WEEK THREE, Day Fifteen: HOW TO BE AN OBJECT OF DESIRE

You have got under the skin of a man you can walk and talk like one; and hopefully you now know what a man looks for in a woman. So... now you are a woman again, you know exactly what to do to become an irresistible object of desire. (Note to self: make a list of all the scenes and what character, and gender, you play in each. You have spotted the potential for total identity crisis) You have to play it cool, men like cool. You dance like an idiot and whoop with excitement in the privacy of your own apartment - he doesn't want to see this. More importantly when he doesn't want to see you or puts you on hold for more than a week, DON'T call him, just wait and be happy that you have a man that could potentially call. Whilst you are waiting for him to call practise your Jane Fonda exercise moves, get your hair done, go shopping for fabulous outfits, but don't tell him about any of this - he won't be interested in your grooming just the outcomes of it.
'Wrap yourself in something special' for who?

Consider how you walk, push your hips forward and put your feet one directly in front of the other in a straight line, just like the models do, walk like this even when you are not with him just in case you bump into him. You are learning throughout this rehearsal process that being desirable is basically a lifelong career it is physically and mentally taxing, more than your office job anyway. When you are on a date, say cocktails at a fancy bar, hang upon his every word, focus only on him - eyes on the prize. Whilst you are listening to his stories which you have heard before, DO NOT tell him, just laugh at the parts that are ‘funny’ (this week’s to do list ‘Practise sexy laugh’).
