alpha males from beta males. The alpha male can show confidence without even trying, while the beta males act tough to fake confidence. When the going gets tough (i.e. when a woman dishes out rejection like candy on Halloween), the true alpha males can walk away with a huge smile that clearly indicates lack of concert about being rejected.

The beta males show tension and anxiety when faced with the prospect of rejection. Moreover, beta males take the dissing seriously and don't get over it completely. True confidence does not break, even when faced with challenges.

#3 - An Alpha Male Does Not Take Himself Too Seriously

When talking to women, alpha males can tease and joke around at will. They do not get bothered with whether their jokes are corny or not. They simply dish out one joke after another with pizazz. Some guys cannot handle humor.

In fact, these beta makes get nervous and fidgety when delivering jokes, which make the joke seem creepy. Beta males stress over what other people will say, that's why they cannot relax and just have fun.

Now you know what the alpha male characteristics are, you can start building your game and increasing your confidence around women. Some people think that only the guys who were born with these characteristics can consistently attract women. However, the truth is that any guy can become an Alpha Male as long as he is willing to learn how!
