Don't worry if you're afraid to flirt, it takes confidence.To let a guy know you're into him, you don't have to be bold.There are a lot of subtle things you can do to show that you're paying attention to him.Some great online flirting tips can be found in our list.
Step 1: Let the guy know that you're following him on social media.
He probably won't read it if you like 1 of his photos.He'll get the idea that you're into him if you like most of his recent posts.It will be obvious to you that you're into him if you like his old posts.He's on any social media platform.If he's on any of the aforementioned platforms, like his content there.
Step 2: Don't wait to chat with him.
Guys are notoriously oblivious to flirting.If you want to flirt with him, make the first move yourself.Send him a message on social media or text.A private message is a great way to let people know you're interested.You're making a personal online space for just the two of you.You can show him you're interested by starting an online conversation.
Step 3: Ask a thoughtful, quirky question if you want to skip a boring greeting.
Don't message him and say "Hey" or "Hi" because part of flirting is trying to stand out.Asking him something silly or pointing out something unique will get his attention.Send him a close-up photo and ask him what it is.This is a great way to start a conversation.You could say something like, "I am torn between ice cream or sushi for dinner?"Let him know that he's on your mind.You can say, "You'll never guess which song came on the radio!"Did you do karaoke?You can suggest things.I just finished the best book and you'd probably like it.Want to borrow it?
Step 4: It's a good idea to break up text with an emoji or two.
Think of a winking face, smirking face or crazy face if you want to use the obvious hearts and lips.If you've just teased him and want to lighten the mood so he doesn't take it seriously, add a winking face or face blowing a kiss.Your crush might not realize that you're flirting unless you also send flirtatious texts along with it.
Step 5: Push-pull will show you're comfortable with him.
A little teasing shows that you're fun, you don't take yourself too seriously, and you want to play!I had thought you were too good to be true if you asked him whether he likes milk or dark chocolate.We can work on it.
Step 6: This is a good way to say that he's important to you.
You want to know what he thinks about something, right?I've been trying to find some new music.Do you have any suggestions?What do you think about the new restaurant?You could suggest an activity if you're feeling confident and bold.Say, "We should check it out sometime" after asking him about a restaurant.
Step 7: Mention him in a group chat if you have a crush on him.
If the group is talking about something else, bring attention back to him.This shows him that you care about what he thinks.Bring it back if he asks if anyone has seen the latest hit movie.When there is a slight gap in the conversation, say, "Jamal, what were you saying about that movie?"
Step 8: It's a good idea to compliment him on his personality or something.
This is more important than just liking his looks.He will realize that you're paying attention to him if you key in on who he is rather than what he looks like."You're easy to talk to, Patrick, I love how you always know what's going on in the world."
Step 9: A psychological connection is created by this.
We like it when someone calls us by name.If you're messaging each other or leaving a comment, make a point of using his name at least 1 or twice.It suggests that you're friendly with each other if he has a nickname."Rhys, what are you doing tomorrow?""This is an amazing photo, Mateo."
Step 10: Within a few hours, reply if he's messaged you.
If you wait a long time to message him back, he might think that you don't like him or are just not interested in him.If you want to let him know that you care, you should reply within a few minutes.If you're having an online conversation in real-time, this is even more true.
Step 11: These aren't very subtle and have a place in online dating.
Sexting or nude photos can make a shy guy feel uncomfortable if you're trying to flirt.Don't reveal the messages until you're more comfortable with each other.You should only send pics to people you trust.It's easy for that data to be shared and you don't want to compromise yourself.
