Soft Touches

Honestly, this is one of the top ways to flirt that is still subtle! If your crush sits next to you anywhere or you are trying to flirt up a guy on the bar, just touch his arm, his leg, his shoulder. Pick imaginary lint from his shirt or brush back his hair a little bit. These are all ways that you can touch him softly, without seeming like you are overdoing it!

2

Learn Common Ground

When you are flirting, it is very important for you to learn all about the common ground that you two share. If he is into video games, what type of video games does he like? Do you like the same kind? These will be the kinds of things that your conversations with him will be made up of!

3

Compliment

Did you know that compliments with a guy go a very, very long way? Just complimenting the way his jeans fit or even the way his hair looks can really stroke his ego and make him feel oh-so-special! Don't layer on the compliments too thick though, as that can be overdoing it, but littering one or two here and there is a great idea!

4

Not Too Much Sarcasm

Sarcasm in a girl is super attractive, but you don't want to be sarcastic about everything, that can be a huge turn-off. Just incorporate a thin layer of sarcasm and go along with his sense of humor! This is one trick that I had to learn and temper down.

Don't Cross Arms

Weird, right, how crossing your arms can seem like a turn-off? What it does is close you off. Your body language when you are flirting is very, very important and crossing your arms around your waist or bust can actually make you seem very unapproachable. So keep your arms at your sides and you'll see just how approachable you really are!

Famous Quotes

Love is like a friendship caught on fire. In the beginning a flame, very pretty, often hot and fierce, but still only light and flickering. As love grows older, our hearts mature and our love becomes as coals, deep-burning and unquenchable.

Lots of Eye Contact

I know that whenever I do a flirting post, I constantly am talking about eye contact, but it's so true! I know that looking down and being coy or shy when you are trying to flirt with your crush might seem like an natural thing, but girls, look up. Look him in his eyes and show just how confident you are in yourself!

Flash a Smile

Finally, put a smile on your face! This is honestly one of the best ways to appear completely approachable and it will instantly lure any guy in at all! Also, a smile is a great way to let him know that you are interested and that you find him funny. Trust me on this, smiling can go a very long way!

Flirting without overdoing it is really difficult, but it can be done! If you're a girl that doesn't know who to flirt without completely overdoing it, did these tips help? What other tips do you have for flirting? Give it up!

Where Thoughts and Opinions Converge

Great tips. I'm so shy when it comes to flirting but I think I could probably do a few of these without feeling awkward and as though I look desperate. Thanks!

#6 says lots of eye contact but I don't know why every time I make eye contact my eyes water so it looks like i'm crying! :(

I've heard it said that touching a guys leg is a clear signal that you are interested in sex. Regardless - I think touching might be misconstrued

Very good tips too, I'll keep these in mind for sure!

I agree with Dee Dee that could be a little weird, but another tip could be to tell jokes and be funny. Obviously without trying too hard, but guys like to mess around so they want a girl who can have fun and make them laugh!

If I make a guy(by smiling,looking into his eyes) stutter does it mean anything? Ik that's wierd but I gotta know...

Omgg yay! But he's like 26 and I'm like 17 I'm going to the same college he attends next year any suggestion?
