subject: Lesbian Dating Tips - How To Flirt Correctly [print this page] Flirting can be a tricky thing, especially if you are new to the lesbian dating game. It can be especially difficult if you do not know the sexual preference of the person you are flirting with. However, with that said, nothing boosts the self-esteem more than having someone flirt with you. Or even better, having someone respond positively to your flirting. Everyone likes to know that other people think that they are attractive. But like anything else, there is a subtle art to flirting well. So here are some tips on how to be a good flirt.
Read her Body Language
There's nothing wrong with flirting with someone you've just met, but you need to be aware of her reactions. Is her body language standoffish? Is she showing signs, such as crossing her arms, to signal that she is not interested? Try to take note of these small little clues. If a woman isn't picking up what you're putting down, it's best to just move on. To continue flirting with her is rude, and may make her feel uncomfortable.
Make Eye Contact
Never underestimate the power of your eyes. Look into your date's eyes when you talk to her. This not only projects confidence, but it also shows that you're interested. Lock your eyes on her a little longer and assess how she response. If she's into you, she'll stare right back.
Get Yourself in Position
It doesn't matter how good you are at giving eye contact, if you're halfway across the room a powerful stare just isn't going to cut it. Get yourself near her. If you're in a group try to sit next to her, or at least across from her. There's no harm in making your move in an obvious fashion to clue her in to the fact that you like her.
Try to Have Some Physical Contact
There's nothing more exciting than a little "accidental" physical contact with your crush. If you're sitting next to each other at a booth, sit close by so that your leg touches hers. Does she move away? It is a good sign if she did not resist and remain close. Touch her arm or her hand lightly during conversation. These small touches will help show your intention that you are interested and at the same time help gauge whether she is on the same wavelength.
Compliment Her
Everyone, especially women, love compliments. Is there anyone who don't like to hear good things about themselves? It is advisable not to talk about physical topics too early into a conversation if you have intention to date a woman. It's better to compliment her outfit, or tell her that something she said was funny or clever. If you're feeling comfortable, you can go a step further and tell her that she looks really pretty tonight, or that she has beautiful eyes. But if you're interested in more than just a hook-up, you should refrain from complimenting her on being "sexy" or "hot." Compliments like these make women think you're only interested in sex.
