Flirting is Part of the Romantic Game

Have you giggled at a joke or the guy’s gaze for a few seconds longer than you would usually, if so, then you’re flirting.

Flirting is the process of making playful, romantic or sexual overtures towards another. Often this is the first initial contact and a way of expressing romantic or sexual interest in another person flirting is also a way of discovering if someone is also attracted to you. When you flirt you will be using conversation, body language and physical contact.

Using body language to get your message across:

Observing others you will notice the following, and once you are ware of you will look for it in a potential person you are interested in.

• A couple in a conversation will shift their positions so that they mimic each other. Their posture is generally relaxed.

• Their breathing patterns will shift as their conversation moves on.

• The volume of the voices will match each others.

Once you’ve observed this in other people you will apply this knowledge to your own contact with another person and will observe similar patterns in your own contact with another person.

If you get to know body language you will be able to gauge how your date really feels about you. Body language consists of flirtatious gestures, eye contact, facial expressions, and body posture.

Women tend to send out more sexual body language signals than men. Body language cues to watch out for, you can also gauge by the speed that they enter your personal space, if very quickly that means that they are more aggressive and you might not want to pursue the flirtation further.

If the arms are crossed, then that is not a good sign, it generally means that he or she is not interested and it’s time for you to back off.
