Figuring out how to flirt with a guy is most definitely not as simple as it initially sounds. Showing a man that you are into them or getting him to notice you? Not a piece of cake, always. But, of course, some women are born with ‘the gift of the gab’, while other women are just naturally flirty, and then there are those lucky few women who just get into this whole flirting thing instinctively. 

Sadly, the introverts amongst us don’t really enjoy the same sort of advantages. So besides starting with the usual “, I like you, would you like to go out?” (…I am guessing directness works well at times?) how do you engage in some good ol’ subtle flirting and show the guy that you can’t stop staring? 

So, to answer your question, I have done some intensive research involving dating experts, psychologists, and body language experts – and now I am ready to share the *best* flirting tips and advice (thank me later). So, keep reading to find out how to flirt with a guy without really flirting at all!

The Art Of Flirting: What Turns Guys On?

Flirting does not come easily to most of us. Even the ones who are pretty confident freeze up and utter a very wimpy “hey” especially when they watch their crush appearing close to them. 

“You don’t need a driver’s license to drive me crazy”

When you have thoughts of a woman flirting, what is the first probable thing which comes to your mind? Touching the guy unnecessarily? Laughing at his jokes? A shrilly high-pitched voice? A few sexual innuendos? Lots of witty banter? Public display of affection? Intense eye contact which makes everyone around want to throw up?

Okay, you can definitely call THAT flirting. But it is one of the ways of flirting that makes people around you cringe with an urge to scream ‘GET A ROOM NOW!’ to the couple. 

So instead of making it THAT obvious with cringy pick-up lines or worse, flirty quotes, why not resort to flirting techniques that actually work without embarrassing you – because the most common display of flirting is too over-the-top for comfort. And then it does not relay flirting when you are obvious about it – rather, it’s dry humping, only verbal.

“Let’s play Titanic. You be the ocean, and I’ll go down on you.”

Honestly, the best type of flirting is characterized by a more subtle, and discreet approach, one which actually makes a man fall for you (hard) without knowing why they are even falling for you in the first place. Knowing how to subtly flirt with a guy is like mastering a form of art, and that is exactly why we are here!

Turning Him On With Just A Few Words: How To Flirt With A Guy?

Just A Few Words

Men might think twice even before attempting to flirt, but if you actually follow the steps mentioned below, you’ll find appealing men warming up to you and engaging in some subtle flirting with you, even in the presence of their girlfriends!

I am hoping you do know this secret, right? Guys are often drawn or attracted to women they can actually flirt with – work that magic (and that ass too!)

“I’m a tattoo artist. Wanna try a red mark on your neck?”

Remember, you are not going to make any move initially if you are familiar with tips on how to flirt with a guy, and that too subtly. Just follow the steps as simple mentioned below, and watch yourself making any man you want to flirt with you – you don’t even have to make the first move ever. 

Be Confident:

Trust me, there is nothing sexier than confidence. Your crush and everyone else will definitely notice if you are strutting down the hallway like you simply own it – confidence sends out a whole ‘flirt with me’ signal. Your crush, in fact, would want to find out more about that girl who was brimming with charms and confidence.

Draw attention To Your Body (Especially Lips):

Draw attention To Your Body

This one sounds totally ridiculous but it works every single time and is much better than juicy dates messages, or the like. Get that pout out, and instead keep a lip gloss or chapstick handy – you might just spot your crush and need to swipe on that extra layer! Your crush will keep thinking about those red lips throughout the day. 

“Kissing burns 6.4 calories a minute. Wanna workout?”

Smile And Say ‘Hi!’:

Smile And Say Hi!

I know how seeing a crush approaching while you are walking down the hallway can prove to be a scary feeling. In fact, your reaction probably will be to stare at your smartphone pretending hoe you are really busy but ignore these instincts. Just look up with a smile – finish it with a small wave, a ‘hi,’ and then keep walking. Boom—you will find yourself on the radar of your crush.

Ignore Your Crush But Not Always:

Ignore Your Crush But Not Always

It sounds almost counterintuitive, doesn’t it? But just imagine coming across your crush when he is with his friends somewhere in public. Say ‘hi’ to the friends first and immediately strike up a conversation. Your crush will automatically feel a little left out until you take a turn and include them (it might just make their day so much better).

“You have lips. I have lips. Interesting.”

Sometimes, Be Obvious:

Be Obvious

Maybe you are just playing frisbee inside the park and “accidentally” you end up throwing it towards the cutie nearby. An apology that’s exaggerated might let them know that you are flirting, and that too on purpose leading to a good conversation of sorts.
