Is there a set of rules to govern flirting with a guy? Are you aware of how your words and your body language can send messages? Do you want to learn how to show him that you are interested without saying it outright? Men and women have been practicing the art of flirting since the dawn of time. If you have been thinking that only those who are naturals can become great flirters, you are wrong. Anyone can learn the rules of flirting with a guy to make him like you. Here are some tips to help you get started.

Eye contact

Rule number one to successful flirting is making eye contact. How else will he know that you have set your sights on him in the first place? If you let your eyes linger over him for a moment, this can be a very powerful tool to getting the point across that you have noticed him and like what you see. Hold his gaze for a few seconds before you look away.

Dazzle Him

No one can resist a well intentioned smile. It not only lights up your face and makes you look your ultimate best, but it suggests that you have a sunny and fun personality to go along with it. Smiling may seem too common to you to seem like it counts as flirting, but it is actually one of the key elements of successful non-verbal communication.

Appeal to His Senses

When you are ready to take it to the next level of flirtation, heighten his senses by touching him. There is definitely a right and a wrong way to do this and you don’t want to mess with the wrong way. Never grab him or come on too strong. Instead, lightly brush his arm with your fingers or lean against him for an instant, then move away. You want to stimulate his senses, but then leave him longing to feel your touch again.

Whatever you do, always be natural. Don’t bat your eyes at him like a cartoon character or fawn all over him as if he were a Greek god. Acting like that shouldn’t even be called flirting, and he certainly will not find it attractive if you are acting the fool. The most important thing that you can learn about flirting with a guy is to be yourself and be subtle. Less here is always more.
