How to Flirt with a Guy

Who knew with just a flip of the hair, a sultry glance, and a killer smile a guy can be smitten with any girl. However, not all of us have the (ahem) balls to perform such an overt act to the opposite sex, let alone a guy we like! Luckily for us, there are subtle yet effective ways of luring that special someone to us.

Instructions

Difficulty: Easy
Step1
First thing first, flirting is a way to impress a guy with your natural beauty and personality. It is NOT something where you should completely change who you are to gain his attention. If you do, you are most likely setting yourself up for disaster.
Step2
Dress up on days you expect to see your special guy. Lets face it, guys are attracted to girls who can take care of herself. This does NOT mean wearing skimpy skirts and lots of makeup. Wear clothes that compliment your body and makeup that enhance your facial features. Guys are not attracted to a girl who wears more makeup than a circus entertainer.
Step3
Looking good does very little if you don't have confidence! Again, don't go in extremes. Be confident in the way you walk and talk, but not to the point where it may come off as arrogant. Confident and humble is a good mixture to have.
Step4
Eye contact is an extremely useful tactic you can use to your advantage. Nothing says "come hither" than a dreamy glance into a guy's eye. If you two are in a room with many people,catch his glance for no more than 2 seconds then look away. It leaves an air of mystery. When talking to him manage to give him just enough eye contact to make him feel confortable. How can you tell? Normally, a guy will stare at your face when you are having a conversation. He will start looking down and shifting his feet if he begins to feel uncomfortable. If you see these signs minimize the eye contact and step back a little. Giving the guy a second to catch his breath works wonders.
Step5
Okay, we've talked about the outside appearance...now lets get to the most important part....YOU!!! Afterall, the outside only advertises what's so great about you. Guys like girls who are funny and know how to have a good time. Make sure you're smiling a lot around him. When giving a conversation, be interesting! It can be hard to keep any guy's attention in a conversation, so be energetic (but not hyper). Talk about something you both share in common, whether it is sports, music, or even a funny incident you both happen to have just witnessed.
Step6
If you feel like he's giving you the tell-tale signs of being attracted to you (aka smiling, leaning in, keeping eye contact, standing feet shoulder length apart, etc), touch him subtly. Touch his shoulder slightly when talking or give him a joking push.
Step7
Talk to other guys around him. Show him you are desirable, BUT do not flirt too much with them. You'll put yourself in the situation of him thinking you are too flirtatious.

Tips & Warnings

  • Practice flirting with all kinds of guys around you. Whether it is the mall, or a restaurant. Give a guy a brief glance or smile, nothing too major. Getting a positive response can even lift up your day!
  • Sometimes a guy may not be interested despite your attempts. Never force yourself to continue to flirting, as it might just turn him off even more. Don't fret, there's plenty of other fish in the sea.
  • Don't flirt with married men!! You are just asking yourself for trouble.
