Dearest MF Pals, Particulary the Americans. Teach me about flirting, I am crap at it. I am also British which makes me quite reserved, I usually get a few drinks down me and launch myself on the unsuspecting guy.


Great pick up lines that have worked for you etc?


cheers

    You're a woman. Throwing yourself at them will probably get you laid 9/10 times.

    I love all of those panda things, I'm gonna say the shin one for definite.

    What that person said about Newcastle is offensive but also true :-) (lots of male sluts here, and lots of drink girls)

    I would suggest flirting with people that you don't actually fancy, just to see how it flows, then when you start getting good at it, unleash.

    Also flirting is more about your body language than your chat up lines, practice makes perfect.

    I know this might be unhelpful, but don't try to force it too much. It'll just sound fake.
    What I think works regardless is giving a genuine compliment. Not something cheesy or forced like "You have beautiful eyes", but something that you actually mean, something that you actually notice. Also, if you're awkward, call yourself out on it ad laugh about it.
    For instance, if a guy has nice eyelashes, but you think it might sound creeperish, you could say something like "Hey, this is going to be super-awkward, but I think you have great eyelashes." then throw a great smile, and continue with "Is that creepy, or what? Hahaaha... my name is So-And-So, by the way."

    Also, I think it's good to know what your best asset is and use it accordingly. For instance, I think I have a welcoming, kind smile, so I pull it out in any awkward social situation and follow up with a "Man, I'm so awkward.. Teach me how to be cool!" and a little laugh.

    We Americans sort of appreciate your 'Load and Launch' method of flirting.

    At least I do lol.

    ^^This^^ I think guys appreciate it when a girl isn't trying too hard and can laugh at herself when she does something embarrassing.

    Hey I'm a bit lacking in the boobs department and I have no trouble flirting!

    It's all in the eye contact, and then the smile, and then the awesome convo and then leave them wanting more (aka Look, Arouse, Interest, Disturb) :P
