Sign #2: People Go Out of Their Way to Help You
Dubbed the “halo effect” by Francesca, if you notice acquaintances or strangers offering unexpected assistance, this may be another sign. “Because of the halo effect, where attractiveness is associated with positive qualities, we tend to subconsciously be friendlier and more generous to those we find attractive,” she notes.
