Flirting with someone you just met, or even haven't met yet, can be pretty intimidating. How do you let him know that you're into him? Here's the secret.

Difficulty: Moderately Easy
Instructions
  1. Step 1

    Look at his eyes. You might be shy and have trouble meeting eyes but it is easier than actually saying something. Catch his attention, look at him a little longer than 'comfortable' and then look away and look back every once in a while.

  2. Step 2

    Smile when he looks back at you. This gives him something to go on, something outside of wondering if you're staring at a stain on his shirt or if his hair is sticking up. Smiling gives a good impression.

  3. Step 3

    Get yourself alone if you're with a group. It is hard for a guy to flirt back or approach if you are in a group. Make an excuse to wander in his direction, without taking your group with you.

  4. Step 4

    The old accidental bumping into each other trick can usually strike up a conversation if you're too shy to actually say hello. If you're brave, do say hi when you walk past him. Smile, look in his eyes when you say it.

  5. Step 5

    Have his attention? Keep your eyes on him. Even if you aren't able to look at his eyes the whole time without appearing creepy, do what it takes to let him know you have his full attention.

  6. Step 6

    Brief touches add way more than whatever you could possibly say. His arm is should be a safe spot to brush your hand against.

  7. Step 7

    What to talk about? Him. Ask questions. Offer a little of yourself, but try to listen to him and what he has to say. Then ask questions about what he talks about. Don't forget to say something of yourself though, you need him to remember you.

  8. Step 8

    Obviously a situation could go a million different ways, but if you're trying to hint as to wanting to give phone number, a safe way to ask for it is something like, "It was nice talking to you, we should do it again sometime. How would I reach you?"

Tips & Warnings
  • Smiling is probably the most important. It tells the guy you're happy about what's going on and happy to be around him. That's a good impression to make.
  • Try to avoid talking about past relationships or your personal problems the first few times. Keep those first few moments fun by talking about positive things.
  • Is he being a jerk? Go silent. It kills the conversation when you say bare minimum and he might move on to someone else.
  • Be safe. Don't approach guys where no one else will be able see the two of you. Don't let him lead you outside or away from people that first time.
