Flirting: What Works

 

Reverse roles

How do you like to be flirted with? Consider giving out what you enjoy getting.

Keep it real

If the person isn’t interested, know that it’s their loss, not yours.

Start small

Don’t expect to say and do everything the first time you talk or hang out. Relax!

Be yourself

Let the person know who you are from the start. If they don’t like your personality, chances are that you won’t like their personality. You definitely won’t like faking it.

Go with it

If they seem interested, and you are still into it, do what comes naturally.

Back away

If they don’t seem interested, stop flirting.

Forget about it

If the person you like treats you with disrespect, be thankful you didn't waste any more time on them. They’re obviously not worth it. Walk away.

Keep your eyes open

After all that effort, you might decide this thing is not so great. Flirting doesn’t make you committed for life. If it turns out that the other person is interested but you’re not, tell them.
