- What are some subtle ways to use body contact for flirting?

December 6, 2009 · Posted in Flirting Body Language 

e.g. Walking past and brushing against his/her arm.

What are some ways that shy people can flirt through body language and contact?

Thankyou! (I will choose best answer soon)

Believe it or not, saying a persons name (don’t overdo it) when speaking to them often raises their awareness to your signals.
"Oh, Hi Mike" then a smile, or "Hey, how was your day Mike?"
Seems silly but you’d be surprised.

Laughing and holding eye contact without boring a hole into them. If you look away for a moment now and then be sure it’s toward something that moved in the room, or a car passing by – not a clock, a watch, or your feet.

Believable and subtle flattery.

Asking them to explain something they know a bit about (play dumb if you need to) Being interested in what they have to say, while smiling and paying attention.

Lightly touching during conversation; elbows, shoulders, hands, the back. Light touching, not grabbing. Like a soft tap here and there when they say something that makes you laugh.

Offer a palm reading once you’ve established a few minutes of conversation, if it’s going well. ;)

Glancing over your shoulder at them when you have some distance, when you’re in a crowd, when you don’t want other people to notice. Being caught looking at them, holding the eye contact for a few seconds then smiling at them is hard to not notice.

Walking by, lightly touching their arm and saying "Excuse me" while smiling.

Holding your hands behind your back with one leg slightly bent, with the front of your body facing them.

There are a ton of websites on this subject.

You can never go wrong with smiling though.

    leaning against them gradually when you are sitting together. if they seem at ease, lean more. if they seem rigid or uncomfortable, stop.References :

    Sometimes just the right smile and a subtle wave is all you need. Then again, a light waist to waist bump and then acting like you didn’t do it works to.References :

    Lots of things. Eyes are the best, trying to hold someones gaze.
    Smiling of course.
    Moving towards that person when you talk to them, that always worked for me.
    When a girl leans into you a bit when she’s laughing or watching a movie. A touch on the arm when you talk.
    A brush on the arm doesn’t hurt.
    The eyes and smiling are the best though!References :

    i would say like teasing or play fighting. joking around and stuff, thats normally the best way. then i would say you could try putting your hand by his or touching his knee. little things like that can cause reactions. touch is an excellent way to flirt, so do it often. also do random shit like "can i have a hug?" hug him lean away and smile =] or even giggle. do things to SHOW you LIKE touching.References :

    Some things that I do to flirt are.
    1. As you walk past the person, look at them and tell them that you just wanted to say that they are handsome/beautiful and keep walking. If they want to chat, they will either follow ya or stop you to chat.
    2. If close to the person and their hand is on a table or the back of a chair, or anywhere that is easily accessible to you, when you go to make a comment or ask a question, touch their hand lightly with the tips of your fingers (this tends to send a light tingling sensation through their hand)
    3. If they catch you looking at them, don’t turn away. Smile at them and slightly nod your head, then turn away. It let’s them know you are interested but not a stalker. They can come to you then.
    4. Winking is ALWAYS bad. LOL. Don’t do it.
    5. If standing close to them or walking past them, brushing their arm with yours very lightly is a good way to get their attention "Say pardon me" after you do it and say it with a smile while looking them in the eye. This will allow you to get their attention and eye contact
    6. Clothing can sometimes be a BIT much when it comes to sexuality. Be modest, but don’t be afraid to accent some things you like about your body. By accenting your best physical attribute in a modest but practical way will allow focus to be drawn to something you have confidence in which in turn will build your confidence when you catch people checking it out. This confidence can build to allow you to start a conversation.
    6. If you catch someone looking at you or checking you out, and you find them attractive, Turn your body slightly in their direction, give them a light smile after looking them in the eye, and then turn back to where you were at before…When turning, you shouldn’t turn more than 5 or 10 degrees…You just want to provide another angle for them to see you at but you don’t want to show them everything right away.

    These are all things I have done before…And it’s worked pretty much every time (Sometimes to well…I upset a guy’s date one night…I thought they were just friends…oops. Either way, it worked…lmao)References :
