Let’s face it, no matter who you are (if single) there is that certain person in your life who catches your eye or gives you an unexplainable feeling. That’s all well and good, but there is a small problem. You’re still single. All of us have been there at some time or another and it is not exactly fun. If you had things your way, this person who has your attention would be yours. That’s where the road blocks come into play.

No matter what the situation, there always seems to be an issue with taking that person out on a date, or even just walking up to them to say hello. A lot of us guys wonder; how on earth did he manage to ‘score’ her? Some of you girls may ask; what does he see in her? I have been there, you have been there and we all have. Well people like you and I are lucky for the internet. No matter how much spam there is out there, there are people who are good natured and want to help people like you and me out. I am no dating guru but I have listed 5 tips to flirting, the starting steps of attraction.

#1: Be Sincere If you're going to flirt, you need to be real about it. Anyone can spot a fake a mile away. If you're feeling insecure about your flirting skills, don't start with your secret crush since the 10th grade. Begin in a situation you are most comfortable with. If you're going to pay compliments to someone, be sincere about them. Really mean what you are saying and your results will be well worth the effort.

#2: Smile A smile is the simplest form of flattery. It shows that you are genuinely interested in the other person, and for that one single moment they are the only thing on your mind. Never underestimate the power of a smile.

#3: Touch Touch is an obvious sign of interest. Used correctly it can be a subtle way of getting a person's undivided attention. Rest a hand on their arm or on their knee when you are talking. Engage in activities that promote touch, such as dancing. Just be careful not to appear too flirtatious. The last thing you want to do is send the wrong signals.

#4: Hold Eye ContactHow do you make the object of your affection weak in the knees? Hold that meaningful gaze for just a few seconds longer than normal. Show them you're not one to turn away from something great!

#5: Be Interested In Them Want to know if they are worthy of your undivided attention? Find out more by asking them open-ended questions about themselves. Show off your flirting skills by showing them you are actually listening to what they are saying.

Down at the end of this blog I have noted some very helpful websites with excellent credibility to further help people out. Some topics range from dating ideas, 7 magic words, 12 simple rules of dating, and much more. I believe that these are very helpful. I can’t guarantee that these tools will get you everything you want, but they will definitely get you on the right track.
