I’ll admit that I’m a hopeless romantic, but I’ve never thought flirting was one of my core strengths. I have girlfriends that attract the opposite sex like bees to honey; just give them a minute and a good looking guy, and they’re off and running. (I laugh because I don’t even think it takes that long.) I used to dread going out with them because I knew if I spotted a guy I liked, they would take him first.<\/p>\n
The art of flirting is such a lost art. I think it’s because most of us fear rejection. If we take the time to flirt with someone and they reject us, it hurts our pride and ego. We feel unwanted and unloved, and we eventually resolve to never do it again, or at least not until the other person likes us first. It’s our way of preventing the pain of feeling rejected.<\/p>\n
Most people think flirting is looking at a person until they succumb to your creepy stare, but that will drive the person away faster than anything. Other people think that flirting is about the flip of your hair (and while this is flirty, it’s not the end-all). There are other ways to get his attention without even trying.<\/p>\n
Flirting is so much fun, even when it isn’t one of your strengths. I’ve listed some of my favorite old-school ways to flirt that are less obvious and won’t cost you anything other than your time and patience with the process.<\/p>\n
#1. What You Wear Makes a Difference<\/p>\n
Most people don’t realize that your clothes speak before you do. Your clothes say a lot about you when you enter the room. When you feel good, you dress the part; when you don’t feel good, you don’t dress the part, hoping no one will notice you.<\/p>\n

Clothes are like our secret silent language, which makes it a great way to flirt with that special someone without saying a word to them. I recommend soft colors that signal romance and fitted clothing that allow him to admire your curves. If clothes are the first thing he sees from you, why not make a great first impression?<\/p>\n
#2. Change Your Tone (of Voice)<\/p>\n
Voice is the most underrated way of flirting. Have you ever heard a woman who has either a high-pitched, child-like voice, or a woman with a super sulky voice that screams of seduction? There is something about their voices that drive men wild.<\/p>\n
Unless you are a professional speaker, singer or other professional who uses their voice a lot, you are probably not giving your voice the tender, loving care that it needs. But this is such a simple and cost-free way to flirt with the man of your dreams. It’s certainly worth it to train yourself to speak in a super sexy tone.<\/p>\n
#3. Be a Good Friend<\/p>\n
This is another easy way to flirt. Think about all the guys who were friendly and open to you when you were a bit lost or shy. The friendlier they were to you, the more you thought about it and felt good after meeting them.<\/p>\n
This has a huge magnifying effect on men who envision their future wife being an open and friendly person, not just to him, but also to others around him as well. You will be someone they can’t wait to take home to mama.<\/p>\n

#4. Kill Him With Kindness<\/p>\n
I meet so many men who are attracted to kind and generous women. Men think that if a woman is kind and generous to them, she’ll also be kind and generous to their family as well. This doesn’t mean she’s a doormat, but that she has a kind heart and is generous to everyone she meets, which is incredibly sexy to men.<\/p>\n
#5. Play Miss Congeniality, IRL<\/p>\n
I’m reminded of this flirty technique from my sweetheart who loves women who epitomize “Miss Congeniality.” He says there is nothing sexier and flirtier than a woman who loves life, and I agree with him. I love people who are full of life, as they attract all types of people. Don’t worry if you’re not the “Miss Congeniality” type; as long as you are loving and living life to the fullest extent, men will be at your feet in no time.<\/p>\n
Hopefully I’ve helped those of you who aren’t super flirty, but are still looking to attract men. Don’t get me wrong, eye contact is still probably the number one way to flirt, but my purpose, for those of you who are a little shy, is to use less obvious techniques.<\/p>\n
