Flirting

[Asturiel]

I'd say the odds are slightly worse than that.

Personally I try to find some common ground with them on something and talk about that. The trouble is there aren't enough girls in the world that like YuGiOh abridged.... *sob*

I'd say your likely not trying hard enough, or just looking for less nerdy girls.

Don't flirt. Flirting doesn't mean shit.

Talk to women like they're people, it's easy.

No reason you cant do both. Alot of girls like flirting.

Relationship= Ask whats wrong when their down, and acually help them.

Being a Flirt=When their down make them smile, crack a joke ect.

Bad when you ask whats wrong and she tells you "Make me laugh im in a bad mood" thats where that blows up in your face.

Build a long friendship with the girl, during the course of which (two years plus), you slowly start to let on to the fact that you might like her as more than a friend. Make sure you are always there when her other relationships go bad, comfort her, talk to her, learn everything about her and respond whenever she calls.

Eventually, in a moment of weakness, she will think 'maybe this is the guy who's for me?' And she'll be yours. All you have to do then is convince her that true love doesn't exist, and you must find happiness with whoever you're with, rather than endlessly chasing a dream, while you live in constant fear that she'll one day realise she never loved you, ony needed to feel loved.

Or, you know, just come out and say it.

That sounds alot like that XKCD comic...
OT: Just be yourself but confident. Talk to her but dont studder every second word. Also dont try is a major thing unless your a genius actor, in which case I dont know why you need flirtatious help.

Wow your love life must be really horrible because you are talking about on a forum. Have fun being a lonely sad ass.

I can flirt but I can't ever tell when someone is flirting with me, so I kinda suck at it.

*wink like crazy*

*licks lips*

Hey baby. Wanna come over to my house and have hot monkey sex?

Now: Can you find the flirting?

OT: I've flirted before. It's fun.

The blunt and harsh way of putting it, but truthful nevertheless.

There's one girl who doesn't flirt with me at all. But she sent one of her friends into the shop where I work to see me a couple of times. I never got to see this friend though, so all I have to go on is what I've been told by my colleges.

Apparently she just asks where I am, then when someone tells her I'm up stairs, she blushes and leaves.

It's weird as hell, but intrigueing nonetheless.

If I was a good flirt I'd have girls all over me by now, or at least more friends that are girls. I'm a sad case.

Not trying to brag, I have the looks, just not the experience.

 

[DSEZ]

for some reason flirting comes naturally to me so if been told
my advice to you is fine some common ground normally for me its music
act confident and be nice but not overly nice and give them a few compliments

I'm not talking about MY lovelife in general, i was asking the fine members of the escapist their opnion.
Welcome to the escapist.
your going to have fun.

I just come out and say it.

"Hello, I find you very attractive, and was wondering if you would like to meet up sometime"

I only ever used it once, but it worked. I don't really flirt though. Too cynical/shy.

Flirting is for people that don't have the confidence to just ask.

Maybe I'm just old-fashioned, or chauvinistic, but if a boy can't ask a girl out in a forthright manner, he doesn't deserve her. And I would personally find it emasculating to be asked out by a girl. Flattering, but emasculating.

EDIT: In case it is not obvious, I approve of Furburt's post.

It can only be done if you're a secret agent. Otherwise its impossible.

 

[Acier]

I tend to like light banter, being nice, keeping eye contact, keeping the conversation about each other (or an interest you both share).

This would work on me.

 

[aseelt]

If you're a guy, go to Askmen.com...or ask your dad.

If you're a girl, go grab Redbook or Cosmopolitan...or ask your mom.

Ugh. Askmen.com is shit. So is fastseduction and the rest of them.

Just try and be yourself.

Flirt by being playful, and comedic.

 

[Darktau]

Making them laugh is one that works for me, depending on how you flirt is what type of girl you will get interested in you, some won't like the jokey types, some will, just try to emphasize what your good at eg. Cracking jokes, or being overly smart, someone will dig it .

 

[uncle-ellis]

Just to make sure.

You're asking about flirting, in a gaming forum.

Or take your top off

Still better than the lonely sad ass that DOESN'T ask for help.

Flirting though, really easy if you're taking the definition of 'Flirting which is "to court triflingly or act amorously without serious intentions; play at love." So if that's what you mean then most women are pretty easy going: be funny, be impressive, and be confident. The other posters have it right.

Looking to hook a girl in a relationship imo is a very different thing than flirting.

Some honesty to break the ice, a lot of relaxation to not sound like an idiot, and a little alcohol to reduce judgment works when I flirt.

One lady I had my eye on who noticed I had my eye on her flatly told me I wasn't her type. Instinctively I responded I didn't date flat chested girls. Cards on the table, we managed to share a few drinks and relaxed hours together before exchanging phone numbers and scheduling a date.

I think you'll find this is the Off topic part of the forum.
And what wrong with that anyway?
