1. Be Playful

You can't expect to make a man fall in love with you if you're always talking about politics and medical issues. Intellectual conversation is great, but to be a great flirt, you need to have a playful side. That means that you need to stop taking everything so seriously. Crack jokes, tease him, and smile as often as possible! Keep things light.

2. Look the Part

No matter how verbally charming you are, you won't get anywhere with a guy if your body language and looks aren't doing their part. You need to have good hygiene, dress your best, and look like you're happy to be around him. That means you should avoid crossing your arms and habitually checking your phone. You should look as interested in him as you sound.

3. Know How to Respond

A great flirt is a great conversationalist. Unless you're texting your crush, you can't pause for ten minutes to think of an excellent response. You need to figure out how to keep a conversation going. It might help to think up a few interesting topics ahead of time so that you can redirect the conversation toward them if things get boring.

4. Don't Get Embarrassed

You can't be a great flirt if you're constantly worried about embarrassing yourself. If you're terrified of rejection, then you're going to hold yourself back from making flirty comments and giving compliments. You need to be fearless to flirt. Stop thinking about the bad things that could happen and focus on the good.

If you're looking to engage your partner in intriguing conversations, why not try some hypothetical questions for couples? These fun queries will not only keep the conversation lively but also stimulate deep thoughts and potentially reveal insights about each other's personality and thought processes.

5. Pay Attention

You can't allow the conversation to revolve around you. You need to make sure that you give your crush time to talk. More importantly, you need to actually listen to what he's saying. Don't ignore him, because you're so focused on how you're sitting and if your make-up got messed up. He'll be able to tell if you're actually listening to him, so no matter how distracting his hotness is, listen to his words.

6. Remember the Little Things

Great flirts know the importance of subtle moves. Lightly touching his leg is better than grabbing his arm. Occasionally glancing over at him is better than just staring. Tiny compliments about his appearance are better than huge ones about how perfect he is. Moderation is key.

***

It's those small, effortless gestures that can leave a lasting impression. A brief, gentle touch on the arm signals interest without overwhelming him. Maintaining eye contact for a few seconds, paired with a playful smile, indicates you're engaged in the moment. Whisper a light-hearted jest about his quirky tie or compliment his smile; these understated comments may resonate louder than grand overtures. Flirting isn't about grand declarations; it's an artful dance of nuance and restraint.

7. Be Confident

Confidence is the answer to all of life's biggest questions. It's the way to get a guy, get a job, and get a free drink. Even if you're shy and insecure, you're capable of faking confidence. Once you learn how to do that, it'll eventually start feeling real.

You'll get better at flirting the more that you do it, so don't hold yourself back. Any man would be happy to get your attention! Do you consider yourself an amazing flirt or do you need to work on your skills?

I need to work on my skills lol

I'm happily married and I still flirt. Make a date night with your husband but role play as other people....flirt til he wants to snatch your clothes off....trust me, it works. Been married for 25 years and we are still hot and sexy for one another.

Touching leg????? 😶

Hi! I need help! I can do all these things on this list except for the be confident part 😕 that literally is the main thing and I have problems with it! Can you give me advice on how to be confident?

Well I looked on this guys Instagram and he put up a picture of him and his girlfriend just 14 weeks ago, but why is he wanting to go to town with me and play fight me? Guys usually only play fight when they fancy you. Or is that just me? I hate getting too attached to a guy knowing they probably don't feel the same way back:( like I had so much fun on Tuesday with Ryan (that's his name) we sat down somewhere quiet and just talked and laughed together, he grabbed my waist as I was trying to get up from him and pulled me back and tickled me. I'm so confused, but I don't want to ask if he still has a girl friend because it was only 14 weeks ago, he didn't even know me then by the way, kinda only just got to know Ryan in these past 2 weeks. He's a little shy around me but on that Tuesday he did touch my face and we was getting quite close to each other but not a kiss! we just cuddled and arm wrestled each other (he won lol) I just hate having a really good time with someone but yet he's talking to other girls. Am I being over-protective or not? Is he a player? Because it seems to me he just likes being entertained by all the girls, unless it's trying to make me jealous on purpose. Help?xx

Well I have a boyfriend , He keeps asking me how he wants to kiss.. Is he insecure or what? I just don't know what to do or say ugh?!! Thanks!

@jessica ... U know what u need to be confident and leave the feeling of loosing him cause honestly don't chase him at all show him how important u re to him .. And make him jealous ( that always works) and just be ur self don't fake anything trying know him better let him know u better and talk to him in such a way that he gets interested into u.. An eventually decides to go out with u ... Just feel attractive and be confident :) don't worry he will reply .. XX

@courtne it did! thank you so much :)

I love this!

@kanika thankyou so much, that has honestly helped me! Yeah I guess you're right, I should let him make the first move. I give him hints saying "I really do like you" and he either changes the subject or goes shy, but I guess that's what boys do if they're attracted to you right? I'm really hoping he does ask me out, but I'm just going to wait and see. The cutest thing about him is he will stay up until I fall asleep🙈 and he always gives little flirty texts saying "fight me" or "you've got no chance I'll tickle you" with lots of heart emoji's so yeah. Maybe there could be some chemistry between me and him:) thanks again Kanika! Xx
