    Hi there,

    So basically, I'm a 21 year old female and am absolutely USELESS at flirting :( Would really appreciate any tips you may have!

    To set a background - I went to an all-girls school and was always pretty shy around guys... I never had any male friends. Now since I started college, got part-time jobs etc I have a good few male friends and I love them to bits.

    The only thing is, they all appear to see me as a friend (except for maybe one or two guys I've known over the last 4 years of college, but unfortunatly I just never felt attracted to them).
    I know most people think I'm a "lovely" girl and "fun to be around" etc but I don't seem to give off any flirty vibes - I still (really childishly) seem to clam up when I'm talking to guys I fancy. It's not often i fancy anyone but when I do it follows the same cycle - I fancy them for ages but am never able to say/do anything about it and then just give up... I'm generally a mature person but when it comes to stuff like this I just freak out... The only experience I've had is kissing random guys in nightclubs and I'm fed up of it tbh!

    Sorry if this is a bit waffle-y but I guess what I'm trying to ask is can anyone give me advice on flirting with guys? There's a coupla guys I fancy at the minute that I've known a year or two and would like to try being a bit more flirty and see if I get a reaction...

    I may be overthinking this a bit lol! Anyway, thanks in advance :)

    Its very hard to tell someone through a thread how to flirt. Basically if there is a guy you like dont try get friendly with him as in treat him as a friend. If you have his number and are texting him dont reply everytime- delay between replies.

    In a night club if dancing give a guy a few stares, maybe catch his eye for a second and turn away. dont over do it as you'll look a bit of a nut case.

    again you really can only learn by watching other girls in nightclubs.
