Flirting With Confidence

You may think that flirting is not for you. But it's all part of the dating game.

Flirting is absolutely ageless and everyone does it consciously or not. Being aware of a simple touch on the arm in the middle of a conversation to make a point, or a lovely smile in response to his conversation or combining that smile with the way you lean in towards your man can be very empowering.

Try resting your chin on your hand and shoulder leaning towards him. We normally do this without even realizing we are doing it. But how many times have you done this consciously when showing interest in a conversation. This is called mirroring and means you are in tune or agreement with whoever you are talking to.

If you feel self-conscious about flirting, even subtle flirting, practice at home in front of a mirror. Basically it comes down to body language and not just confined to women. Yes men flirt as well. This is telling your date his or her conversation is interesting to you.

Consciously using your body language in a genuine way is a subtle way to tell him you're interested in him without actually physically saying the same thing. This is actually very clever as it avoids putting yourself in a possible embarrassing situation.

Duplicating body mannerisms at times (not all the time) will give the feeling that you are both in tune with each other. It works too. Try it on a friend without them knowing of course.

Compliments - everyone loves receiving a compliment especially if they are genuine. Be careful not to overdo it though. Using your smile opens up your face and by using his name sprinkled throughout the conversation will encourage a more intimate atmosphere that whispers interest.

Running your fingers through your hair while you are talking is a very feminine angle of saying, "look at me". It brings his attention to you immediately and of course wearing perfume is always a winner. Few men can resist that. As always, the key is subtlety.

Flirting is fun especially when all the right chemistry is happening. You know, it doesn't matter what your age is. In fact an older woman can get away with a lot more. The more confident you are with yourself the more you will use your life experiences to gauge your partner's responses and to flirt appropriately.

So go out and have fun and start living.
