5 Fool-Proof Flirting Tips For Attracting Fellas [EXPERT]
Hey good lookin'!
Learn to flirt like a pro with this expert advice!

If you're really into the new guy you just met, you might have some questions about how to show him you like him without being needy, clingy or freaking him out in a way that causes him to head for the hills. How much do you reveal and when?

First, you'll need to decide if you're in one of two categories of people. Some of you "dignity daters" out there are naturally born with skills in the art of flirting. And then there are those of us who are not … And for you, dear reader, we here at Dating with Dignity have come up with an airtight guide with tips on how to show a guy you like him in a way that is not only dignified but incredibly sexy!

This guy could be the man you're out with right now while you're reading this post (Stop it. Put your phone away!), the waiter who's serving you during girls night out, your oldest guy friend, or a stranger at Starbucks. Use these tips, and we think he'll get the picture!

1. Complain about something together. Find something small or insignificant that bothers both of you: maybe the giant deer head on the wall that you both laughed about. Poking fun at the same things helps you get closer, and it also puts you on the same team! Of course, you don't want to turn into "Debbie Downer" and engage him in a negative rant. Rather, this is where your sense of humor blends with making a connection and as a result can create a sense of fun-loving and flirtatious camaraderie.

2. Compliment his new shirt. If you think guys don't like or crave compliments, you are mistaken. Ask him where he got it. If he says he sometimes needs another opinion, offer to be that opinion-giver.

3. Make the most of body language. Make genuine, consistent eye contact. Let him know you're paying attention to what he's saying. Smile often when you're with him (And not at the guy behind him). Smile at him.
