Wiki
Flirting may consist of stylized gestures, language, body language, postures, and physiologic signs, some of which are also part of foreplay. Among these, at least in Western society, are:

Eye contact
Casual touches
Footsie, the "feet under the table" practice
Smiling suggestively
"Protean" signals, such as touching one's hair
Sending and receiving notes, poems, mixtapes, or written music
Friendly teasing
Winking
Constant glances

What's footsie?!

But if were to reach over and give his hand a squeeze, hold it etc...what if he didn't want and drew away, I'd be rather embarrassed....

"The act of flirting in which one secretly touches the feet or legs of another with one's own, as under a table."

"Friendly teasing" is interesting... works more with shy people, maybe

Flirting for most people is a natural thing that occurs when you really like someone. It's kind of hard to tell someone how to do it as everybody is different and if you just adopt somebody else's technique it may come across as forced or unnatural:rolleyes: .

I think though, you can't go far wrong with general friendliness and taking an interest in the guy you like when chatting to him. Try to smile a lot even if you'e feeling nervous as this is always attractive and can help ease the other person. Other than those basic tips I suggest that you just try and be yourself and do what comes naturally

Hope this helped :biggrin:
Flirting for me involves er.. violence.. I dont know why, I wish it didnt.. Lots of guys dont seem to get it :P Some do, but then I would like to be able to act less violently, but it doesnt seem to work..ever.. Lol. Ah well.... I am jealous of girls who can "flirt" though, as I just feel like an idiot

Yeh when i like a guy i can be rather aggressive and constantly hit and punch them, i feel quite sorry for my boyfriend sometimes because i can get rather violent, but i love him really.

And i think it is true if a guy picks on you then he likes you (ok only relevant to school situation sorry i forgot ur 20)

just do things that could be intepreted either way like when you walk past him rub up against him, that could be seen as flirting or an accident, if he looks at you funny and asks what your doing then you know he aint interested but if he smiles then ur in.

I'm really bad at doing the rubbing past thing...last time I tried I ended up walking into the guy, tripping and ending up on the floor on top of him...at least it looked like an accident.
So if I'm unsure hand squeezing etc is a no-no?
