    So tonight I sort of went out on my first date-ish type of thing, though it wasn't really that. I don't even know. But no matter what you call the situation, I was hanging out downtown with a guy and his best friend (a girl). Anyway, this guy is unbelievably cute, and I really wanted to flirt with him. But I realized that I DON'T KNOW HOW!!!

    So, any flirting tips? Seriously, just anything would help.

    Ive always found that a lot of eye contact and smiles help....some people see those things as flirting....and get the person to talk about themselves, and act like you are REALLY inhterested in whatever they are saying...even if your not !!!!

    When I saw my tutor on the train. There were smiles and a lot of eye contact. I barely looked away when I was talking to her and neither did she.

    I don't know it seems alot easier to flirt with other guys than girls just a semi long stare and a smile sometimes works or even outright saying "hey you're kind of cute." but I'd usually restrain from doing that until you are sure the guy is gay because then you might feel like an ass because you made someone feel uncomfortable

    Eye contact and smiling are key. However, I'd also encourage you to look away once in a while and then look back. Really prolonged eye contact can be too intense for lots of people and it often goes beyond flirting into heavy duty cruising territory.

    Thanks everyone. I saw him again tonight and kind of blew it on the flirting, but I guess we're still kind of getting to know each other better. It's pretty obvious to me that we're both interested in each other... next time I might be daring enough to grab for his hand, but I'm not sure. We'll see.

    Are you sure
    he is gay?
    Because I don't
    think grabbing a
    heterosexual's
    hand is too
    good. When I
    am interested
    in someone,
    I notice that
    I tend to snort
    when I laugh.
    I usually only
    snort when a
    joke is effing
    hilarious.
    Advice-wise:
    Be friendly.
    Be polite.
    Be yourself.
    It may not
    be flirting 101,
    but it may
    make a world
    of difference.
    Good luck, mon ami.

    Don't grab his hand, grab his balls.

    Let him know exacally where you're at. And if he doesn't resist, then finger his hole. go from there.

    Let's see... He's
    gay and you're into
    him, ay? I have
    the same problem
    with a sexy-ass
    English kid. 'Cept
    THAT ONE has an
    effing boyfriend!
    Well, back to you.
    Smile a lot (unless
    your teeth are icky).
    Laugh at his lame-
    ass jokes. Agree
    with him. Whether
    gay or straight, there
    is nothing guys
    like more (well, except
    for sex) than having
    someone agree with
    their dumbass ideas.
    Do not agree, however,
    if his dumbass idea
    is to set himself on
    fire. Be close, but not
    too close - and NOT
    too obvious.
    Personally, I hate
    it when people want
    to sit by me SO bad
    and they are almost
    on TOP of me.
    Be entertaining, but
    not annoying. Like
    in drama: know when
    to stop!
    I wishes you
    the luckiest best.

    Thanks you guys. Things are going pretty well with him. Nothing has really happened yet, but we're getting there.

    Just a little background info: He's a freshman in college, and I'm a junior in high school. But he's only 11 months older than me, which is kind of weird. But anyway, we've been seeing each other whenever possible, and it's pretty obvious that we like each other. He visited me at work last night, and we had lunch together today (I have an open campus policy, and my high school is in downtown Portland, so I can basically walk anywhere for lunch; it's great). And we're planning on going out for sushi on Saturday night. So basically it's only a matter of time, and being alone, I guess. And I think Saturday night will be the perfect opportunity for something to happen.

    flirting isn't really something i can explain...

    it will come natural.

    Sounds good. I might suggest that you don't wear socks and maybe hint that he shouldn't wear any underwear too. It could be a big flirt and might get things rolling.

    It has worked for me.

    Uhhhh I feel like that would be a little too straight-forward. I'm not just trying to get into his pants. I actually like the guy.
