A lot of women sit around and wait for Mr. or Mrs. Right to fall into their lap. It simply won't happen. You can't control fate, but you can help fate out by being a good flirt and being a people magnet. Please note: this article is geared towards straight females, because toying with men is my specialty, but I imagine this will also work for lesbian females as well.

Instructions

Difficulty: Challenging

Things You’ll Need:

  • confidence
  • intellect
  • charm
  • sex appeal
  • a saucy smile
Step1
Flirt EVERYWHERE. Don't just try to reach out and meet/ flirt with people while you're out with your friends at a bar or club. Every place you go during your day is full of people you can flirt with. Flirt with people at the grocery store, flirt with people at the pharmacy, people at the post office, people on the street, and if you're brave enough, people at work.
Step2
Don't be a flirting snob, flirt with anyone and everyone you can, its great practice as long as you don't flirt with someone that could cause you harm. If an old man whistles at you while you're walking down the street, say "the hell with it" and give him a saucy comment and flash that big beautiful smile of yours. No, you might not want to enter a relationship with someone 40 years older than you, but being a little frisky with an elderly person gives you good practice, is usually harmless, and it will definatly make that gentleman's day. Flirt with people out of your league, in your league, flirt with people who approach you, flirt with people YOU have to approach. Be out going but tactful at the same time.
Step3
Keep it short, sweet, and witty. For example: A lot of men will tease a woman they are interested in. Tease back without being mean, come up with a smart response that is slightly catty but won't get you labeled as a "bitch". Don't cling to the conversation, play hard to get a be the one to walk away. If you keep flirting too much for too long you will look desperate.
Step4
Know the difference between sexy and ****ty. If a guy gets too sexual or obscene in his flirting or comments to you, don't sit there and giggle and think its funny, don't say anything and walk away. Letting guys talk to you like you work the corner is ****ty, not giving guys who are pigs the time of day makes you sexy.
Step5
Be confident and know how to take a compliment. I watch guys compliment women all of the time and the women will respond with negative comments about their bodies, weight, or how they dress.

For example the guy says : " I love your hair, its so soft"
and the woman says: " Yeah I have great hair, too bad I'm fat and I don't have a great stomach."

The type of guys you want to attract will not think a woman with low-self esteem is sexy. The only type of guys that want insecure women are predators and pigs, which you need to stay away from.

Be confident, walk around like you OWN the place you're in and be FIERCE. No one will love you until you love yourself.
Step6
Men will always try to play little games with women they flirt with to try to get a reaction out of them, because they think its cute. If you respond with the typical " OMG YOU JERK" and get all whiney, you're going to react like every other broad on the planet does. My advice is that you give it right back to them. Guys can dish it out, but can your guy take it? Show him you don't want a wimp for a man and that you're a challenge, not a push over.

Tips & Warnings

  • The minute you tell yourself you don't want a boyfriend, it will start raining men
  • act like you don't need a man, or could care less about the guy you're flirting with. men like to hunt and tackle
  • Approach and flirt with the quiet guy in the room, hes likely to be the only guy who isn't a huge jerk.
  • stop trying to find a boyfriend in the bar, it wont happen
  • just remember, when a guy is spitting game, no matter how sincere it sounds, they are always trying to get in your pants
