Say you’re out and about with your gal pals and they all seem to be able to get men talking to them except for you. Why is it that we girls even in this day and age still aren’t allowed to be direct when it comes to chatting men up? Keep reading as we give you a few flirtatious techniques and surefire lines that will get men finding you irresistible.

PICK HIM UP IN LESS THAN 30 SECONDS

Any number of things you can say or do will clue guys in and let him know you’re interested. Check out some of our tips to pick him up as quickly as possible!

Flirtatious Eyes: The quickest and easiest way is with eye contact. Sliding a gaze over to your object of desire and then moving away is a well-known flirting technique. Come back after 10-15 seconds and gaze at him again, meeting his eyes. Hold his gaze and then look away. Men rarely resist a woman who isn’t afraid to openly admire them.

Accidental Trip: This is an almost guaranteed way of getting a guy to talk to you. Walk past him and accidentally trip into his lap or fall into him! The difference between a man and a woman doing this is that when you’re a woman, it can seem charming whereas if a man did this to you, he’d probably get a slap in the face!

Just Say Hi: It may sound simple but when it comes to approaching guys, the simplest way is sometimes the best. Just say ‘Hi’. He’ll usually be so glad that he didn’t have to make the first move that he’ll pick up the conversation from there.

PICK HIM UP IN UNDER 1 MINUTE

If you’ve been eyeing someone or been talking to him for awhile yet don’t know how to let him know you’re interested, here are some ways that will instantly let him know that you’re ready and available to him.

Inviting Gaze: Men can be intuitive if you send out the right signals. When you want to capture his attention, speak in your normal tone but put on a seductive and inviting look in your eyes. Let him connect and know you want him with your eyes but keep your conversational tone and subject. This can create a real sense of flirtatiousness between the two of you!

    Well, I must be doing something wrong. Have tried all of the above, and the guys have “turned green,” and the landing was less than pleasant because he moved.But yeah, thanks for the tips. They didn’t work for me. One even went as far to tell me, he was “uncomfortable.”

    Tripping?… Seriously? I would consider a girl drunk or clumsy if they ever did that to me… I would strongly advise girls to not do that one…

    Well done… nicely written and on point… If and when I see something I like… I observe it to utilise the best approach, then I set my goal, tantalize it, mystify it and then make it putty in my hands… LOL…

    Though there had been a few complicated cases, but in the end, when they are that complicated to begin with, does one really want to get to know them any better when they are already too much hard work…
