Compliments:
Complimenting someone for their looks, behaviour or gestures can be a good start. Compliments are great and we all love feeling good about ourselves. Start by picking out one quality that you genuinely like about them. Say something nice like, 'This is a beautiful colour you are wearing', or 'I love your voice.'
Give a warm smile:
A genuine, warm smile can change the tension between two people sitting across the room. This nonverbal cue is non-threatening and can give a signal of further conversation.
Mirroring:
If you are already in conversation with them you will find yourself mirroring their words, mannerisms and gestures. One can do this intentionally too to show solidarity and interest.
Humour:
Share a funny or witty remark to create a lighthearted atmosphere. Humour is a great way to connect. For example, "Do you have a map? Because I keep getting lost in your eyes – cheesy, right?"
Curiosity:
Express genuine curiosity by asking them interesting questions. Show them that you are interested in getting to know them. For example, if you are flirting online, ask them to share their views or thoughts on something about yourself or anything you might be discussing with them. You can also ask them questions about their life, likes, dislikes and interests.
Engage in light touch:
A subtle touch on the arm during a conversation can convey warmth and interest. Keep it brief and do not repeat it if they are uncomfortable.
Flirtatious jokes:
Share light-hearted, flirtatious jokes to create a playful vibe. Always be sure to use these correctly and stop if you think they don't like it.
