I'm warning you all know, this'll be long. So I've been flirting with a friend of mine I've know for a long time recently. She is a stunning, blonde, slim girl with possibly the sweetest smile I've ever seen. I have had some discussions with my friends about what kind of flirting works best. We argued and came to the conclusion that it depends really, but can some people share some of their favored styles. And could some of the fine girls in these forums shed some light on wether I'm being stupid or not. I'd like to talk about how I came up with the way I learned to flirt. Up to this point, i really couldn't flirt for shit but I just stumbled on something I thought girls seemed to quite like. I was at a party for my friends birthday and I was a little drunk(off to a fantastic start) and I saw my friend(the first one mentioned). So I walk up to her and start to chat, I say her hair looked really pretty that night(which is a lie, it always looks nice). So were talking and I ask her why I never see her with a guy, an stunning girl like her should be fighting them off with a stick. She seemed to take as a very nice complimented,(big smile, giggle and she thanked me sincerely for the compliment). Then she mentioned that I'm never with a girl and the usual argument of no I'm not good-looking and her saying I'm quite handsome. Then for some crazy reason I just plucked up the courage and said: "Look (name withheld), I'm sorry if this makes you uncomfortable or anything(or something along those lines), but your looking really beautiful tonight. She really liked that and the rest I can't remember, but we started to talk to some other people together. My friends didn't know anyone really there and were eager to go so they got me to leave. But I gave her a hug goodbye, but my hand stroked down her arm and held her hand slightly as I started to walk away, but she kept her hand in mine for the briefest moment before I left. -exhale- So am I going somewhere or is it just wishful thinking? (Sorry it's so badly put together) To make this clear in that mess of a post I'll clarify what I'm asking: Is the way I flirt of any use? Do you think she's interested in me? How do all of you like to flirt?
sounds like its working for you. every girl is different. I personally wouldnt go for that kind of flirting...I dont really like to be hit on in an obvious way. It makes me uncomfortable. If theres chemistry, its natural. Theres no effort. I have incredible chemistry with a friend of mine but our flirtation is really subtle and shy and sweet...the way he gets this goofy smile on his face when I talk to him, how whenever I look at him I catch him staring at me but he looks away really quickly ,then peeks a glance back at me and looks away again.....whenever we do touch we hold our contact for a minute, but its not done in an intentional manner, its almost like we just can't pull away. If he ever said anything to me like what you said to your friend, I think it would weird me out...I like the fact that I make him too shy to say things like that. but it sounds like your lady friend likes it, so i would keep that up. It sounds like she likes you by the way she asked why you werent ever with a girl and told you that you were handsome.
Hooray a reply! -ahem- Anyway thank you for sharing, it's good to get other opinions on stuff lol. But what I'm hoping is that this all isn't just a cruel joke played on me by my brain for being drunk. I used to be quite shy when I was a bit younger, I really didn't know how to talk to girls and to an extent, still don't. Flirting can be quite fun though.
Well.. You just have to know who to show it to. I usually aim for the known sluts, especially when they are drunk.
Advice, I'll quote you twice to make a few different points: #1. Try not to bombard her with so many compliments. The girls I know all say there is such a thing as "too many compliments" #2. Especially when they kind of sound the same (redundant), and are kind of generic as well. #3. With that said, be more unique with the compliments you make. Show her you notice something subtle about her. Girls hear how nice their hair is or how beautiful and stunning they are all the time. Find something that most guys might not notice. Recap: Be more subtle, and don't lay it on so heavy. 1. Judging from your wording in this post, work on your confidence man! 2. Don't beat around the bush, just say it! Be straightforward! None of this "if this makes you uncomfortable or anything..." It sounds awkward, similar to saying "like" and "um" all the time. Recap: Work on the confidence and be more blunt!
A clonk on the head with a club and dragging her back to your cave by her hair usually does the trick.
Listen carefully. Slap her ass, tell her her tits are massive and awesome ask her if she puts out after a few drinks. buy her a few drinks.
OR you could just listen to her, quaintly compliment her- I have always found myself being quite successful because I don't try and nose dive into anyones knickers. End of, genuinely be interested.
no matter how beautiful she is, no matter how tall, full chested, no matter how golden her locks, how round her ass, how quick her wit, how sweet her demeanor, how soft her lips, or how graceful are her hips.... some guy, somewhere, is totally sick of putting up with her shit.
