Some people tend to think of flirting as a young and childish thing to do, but it’s so much more than that. I learned how to flirt with a man through books and experience and came to realize how fun it really is. I also learned that it doesn’t matter whether you have been in a relationship for many years or you are just flirting to attract a man’s attention, but flirting has been around since the beginning and makes both men and women feel good about themselves.

Flirting can really just be described as a form of teasing. We tease the other person to show that we like them and are attracted to them. Flirting with someone before or during a conversation is a great indicator of how interested in you they really are. If you are initiating the flirting towards someone you like and they aren’t reciprocating, then you will know they are not interested in you like that.

When a man and a woman are happy to flirt together, there is a connection of positive energy. They will both be confident within themselves to flirt with the other person by knowing that they are really attracted to each other.

So with that being said, confidence plays a huge part in being able to successfully flirt with a man. So make sure you are already comfortable within yourself with who you are, how you look and your feelings towards yourself and others.

The most obvious aspect when looking at how to flirt with a man is your body language. This is also the most widely used form of flirting. Some examples of women using body language to flirt are tilting of their head, playing with their hair, smiling a lot during conversations, touching the man gently, leaning in close to say something quietly and even holding a glance at him longer than usual with a smile on her face.

Using words that tease the other person is another important and obvious form of flirting. As long as the other person can tell you are only joking by hearing your laugh or seeing you smile after you say it. For example you might say to someone you like: “It was nice of you to call me”. Then they respond “But I only just met you”. Then you say “I know, I was looking into the future”.

That is an open invitation to the guy you are interested in getting to know him, without being pushy. He can take it as a joke and not say anything, or he could join in and say something in regard to getting your number. This is flirting in order to let someone you know that you like them and you are open to start a relationship if they are interested.

Flirting with words can also be reaffirming something nice the guy does for you or says to you. This is an example of a couple who is already in a successful long term relationship and they just like to keep up the excitement towards each other. She might say “Thank you honey for washing the dishes this morning”. Then he might say “You’re welcome, I enjoy doing things for you that make you feel good”. Then he looks at her with a smirk on his face. That conversation can then go in any direction, but they will both be smiling at the end of it.

This is different types of conversation showing playful teasing between a man and a woman. If they are still open to continue the flirting, there are many other things which could be incorporated from there. You could then add body language as well, while continuing the playful teasing words.

Whether you are new to flirting, or have been flirting for a while, knowing how to flirt with a man is essential to continuing on the fun and excitement in a long term successful relationship. If you don’t have a relationship, then practice on those new guys you meet up with for a potential relationship. If he likes you, then he will be happy to flirt with you too. Flirting is a lot of fun when you get into the practice of it and gives your partner an opportunity to have fun with it also. So make sure you add some flirting towards the guy you like every day, regardless of how old you are.
