    Scenario is man is attracted to woman, they know each other through mutual friends, hang out regularly, chat a bit and she seems a bit flirty, he likes her but wants to play it cool.
    What should he do?
    How is a man supposed to 'flirt' with a woman?!, how can a man flirt?
    Compliment her on imaginary things, ie "get your hair done?"...Ok no laughing it was only a suggestion.
    Ladies, how will you let a guy know that your into him?
    What are the body language tells aside from playing with hair (BTW every woman i know does that, with potential suitor or not).
    Thoughts appreciated.

    "Hey, how would you like to go for a drink later?"

    Is it really that hard, people?


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 107 ✭✭canavanbn@hotma


    Yeah, but you want to suss things out first over say the course of a few weeks.
    I dont want to become a friend, but i'm going by the fools rush in mantra!
    Need to gauge if she is into first before I take the plunge!

    Talk to her???

    Have a random conversation, if it goes well she'll be more inclined to go out for a drink.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 568 ✭✭✭newgrange


    Look at her when you speak to her.
    Ask her about herself and listen to her answers, ask questions based on her answers showing you are actually listening (and interested).
    Make her laugh.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 43,045 ✭✭✭✭Nevyn


    Best way to flatter a person is to give them your full notice and show them
    that you are intrested in them by listening to them and asking them questions
    about themselves, thier dreams, desires, dislikes.

    Get into a converstaion just the two of you , and if they place is too crowded
    to really talk suggest meeting up for a chat and a coffee away from the noise
    and the rest of the gang.

    this is your second thread on this in a a number of days.

    what happened the last time?

    are you just going through random questions until you get an answer you want?

    if you have no intention of being her friend, then i expect all you want to do is fúck her. why not just walk up to her and give her some money and ask her for sex in return.

    or, you could actually try and be friends, and stop p[laying stupid childish games, acting like a twat and start acting like normal human being.

    honestly, im beginging to think you only log into boards by accident, rather than by a any sort of cogniscient effort.

    I'm assuming he meant that he didn't want to get stuck as 'just' a friend. Easy thing to slip into. And wouldn't you ban someone if they posted a personal attack like that?

    OP, best bet is go straight for it, arrange to meet up with her alone, drinks, coffee, even a meal, just not the cinema (involves not talking to her for 2 hours).

    approch the target mate and ask her loudly: "Hey baby, you lookin' for some a dis!?"

    then start rubbing your nipples in first a clockwise, then anti-clockwise direction, while you lick your lips and perform violent pelvic thrusts.

    this will confuse the female into accepting you as a mate.

    i saw it on discovery channel.

    no but its the second post asking the same thing in around 3 days from the same user.
    i believe he pretty much got the same answer from people the first time around.
    i dont understand why we need another thread from the same user on the same topic again.
    do you?

    not all useful advice consists of 'you are a lovely person, good things will happen for you'.
    sometimes a good kick up the arse is needed, and i will happily give that kick where i feel it is needed, and i will have empathy where i feel that is needed.

    there is no personal insult in my post, merely my own straight forward opinion that the OP get a grip. you may feel otherwise, and perfectly entitled to feel so.

    now, its apparent the OP doesnt want to get stuck in a 'friends' rut, and thats fine, but how the hell do you go out and have a sexual relationship (after all, thats pretty much what he wants) with someone if you cant even make the gesture of friendship?

    if you find out, tell me how its done...
    we can bottle it and sell it.

    Keep eye contact (don't turn away first); tease her; give her mixed signals to make her wonder whether you like her or not. Don't tell her "i like you" straight....

    Impress her with manly tasks such as lifting heavy weights, punching weaker people and using power tools!

    Nah but really most flirting is natural. It comes to you naturally once you stop worrying. It's mostly in smiling, making excuses to touch her (something as simple as patting her on the head (IN A JOKING WAY!!!) if she says something silly). But yeah, smile, pay attention to her, sit beside her and have your face close to hers when you're talking to her.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 568 ✭✭✭newgrange


    Touching her on the forearm is safer. Touching a person's head is actually fairly high up on the intimacy scale. Many women would not like it from a stranger.

    Are you sugesting he actually becomes a woman in order to gain insight?! :D

    Straight forward seems good. At least you won't have to worry about it for long. Plus it may make you seem confident.

    Seriously? I find that hard to believe.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 9,230 ✭✭✭OLDYELLAR


    Just talk to her and when you ask her a question wait and give her time to answer and dont just talk over her , nothing worse that that!
    No real rocket science , you`ll know if she goes to the loo and avoids talking to ya when she comes back shes not really interested but is she does then chances are shes finding you interesting and liking talking to ya.

    So feed her with drink...oh yeah and a talk ratio of her 90% and you 10% is good....especially if loaded with validation

    problem?

    Oops phrased it a bit weird I guess..no offence meant, I actually agreed with you on the toilet thing.

    Its just that posting replies on threads like these seem to be endless and the answers will always be the same. Maybe a seduction thread somewhere would cut down the PI's as something like "How do I get a girl/guy/transgender to like me" is more of a personal issue for a lot of people.

    yea perhaps , The easiest thing though and one proven to work is just go up and speak to them , no real way around that , ya cant get to know someone to ask them out etc etc until ya speak to them.


  • Closed Accounts Posts: 42 U$ername


    Done...Seduction thread complete.
