The Art of Flirting March 14, 2012, 11:21 a.m.

We all love attention from the opposite sex (or same sex, for that matter). The thrill of knowing someone is interested in you is hard to beat. Whether you notice a glimpse in your direction, a pick-up line in a bar or perhaps even a full on raunchy dance between the two of you; flirting can be ever so exciting.

A cheeky smile can get you everywhere, it can pave the way to winning the attention of the cute girl you’ve had your eye on. There are some men who naturally have the suave and sophisticated chat-up routine down to a tee. Then there are some that stumble a little and crack a joke to hid the awkwardness; this can sometimes be endearing and you’ll be surprised to hear that some girls find this more attractive. No one likes an overly cocky guy. However, there are some men that literally don’t know where to begin. Here, we will try to enlighten you on the techniques you can apply when getting your flirt on.

You might’ve heard this all before, in which case, why haven’t you acted on it? Ditch the sleaze guys. It is not attractive and it doesn’t impress. Few women find the constant sexual references and innuendo an actual turn-on. It’s perfectly acceptable with the lads, but most ladies prefer to be wooed rather than overtly picked-up. Women much prefer a slightly nervous approach to a dose of over-confidence.

So, the basics. Blimey, where do we start? A touch of confidence, an honest smile and a sense of humour is key. Use your eyes as a way of introduction. You can really sense a person through their eyes, say the escorts London. They can detail warmth, kindness, a cheeky personality; they are the window to the soul. Corny, but true. Look her in the eyes and flash her a cool and natural smile. Locking eyes across a crowded room might be the stuff of romantic films, but when you hold someones gaze for a short moment it triggers a connection.

Charm her. Not by putting on a persona, but by being yourself. She will notice your try-hard attempts and knock you back. The real you is who you are, don’t try and hide that. Genuine guys are real gems when you find one; if you like the girl, make sure she knows it and be honest with her.

Don’t frantically search for words to say. The most important tool to flirting with the opposite sex is body language. This doesn't mean you can ditch all we just said about being yourself and telling tales to impress. Just don’t worry about telling silly jokes or divulging lots of information. Relax and allow your body to do the talking. When you relax, your true feelings are visible and they will prevail when trying to impress.

Finally, meeting someone new is fun; relax and go with the flow. Flirting is something to enjoy and revel in. Yes, you’ll be nervous and unsure how she will react, but how can she resist such a charming man when presented with one. Just relish the opportunity to get your flirt on and remember all that we’ve taught you. You can always try out your techniques with one of the delightful escort girls we have here at Chic. They will be more than happy to help you out.
