I realized last night that my job has turned me into a full-time, 24/7, boring, safe, teacher.

A sly smile behind your wine glass and a bat of the eye. A hearty laugh and smile.

I like the pants ripping thing...I wish I could partake more often than I do now...

lots of cleavage,..and looking sexy..as well, lick your lips and apply lip gloss every 20 seconds...will do the trick..

However, the most important thing is confidence, confidence..I am finding that out in my lovelife..and dont be afraid to be fun, and smile..

Now, if I just can succeed with my latest crush..

I'm not sure this is flirting but I would say...
Don't be afraid to start the conversation. What's the worst that could happen? He walks away? No big deal.

I say this because I do it, a lot. Instead of just sitting down and talking with a guy I'll shy away for fear that I won't have the right thing to say. Who cares, right?

When I'm trying to flirt with a guy I like, I try to tell a funny story and laugh a lot while I'm telling it.

One thing I find that works nicely is when you're checking him out ... make sure he catches you checking him out. And when he does- hold the gaze for a few seconds. There is nothing more facinating to a guy then catching a girl looking at him... and then walk away. Do it a few times throughout the nite and you will talk eventually.

Ooo, that's good technique- i'm going to try to remember that next time i'm out at the bar or other such places.

I think cleavage is counter productive unless you're out to attract a guy that will only have a conversation with your chest. Wear something because you're comfortable and feel sexy and good about yourself...not just to attract a man.

Eye Contact: What a woman is attempting to do when a man is talking to her chest. ;-)

I'm not saying to wear a turtleneck and sweater vest and pants to the floor...but truly, less is more. All the guys I've ever known always made comments about "underdressed" girls in the crowd..and they weren't complimentary. Sure they got noticed...a lot...but it wasn't the good kind of attention.

hmmm...this is probably after the flirting stage, but ask him out for a drink first! Most guys love a girl who makes the first date :)

Another tip: make eye contact, smile, then look away for a second and then look back...winks work too if you can pull it off ;)
