Top Flirting Tips
- Be in the right mood - there's no point in setting yourself to make a 'wow' impression if you're just not feeling up to it!
- Don't concentrate only on the outcome. If you start out thinking that you've got to make your flirting work - then it won't. Just relax and enjoy yourself and see what materializes.
- If it doesn't work first time- so what? It gets better with practice.
- Give yourself some feedback. I don't mean over-analysing your technique, but try and remember what got a look of interest, a raised eyebrow, or a smile
- Practice your signals - the smile, the slightly lingering look, playing with your wine glass, or your hair. Try not to overplay them or you could just come across as looking plain daft.
- Have a practice first with your mates, and let them give you feedback first to let you know how it looks.
- There are some simple cues though - pointing your body in their direction, subtly mirroring their actions, making eye contact, flashing your eyebrows every now and again, all show you're interested
- Be approachable - Don't sit there hunched up or with your arms folded, or even standing in the centre of a huge group of mates. If you want him to come on over to you, make sure you look approachable
- Be interested - that'll make you interesting. People love to talk about themselves, ask him about what he enjoys doings, his biggest life turn-ons, etc. He'll be flattered you're taking an interest.
- Ask open-ended questions - try and encourage him to open up in conversation. It'll help to spur you on to ask questions based on what he's replying with
- Most importantly be yourself - most people will see through you trying to pretend to be something you're not
