7 ways to flirt without saying a word


 

Check these out, too...

You talk all the time, but 90 percent of communication is nonverbal. So what does that mean when it comes to your eye candy? A guy can tell if you like him, not based on what you say, but by small gestures and movements. So when you’re flirting, be aware of your body language because it’s telling him a lot. Here are a few subtle tricks to show him you’re interested:

 

Touch his arm. If you’re laughing at a joke he just told, placing your hand on his shoulder shows him that you like having him near and keeps you out of the friend zone.
 
Eye contact. Keeping eye contact means that you’re listening and genuinely interested.
 
Posture. Sitting up straight shows you’re confident and you want him to talk to you. Slouching shows lack of interest and crossing your arms can be a defensive position. Translation: he will think you don’t want him around.
 
Smile. Showing your pearly whites is open and welcoming and shows that you enjoy his company. 
 
Lean in. Getting close to him makes everything a little more personal. Face his direction to show you’re into him.
 
Fiddle with your hair. When people are nervous, they fidget. Guys know this, and when you coyly run your hands through your hair or flip it behind your shoulder, he’ll notice.
 
Raise your brows. You probably do it without noticing, but when you see something you like (like a cute guy) you raise your eyebrows slightly. Keeping them slightly raised for a moment longer shows how expressive you are. Plus, he might get the idea you think he’s cute, which is the whole point of flirting!

Okay, my crush,I think only sees me as a friend. I catch him staring at me, and all of that, and I go a littl crazy around him but I've got that under control so we're pretty much friends. How can I push it further? We aren't close but I want to be. How do I do this?
Thx

Hey girlie,

If you are friends now maybe you can get closer to him as friends and then go from there. You could ask him to hang out in a group with your friends, or set up a study date with him to go over schoolwork. Or you could just talk to him at lunch and after school! Once you are close friends you could start dropping hints that you like him Smile Good luck chica!

MODMODMOD-There is a cutie guy i like. he is allways stairing at me. He may or may not have a girlfriend. a few month ago i asked him out and he said no. Now he kinda flirts with me....what do i do??

Hey girlie,

If you're not sure if he has a girlfriend, maybe you could keep getting to know him as friends and see if he mentions anything. Try talking to him at lunch and after school about classes and ask what he likes to do after school and on weekends. If he has a girlfriend, he will probably mention it!

1. Okay so my friend has liked this guy for a really long time. He now has a girlfriend. My friend is really sad and I feel bad for her but now all she talks about is him. It is getting really annoying.
2. On thursday, we are having a valentines dance. I am wearing a strapless red flowy dress with tights and black combat boots. How should I do my hair and makeup? My hair is brown, wavy and shoulder length. My eyes are green and I have paleish skin and full lips.
THANKS!!

 

Hey girlie, 1. try pointing out a new cute boy that she might like. Helping her find a new crush will help her get over the old one. 2. wear you makeup naturally. You don't want to overdo it so keep it simple with some eye makeup and lipstick. Pull your hair back into a pretty updo or curl it.

the guy i like is really nice and makes everyone laugh. one of my friends said he has made some bad desicions though. i am one of those people who say the past is the past and it should stay there. is there a way i can go out with him without my friends thinking poorly about it? he always makes eye contact and he is always trying to make me laugh. i sometimes notice him watching me if im having a bad day as well. is he even interested in the first place? or is he just being friendly? if he is interested, should i ask him out or wait? any advice on what i should do from here would be greatly appreciated!!!!

 

Hey girlie, it's too early to tell if he's interested. Spend more time with him and do some flirting to see how he responds. As long as you're sure that he's changed, you'll be able to convince your friend that he's a good guy for you.

i kinda like this guy i see him twice a week for abut an hour.we do not go to the same school.he is very shy.so am i.he always sits far away from me.but he always look back.how do i tell if he likes me????i have never talked to him before.how do i break the ice???
thanks




Try talking to him first! Maybe you guys can compare your schools or talk about friends or family. Start with the small talk, which will lead to longer and better conversations. You won't be able to tell if he likes you until you talk to him first!
